That tired patch of grass between your doorstep and the pavement deserves better. Whether you're dreaming of a low-maintenance gravel design or vibrant borders that turn heads on the school run, your front garden sets the tone for your entire home.

Orpington's mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and modern developments each present unique front garden challenges. Perhaps you're battling that notorious clay soil common around St Mary Cray, or dealing with the sloping driveways typical of properties near Chelsfield Village. Years of working across BR5 and BR6 have taught us that no two front gardens are alike, especially when you factor in everything from parking requirements to bin storage solutions.
Creating an inviting entrance involves balancing aesthetics with practicality. Block paving provides durability for vehicles while ornamental grasses soften hard edges. Raised beds work brilliantly for properties with poor drainage - a common issue near the Cray Valley. Smart lighting choices enhance security whilst highlighting architectural features after dark, and permeable surfaces help manage surface water runoff without sacrificing style.
Local knowledge matters when landscaping in this corner of Kent. Having transformed hundreds of front gardens from Petts Wood station to the Chelsfield Park Hospital area, we understand which plants thrive in our specific microclimate and how to work within Bromley Council's planning guidelines.

Most homeowners in BR5 and BR6 invest between £3,000-£8,000 for a comprehensive redesign. Smaller terraced properties might spend £2,500 for simple improvements, while larger detached homes with extensive driveways could reach £12,000+ for premium materials and features.
