Hayes (Bromley) offers generous plots and a semi-rural feel, so a well-planned family garden can make the most of every metre. We create practical layouts that balance lawn space with dedicated play areas, keeping sightlines clear from the house. Whether you’re close to Hayes Common or nearer Hayes station, we’ll design a garden that’s fun, tidy and easy to manage. Soft surfaces, safe edging and thoughtful planting all help reduce everyday bumps and scrapes.
Local homes range from large detached houses to period cottages and classic 1930s properties, often with mature boundaries and established trees. That mix brings opportunities—shaded corners for wildlife areas, sunny stretches for growing spaces, and room for climbing frames without overwhelming the garden. We’re used to integrating trampolines, sandpits and play equipment so they feel intentional, not like afterthoughts. If you’re in BR2, we’ll tailor drainage and surfacing choices to suit your plot and how your family uses it.
We start with a site visit to understand levels, access, and how children move through the space. You’ll receive a clear design plan, material options, and a schedule that keeps disruption to a minimum. Our builds prioritise safe fixings, robust sub-bases and child-friendly detailing, with tidy handovers and aftercare advice. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, premium workmanship, and a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations.
In Hayes (Bromley) we often find mature roots, mixed soil conditions and sloping sections near the commons, so we plan levels and drainage carefully. Access can be tight on some roads, so we organise deliveries, parking and waste removal to keep things smooth. We also design with Bromley’s property styles in mind—period features, established hedges and larger rear gardens. Where needed, we’ll advise on boundaries, tree constraints and practical placement of play equipment.

Costs vary with size, groundworks and what you include. As a guide, a simple family layout with lawn improvements and a small soft-surface play zone often starts around £3,000–£7,000. Adding premium surfacing, raised beds, lighting and planting typically brings projects to £8,000–£20,000+. Larger gardens with levelling, drainage, and integrated trampolines or bespoke carpentry can exceed £25,000.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on the amount of groundwork and surfacing. A straightforward lawn, edging and small play area can be completed in under a week, while levelling, drainage, new patios, and multiple zones may take 3–6 weeks. Timescales are affected by access, curing times for bases, and weather. We provide a clear programme before work begins.
Most family garden improvements are permitted development, including lawns, planting, raised beds and many play features. However, rules can apply for structures over certain heights, works near boundaries, listed buildings, or if you’re in a conservation area. Drainage changes and works near protected trees can also need extra care. We’ll flag any likely issues early, check constraints, and advise if you should confirm details with Bromley Council.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations, covering workmanship and the integrity of key build elements such as sub-bases, edging, and installed hard landscaping. Specific products (for example, artificial grass, lighting, or specialist surfacing) may also carry manufacturer warranties, which we pass on to you. We’ll explain what’s covered for your project in writing, along with care guidance to keep everything performing well.
We tailor the design to your children’s ages and how you use the space. Popular options include soft rubber mulch or wetpour play surfacing, durable turf or reinforced grass, timber or composite edging, and raised planters for growing spaces. Wildlife areas can include log piles, native hedging and pollinator planting. We’ll help you choose finishes that suit your home’s style, budget and maintenance preferences, then provide samples where possible.
