Project Fit
Bespoke Projects Are Quoted Individually
Most bespoke shelter, carport and pergola projects are quoted individually depending on size, materials, groundwork and installation requirements.
Smaller domestic installations often need different planning from larger spans or complex access routes.
Commercial, school and hospitality projects may involve multiple areas, heavier usage and additional site constraints.
Approximate size, location, budget range and timescale help make the first response more useful.

FAQs
Common Questions Before Requesting a Quote
Helpful answers for common questions before requesting a quote.
How much does a patio cover cost?
Costs depend on the size, layout, access, finish and how bespoke the structure needs to be. Send a few details through the quote form and we can reply by email with a more useful guide for your space.
Do you install carports?
Carport enquiries are welcome. South Coast Shelters helps connect suitable carport projects with supplier or installer options based on the site and requirements.
Can you build custom-size shelters?
Yes. Bespoke sizing is a core part of the service, especially for awkward spaces, larger spans, side access routes and projects with specific practical requirements.
Are aluminium shelters maintenance free?
Aluminium structures are low maintenance rather than completely maintenance free. They are durable, clean-looking and generally much easier to keep in good condition than many alternatives.
Do you cover Hampshire, Dorset, Southampton and Bournemouth?
Yes. Enquiries are welcome across Hampshire, Dorset, Southampton, Portsmouth, Bournemouth, Poole, Winchester, Salisbury and surrounding South Coast areas.
How long does installation take?
Installation time depends on project scale, access and complexity. Smaller jobs are usually simpler to schedule, while larger commercial canopies or covered walkways can take longer. We can discuss likely timescales during the quote stage.
Do I need planning permission?
Some projects may fall within permitted development, while others may require approval depending on the property, location and proposed structure. It is always sensible to check local requirements before work begins.
Do you offer free quotes?
Yes. Quote enquiries are free, with no pressure. Send the basic project details and you'll receive a reply by email with helpful next steps.
Can you help if I'm not sure what type of shelter I need?
Yes. Many enquiries start with a rough idea or a photo of the space. We can help you understand which type of cover may suit the area, budget and intended use.
