Outdoor space can make a real difference to residents’ wellbeing, from gentle exercise to quiet moments outdoors. We design and build gardens that are easy to navigate, secure and inviting for care settings across SW12. Whether you’re near Balham station or closer to Tooting Bec Common, we tailor layouts for safe movement and restful seating. Every detail is planned to reduce trip risks and encourage confident use.
Balham’s mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions often comes with compact gardens, side returns and shared access routes. That’s ideal for thoughtfully planned zones: accessible pathways, raised beds for wheelchair gardening, and shaded seating for visiting families. For properties around Bedford Hill and Balham High Road, we also factor in noise, privacy and overlooked boundaries. Our care home gardens Balham area designs balance practicality with a premium finish.
We start with a site visit, listening to staff needs and resident routines, then produce a clear design with materials and maintenance options. Installation is scheduled to minimise disruption, with tidy working practices and safe site management throughout. You’ll get transparent specifications, staged sign-off, and a 10-year workmanship warranty for peace of mind. Local homeowners and operators choose us because we communicate clearly and deliver exactly what’s agreed.
Working across the London Borough of Wandsworth, we’re used to tight access, resident parking controls and timed deliveries. Balham gardens can have compact footprints and level changes, so we plan gradients, drainage and handrail positions carefully. We also select hardwearing materials that cope with heavy footfall and year-round use. Our care home gardens in London Borough of Wandsworth are built with safety standards and long-term maintenance in mind.

Costs vary with size, access and the level of adaptation required. As a guide in SW12, a small upgrade with safer surfacing, handrails and seating might be £4,000–£9,000. A fuller redesign with accessible pathways, raised beds, secure boundaries and sensory planting is often £12,000–£35,000+. Larger sites or premium shade structures can increase budgets, especially where access is restricted.
Most projects in Balham take 1–3 weeks for a focused upgrade, and 3–8 weeks for a full rebuild with new paths, beds and boundaries. Timescales depend on site access, levels, drainage changes, and whether we’re installing bespoke joinery, pergolas or shade structures. We agree a programme before starting and phase work to keep entrances, fire routes and resident areas safe and usable.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as replacing paths, adding raised beds, and most planting. However, planning or consent may be needed for higher boundary treatments, substantial structures, or works affecting drainage, trees or listed buildings. We review your site in the London Borough of Wandsworth, flag any likely constraints, and can help prepare drawings or information for the council if an application is required.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our installations, covering issues arising from how the work is built, such as paving movement, edging failure or fixings coming loose under normal use. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to products like composite decking, lighting or shade structures. We also give clear care guidance and can offer maintenance visits to keep surfaces safe, planting healthy and boundaries secure.
Clients often choose smooth, non-slip porcelain or resin-bound surfacing for accessible pathways, with contrasting edging for visibility. Raised beds can be brick, rendered blockwork, timber sleepers or composite, depending on maintenance goals. Sensory planting typically includes lavender, rosemary, grasses and seasonal bulbs, plus memory-garden favourites. We’ll propose options that suit supervision lines, mobility needs, and the character of Balham properties.
