Bermondsey’s gardens and courtyards vary hugely, from compact plots near London Bridge to wider outdoor spaces around Rotherhithe and Surrey Quays. We design and build summer houses that suit how you live—home office, gym, studio or a quiet retreat. Expect thoughtful layouts, clean detailing and durable materials that stand up to London weather. We’re also happy to align the look with local character found around Bermondsey Street and the riverside warehouse conversions.
As experienced summer houses builders bermondsey area homeowners rely on, we’re used to working with converted warehouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments with shared boundaries. That means careful planning for access, neighbour considerations and keeping disruption low. We can match period properties with traditional styles, or complement contemporary developments with sleek cladding and large glazing. Whether you’re in SE1 or SE16, we tailor the build to your garden’s proportions and privacy needs.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and a clear design proposal, followed by foundations, the structure, weatherproofing, then electrics and interior finishing. We can include insulation options for year-round comfort, plus lighting, sockets and data points for working from the garden. You’ll get straightforward timelines, tidy working practices and consistent communication from start to handover. Local homeowners choose us for craftsmanship, practical advice and a build that feels properly integrated with the property.
We’re familiar with the London Borough of Southwark’s expectations and typical Bermondsey access challenges, including narrow side returns and controlled parking near Tower Bridge. Ground conditions can vary, so we specify the right foundation type after assessing levels, drainage and load requirements. For properties close to Maltby Street Market or Bermondsey Spa Gardens, we plan deliveries and waste removal to keep the street clear. The result is a smoother build with fewer surprises.

Costs in Bermondsey typically range from about £6,000–£12,000 for a small, uninsulated summer house with basic finishes, and £12,000–£30,000+ for larger bespoke builds with insulation, electrics and higher-end cladding. Pricing depends on size, glazing, roof type, access constraints in SE1/SE16, and the foundation specification. We provide an itemised quote after a site survey and design brief.
Most builds take around 1–3 weeks on site once materials are ready, with bespoke designs and insulated garden rooms often closer to 2–4 weeks. Timescales vary with foundation curing time, electrical works, interior finishing, and any made-to-order doors or glazing. Access can also affect pace, especially for Victorian terraces with narrow side passages. We confirm a schedule before starting and keep you updated throughout.
Many summer houses fall under permitted development, but rules depend on height, proximity to boundaries, total garden coverage and whether the property is listed or in a conservation area. Southwark may also have specific considerations for flats, maisonettes or properties with restrictive covenants. We provide planning advice, check constraints, and can recommend a lawful development certificate where appropriate for peace of mind before building.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering workmanship and structural integrity of the build, including the main frame, fixings and installation standards. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to components such as doors, windows, membranes, cladding systems and electrical products. We also offer clear aftercare guidance to keep timber protected and joints weather-tight. If any snagging issues arise, we address them promptly within the agreed terms.
You can choose traditional timber styles with tongue-and-groove cladding, or contemporary designs using composite cladding, clean lines and larger glazing. Roof options include felt, EPDM rubber or modern standing-seam looks, depending on design and budget. Inside, we can add insulation, plasterboard, timber lining, built-in storage and durable flooring. We’ll guide you on finishes that suit Bermondsey’s property styles and your intended use.
