How it works
Step 1
Size, material, roof type and how we reach the garden. Rear-garden access through the house is normal in London and priced in.
Step 2
The quote says whether the base, the felt and any slabs are included, so there is no second conversation on the day.
Step 3
Contents out and sorted before anything structural moves, with usable tools and bikes set aside for you or a reuse partner.
Step 4
Roof, then panels, then frame and floor — kept in sections small enough to carry through the property without damage.
Step 5
Loaded, the footprint swept and levelled, and the waste transfer note handed over on site.
Why choose us
Same-week across every borough, and next-day on contents-only clears where a garden has to be presentable for a viewing. West Dulwich (Thameslink) is the nearest station, so a SE21 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE21, often with surface conduit, measured on the walk in from West Dulwich (Thameslink) rather than assumed from a map in SE21, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Dulwich Village stock goes, a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Registered waste carrier. Shed timber goes to a wood recycling facility, felt and mixed roofing to residual treatment, sheet metal to a scrap processor and any slab base to inert aggregate recycling, with a transfer note issued for every load.
Two crew and a Luton on a standard timber shed; three crew where the shed is a workshop size, the base is concrete or the only route out is through the house. Dulwich Estate covenants, low-traffic filters on the village junction and gravel driveways.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clear the contents only | £120 | 1 hr | Tools, pots, bikes and bagged garden waste emptied out, with the structure left standing. |
| Small timber shed, 6x4 to 8x6, dismantled and taken | £220 | 1–2 hrs | Panels come apart in the garden, and the carry through the house or a side return is the real work in a London terrace. |
| Large timber shed or workshop, 10x8 upward | £380 | 2–4 hrs | Heavier framing, a felted roof and often a timber base, which doubles both the dismantling and the load. |
| Metal or plastic shed removal | £240 | 1–2 hrs | Sheet metal and plastic go to separate recycling streams, and rusted fixings usually have to be cut rather than undone. |
| Concrete or paving-slab base broken out | £180 | 1–2 hrs | Inert waste is weighed in, and a slab base can outweigh the shed that stood on it. |
| Shed removal with garden clearance | £420 | Half day | One visit, one crew and one transfer note where the shed, the overgrowth and the old decking all go together. |

Scope
The most professional painting provider. They just finished painting my two bed flat in elephant and castle. Abdula and his colleague did amazing job. Very helpful and informative. They even cleaned the house after the painting
The team was very kind and respectful the whole cleaning and they did a wonderful job! They called and asked if they could come earlier because they finished their first job early, which was a nice surprise. When they arrived, they asked good questions and set expectations on what they were planning to clean. My… Read in full →
Amazing service from these guys. Arrived 15 mins early to start promptly and were done with a 2 bed / 2 bath flat in under 3hrs. Simply amazing. The finished result was out of this world, the kitchen appliances were quite dirty and they were like brand new afterwards including the oven! I cannot recommend… Read in full →

Working in Dulwich Village
In Dulwich Village (SE21) the split is 79% flats to 21% houses over 3,046 households, and the stock is Georgian and early Victorian.
The social-housing-led mix here (36% owned, 18% privately rented) means a SE21 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE21, often with surface conduit, measured on the walk in from West Dulwich (Thameslink) rather than assumed from a map, so the fixing that matters in Dulwich Village is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Dulwich Village stock goes, a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Dulwich Village sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — georgian village street, the picture gallery and the college's playing fields — which is why a SE21 quote is not a Southwark average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: dulwich Estate covenants, low-traffic filters on the village junction and gravel driveways. West Dulwich (Thameslink) is the nearest station, and two crew and a Luton on a standard timber shed; three crew where the shed is a workshop size, the base is concrete or the only route out is through the house.

With 79% of Dulwich Village homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm around West Dulwich (Thameslink), with 3,046 households on this patch — and Southwark parking rules in play, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Dulwich Estate covenants, low-traffic filters on the village junction and gravel driveways across SE21.

Registered waste carrier. Shed timber goes to a wood recycling facility, felt and mixed roofing to residual treatment, sheet metal to a scrap processor and any slab base to inert aggregate recycling in this 79% flats neighbourhood — and a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood, with 3,046 households on this patch, with a transfer note issued for every load. That paperwork is what most Southwark letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat for Dulwich Village (SE21) addresses, with 79% of homes here being flats.
Asbestos cement roof sheets, which are common on older London sheds and need a licensed contractor; Disconnecting mains electricity or water run out to the shed — and Dulwich Picture Gallery a few streets away, with this being London Borough of Southwark territory, which needs a qualified trade; Removing shared boundary fencing or anything belonging to a neighbouring property; Paint, creosote, weedkiller and gas bottles found inside across SE21, which need a hazardous-waste carrier. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Dulwich Village SE21 price you agree is the price you pay on this side of Southwark, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood.
