Earlsfield homeowners want gardens that work hard: space to run, somewhere to play, and corners to unwind. We create practical zones for lawn games, sandpits, trampolines and climbing frames without the garden feeling cluttered. Whether you’re near Earlsfield station or closer to Garratt Lane, we’ll shape a layout that keeps children visible and adults comfortable. Expect robust materials, tidy edges and a finish that’s easy to maintain.
The Earlsfield area has plenty of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and conversions, often with long, narrow plots and shared side access. We’re used to designing for these proportions, making every metre count with clear sightlines and multi-use spaces. For family friendly gardens in London Borough of Wandsworth, we also factor in busy household routines—storage for toys, durable paths, and planting that won’t become a weekly chore. Our designs balance play with a grown-up look that adds value.
We start with a site visit, talk through how your family uses the garden, then produce a clear plan and itemised quote. Our team handles groundworks, drainage, surfacing and safe installation of play features, with clean working practices throughout. Homeowners choose us because we’re local (around 15 minutes away), reliable on timings, and transparent on costs. Every build is finished to a high standard, with aftercare advice to keep it looking great.
Many SW18 gardens sit on clay-heavy ground, so we prioritise drainage and stable sub-bases under lawns and soft surfacing. Access can be tight on terraced streets, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and materials to minimise disruption and protect hallways. We also consider proximity to the River Wandle and local shade patterns when choosing turf, plants and wildlife features. If any works touch boundaries or shared access, we’ll flag it early and keep everything compliant.

Costs vary with size, access and the features you choose. As a guide, a simple family layout with lawn improvements and safe edging may start around £3,000–£6,000. Adding soft surfaces, raised growing beds and lighting often brings projects to £7,000–£15,000. Larger builds with drainage upgrades, premium paving, and installed trampolines or climbing frames can be £15,000–£30,000+.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site once the design is agreed. A straightforward refresh—turfing, edging and a small play zone—can be completed in 5–8 working days. More complex gardens with drainage, new paths, soft surfacing, and carpentry for raised beds or storage typically take 2–4 weeks. Timescales depend on access, ground conditions, curing times, and weather.
Most garden landscaping and play features are usually permitted development, especially at ground level. However, rules can apply to taller structures, boundary treatments, decking height, and works near listed buildings or in conservation areas. We’ll review your plans, check likely constraints for the London Borough of Wandsworth, and advise if you should seek confirmation. Where needed, we can help with drawings and information for applications.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our landscaping workmanship, covering installation issues such as sub-base failure, paving movement and structural defects in built features, subject to normal use and proper care. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like artificial grass, lighting, or play equipment. We’ll explain what’s covered for your specific materials and provide care guidance to protect lawns, soft surfaces and planting.
We tailor the design to your family, budget and the garden’s proportions. Popular options include durable turf or artificial grass, rubber mulch or bonded resin for soft play surfaces, composite decking for seating zones, and raised sleepers or brick beds for growing spaces. Wildlife areas can include log piles, mini-ponds and pollinator planting. We’ll guide you on slip resistance, maintenance, colour choices and child-safe planting.
