A well-planned garden can transform daily life for residents, visitors and staff. We design and build care home gardens hither green area with accessible pathways, clear wayfinding and restful seating. Whether your site is near Hither Green station or close to Mountsfield Park, we focus on spaces that feel welcoming and easy to use. Sensory planting and memory gardens encourage gentle activity and meaningful conversation.
Hither Green’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and 1930s semis often come with mature boundaries, level changes and narrow side access—details that matter when planning works. We’re used to working around existing trees, older drainage runs and compact courtyards typical of SE13. For larger properties and community settings, we can zone areas for quiet reflection, group activities and family visits. Every layout is tailored to mobility needs, staffing routines and safeguarding requirements.
We start with a site visit, risk-aware design and a clear programme of works, then manage installation with minimal disruption. You’ll receive a practical plan covering safe boundaries, handrails, shade structures and planting that looks good year-round. Our team keeps communication simple, with tidy working practices and staged handovers if needed. Fine Landscaping is trusted locally because we deliver durable finishes and thoughtful details that stand up to daily use.
Across the London Borough of Lewisham, we often encounter clay-heavy soils and compacted ground, so we plan drainage and planting accordingly. Access can be tight on residential streets around SE13, so we schedule deliveries and waste removal to reduce disruption. We also consider boundary heights, safeguarding sightlines and lighting for shorter winter days. Our designs suit local property styles and the practical realities of busy sites near Manor Park and surrounding roads.

Costs vary with size, access and the level of accessibility required. As a guide, a small refresh with safer paths, seating and planting may start from £3,000–£8,000. A more complete rebuild with raised beds, handrails, secure boundaries and new surfacing is often £12,000–£35,000+. Larger multi-zone schemes can exceed this, especially where drainage, lighting or shade structures are included.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks for a small to mid-sized courtyard or garden, and 4–8 weeks for larger sites with multiple zones. Timescales depend on groundworks, drainage, the amount of surfacing, and any bespoke joinery such as raised beds and pergola-style shade. We’ll provide a staged programme so areas can remain usable where possible, and we plan around visiting hours and care routines.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as paths, planting, raised beds and most seating areas. However, rules can apply to boundary heights, structures near highways, listed buildings, and works in conservation areas. For care settings, safeguarding and fire access routes can also influence design choices. We check constraints early, advise on what’s likely to need consent, and can help prepare information if an application is required.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, covering issues arising from installation defects under normal use. This typically includes paving, edging, retaining details and fixed structures installed by our team. Planting is covered separately due to seasonal and maintenance factors, but we specify robust varieties and provide care guidance. If anything needs attention, we respond promptly and keep disruption to a minimum.
Popular options include resin-bound or textured paving for accessible pathways, brick edging to suit period buildings, and timber or composite raised beds with smooth, rounded corners. For sensory planting we often use lavender, rosemary, grasses and colourful perennials, plus low-allergen choices where needed. Seating can be fixed benches, circular social seating or quiet nooks, with pergolas or sail shades for cover. We’ll guide you through samples and choose finishes that are safe, durable and easy to maintain.
