Wandsworth · SW15 · Shed assembly
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Roehampton fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide shed assembly in Roehampton SW15 for houses and flats around The Alton Estate and Richmond Park. From £140, quoted in writing before the visit, with one fitter for a small shed on a ready base; two for anything over 8x6ft or where roof panels need lifting together The base is checked for level before the first panel is stood up.
Overview
Shed assembly in Roehampton SW15 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Wandsworth, most of them inter-war. 9,539 households sit inside this SW15 patch, 75% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Alton Estate and Richmond Park rather than a London average.
How it works
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.
Why choose us
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.
One fitter for a small shed on a ready base; two for anything over 8x6ft or where roof panels need lifting together. Slab blocks with limited lifts, long walkway carries and steep estate approaches.
Most builds are booked within a week, longer in spring when garden project demand peaks across London. Barnes (South Western) is the nearest station, so a SW15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 40% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in SW15, 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 Roehampton stock goes, the reality on the streets around The Alton Estate and Richmond Park.
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.
Scope
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 →

Working in Roehampton
9,539 households sit inside the SW15 neighbourhood covering Roehampton. The build is inter-war, the tenure profile social-housing-led, and 75% of those homes are flats.
The social-housing-led mix here (35% owned, 25% privately rented) means a SW15 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Walls are often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 40% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, so the fixing that matters in Roehampton is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Roehampton stock goes, the reality on the streets around The Alton Estate and Richmond Park.
The Alton Estate's modernist slabs beside Richmond Park's Roehampton Gate. That character decides the practical detail of shed assembly here far more than the borough boundary does. Roehampton is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: slab blocks with limited lifts, long walkway carries and steep estate approaches. Barnes (South Western) is the nearest station, and one fitter for a small shed on a ready base; two for anything over 8x6ft or where roof panels need lifting together.

Small shed up to 6x4ft, base ready starts at £140 in Roehampton in this 75% flats neighbourhood, with 25% of SW15 homes being privately rented — and Wandsworth parking rules in play, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. 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 in Roehampton — and The Alton Estate and Richmond Park a few streets away, with 25% of Roehampton homes being houses.
5m at the eaves within 2m of a boundary and all outbuildings together stay under half the garden on SW15 jobs, with 31% one-person households here. Many gardens in Roehampton are small enough that a large shed pushes close to that limit — we check before booking rather than after the kit is built on this side of Wandsworth — and this being a short walk from Barnes (South Western), with 9,539 households on this patch.
Yes — a paving-slab base is £45/m², with this being London Borough of Wandsworth territory, or a timber bearer base from £85 where a full slab isn't needed on SW15 jobs. With 25% of Roehampton homes being houses with a garden, most jobs here are base-plus-build in one visit around Barnes (South Western), with a median age of 33 in this neighbourhood.
Not once anchored. Terraced gardens funnel wind between the houses more than an open plot does, so we fit ground anchors or wall straps as standard rather than leave it to the kit's own fixings in this 75% flats neighbourhood — and Wandsworth parking rules in play, with 75% of homes here being flats, which is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Roehampton stock goes, the reality on the streets around The Alton Estate and Richmond Park on unanchored builds we're called back to.
The Alton Estate and Richmond Park is the marker we route to in this 75% flats neighbourhood, with 75% of homes here being flats, and slab blocks with limited lifts, long walkway carries and steep estate approaches. A SW15 slot added to an existing Wandsworth round usually lands the same week rather than the next around Barnes (South Western), with this being London Borough of Wandsworth territory.
Most builds are booked within a week, longer in spring when garden project demand peaks across London on SW15 jobs, with 9,539 households on this patch. Roehampton sits close to Barnes (South Western), with 35% owner-occupation locally, so we can usually add a SW15 job to an existing Wandsworth round at short notice on the Roehampton rounds.
Slab blocks with limited lifts, long walkway carries and steep estate approaches across SW15.
