White porcelain patio, sleeper beds and fencing in Clapham

Colleen's garden near Clapham Common got a clean, bright new layout. We laid around 18m² of white 60x90 porcelain, built sleeper walls to form flower beds on all sides around it, fully replaced six fence panels and their posts, and left the remaining area prepared and ready for turf, which the client laid. Five days on site, just under £9,000 including VAT, all supplied and installed.

Where we started

The brief

Colleen wanted the garden near Clapham Common turned into a clean, modern space: a bright patio, planting beds around the edges, new fencing and an area ready for lawn.

The client planned to lay the turf, so we prepared that area and left it ready. It brings together the fencing in Clapham and patios in Clapham we install.

The tricky parts

What went into it

01

White 60x90 porcelain

Around 18m² of white 60x90 porcelain was laid for the patio, which keeps the small garden light and bright and is easy to clean.

02

Sleeper-edged flower beds

Timber sleeper walls were built to form flower beds on all sides around the patio and the lawn area, giving structure and planting space.

03

Six fence panels fully replaced

Six fence panels were fully replaced, posts included, so the new boundary is sound.

04

Ready for turf

The rest of the garden was prepared and left ready for turfing, which the client did.

Questions

About porcelain patios, sleeper beds and fencing

Thinking about something similar? These are the questions we hear most.

How much does a porcelain patio with sleeper beds and fencing cost in Clapham?

Colleen's garden near Clapham Common SW4 came to just under £9,000 including VAT for around 18m² of white 60x90 porcelain, sleeper beds on all sides, six fence panels and posts replaced and an area prepared for turf, over five days.

Is white porcelain a good choice for a small garden?

Yes. Light porcelain reflects light and makes a small, enclosed garden feel bigger and brighter, and porcelain is very easy to keep clean.

Why use timber sleepers for flower beds?

Sleepers are quick to build, sturdy and give a clean, natural edge to beds and lawn areas, which suits a modern garden.

Should I replace fence posts as well as panels?

If the posts are rotten or leaning, yes. Here six panels were fully replaced along with their posts so the whole section is sound.

Can you prepare an area for me to turf myself?

Yes. On this job the lawn area was prepared and left ready, and the client laid the turf.

Do you work near Clapham Common?

Yes, including Balham, Stockwell and Brixton. See all our landscape gardeners in Clapham.
