Outdoor space can be a real asset for residents, families and staff when it’s designed to be easy to use and reassuring. We create care home gardens that prioritise accessibility, clear wayfinding and comfortable places to pause. In the Banstead area, we often work close to Banstead High Street and Nork Park, shaping gardens that feel familiar and welcoming. The result is a space that encourages gentle activity, social time and quiet reflection.
Banstead’s mix of large detached houses, 1930s properties and executive homes means gardens can range from generous lawns to structured terraces and sloping plots. We design around levels, entrances and existing features so residents can move confidently between indoors and outdoors. Whether you’re in SM7, Nork or Burgh Heath, we’ll tailor widths, gradients and surfaces to suit mobility aids and staff workflows. Planting is chosen for year-round interest without creating maintenance headaches.
Our process starts with a site visit, listening to how the garden is used and who needs to access it. We then produce a clear plan covering pathways, handrails, safe boundaries, seating areas and sensory planting, with materials specified for slip resistance and durability. Work is scheduled to minimise disruption, with tidy, well-managed installation and clear communication throughout. Clients trust us because we deliver consistent finishes, practical aftercare advice, and a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations.
Banstead gardens often sit on chalky, free-draining ground near the Downs, which influences planting choices and irrigation needs. We plan robust edging and stable sub-bases for paths and ramps, especially on sloping plots around Tattenham Corner. Access and parking can be tight on residential roads, so we organise deliveries and waste removal to keep the site running smoothly. For care home gardens in Reigate and Banstead Borough, we also factor in visibility, safeguarding, and straightforward maintenance for staff teams.

Costs vary with size, levels and the amount of construction required. As a guide, a small upgrade (new seating, sensory planting, minor path works) may start from £3,000–£8,000. A mid-sized scheme with accessible pathways, raised beds, handrails and safe boundaries is often £12,000–£30,000. Larger projects including shade structures, multiple zones and full resurfacing can be £35,000+. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on access, weather and how much groundworks are needed. A focused refresh with planting, seating and small raised beds can be completed in a few days. If we’re installing new sub-bases, ramps, extensive paving, handrails and boundaries, allow 2–6 weeks. Timescales are affected by drainage requirements, curing times for concrete, and lead times for bespoke shade structures or railings.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as paths, planting, raised beds and most fencing within height limits. However, rules can change if the site is listed, in a conservation area, or if you’re adding larger structures, significant lighting, or high boundary treatments. We’ll flag likely permissions during the survey and can help you check requirements with Reigate and Banstead Borough Council. We also design to meet practical safety and access expectations.
We back qualifying hard landscaping installations with a 10-year warranty, covering workmanship and installation-related defects on items such as paving, path sub-bases, edging, steps/ramps and built raised beds. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to specific products (for example, certain handrail systems or shade structures). The warranty assumes normal use and reasonable maintenance, and we’ll provide clear care guidance at handover. Any snagging issues are addressed promptly.
We offer a wide range of options to suit safety, budgets and the look of the property. Popular choices include resin-bound or textured paving for accessible pathways, timber or brick raised beds, powder-coated metal handrails, and pergolas or sail-style shade structures. For sensory and memory gardens, we use fragrant shrubs, tactile grasses, herbs and high-contrast planting for easier recognition. We’ll recommend materials based on slip resistance, maintenance, and how the garden will be supervised day to day.
