Eastfields families want gardens that work hard: safe play, easy maintenance and space to unwind. We design layouts that balance lawn space with dedicated zones for sandpits, trampolines and climbing frames. Whether you’re near Eastfields station or walking distance from Figges Marsh, we’ll create a garden that suits your routines and your children’s ages. Expect clear sightlines, practical storage ideas and surfaces that stay comfortable underfoot.
The eastfields area includes Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and newer developments, each with different proportions and access. We’re used to long, narrow plots where zoning matters, and compact gardens where every metre counts. Many households in Mitcham and Streatham Vale want robust finishes that stand up to bikes, footballs and muddy paws. We tailor drainage, edging and planting to match the property style and how you use the space.
We start with a site visit, measure-up and a family-first design plan that prioritises safety and flow. You’ll get a detailed scope, staged timeline and advice on child-friendly planting, surfacing and boundaries. Our team is five minutes away, so aftercare and tweaks are straightforward. Homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, clear communication and a finish that lasts through busy family seasons.
Across the London Borough of Merton, gardens often need better drainage and hard-wearing surfaces after wet spells. In SW16 and CR4 we regularly plan for side access limits, shared alleyways and on-street parking, so deliveries and waste removal stay smooth. We also consider regeneration-era boundaries and newer fencing lines around modern developments. Every design is adapted to your plot shape, sunlight and how your family moves through the space.

Costs vary with size, access and the features you choose. As a guide, a small refresh with safe surfacing and lawn improvements may start around £2,500–£6,000. A mid-size family garden with zoned areas, edging and planting is often £7,000–£15,000. Larger builds including trampolines, sandpits, timber structures and drainage can be £15,000–£35,000+. We’ll itemise options so you can prioritise.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on groundwork and how many zones are being built. A simple lawn and soft-surface install can be completed in a few days, while adding raised beds, fencing changes, lighting and play equipment usually extends the programme. Weather, access (especially for terraces), and curing times for bases and adhesives can also affect timings. We provide a realistic schedule before work starts.
Most typical garden works and domestic play equipment are permitted development, so planning permission isn’t usually required. However, rules can change if you’re adding tall structures, altering boundary heights, working near shared access, or if your property is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll flag any likely issues early and can advise on Merton Council guidance. If approvals are needed, we help you prepare the details before installation.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for the core build elements we install, such as bases, edging, paving or constructed features (subject to correct use and normal wear). Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like artificial grass, play equipment and membranes, and we’ll pass these on in writing. We also explain maintenance requirements so lawns, joints and surfaces perform as intended. Any snagging is handled promptly.
We can combine natural turf or premium artificial grass with rubber mulch, bonded gravel or bark play zones for softer landings. Popular additions include in-ground trampolines, timber sandpits with lids, climbing frames on dedicated bases, and raised growing beds for herbs and veg. For wildlife areas, we use native planting, log piles and small habitat corners. We’ll recommend options based on shade, drainage, budget and your children’s ages.
