A well-built summer house gives you extra space without the upheaval of a full extension. In Peckham, we design and build garden rooms that work for home offices, studios and family hangouts, with finishes that feel part of the house. We regularly work around SE15, including near Peckham Rye Park and Queen’s Road. Every build starts with how you want to use the space, then we tailor the layout, glazing and storage.
Peckham’s mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and converted warehouses means gardens vary hugely in size, access and levels. We’re used to tight side returns, shared alleyways and long plots common around Nunhead and East Dulwich. That local experience helps us plan deliveries, minimise disruption and choose foundations that suit the site. Whether you want a traditional timber summer house or a contemporary garden studio, we’ll match it to your property’s character.
Our process is straightforward: survey, design, fixed-scope specification, then a scheduled build with daily site care. We handle foundations, insulation options, electrics and interior finishing, so you’re not juggling multiple trades. You’ll get practical planning advice upfront and clear communication throughout. Homeowners trust us for consistent workmanship, clean handovers and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Across the London Borough of Southwark, we often find mixed ground conditions and gardens with changes in level, so we specify the right base from the start. Access can be restricted on residential streets near Camberwell and around busy routes by Peckham Library, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also consider boundary positions, drainage and neighbouring structures before setting out. The result is a summer house that fits the plot and complies with local expectations.

Costs in Peckham typically range from £6,000–£12,000 for a quality timber summer house with solid base and basic fit-out. Insulated garden rooms with electrics, upgraded glazing and interior finishing often fall between £12,000–£25,000+. Price depends on size, roof type, insulation level, access in SE15, and whether you want plastered interiors, heating, or bespoke joinery. We provide a detailed specification so you can compare like-for-like.
Most builds take 1–3 weeks on site once the design and specification are agreed. A smaller traditional unit can be completed in around a week, while insulated, fully finished garden rooms with electrics typically take 2–3 weeks. Timescales vary with groundwork requirements, drying time for bases, bespoke joinery, and access constraints common on terrace plots around Nunhead and Queen’s Road. We’ll confirm a programme before we start.
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 depending on proximity to boundaries, listed buildings, conservation areas, or if you plan sleeping accommodation. We provide planning advice and can help you check Southwark requirements before work begins. If permission is needed, we’ll guide you on drawings and the application approach.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty covering build quality, structural integrity and installation-related issues, subject to normal use and maintenance. This includes key elements such as the base, framing, roof construction and weatherproofing details. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to items like doors, windows, membranes and electrical components. We also hand over care guidance so your summer house stays protected through Peckham’s seasonal weather changes.
We offer bespoke designs in traditional styles (shiplap, pitched roofs, heritage details) and contemporary designs (clean lines, large glazing, flat or mono-pitch roofs). Popular options include insulated walls and ceilings, EPDM or felt roofing, cedar or composite cladding, and secure aluminium or timber doors. We can install electrics for lighting, sockets and data, plus interior finishing such as plasterboard and flooring. We’ll recommend choices that suit your garden size, privacy and budget.
