Nunhead’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period cottages typically have narrow side access and compact plots, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also see mature gardens that need reshaping rather than replacing, keeping established shrubs while refreshing the underplanting. If your soil is tired, compacted or full of builders’ rubble, our soil preparation sets the bed up for healthier growth. Homeowners across the flower beds Nunhead area appreciate planting that stays neat without constant fuss.
Our process starts with a site visit to assess sun, shade, drainage and how you use the garden. We then create or redefine the bed, improve the soil, install plants to a clear design, and finish with mulching to lock in moisture and suppress weeds. We communicate clearly, keep the site tidy, and schedule planting to suit the season for the best establishment. Many clients choose us for flower beds in London Borough of Southwark because we combine horticultural knowledge with reliable project management.

Costs vary with bed size, access, soil condition and plant choices. As a guide, refreshing an existing border with soil improvement, planting and mulch often starts around £450–£900. Creating a new bed with edging, deeper soil preparation and a fuller planting scheme is commonly £1,200–£3,000+. Larger gardens or premium specimen plants can increase budgets, while phased planting can spread costs sensibly.
Most small to medium flower bed projects take 1–2 days, including soil preparation, planting and mulching. Larger or multiple-bed gardens typically take 3–5 days, especially if we’re removing turf, reshaping levels or improving poor soil. Timescales also depend on access, the amount of waste to remove, and whether plants need ordering. We’ll confirm a clear schedule after the site visit.
Flower beds and general garden planting are usually permitted and don’t require planning permission. However, restrictions can apply if your property is listed, within a conservation area, or if work affects boundary walls, trees with protection orders, or shared front gardens. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and can advise on best practice for Southwark requirements. When in doubt, we recommend checking before work begins.
