Elephant & Castle gardens often need smart planning to make every square metre count. Whether you’re near Elephant Park or walking distance from Strata Tower, we create outdoor layouts that feel bigger, brighter and easier to use. Our back garden landscaping elephant & castle area service covers patios, decking, lawns, planting, fencing and integrated lighting. We work across SE1 and SE17 with designs that suit busy households and entertaining alike.
The local mix of modern high-rises, Victorian terraces and new-build apartments means no two gardens are the same. Compact courtyard plots in Walworth and Newington benefit from clean lines, built-in seating and low-maintenance planting. Larger terrace gardens around Kennington can take layered borders, structured lawns and feature lighting. We tailor drainage, levels and materials to match the property style and how you want to live outdoors.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a clear design proposal, then schedule the build to minimise disruption. Each stage—groundworks, structures, surfaces, planting and electrics—is managed by experienced trades with quality materials. You’ll get straightforward communication, tidy working practices and a finish designed to last. Homeowners choose us for back garden landscaping in London Borough of Southwark because we deliver consistent workmanship and dependable aftercare.
Access can be tight around apartment blocks and terraced streets, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours carefully. Many gardens have mixed ground conditions from past landscaping, so we assess drainage, compaction and levels before laying patios or lawns. We also consider boundaries, party walls and shared access routes common in the London Borough of Southwark. If permissions or management-company rules apply, we help you navigate them early to avoid delays.

Costs vary by size, access and specification. As a guide, a small refresh with new turf, planting and minor repairs may start from £2,500–£6,000. Mid-range projects with a new patio or decking, fencing and lighting often fall around £8,000–£20,000. Full redesigns with structures, premium paving and water features can be £25,000+. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit.
Most projects run from 1–2 weeks for smaller gardens (turfing, planting, fencing) to 3–6 weeks for a full rebuild with patios, decking, lighting and structures. Timescales depend on groundworks, drainage changes, curing time for concrete bases, and access for materials and skips. Bespoke joinery, pergolas or water features can add lead time. We agree a realistic programme before work starts.
Many garden upgrades are permitted development, such as patios, decking at low level, planting, and like-for-like fencing. Permission may be needed for taller boundary treatments, structures near boundaries, significant level changes, or if your property is listed or in a conservation area. Drainage rules can also apply when creating large paved areas. We flag likely requirements during the survey and can advise on what to check with Southwark Council.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for installed hard landscaping, such as patios, decking subframes, fencing and built structures, when installed to our specification. It covers defects caused by installation issues, not accidental damage or lack of maintenance. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like composite decking, lighting fittings and paving. We also explain aftercare so your garden continues to look its best.
We design around how you use the space, then match materials to the look of your home. Popular choices include porcelain paving for clean modern terraces, sandstone for a warmer feel, composite or hardwood decking, and low-maintenance artificial grass or premium turf. Planting can be architectural evergreens, pollinator-friendly borders or shade-tolerant schemes. We can add pergolas, raised planters, smart lighting and compact water features, with samples provided before you choose.
