Most pergola projects in Clapham fall between £2,500 and £5,000, depending on size, materials and complexity. Simple freestanding timber frames can start from around £1,500, while larger metal builds, attached pergolas, or designs with a canopy and integrated lighting can reach £8,000. Site access, ground preparation and the type of fixings needed for patios or decking also influence the overall budget.
A typical pergola installation takes 2–4 days from start to finish. The exact timescale depends on whether it’s freestanding or attached, the footing method (post bases, concrete pads, or fixing to existing hardstanding), and any extras such as a canopy, screens or electrics for lighting. Poor weather can affect curing times for concrete. We confirm a realistic schedule after the site survey and measurements.
Many garden pergolas are usually permitted development, particularly if they’re open-sided and within height limits, but rules can vary by property type and location. Flats, maisonettes, listed buildings and conservation areas may have additional restrictions, and leasehold agreements can also apply. We’ll discuss your design and help you check the relevant guidance for Lambeth or Wandsworth before installation, so there are no surprises later.
Yes. Our pergola installations come with a 10-year workmanship warranty, covering issues caused by installation such as structural fixings, alignment and stability. We also use quality, fit-for-purpose materials and recommend appropriate treatments or powder-coated finishes to improve longevity. Natural movement in timber and normal weathering are expected over time, but we’ll advise on maintenance to keep everything performing and looking its best.
We build wooden pergolas (ideal for a warm, classic look) and metal pergolas for a sharper, contemporary finish. Options include attached or freestanding structures, slatted roofs, privacy screens, and pergolas with canopy systems for adjustable shade. Many clients also add climbing-plant supports, integrated seating zones or lighting-ready cable routes. We’ll guide you through what suits your garden size, sun path and the style of your home.
