East Dulwich features Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions, often with long, narrow gardens and shared access. Our team is used to working around side returns, existing patios and mature planting, keeping disruption low. We tailor foundations and layouts to suit typical Southwark gardens, whether you’re near Peckham Rye or Dulwich Village. Every build is measured precisely so doors, glazing and rooflines sit neatly against boundary lines and fences.
We start with a site visit and clear options for size, style, insulation and electrics, then provide a written specification. Your build is managed end-to-end: base preparation, foundations, structure, weatherproofing, interior finishing and final snagging. Homeowners choose us for tidy working practices, dependable timelines and transparent communication. We’re based around 20 minutes away, so support and aftercare are close at hand.
Gardens across the London Borough of Southwark can have variable ground conditions, so we choose foundations to suit each plot. Access in SE22 often involves narrow side passages and controlled parking, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also consider proximity to neighbours and boundary lines, keeping roof heights and overhangs sensible. If permissions or constraints apply, our summer houses builders East Dulwich area team will guide you through the checks.

Costs vary by size, specification and access. As a guide, a small bespoke summer house can start around £6,000–£10,000, while larger insulated garden rooms with electrics and higher-end glazing often fall between £12,000–£25,000+. Premium interior finishing, heating, bathrooms or complex foundations can increase budgets. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit in SE22.
Most builds take 1–3 weeks on site once materials are ready, depending on size and finish level. A simple timber structure with basic fit-out is quicker, while insulated walls, plasterboard, flooring, electrics and custom glazing add time. Groundworks and foundations can also extend the programme, especially if levels need adjusting. We confirm a realistic schedule before starting and keep you updated throughout.
Many summer houses fall under permitted development, provided they meet limits on height, placement and garden coverage, and are used as ancillary space. However, rules can change for flats/maisonettes, listed buildings, or conservation areas, and electrics or drainage may add considerations. We offer planning advice and check key constraints before you commit. If permission is required, we’ll help you prepare the right information for Southwark.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering the structural build and installation quality when the summer house is used and maintained as advised. This includes key elements such as the base, framing, weatherproofing and fixings. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for items like doors, windows, membranes and electrical components. We also complete a snagging visit to ensure everything is finished properly.
We offer traditional styles with timber cladding and pitched roofs, plus contemporary designs with clean lines, large glazing and modern finishes. Popular upgrades include insulation packages, vapour control layers, roof options, composite or cedar cladding, and full electrics for sockets, lighting and data. Inside, we can fit plasterboard, paint-ready finishes, flooring and built-in storage. Our summer houses builders in London Borough of Southwark team helps you balance looks, durability and budget.
