Kingston upon Thames combines a busy shopping centre with a peaceful riverside setting, so outdoor space matters. We create care home gardens that encourage gentle movement, safe socialising and quiet moments—whether you’re close to Kingston Bridge or near Surbiton. From accessible pathways to seating areas and shade structures, every element is planned around daily routines. The result is a garden that feels welcoming in every season.
Across KT1 and KT2 we work with a mix of Victorian villas, Edwardian houses and modern waterfront apartments that have been adapted for care use. Each property brings different access challenges, from narrow side returns to stepped thresholds and tight parking. We design raised beds and handrails to suit mobility needs without making the space feel clinical. Planting is chosen for low maintenance, clear wayfinding and year-round interest.
We start with a site visit to understand resident needs, supervision lines and safe circulation routes. You’ll receive a clear design proposal covering memory gardens, safe boundaries and practical maintenance considerations. Our team arrives on schedule, keeps disruption low, and leaves the site tidy and secure each day. Local clients choose us because we communicate clearly, build to a high finish, and stand behind our work with a long-term warranty.
We’re used to the access constraints of Kingston upon Thames properties, including shared drives, tight side passages and limited on-street parking. Ground levels can vary, so we plan gentle gradients, drainage and handrail placement carefully. Where works sit near boundaries or public-facing frontages, we consider visibility, safety and local expectations. Our team can be on site from Norbury in around 30 minutes, keeping projects moving efficiently.

Costs vary with size, access and the level of accessibility required. As a guide, a small upgrade (paths, seating, safer planting) often starts around £4,000–£8,000. A mid-sized redesign with raised beds, handrails, lighting and secure boundaries is commonly £10,000–£25,000. Larger schemes with extensive paving, shade structures and memory-garden features can be £30,000+. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks for a focused upgrade, and 3–6 weeks for a full redesign with new pathways, raised beds and boundary works. Timings depend on groundworks, drainage needs, bespoke joinery, and how much of the site must remain open for residents. Weather and delivery lead times for specialist materials can also affect schedules. We agree a programme in advance and plan around safe access and quiet hours.
Many garden improvements—planting, paths, raised beds and most fencing—are usually permitted development. However, rules can change if you’re adding tall boundary treatments, significant structures, lighting, or if the property is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll flag likely permission or building-control considerations early and can help prepare the information needed for the council. Our aim is to keep the project compliant and stress-free.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, covering workmanship issues such as movement or failure due to incorrect installation. It applies to elements like paving, edging, retaining details and built features when used as intended. Planting is covered separately because it depends on aftercare, watering and seasonal conditions, but we’ll advise on maintenance and can offer ongoing care plans. Any snagging is handled promptly.
We tailor materials to safety, comfort and maintenance. Popular choices include resin-bound or textured paving for accessible pathways, timber or brick raised beds, stainless or powder-coated handrails, and pergolas or sail shades for shelter. Sensory planting can include lavender, rosemary, soft grasses and high-contrast seasonal colour, while memory gardens may use familiar cottage plants and clear looped routes. We guide you through options based on mobility needs, budget and long-term upkeep.
