Pimlico’s garden squares and riverside outlooks deserve planting that looks considered in every season. From compact courtyards near Pimlico tube station to front gardens by Tate Britain, we design and build flower beds that feel in keeping with the setting. Our team handles bed creation, soil preparation and planting design as one coordinated service. The result is a bed that flowers well, stays healthy and is easy to maintain.
Many clients in the flower beds Pimlico area live in Regency townhouses, mansion blocks and period conversions where space is valuable and boundaries are defined. We’re used to working with narrow side returns, raised front beds and shared access routes. Planting plans are scaled to suit light levels, wind exposure and privacy needs. Whether you want a formal look or softer cottage-style planting, we tailor the palette to the architecture.
We start with a site visit to assess aspect, drainage and existing soil, then propose a clear planting scheme using perennials, annuals and bulbs for seasonal colour. Beds are formed neatly, improved with quality compost, and finished with mulching to lock in moisture and suppress weeds. You’ll receive straightforward aftercare guidance and a schedule for seasonal refreshes if required. Homeowners choose us for reliable timings, clean handovers and consistent results.
Gardens across SW1 often sit in sheltered courtyards or exposed riverside spots, so we choose plants that cope with wind and reflected heat from masonry. Access can be tight around mansion blocks and communal entrances, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also work considerately around residents and building managers, keeping paths clear and work areas tidy. If any local constraints apply, we’ll flag them early and adjust the build accordingly.

Costs vary with bed size, access, soil condition and planting density. As a guide, small bed refreshes with soil improvement and replanting often start around £450–£900. New bed creation with edging, soil preparation, mulching and a fuller planting scheme is commonly £1,200–£3,500+. Larger or multiple beds for SW1 front and rear gardens can be £4,000–£8,000+ depending on specification and plant choices.
Most single beds can be completed in 1–2 days, including soil preparation, planting and mulching. Larger gardens or multiple beds typically take 3–5 days, especially if we’re reshaping levels or removing old shrubs. Timescales depend on access (common in mansion blocks), the amount of excavation, and whether plants are in stock seasonally. We’ll confirm a schedule before work begins and keep disruption minimal.
In most cases, creating or improving flower beds is permitted and doesn’t require planning permission. However, some properties in the City of Westminster may have conservation considerations, listed status, or building management rules for communal areas. If you’re altering boundary walls, railings, or working in shared front gardens, extra permissions can apply. We’ll ask the right questions, check constraints where relevant, and advise on the safest route before starting.
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty on installed elements we supply and fit, such as bed formation, edging and related construction details. Planting is living material, so performance depends on weather and aftercare, but we provide clear watering and maintenance guidance to maximise success. If a plant fails due to an installation issue, we’ll put it right. Ongoing maintenance can also be arranged for peace of mind.
We can create anything from formal, structured beds to relaxed, pollinator-friendly planting. Popular options include evergreen structure with seasonal highlights, cottage-style mixes, or contemporary schemes with grasses and repeated blocks of colour. We work with perennials, annuals and bulbs for year-round interest, and finish with mulching (bark, composted mulch or gravel where suitable). We’ll recommend plants based on light, soil, and how much maintenance you want.
