Garden Structures Features and Benefits 

Garden structures bring a myriad of advantages to outdoor settings. These constructions not only elevate the visual allure of gardens but also fulfil practical purposes.

Garden Arches

Garden arches elegantly outline pathways and entrances, adding dimension and elegance to the landscape. A garden arch is a decorative feature usually used to beautify pathways or entrances.

Garden Arbours

Arbours provide a cosy and protected haven, often decorated with climbing plants, creating a perfect spot for relaxation or social events. An arbour is a more solid, enclosed seating area, often covered by climbing vines or plants, offering a secluded escape in the garden.

Pergolas

Made of high-quality aluminium, our pergolas are versatile and stylish. They are extremely durable and resistant to weathering, making them an excellent long-term investment. We have freestanding and wall-mounted pergolas for various applications, and they have a clever built-in drainage system that allows rainwater to drain without opening the louvred roof.

Garden Structures FAQs

Can a Garden Structure Increase the Value of My Property?

The influence of a garden structure on property worth can fluctuate, hinging on numerous factors such as the structure's type, its quality, its seamless integration into the broader landscape design, and the prevailing conditions of the local real estate market. In certain instances, garden structures that are skillfully crafted and properly upkeep can elevate a property's attractiveness, potentially playing a role in increasing its resale value.

Is Planning Permission Required for Garden Structures?

Small decorative garden structures like arches, arbours, pergolas, screens and sleepers used for ornamental purposes typically do not require planning permission when installed in residential gardens. As they are open-sided and often under 2.5 meters tall, these structures are usually covered by permitted development rights.

For more substantial buildings like fully enclosed garden rooms, large sheds and outbuildings, planning permission is normally needed if over permitted size thresholds, as they can block light or views.

When installing structures close to public land, connecting them directly to the house, or using them for commercial purposes, it is best to seek council approval first.

To find out if you need planning permission for the garden structures you want to build, carefully read through the local permitted development guidelines. These will tell you how big the structures can be and what they can be used for. To make sure rules are followed, it's also a good idea to check with your council's planning office ahead of time.
