Bromley BR1 & BR2 · Pergolas

Pergolas in Bromley

Turn a deck or patio into an outdoor room.

As local pergola builders, we build custom pergolas across Bromley, sized to the space they cover: a whole deck, a patio corner or a narrow side return. Our featured job is an 8m x 4m pergola built on site over a new composite deck, in Beckenham on the side towards Bromley.

Your garden, considered

Pergolas planned with the deck or patio below

A pergola works best when it is planned with the surface underneath it. On Carmel's job the old deck came out, a new frame went in, and the custom 8m x 4m pergola went up on site at the same stage, before the new composite decking was laid over the frame.

Not every pergola covers a big deck. At Jane's home in Thornton Heath we built a custom pergola over the side return, turning an awkward passage beside the house into a covered space, as part of a four-day job that also included French drains and regrouting.

Larger Bromley gardens, in Bickley, Sundridge Park and Bromley Park, can have room to put a pergola at the far end of the lawn rather than by the house. In Barnes we built a custom pergola over grey composite decking at the end of a garden, with sleeper flowerbeds boxed in around it on three levels.

Materials & possibilities

Where should your pergola go?

The position changes the size, the fixings and how you will use it. These are the three layouts we build most.

01

Over a deck

An outdoor room

Built with the deck so the posts and boards line up, like Carmel's 8m x 4m pergola over 50m² of composite decking.

02

Over a side return

Use a forgotten space

A pergola along the side of the house turns a passage into a covered spot. Jane's in Thornton Heath was custom made for the side return.

03

At the end of the garden

A destination seat

A pergola over a deck at the far end gives you a place to walk to, as in Barnes, where sleeper flowerbeds surround it on three levels.

Building a pergola into a new deck

When a pergola stands on or beside a new deck, the posts are set out before the boards go down, so they sit on solid footings rather than on the deck boards. That keeps the pergola rigid and lets the decking be cut neatly around each post.

Custom pergola and composite decking in Beckenham

Carmel's back garden in Beckenham, towards Bromley, had an old deck across the back of the house. We removed it, fitted around 50m² of new composite decking with a step, built a custom 8m x 4m pergola on site over it and fitted around nine closeboard panels down the side, in about 10 days for £18,000 including VAT.

A few useful answers

Pergolas in Bromley: your questions

Still deciding? Tell us about your garden and we can talk through the next step.

Read our warranty terms
Should I build the pergola and deck at the same time?

It usually works best. On Carmel's job the new deck frame and the pergola went up together, before the composite boards were laid.

How big can a pergola be?

As big as the space allows. Carmel's custom pergola is 8m x 4m and covers a deck across the back of the house.

Can a pergola go over a side return?

Yes. At Jane's home in Thornton Heath we built a custom pergola over the side return, costing £3,000 as part of a £7,500 job.

Do you build pergolas at the end of the garden?

Yes. In Barnes we dug out concrete and built a custom pergola over grey composite decking, framed by sleeper flowerbeds, for £9,000 including VAT.

What is the nearest pergola to Bromley you have built?

Carmel's 8m x 4m pergola and Oliver's clear-roof pergola, both in Beckenham, are under two miles from Bromley town centre.

How long does a pergola and deck project take?

Carmel's pergola, 50m² composite deck and fencing took around 10 days. A pergola on its own, like Oliver's, took three days.

Will I need planning permission for a pergola in Bromley?

Not usually. Keep it under 2.5m high if it is within 2m of a boundary, and we will check with Bromley Council if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
