We design and build supportive outdoor spaces for residents, visitors and staff across Pollards Hill. Whether you’re close to Pollards Hill Library or near Pollards Hill Recreation Ground, we create gardens that encourage gentle movement, social time and quiet moments. Our layouts prioritise clear routes, safe boundaries and restful seating areas. Every detail is planned to reduce trip risks and make the garden simple to enjoy.
Pollards Hill’s quiet residential streets include many 1930s semis, post-war housing and maisonettes, often with practical rear gardens and side access. We’re used to working with narrow passages, shared paths and compact plots where every metre matters. For care settings, we make space feel generous through smart zoning, level changes handled with ramps, and planting that stays tidy. If you’re also serving nearby Norbury, Mitcham or Streatham Vale, we can keep the design consistent across sites.
Our process starts with a site survey, risk-aware design and a clear scope of works, then careful installation with minimal disruption. We specify non-slip surfaces, robust edging, handrails where needed and planting chosen for low maintenance. You’ll get a written plan, transparent options and a tidy handover with aftercare guidance. Fine Landscaping is based just 5 minutes away, so ongoing support is straightforward and responsive.
As a team working regularly on SW16 properties, we plan for tight access, on-street parking and considerate working hours. We also factor in typical Merton garden layouts, where level changes and older paving can create trip points. Our builds use durable materials that cope with year-round use and frequent cleaning. If any works sit near boundaries or shared access, we’ll help you stay compliant and neighbour-friendly.

Costs vary with size, access and the level of safety features required. As a guide, small upgrades (path repairs, handrails, a seating nook) often start around £2,000–£6,000. A mid-size refit with accessible pathways, raised beds and new planting is commonly £8,000–£20,000. Larger, multi-zone gardens with shade structures, secure boundaries and specialist surfacing can be £25,000+.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on groundworks and how many features are included. A simple refresh with planting, seating and minor path adjustments may be completed in a few days. Full rebuilds with new sub-bases, drainage, ramps, handrails and multiple zones typically take longer. Timescales are affected by access, weather, curing times for concrete, and lead times for bespoke shade structures or railings.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as planting, patios and most paths. However, rules can apply to boundary heights, railings, lighting, and structures like pergolas or larger shade canopies—especially near highways or in restricted settings. We’ll review your site, check any relevant constraints, and advise if you should contact the London Borough of Merton or submit an application. We can also design to stay within permitted limits.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for hard landscaping elements such as paving, edging, walls, steps and installed timber structures (where specified). It covers defects caused by installation issues, not damage from misuse, extreme weather events, or third-party alterations. We also use manufacturer-backed guarantees on many materials. At handover, we explain maintenance needs so surfaces and features perform as intended.
We tailor designs to residents’ needs and staffing routines. Popular options include resin-bound or textured porcelain for accessible pathways, smooth concrete pavers with contrasting edges, raised beds in timber or masonry, and sensory planting with herbs, grasses and seasonal shrubs. Seating can range from fixed benches to sheltered pergola areas, with memory garden features like labelled plants and familiar colour themes. We’ll present samples and a practical layout before you commit.
