A well-planned front garden can transform how your home feels from the street and how you use it every day. We design and build driveways, pathways, planting and lighting that complement Tulse Hill’s Victorian streets and modern estates. Whether you’re near Tulse Hill station or walking distance to Brockwell Park, we’ll create a tidy, welcoming approach with durable finishes. Expect clean lines, thoughtful levels and planting that looks good in every season.
Homes across SW2 range from Victorian terraces to Edwardian houses and post-war estates, each with different front boundaries, levels and access. We’re used to narrow entrances, shared paths and tight parking, so layouts are planned to make the most of every metre. If you need a low-maintenance frontage, we can balance hard landscaping with structured planting and resilient lawns. For period properties, we can match brickwork, edging and detailing so the front garden feels original, not bolted on.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a clear design proposal, then schedule the build to minimise disruption. You’ll get advice on drainage, lighting positions, boundary treatments and bin storage so the finished space stays practical. Our team works neatly, keeps access safe, and communicates throughout. Local homeowners choose us for reliable workmanship, tidy handovers and a premium finish that lasts.
Front gardens in the London Borough of Lambeth often need careful drainage planning, especially where paving replaces lawn. We consider Lambeth guidance on permeable surfacing, levels and run-off, and we can incorporate soakaways where needed. Access and parking can be tight around Brixton and Herne Hill routes, so deliveries and waste removal are planned in advance. We also match materials to local brickwork and railings common on Victorian streets.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. As a guide, a small refresh (new pathway, planting and tidy-up) often starts around £2,500–£6,000. A full rebuild with driveway, walls/fencing, lighting and new planting is commonly £8,000–£25,000+. Premium paving, extensive brickwork, complex levels or drainage upgrades can increase budgets. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most projects take 3–10 working days, depending on scope. A simple pathway and planting job can be completed in a week, while a new driveway with drainage, walls and lighting may take 2–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by excavation depth, curing time for concrete, delivery access, and whether you’re keeping parts of the existing garden. We confirm a programme before starting and keep you updated.
Many front garden changes are permitted development, but driveways and paving must usually be permeable or drain to a soakaway rather than the highway. If you’re altering boundary walls, adding tall fencing, or your property is in a conservation area, extra rules may apply. We’ll advise on what’s likely required and can help you check Lambeth’s guidance before work begins, so there are no surprises.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for hard landscaping elements such as paving, sub-bases, edging, walls and fencing (subject to correct use and normal wear). This covers issues like movement caused by installation faults or poor preparation. Manufacturer warranties apply to specific products like lighting and certain paving ranges. We also give clear care guidance for planting and lawns to help everything establish well.
For period homes, clay pavers, natural stone, brick walls and metal railings are popular for a classic look. Contemporary schemes often use porcelain paving, smooth render walls, slatted fencing and discreet LED lighting. We can add resin-bound or permeable block paving for driveways, plus raised planters, low-maintenance shrubs and a small lawn where space allows. We’ll bring samples, discuss maintenance, and tailor a design to your property.
