Back gardens in SW18 present unique opportunities. Those narrow plots behind Earlsfield's terraced houses? They're crying out for clever vertical planting and smart zoning. The generous gardens backing onto Southfields? Perfect canvases for entertainment areas, wildlife havens, or peaceful retreats. Local expertise matters here - understanding how south-facing gardens catch that precious London sun, working with heavy clay soil after winter rain, and designing around those towering boundary walls that define so many Wandsworth properties.
Successful landscaping begins with understanding your garden's bones. Drainage issues plague many SW18 gardens, particularly those sloping away from Victorian properties where decades of settlement create waterlogged corners. Modern solutions include permeable paving, strategic planting of moisture-loving specimens, and subtle grading adjustments that channel water effectively. Materials matter too - reclaimed London stock brick echoes local architecture, while contemporary porcelain paving suits the area's growing collection of modernised homes.
Twenty years working Wandsworth soil teaches lessons no textbook covers. Every project from Garrett Lane to Trinity Road has shaped our understanding of what thrives here, what struggles, and how to create gardens that mature beautifully despite urban challenges.
