South Gosforth is a suburban pocket inside Newcastle upon Tyne, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Newcastle upon Tyne job. We plan around back-garden patios with level changes and lawn-to-paving transitions. That's why this page exists separately to ourNewcastle upon Tyne page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
Solid-built semi-detached homes with good-sized plots, perfect for adding a new driveway or patio.
Newer builds with open-plan gardens that suit contemporary patio designs and low-maintenance landscaping.
Houses that have been extended often need the driveway or roof adjusted to match the new footprint.
Properties on corner plots have more frontage and garden space, offering greater scope for creative exterior design.
Our team knows this city inside out — from the busiest streets to the quietest suburbs.

Tyne and Wear is a densely populated metropolitan county with a mix of Victorian terraces, post-war estates, and modern developments. Properties here range from traditional Tyneside flats to large detached homes in leafy suburbs, all requiring exterior work that respects the area's industrial heritage and urban character.
As the regional capital, Newcastle has an incredibly diverse housing stock from Grade II listed Georgian townhouses on Grey Street to modern riverside apartments at the Quayside. Jesmond and Gosforth offer leafy Victorian suburbs, while the west end features more affordable terraced housing.
