London shed assembly · West London
We work in Hammersmith and Fulham every week — riverside fulham terraces, hammersmith's flyover and offices, and white city's media and university campus. Shed assembly is priced against that reality, not a national average.
Fixed prices
| 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.
Working in Hammersmith and Fulham
The stock in Hammersmith and Fulham is two-storey victorian terraces, mansion blocks along the river and new towers at white city and fulham reach, and the mix changes street by street — Barons Court (W14), Brook Green (W6) and Fulham (SW6) each behave differently on the day.
London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham sets the constraint: very tight cpzs, red routes on the a4 and fulham palace road, and match-day closures around craven cottage and loftus road. Locally that means permit-only streets, mansion-block stair carries and a4 red-route restrictions on the southern edge and mansion blocks with narrow original staircases and no service lift, plus permit bays on every side street. Hammersmith and Fulham sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
Most flats in Hammersmith and Fulham are leasehold, and managing agents here routinely ask for a public liability certificate and a method note before a contractor drills anything. We send both with the booking confirmation.
Market gardens and riverside industry, then dense Victorian terracing; the BBC and later Westfield reshaped White City. That history is why Hammersmith and Fulham property behaves the way it does today.
Scope
Method
Step 1
Base checked for level and size, and the shed's height and position checked against the garden's remaining permitted development allowance.
Step 2
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
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 panels fitted, felt or shingle lapped correctly and any window or vent sealed.
Step 5
Ground anchors or wall straps fitted in exposed gardens, doors hung and eased, packaging taken away.
Coverage
Also in this borough
Garden sets, loungers, BBQs, parasols and shed bases built outside and weather-fixed.
Fitted and flat-pack wardrobes scribed to the wall and anchored so doors stay square.
TVs, mirrors, shelves and curtain poles fixed into the wall you actually have, in one visit.
Wardrobes, beds, desks and storage built, levelled and anchored to the wall.
Sheds emptied, dismantled and the base left clear and swept.
Small shed up to 6x4ft, base ready starts at £140 in Hammersmith and Fulham, and the ladder runs up to £60 for the largest job on the table above. 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. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: NW10, SW6, W12, W14 and W6. On the ground that includes Barons Court, Brook Green, Fulham, Hammersmith, Parsons Green and Sands End.
Most builds are booked within a week, longer in spring when garden project demand peaks across London. West London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Very tight CPZs, red routes on the A4 and Fulham Palace Road, and match-day closures around Craven Cottage and Loftus Road. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Two-storey Victorian terraces, mansion blocks along the river and new towers at White City and Fulham Reach is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
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. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
One fitter for a small shed on a ready base; two for anything over 8x6ft or where roof panels need lifting together. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Hammersmith and Fulham postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Laying a full concrete slab base — quoted separately as a groundworks job, Electrical supply to the shed, which needs a registered electrician for the armoured cable and consumer unit work and Party wall or boundary consent where a shed sits within 2m of a neighbour's fence and exceeds the height limit. If something on that list turns up in Hammersmith and Fulham, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
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. Our only criticism is that we needed a few items disassembled to get on the… Read in full →
