Peckham gardens come in all shapes, from compact courtyards to longer plots behind terraces near Nunhead and Queen’s Road. We create back gardens that suit how you live—space to dine, play, relax and entertain. Whether you want a new patio for summer evenings after a walk through Peckham Rye Park, or a calmer planting scheme to soften a busy week, we’ll tailor the layout to your home. Our builds cover everything from groundworks to the finishing touches.
Many SE15 homes are Victorian terraces and Georgian houses with narrow side access, plus converted warehouses where outdoor space needs clever zoning. We’re used to working with level changes, old garden walls, and drainage quirks common in Southwark plots. If your garden feels shaded, overlooked or awkwardly shaped, we’ll design around it with the right planting layers, lighting and screening. The result is a garden that looks considered, not crowded.
We start with a site visit, listening to what you want and measuring properly before proposing a clear plan and itemised quote. Our team handles patios, decking, lawns, planting, fencing, structures, lighting and water features as one coordinated project, so the finish is consistent. We protect access routes, keep the site tidy, and agree milestones so you always know what’s next. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, quality craftsmanship and a 10-year warranty on workmanship.
We plan projects for the back garden landscaping Peckham area, where access can be tight and parking needs forethought. Many gardens have clay-heavy soil and compacted ground, so we prioritise proper sub-bases, drainage and robust edging. If skips or scaffolding affect the street, we’ll advise on practical options and keep disruption down. Our designs also suit Southwark’s mix of terraces and warehouse conversions, balancing privacy with light.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. As a guide, a small refresh with new turf, planting and minor paving might start around £3,000–£7,000. Mid-sized gardens with a new patio or decking, fencing and lighting often fall between £8,000–£20,000. Full redesigns with drainage, structures and water features can be £20,000–£45,000+. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks once work starts, depending on complexity. A simple patio and lawn can be completed in around 5–10 working days, while larger builds with multiple levels, fencing, lighting and planting can take 2–4 weeks. Timelines are affected by access through narrow side passages, curing times for concrete, and weather. We’ll give a realistic programme and keep you updated throughout.
Many garden upgrades are permitted development, such as patios, decking at low level, fencing within height limits, and planting. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, raised platforms, large outbuildings or significant level changes. Drainage requirements may also apply, especially for non-permeable surfaces. We’ll flag likely permissions early, check constraints for your address, and can recommend the right route before any work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our landscaping installations, covering issues caused by installation faults (such as unstable paving, poor falls, or fixings). Materials are covered by the relevant manufacturer warranties where applicable, and we’ll pass those details to you. We also explain how to care for new lawns, timber and planting so they establish properly. Any snagging is handled promptly and professionally.
Popular choices include porcelain or sandstone patios, composite or hardwood decking, and low-maintenance artificial grass or premium turf. For structure, clients often choose slatted screening, contemporary fencing, pergolas, built-in seating and raised planters. Lighting options range from discreet step lights to uplighting for feature trees, and water features can be sleek rills or self-contained bowls. We’ll help you choose finishes that suit your home’s style and your budget.
