Penge’s mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions often comes with long, narrow gardens and shared boundaries. That means careful planning around sightlines, drainage and neighbour considerations, especially in Anerley and towards Crystal Palace. We’re used to working with limited side access and protecting existing paving, planting and fences. The result is a summer house that suits the property’s character and adds practical value.
Our process starts with a site visit, measured survey and clear design options, then we confirm foundations, structure and finishing details before work begins. You’ll get straightforward planning advice, a tidy site, and staged updates so you always know what’s happening next. We use proven construction methods, quality timbers and weatherproofing systems suited to London conditions. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, neat workmanship and a finish that lasts.
