Custom Pergola & Garden Structure Installation in Woolwich
Handcrafted timber pergolas, automated louvred roofs, and cedar privacy screening designed to reclaim overlooked Woolwich gardens. Founder-led craftsmanship by Billy Maddox & Vincent O'Connell.
Architectural Shade & Privacy for SE18 Gardens
The Tree Amigos design and install bespoke timber pergolas and garden structures in Woolwich, SE18, crafted from FSC-certified Western Red Cedar and Siberian Larch to eliminate overlooking issues.
In closely packed residential areas like Woolwich, privacy is often the primary concern for homeowners. Whether managing Victorian town centre terraces, contemporary riverside homes and red-brick family houses near Royal Arsenal, Woolwich Common, General Gordon Square and the Thames Path, gardens are frequently overlooked by adjacent first-floor windows or neighbouring extensions.
A bespoke architectural pergola provides complete overhead screening and structural charm. We handcraft freestanding and house-attached pergolas using 150mm+ structural posts anchored in 600mm deep concrete pile footings. At The Tree Amigos Landscaping & Gardening Ltd, we design and build handcrafted pergolas using FSC-certified Western Red Cedar, Siberian Larch, and C24 structural timber anchored on 600mm deep concrete pile footings, finished with breathable UV protective oil.
Woolwich is our home base — our headquarters is located right here at Woolwich, South East London. Billy Maddox and Vincent O'Connell provide immediate design visits across all Woolwich neighbourhoods.
Why Woolwich Residents Choose Our Pergolas
Overhead Privacy Shielding
Strategically angled roof rafters block sightlines from surrounding upper-floor windows while allowing natural sunlight to filter down.

We ensure all structures comply with Royal Borough of Greenwich regulations and national Permitted Development rules (under 2.5m height within 2m of a boundary line).

In most Woolwich residential gardens, pergolas fall under Permitted Development provided they are under 2.5m in height within 2 metres of a boundary. For heritage properties near Woolwich Common or Royal Arsenal conservation zones, we advise on local Royal Borough of Greenwich guidelines during our survey.
Our custom pergolas incorporate angled roof rafters and Venetian slatted side panels, blocking direct views from surrounding multi-storey buildings while maintaining an airy outdoor feel.
We build with FSC-certified Canadian Western Red Cedar, durable Siberian Larch, and C24 strength-graded timber, all finished with breathable UV protective oil.
