Richmond’s Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and riverside properties often have mature gardens, shaded corners and established trees to work around. We regularly design for compact front gardens as well as deeper rear plots, including properties in Kew and Petersham. Plant choices are tailored to light levels, aspect and how you use the space, balancing perennials for reliability with annuals and bulbs for impact. The result is a bed that looks right with your architecture and stays manageable.

Costs vary with bed size, access, soil condition and plant specification. As a guide, a small bed refresh with soil improvement, planting and mulch often starts around £350–£750. New bed creation with edging, significant soil preparation and a fuller planting scheme is commonly £900–£2,500+. Larger gardens or premium plant palettes can exceed this. We provide a detailed, itemised estimate after a site visit in TW9/TW10.
Most small to medium flower bed projects take 1–2 days, including clearing, soil preparation, planting and mulching. Larger borders, multiple beds or complex planting designs may take 3–5 days, especially if we’re improving poor soil or working around established shrubs and tree roots. Timescales also depend on access for materials, weather, and whether plants need sourcing to match your preferred colours and flowering periods.
Flower beds are usually classed as permitted garden works and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re in a conservation area, altering boundary walls, working near protected trees, or making changes that affect drainage. Some streets also have restrictions on skips or parking suspensions. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and can advise on best practice so your project stays compliant.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on the installed elements we control, such as bed formation, edging installation and ground preparation carried out by our team. Plant performance depends on season, weather and aftercare, but we only use quality stock and plant correctly for the conditions. If a workmanship issue arises, we’ll return to inspect and put it right. Aftercare guidance is provided to help plants establish.
