A well-planned front garden improves kerb appeal, parking, and day-to-day access in SW2. We design and build driveways, pathways, lawns and planting that look right for Streatham Hill streets while staying practical for family life. Whether you’re near Streatham Hill station or walking distance to Telford Park, we tailor layouts to your frontage and how you use it. Expect tidy detailing, clean edges and finishes that last.
Streatham Hill has a mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions, often with narrow frontages and level changes. We’re used to working with bay windows, tiled paths, and boundary walls that need careful integration. For homes around Christchurch Road and towards Tulse Hill, we regularly rework tired paving, improve drainage and refresh planting to suit light levels. The result is a front garden that complements the property rather than fighting it.
We start with a site visit, measure-up and clear design options, then provide a detailed, itemised quote. Our team handles excavation, waste removal, sub-bases, edging, planting and final clean-down with minimal disruption. You’ll get clear timelines, regular updates and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, neat finishes and sensible advice on what will perform well long-term.
Front garden landscaping in London Borough of Lambeth often needs careful attention to drainage and levels, especially where hardstanding replaces old lawns. We design permeable solutions where appropriate and plan access for skips, deliveries and parking restrictions on busier roads. Many Streatham Hill properties have tight front boundaries, so we use compact storage, slimline planting and crisp edging to maximise space. We also factor in existing walls, railings and steps to keep period character intact.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. As a guide, a simple refresh (tidy-up, new planting, small path repairs) is often £1,500–£4,000. New paving and a redesigned layout commonly falls around £4,000–£12,000. A full build with driveway, walls/fencing, lighting and bin storage is typically £12,000–£30,000+. We’ll survey your frontage and provide an itemised quote.
Most projects take 3–10 working days depending on scope. A planting-and-pathway update can be completed in a week, while a new driveway with walls, fencing, lighting and drainage may take 2–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by excavation depth, curing times for concrete, material lead times and access constraints common on Streatham Hill roads. We confirm a programme before starting and keep you updated.
Many front garden improvements are permitted development, but driveways can trigger rules around surface water drainage and materials. If you’re creating or extending hardstanding, permeable paving or appropriate drainage is often required to avoid runoff to the highway. Boundary walls, railings and changes near the street can also have limits, especially on certain properties. We’ll advise at survey stage and can help you check Lambeth requirements.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our installed hard landscaping, such as paving, sub-bases, walls, edging and drainage, when used as intended. This covers defects caused by installation issues, not accidental damage or misuse. Planting is living material, so it’s covered differently; we’ll advise on aftercare and replacements where appropriate. You’ll also receive maintenance guidance to keep everything performing well.
We offer a wide range of options to suit period homes and modern conversions: permeable block paving, sandstone or porcelain paving, resin-bound surfacing, brick edging, rendered or brick walls, timber or composite fencing, and low-voltage or mains lighting. For planting, we can create low-maintenance evergreen structure, pollinator-friendly borders or formal layouts. We’ll bring samples, discuss budget and maintenance, then design a scheme that fits your frontage.
