Chiswick families want gardens that work from school-run to weekends, without compromising on style. Whether you’re near Chiswick House or along Chiswick High Road, we design outdoor spaces that balance play, planting and practical circulation. Expect clear sightlines from kitchen to lawn, defined zones for different ages, and finishes that still suit an affluent riverside suburb with a village feel. Every layout is tailored to how your household actually uses the garden.
The W4 housing mix brings its own challenges and opportunities, from Georgian houses with formal proportions to Victorian villas and Edwardian family homes with long, narrow plots. We’re used to working around mature trees, period boundary walls and existing terraces, keeping character features where possible. For homes close to Hammersmith, Acton, Kew or Gunnersbury, we also plan for privacy and neighbourly sightlines. The result is a garden that feels cohesive with the property, not bolted on.
We start with a site visit, then produce a practical concept that prioritises safety, drainage and durability. You’ll receive clear specifications for soft surfaces, edging, fixings and any play equipment bases, so there are no surprises. Our installers work tidily, protect access routes and keep disruption low, even on tighter Chiswick plots. Homeowners choose us for consistent communication, robust build quality and a finish that lasts.
Chiswick gardens often sit on mixed London soils, so we plan drainage and sub-bases carefully to prevent waterlogging and worn patches. Access can be restricted by side passages and on-street parking near W4, so we schedule deliveries and waste removal to keep things smooth. We also consider mature planting, tree roots and conservation-sensitive streetscapes around local landmarks. This local approach helps family friendly gardens chiswick area homeowners rely on stay safe, neat and usable year-round.

Costs vary with size, access and the amount of construction required. As a guide, a simple family upgrade with lawn improvements and a small soft-surface play zone often starts around £4,000–£8,000. Mid-range projects including new paving, drainage tweaks, planting and a dedicated play area are commonly £10,000–£25,000. Larger gardens with bespoke carpentry, lighting, irrigation and multiple zones can be £30,000+.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on groundworks and the number of zones. A lawn rebuild with edging and a small soft-surface area can be completed in about a week, while adding paving, raised beds, drainage and equipment bases typically extends the programme. Lead times for bespoke timberwork or specialist surfacing can add time. Weather, access and waste removal logistics also influence the schedule.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, including lawns, planting, patios and most domestic play equipment, provided heights and locations are sensible. However, rules can change if you’re in a conservation area, near protected trees, or if structures are unusually tall or close to boundaries. We review the proposal against local requirements and flag anything that may need consent. For family friendly gardens in London Borough of Hounslow, we can also advise on drainage and boundary considerations.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for hard landscaping elements we install, such as paving, edging, retaining details and properly constructed bases. This covers issues caused by installation faults, like movement from inadequate sub-bases or poor jointing. Materials are covered by their manufacturer warranties where applicable, and we’ll explain what’s included before work starts. We also give aftercare guidance for lawns and planting to protect your investment.
We can combine practical, child-safe finishes with a premium look: resin-bound or rubberised surfacing for play zones, quality turf or reinforced grass for lawns, and porcelain or sandstone for patios. Popular family features include sandpits with lids, in-ground trampolines, climbing frames on engineered bases, wildlife corners and raised growing beds. We’ll help you choose options based on age range, maintenance preferences, drainage and how you want the garden to feel year-round.
