Wallington’s family homes deserve gardens that work every day, not just in summer. We create safe play areas with soft surfaces, generous lawn space and clear sightlines from the kitchen or patio. Whether you’re near Wallington Square or walking distance of Wallington station, we’ll shape a layout that keeps children active while staying tidy and practical. Expect thoughtful zoning for trampolines, climbing frames and quieter corners for wildlife.
Local gardens in SM6 often come with long plots, side access and a mix of sun and shade. We regularly work on 1930s semis, Victorian terraces and newer developments across Beddington, Hackbridge and South Beddington. Each property type has its quirks—narrow side returns, shared boundaries, or sloping lawns—and we design around them. The result is a family space that feels generous without losing structure.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a clear design plan showing play zones, planting and circulation routes. Then we handle groundworks, drainage, edging and surfacing so the garden stays safe and usable year-round. You’ll get a tidy, well-managed build, transparent scheduling, and workmanship backed by our 10-year warranty. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication and finishes that last.
Across the London Borough of Sutton, Wallington gardens can have compact access, shared driveways and tight parking, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also account for clay-heavy patches and drainage needs, especially where lawns get heavy use. Near Beddington Park and surrounding residential roads, we keep boundaries neat and surfaces level for safer running and riding. Our approach suits both period plots and modern developments.

Costs vary with garden size, access and the features you choose. In the Wallington area, a simple family refresh with new turf, edging and a small soft-play zone often starts around £3,000–£6,000. Mid-range builds including safe surfacing, planting, lighting and a defined play layout are commonly £7,000–£15,000. Larger projects with drainage, retaining work, bespoke carpentry or multiple zones can reach £15,000–£30,000+.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on complexity. A straightforward lawn-and-play-area upgrade can be completed in 5–8 working days, while multi-zone gardens with soft surfacing, raised beds and new paths often take 2–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by access in SM6 streets, ground conditions, drainage work, and lead times for specialist materials. We provide a clear programme before work starts.
Most garden landscaping and typical play equipment—such as a trampoline, sandpit or standard climbing frame—usually falls under permitted development. However, rules can change for taller structures, boundary-adjacent builds, listed buildings, or if you’re adding significant retaining walls, lighting, or outbuildings. We’ll flag likely constraints early and can help you check guidance for the London Borough of Sutton before you commit to a final design.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty, covering installation quality on key elements such as paving/edging, ground preparation, and constructed features we build. This helps protect you against issues caused by poor installation, like movement from inadequate sub-bases or failing fixings. Materials may also carry their own manufacturer warranties, which we pass on. We’ll explain what’s covered and how to care for surfaces and lawns.
Popular options include artificial or hard-wearing natural turf, rubber mulch or bonded resin for soft surfaces, and smooth porcelain or sandstone for low-slip patios. We can add raised growing beds, wildlife-friendly planting, and robust timber or composite edging to keep zones tidy. For play, we plan safe clearances around trampolines and climbing frames, and use planting to screen boundaries. We’ll guide choices based on budget, maintenance and how your family uses the space.
