Epsom’s green setting near Horton Country Park makes outdoor space a real asset for care settings. We design and build gardens that help residents spend more time outside safely, with clear routes, restful seating and planting that stimulates the senses. Whether you’re close to Epsom Clock Tower or serving families across KT17 and KT18, we tailor layouts to your site and care needs. The result is a garden that supports daily routines as well as quiet moments.
Across Epsom and Ewell you’ll find large detached houses, period properties and executive homes that are often converted or extended for care use. These plots can include mature trees, sloping lawns and long side access, all of which affect how a garden should be planned for mobility and supervision. We regularly work in the care home gardens epsom area, balancing privacy with visibility and creating spaces that feel domestic rather than institutional. Materials and planting are chosen to be durable, low-maintenance and welcoming year-round.
We start with a site visit to assess levels, access points, resident mobility needs and safeguarding requirements. You’ll receive a clear plan covering pathways, handrails, safe boundaries, seating areas and sensory zones, plus a phased schedule to minimise disruption. Our builds are tidy, well-managed and communication-led, with practical aftercare guidance for staff. Clients choose us for care home gardens in Epsom and Ewell Borough because we deliver reliable workmanship and thoughtful, compliant design.
Epsom gardens often combine clay-heavy soils with mature planting, so drainage and root protection matter. Access can be tight around older plots in Ewell and Stoneleigh, and we plan deliveries, parking and waste removal to keep neighbours and staff areas clear. We also account for sloping ground seen towards Epsom Downs, specifying stable sub-bases and handrails where needed. If any works touch boundaries or public-facing frontages, we’ll help you check local requirements before starting.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. As a guide in Epsom, small upgrades (handrails, short paths, a seating nook) often start around £2,500–£7,500. Mid-sized refurbishments with accessible pathways, raised beds and planting are commonly £10,000–£25,000. Full redesigns including safe boundaries, shade structures and drainage can be £30,000–£70,000+. We provide itemised options to match budgets and care priorities.
Most projects in Epsom take 1–3 weeks for targeted improvements, and 4–8 weeks for larger redesigns. Timescales depend on groundworks (levels, drainage), the amount of paving, boundary works and lead times for bespoke items like pergolas or handrails. We can phase work to keep key routes open and reduce disruption for residents. After the survey, we’ll confirm a realistic programme and daily site plan.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as planting, patios at ground level and most internal site layouts. However, permissions can apply to taller boundary treatments, changes near highways, listed buildings, or sites within specific constraints. Care settings may also have safeguarding and access considerations that affect design choices. We’ll flag likely requirements early, help you check with Epsom and Ewell Borough, and ensure the build follows good practice and relevant standards.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, such as paving sub-bases, retaining edges and constructed features, provided they’re used as intended and maintained sensibly. Manufacturer warranties apply to products like pergolas, fixings and some composite materials. Planting is living material, so it’s covered differently; we’ll advise on care and can offer maintenance plans. Any snagging issues are handled promptly and professionally.
Popular choices include resin-bound or textured porcelain paths for slip resistance, brick or stone edging for clear route definition, and timber or composite raised beds at wheelchair-friendly heights. Sensory planting often features lavender, rosemary, ornamental grasses and colourful perennials for year-round interest. Seating can be fixed benches, circular conversation areas or quiet corners for one-to-one visits, with pergolas or sail shades for comfort. We guide you through options based on mobility, maintenance capacity and visual style.
