Response within 24 hours
Beckenham’s leafy streets and parks set a high standard for outdoor spaces, from Kelsey Park to Beckenham Place Park. We create care home gardens that support mobility, confidence and wellbeing, with clear routes, restful seating and planting that offers colour and scent through the seasons. Every layout is planned to reduce trip risks and improve wayfinding. The result is a garden residents and visitors can use, not just look at.
We’re regularly working across BR3, including Eden Park and Clock House, so we understand the access constraints and varied plot shapes common locally. Many sites sit alongside Edwardian houses, 1930s semis and period conversions, where levels, narrow side passages and existing drainage can affect the build. Our designs respect the character of the setting while prioritising practical care-home needs. We also plan for maintenance, ensuring planting and surfaces stay manageable year-round.
Our process starts with a site survey, risk-led design and a clear specification for pathways, handrails, boundaries and seating. We schedule works to minimise disruption, keep routes safe during the build, and leave the site tidy at the end of each day. You’ll receive transparent options, realistic timelines and a finish that meets the brief. Local clients choose Fine Landscaping because we communicate clearly and deliver robust, long-life workmanship.
Across the Beckenham area we often encounter mixed ground conditions, mature tree roots and gardens with subtle level changes. Parking and deliveries can be tight near Beckenham Junction station, so we plan logistics and waste removal carefully. We also account for drainage and surface water management to keep paths usable in wet weather. For care home gardens in London Borough of Bromley, we tailor materials and layouts to suit the building, the residents and the day-to-day operation.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. As a guide, a small upgrade (safe surfacing, a few raised beds and seating) is often £5,000–£15,000. A mid-size redesign with accessible pathways, handrails, sensory planting and secure boundaries typically falls around £15,000–£40,000. Larger schemes with shade structures, memory garden features and extensive groundworks can be £40,000–£100,000+. We provide itemised options after a site visit.
Most projects take 1–6 weeks depending on scope. A light refresh with planting, raised beds and a small seating area may be completed in 3–7 days. Full builds with new pathways, edging, drainage adjustments, handrails and boundary works commonly take 2–5 weeks. Timescales are affected by access (especially narrow side routes), weather, lead times for specialist materials, and whether the site needs phased working to keep resident routes open.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as planting, most paths, raised beds and like-for-like boundary repairs. However, permission may be needed for taller fences, certain gates, significant level changes, structures near boundaries, or if the building is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll flag likely issues during the survey and can help you check requirements with the London Borough of Bromley before work starts, so the project stays compliant.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, including paving and built structures, when installed to our specification. The warranty covers defects in workmanship and installation-related failures under normal use. Manufacturer warranties apply to specific products (such as paving or fixings) and we pass those on in writing. Planting is covered separately because establishment depends on aftercare, weather and site conditions; we’ll advise on a practical maintenance plan.
We can tailor the garden to your residents and care team, from resin-bound or textured paving for accessible paths to timber or masonry raised beds at comfortable heights. Popular additions include sensory borders (lavender, rosemary, grasses), memory garden planting themes, robust seating with arms, and pergolas or shade sails for summer comfort. Safe boundaries can be upgraded with secure fencing and self-closing gates. We’ll present options that balance safety, durability, maintenance and budget.
