Quality Outdoor Rooms

Started with a Samsung heat pump sitting exposed in the corner of the garden — functional but an eyesore.

Built a slatted pressure-treated timber screen around it with a sedum roof on top. The slats are spaced deliberately to keep airflow unrestricted to the unit — it's not just a box, it has to breathe.

End result is something that looks like it was always meant to be there.

I could write another post about how hard this job was. The tonnes of hardcore. The weeks on site. Working through the weather. Myself and Oskar grafting start to finish while the farm stayed open around us.

And we still loved every minute of it.

But on the last straight - Good Friday morning, 90% done - we opened the main patio to the public. And that's when I noticed we'd done something else this time.

Kids running safely between tables. Café staff able to move freely and serve properly. Families settling in, having coffee, enjoying the space. A community that needed somewhere better to gather - and now they had it.

130m² of Raj Green sandstone. A new timber pergola. A roof overhead for all seasons. Six weeks of work that will last decades.

20 years on the tools. My voice cracked. Tear in the eye. Something you don't often get on a job.

Worth every bag of hardcore.

Stepney City Farm — new outdoor dining area taking shape in classic British weather. We've laid a large run of Indian sandstone paving and the pergola structure is up. Still more paving to come next week, but you can already see how much better this space is going to work for visitors. A community spot like this deserves something solid underfoot.

Before ➡️ After
From tired old shed to luxury garden room with cedar cladding + aluminium bi-folds 🌿✨
Finished off with fresh fencing, porcelain paving, and slate chippings for a low-maintenance, modern look.

Clean lines and smart design 👌

Porcelain patio with a custom-built brick bench featuring hardwood seating – plus a recessed manhole cover so clean it disappears into the paving. Another garden transformed in Walthamstow.
