Do I need permission for a shed in my Ealing W5 garden?

5m at the eaves within 2m of a boundary and all outbuildings together stay under half the garden in this 63% flats neighbourhood, with 41% of W5 homes being privately rented. Many gardens in Ealing are small enough that a large shed pushes close to that limit — we check before booking rather than after the kit is built on Ealing bookings — and Ealing Studios and Walpole Park a few streets away, with this being a short walk from Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District).

Can you build a shed base as well as the shed in W5?

Yes — a paving-slab base is £45/m², with 37% of Ealing homes being houses, or a timber bearer base from £85 where a full slab isn't needed on this side of Ealing. With 37% of Ealing homes being houses with a garden, most jobs here are base-plus-build in one visit in Ealing, with 14% social-rented stock nearby.

Will the shed blow over in an exposed Ealing garden?

Not once anchored. Terraced gardens funnel wind between the houses more than an open plot does in Ealing, with 37% of Ealing homes being houses, so we fit ground anchors or wall straps as standard rather than leave it to the kit's own fixings — and Ealing parking rules in play, which is in W5, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — and broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks on unanchored builds we're called back to.

Are your fitters insured for work in W5?

Overview

Shed assembly in Ealing W5, explained

This page prices shed assembly for Ealing W5 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 41% privately rented and 18,588 households in total. Work starts at £140, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Ealing permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.

How it works

How shed assembly works in Ealing

Five steps, the same on every W5 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Ealing gives us new-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard, a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is what we plan for here.

Step 1
Check the base and the plot
Base checked for level and size, and the shed's height and position checked against the garden's remaining permitted development allowance.
Step 2
Unpack and count
Panels, roof struts and fixings checked against the parts list — a shed with a bent panel or a short bag of screws is found before the frame goes up, not halfway through.
Step 3
Frame and square
Floor and wall panels built up and squared before the roof goes on, since an out-of-square frame is what makes doors stick.
Step 4
Roof and weatherproof
Roof panels fitted, felt or shingle lapped correctly and any window or vent sealed.
Step 5
Anchor and finish
Ground anchors or wall straps fitted in exposed gardens, doors hung and eased, packaging taken away.

Why choose us

Why Ealing customers book us

Four things decide whether a W5 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.

Ealing walls, not generic walls

We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — and with 41% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in W5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in W5, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — and broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks.

Insured and documented

Fitters carry £5m public liability cover. Most garden sheds fall under permitted development if they sit under 2.5m at the eaves within 2m of a boundary and the total of all outbuildings stays under 50% of the garden — we flag it if a build looks close to either limit rather than assume it is fine.

Crew sized to the job

One fitter for a small shed on a ready base; two for anything over 8x6ft or where roof panels need lifting together. Broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks.

Booked around your day

Most builds are booked within a week, longer in spring when garden project demand peaks across London. Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District) is the nearest station, so a W5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Fixed prices

Shed assembly prices in Ealing

Fixed prices for W5 and the rest of Ealing. Shed size and whether the base already exists. A slab or bearer base adds a separate charge but saves the shed floor from sitting on wet grass or bare soil through its first winter.

Shed assembly price guide for Ealing W5
Job	From	Typical time	What sets the price
Small shed up to 6x4ft, base ready	£140	2–3 hrs	A one-piece or simple panel shed on an existing slab, framed, roofed and felted in a morning.
Medium shed 8x6ft, base ready	£220	3–5 hrs	More panels and a ridged roof mean more bracing before the structure is rigid enough to felt.
Large shed or workshop 10x8ft+, base ready	£320	5–7 hrs	Heavier framing, often double doors and a window, and usually a two-person lift for the roof panels.
Paving-slab base, per m²	£45	By area	Compacted hardcore and a sand bed under the slabs, laid to a slight fall so water runs away from the shed floor.
Timber bearer base on an existing hard surface	£85	2–3 hrs	Pressure-treated bearers levelled and packed to keep the shed floor off standing water without a full slab.
Anchor kit for an exposed or elevated garden	£60	45–60 min	Ground anchors or wall straps fitted so the shed does not lift in a gust funnelled between two terraces.

Prices are labour to build the kit you supply, on a base that is level and ready. Roofing felt, fixings and standard anchor kits are included; a bespoke concrete base is quoted separately by the m². We flag before booking where a build looks close to the 2.5m eaves height or 50%-of-garden permitted development limits so you can check before ordering. Permits, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge where they apply are itemised.

Scope

What's included in Ealing

The same scope across W5, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

Kit checked against the manual and the panel list before the first screw goes in, noted on the Ealing job sheet so the next visit starts from it
Standard on Ealing bookings: frame squared and braced before roof panels go on, so doors don't bind later, allowing for the 41% of W5 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
On W5 jobs: felt or shingle roofing lapped and nailed to the manufacturer's pattern, agreed on the doorstep in Ealing before anything is unpacked
In Ealing: anchoring or ground pins fitted as standard in exposed gardens, timed against the walk in from Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District)

Not included

Laying a full concrete slab base — quoted separately as a groundworks job, handled by London Borough of Ealing or a specialist contractor instead
Electrical supply to the shed, which needs a registered electrician for the armoured cable and consumer unit work, and we will say so before the W5 visit rather than on the day
Party wall or boundary consent where a shed sits within 2m of a neighbour's fence and exceeds the height limit, quoted separately if you need it arranged in W5

Really pleased with our house move. The guys came on time, loaded everything carefully like a huge jigsaw! Nothing got broken and even though they were working on an hourly rate they were really efficient, not to waste any time.

Ealing W5 at a glance

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Ealing — the numbers that actually change a shed assembly quote.

The W5 stock around Ealing Studios and Walpole Park is mainly Victorian. ONS records 63% flats, 37% houses and 18,588 households in Ealing.

Owner-occupation runs at 45% in Ealing, so alongside the 41% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.

Walls are with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — and with 41% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, so the fixing that matters in Ealing is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in W5, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — and broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks.

Two streets can behave very differently in Ealing: the Queen of the Suburbs — Walpole Park, the studios and a busy Broadway. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Ealing is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.

Broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks. Nearest station is Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District), and one fitter for a small shed on a ready base; two for anything over 8x6ft or where roof panels need lifting together.
