A well-built summer house adds usable space without changing the feel of your garden. We design and build bespoke structures across SW4 and SW11, with projects ranging from compact reading rooms to fully insulated garden studios. Whether you’re near Clapham Common or closer to Clapham Old Town, we’ll tailor the footprint, glazing and finishes to suit your plot. Expect tidy working, clear communication and a premium finish.
Clapham’s mix of Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments often comes with varied garden sizes and access constraints. We’re used to narrow side returns, shared passages and tight delivery windows in streets around Clapham North and Clapham South. Our designs can maximise space with built-in storage, corner doors and efficient layouts. Where gardens are overlooked, we can add thoughtful screening and window placement for privacy.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a design proposal, then confirm foundations, electrics and insulation options before build day. You’ll get a clear scope of works, realistic programme and workmanship you can rely on. We coordinate groundworks, structural build and interior finishing so nothing is left to chance. Local homeowners choose us for consistent quality, respectful neighbours-first working practices and a 10-year warranty.

Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in Clapham typically range from £6,000–£12,000 for a small, uninsulated summer house with basic foundations. For a larger, insulated garden room with electrics and higher-end interior finishing, budgets often sit around £15,000–£35,000+. Price depends on size, glazing, roof type, access for materials, and whether you need upgraded bases, heating, or bespoke joinery.
Most builds take 1–3 weeks on site once the design is agreed and materials are ready. A simple timber summer house on a prepared base can be completed in under two weeks, while insulated builds with electrics, plastering and flooring usually take longer. Timescales are affected by access, groundworks complexity, bespoke manufacturing lead times, and weather during foundation and roofing stages.
Many summer houses fall under permitted development, especially if they’re single-storey, within height limits and used as ancillary garden space. However, rules can change with conservation areas, listed buildings, boundary proximity, and intended use (such as sleeping accommodation). We provide planning advice and can check constraints relevant to the London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth, then recommend the safest route before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our summer house builds, covering structural installation, fixings, and build quality issues arising from our work. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to items such as doors, windows, membranes, or electrical components. We also document the specification and maintenance guidance, so you know how to protect timber finishes and keep your summer house performing well for years.
We offer traditional styles with timber cladding and classic joinery, plus contemporary designs with clean lines, large glazing and modern roof details. Popular upgrades include insulation packages, concealed electrics, feature lighting, engineered flooring, and plastered interiors for a ‘room-like’ feel. We’ll help you choose materials based on orientation, privacy, and how you plan to use the space—office, gym, studio or family snug.
