Patios, Decking & Landscaping in Highgate
In Highgate and across Haringey we are most often asked for loft conversions on Victorian terraces in Harringay and terraced rear gardens and patios. The west of the borough, around Muswell Hill, Crouch End and Highgate, is known for large red brick Edwardian houses with decorative joinery and tiled paths. Harringay and Stroud Green have long late Victorian terraces, and Tottenham and Wood Green have smaller Victorian terraces, a historic cottage estate and post-war council housing.
Patios & Gardens in Highgate
A garden you will actually use.
London gardens are small, overlooked and often badly drained. Good hard landscaping fixes all three. We build patios, decks, walls and garden rooms that make a narrow plot feel like another room of the house.

FAQ
Patios & Gardens in Highgate
Not answered here? Call 07595 386864 and ask us directly.
Do you carry out patios, decking & landscaping in Highgate?
Yes. Highgate is in Haringey, where we work every week alongside Tottenham, Wood Green, Muswell Hill and Crouch End.
Porcelain or natural stone?
Porcelain is consistent, stain-resistant and very low maintenance. Natural stone has more character and weathers over time. We bring samples to the site visit so you can see both against your brickwork.
Will a new patio cause damp?
Not if it is built correctly. We keep the finished level at least 150mm below the damp-proof course, or add a drainage channel against the wall where that is not possible.
Does a garden room need planning permission?
Most garden rooms are permitted development if they are single-storey, under 2.5m high near a boundary, and not used as a separate dwelling. Flats and some conservation areas are exceptions. We check before you commit.
