What We Plan For in Lewisham

Between the conservation pockets around Hither Green and the tighter Victorian plots nearer Lewisham town centre, fitting a compliant shed into a small garden without it dominating the space is a recurring challenge, on ground that's often heavy London clay.

Fitting a Compliant Shed in a Small Plot

The Issue: Many Lewisham gardens, especially near the town centre, are compact, so a shed that's too large can dominate the space or breach permitted development limits.

Our Approach: We design a footprint that keeps within the 2.5-metre height rule near boundaries where relevant, while still giving you as much usable storage as the garden allows.

Conservation Streets Near Hither Green

The Issue: Some streets around Hither Green and Ladywell sit within conservation areas, where side-of-house outbuildings can need formal permission rather than falling under permitted development.

Our Approach: We check Lewisham's local guidance for your specific address before ordering materials, so there are no surprises partway through the job.

Heavy Clay & Tree Roots Near the Ravensbourne

The Issue: Ground near the Ravensbourne corridor and mature gardens further from the river both bring their own base problems — clay movement in one case, tree roots in the other.

Our Approach: We assess the specific ground on-site and choose between a compacted sub-base, screw piles, or a repositioned footprint depending on what we find.

Shed Installation Questions We Hear in Lewisham

Can my neighbour complain about my shed?
They can raise concerns, particularly about height, overshadowing, or a suspected boundary issue, but a complaint on its own doesn't oblige you to act if the shed is fully compliant. It's often easier to talk it through with them directly before anything becomes formal.
Can I build a shed with bricks in my garden?
A brick-built structure is treated more like a permanent building than a standard timber shed kit, which usually means planning permission is more likely to be needed. We're happy to advise if you're considering something more substantial than a typical timber shed.
Can my son live in my shed?
Turning a shed into a place someone actually lives generally requires planning permission and building regulations sign-off, since garden buildings are intended for incidental use — storage, a hobby space, or a home office — rather than separate living accommodation.
What are common shed building mistakes?
The issues we see most often are building straight onto bare soil or old paving without checking it's sound, skipping a proper sub-base on clay ground, pushing the shed hard against a fence with no maintenance gap, and underestimating how much bracing a roof needs in an exposed garden. Beyond the build itself, a common follow-on mistake is treating a shed as all-purpose storage — electronics, paperwork and food are poor candidates for a space that isn't climate-controlled.
