Families near Eastfields station and Figges Marsh want gardens that feel relaxing, not risky. Our child safety upgrades cover secure fencing and gates, non-toxic planting, soft landing surfaces and sensible pond safety. We also plan visible play areas so you can supervise from the kitchen or patio. The result is a garden that works for everyday routines, birthdays and weekend play.
The Eastfields area mixes Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and newer developments, each with different access and layout challenges. Narrow side returns and shared boundaries often need careful fencing lines and gate placement. Larger rear gardens can benefit from zoned spaces, keeping play equipment away from steps and hard corners. We tailor child safe gardens eastfields area homeowners can rely on, without compromising style.
We start with a safety-first survey, then produce a clear plan covering hazards, sightlines and age-appropriate features. Every build uses rounded edges where possible, stable fixings and safe equipment installation, with tidy workmanship throughout. You’ll get straightforward scheduling, clean handover and aftercare advice to keep the garden safe as children grow. Local homeowners choose us because we’re five minutes away and we finish to a premium standard.
Across SW16 and CR4, gardens often sit on mixed London clay and made ground, so we specify stable sub-bases and drainage where needed. Access can be tight on terrace rows, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We’re familiar with expectations in the London Borough of Merton and can advise on boundary heights, front garden changes and visibility at entrances. Designs are adapted to suit Mitcham and Pollards Hill property styles and typical plot sizes.

Costs vary with garden size and what needs upgrading. As a guide, small safety refreshes (gate latches, minor fencing repairs, safer edging) often start around £800–£2,000. Mid-range projects with new fencing, soft surfacing and play-zone layout are commonly £3,000–£8,000. Full redesigns including patio changes, lighting, planting and pond safety can be £10,000–£25,000+. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most projects in Eastfields take 2–10 working days, depending on scope. Simple gate and fencing improvements can be completed in 1–3 days. Adding soft landing surfaces, new paths and play equipment typically takes 4–7 days. Full garden reworks with drainage, patios and planting may run 2–4 weeks. Timescales are affected by access, ground conditions, curing times for concrete, and whether materials are bespoke.
Many garden safety works are permitted development, such as replacing fencing, adding gates, installing play equipment and reworking planting. However, rules can apply to fence heights (especially at the front), corner plots, listed buildings and conservation areas. If you’re adding structures, significant levels changes or lighting near neighbours, extra checks may be sensible. We review your plans against London Borough of Merton guidance and flag anything that may need consent before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for installed hard landscaping elements, such as fencing installation, gates, edging, surfacing and built features, when maintained as advised. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like play equipment, artificial grass and paving materials. The warranty covers defects caused by installation issues, not accidental damage or misuse. We also offer aftercare guidance and can return for inspections or adjustments if needed.
We offer a range of family-friendly options, including close-board or slatted fencing with child-safe gaps, self-closing gate hardware, and rounded timber or composite edging. For soft landings, popular choices include rubber mulch, wetpour, play-grade artificial grass and bark in contained beds. Pond safety can include rigid covers, raised edges or discreet barriers. We help you choose based on age, maintenance preferences, budget and how you use the garden day to day.
