Families around Tooting Broadway and SW17 often want a garden that feels relaxed without constant worry. We create safer outdoor spaces with secure boundaries, clear sightlines and child-friendly materials that stand up to daily use. Whether you’re near Tooting Bec Common or a quieter street in Furzedown, we’ll tailor the design to your routines and your children’s ages. The result is a garden that looks premium and works safely.
Tooting’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions often come with compact plots, side returns and shared access. That means every gate latch, path edge and planting choice matters. Our child safe gardens Tooting area plans make the most of narrow spaces while keeping hazards out of reach. We also design for prams, scooters and muddy boots, so the garden stays practical year-round.
We start with a safety-led survey, then map risks such as drops, ponds, sharp corners and poor visibility. Next, we propose materials and layouts that meet your brief, followed by tidy installation with clear timelines and daily site checks. You’ll get straightforward aftercare guidance for plants, surfaces and fixings. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, clean finishes and dependable communication from start to finish.
We’re used to working in the London Borough of Wandsworth, where access can be tight and parking needs planning. Many SW17 streets have narrow frontages and shared alleyways, so we schedule deliveries and remove waste efficiently. Local soils can vary between heavier clay and improved garden fill, which affects drainage and turf performance. We adapt foundations, sub-bases and planting plans to suit the site and property style.

Costs depend on size and the safety features required. For SW17 gardens, smaller safety upgrades (gate hardware, planting swaps, edge rounding) often start around £1,500–£4,000. A more complete rebuild with secure fencing, soft surfacing and new layout typically falls between £8,000–£25,000+. If you’re adding premium paving, bespoke joinery or extensive drainage, budgets can rise accordingly.
Most projects take 3–10 working days, depending on access, groundworks and the number of features being installed. Simple upgrades can be completed in a few days, while full redesigns with fencing, surfacing, planting and play zones may take two to three weeks. Timescales are affected by weather, curing times for concrete, and lead times for bespoke gates or equipment. We confirm a schedule before we start.
Many garden safety improvements are permitted development, such as internal fencing, resurfacing and most planting changes. However, rules can apply to front boundary heights, walls, and properties in conservation areas, plus any listed building constraints. We’ll flag likely permissions early and can help you check requirements with the London Borough of Wandsworth before work begins. Our aim is to keep the project compliant and hassle-free.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for installed landscaping elements, such as fencing installation, sub-bases, edging and constructed features, when used and maintained as advised. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for items like play equipment, artificial grass or specialist surfacing. If an issue arises that relates to our installation, we’ll inspect promptly and put it right. You’ll also receive care notes to protect your investment.
Popular choices include close-board or slatted fencing with child-safe gaps, self-closing gate hardware, and soft surfaces like bonded rubber mulch, play-grade artificial grass or bark in contained bays. For edges, we use rounded copings, bullnose paving and smooth timber detailing. Pond safety can include rigid grilles, raised edges or secure barriers. We’ll recommend options that match your home’s style and your children’s ages, then price them clearly.
