A well-built summer house adds practical space for work, hobbies or relaxing without extending your home. In BR7, we design and build structures that suit the character of Chislehurst, from classic looks near St Nicholas Church to modern garden rooms close to Chislehurst Common. Every build can include insulation, electrics and a smart interior finish. You get a space that feels like a natural part of your garden, not an afterthought.
Chislehurst homeowners often have generous plots with large detached houses, Victorian villas and other period properties. We tailor proportions, rooflines and cladding to complement older brickwork and mature planting, while keeping the footprint efficient. If you’re in Elmstead, Mottingham or near Sidcup borders, we’ll plan access and deliveries to minimise disruption. Our designs work for everything from quiet home offices to entertaining spaces.
We start with a site visit, discuss how you’ll use the space, then provide a clear specification and build programme. Foundations, framing, insulation options, electrics and interior finishing are all handled by qualified trades with tidy working practices. We give practical planning advice and confirm what’s needed before work begins. Local clients choose us for consistent communication, careful detailing and a finish that lasts.
Gardens in the London Borough of Bromley can vary from level lawns to sloped plots with mature trees, so we choose the right foundation type and drainage approach. Access and parking can be tight on some residential roads, so we schedule deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also consider proximity to boundaries, overlooking and existing outbuildings when setting out. If needed, we’ll guide you through Bromley’s rules and any conservation considerations.

Costs in Chislehurst vary with size, specification and groundworks. As a guide, a small, uninsulated timber summer house may start around £4,000–£7,000. A mid-size insulated garden room with electrics and upgraded glazing is often £10,000–£20,000. Larger bespoke builds with premium cladding, extensive interior finishing and complex foundations can reach £25,000–£40,000+. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Typical build time is 1–2 weeks for a straightforward summer house once materials are ready. Insulated, fully finished garden rooms with electrics commonly take 2–4 weeks, depending on drying times, access and the level of interior work. Foundations and ground preparation can add several days, especially on sloped plots or where drainage is required. Bespoke joinery, large glazing and custom cladding can extend lead times and installation time.
Many summer houses fall under permitted development, provided they meet limits on height, location and overall garden coverage. However, rules can change if you’re close to a boundary, in a conservation area, or if the building is intended for sleeping accommodation. In the London Borough of Bromley we check the key criteria, advise on positioning, and can help you prepare details if an application is needed. We always recommend confirming before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering workmanship and structural integrity of the build, including framing, fixings and installation of key components. Manufacturer warranties also apply to specific products such as doors, windows, membranes and electrical components where relevant. The warranty is valid when the summer house is used as intended and maintained sensibly (for example, keeping gutters clear and treating timber finishes as recommended). Any snagging is handled promptly after completion.
We offer traditional styles with timber cladding and pitched roofs, as well as contemporary designs with clean lines, large glazing and modern finishes. Popular choices include cedar or composite cladding, EPDM flat roofs, insulated walls and floors, and upgraded doors for security and warmth. Electrics can include sockets, lighting, heaters and data points for home working. We help you choose a layout and specification that suits your garden, budget and how you’ll use the space year-round.
