Victorian terraces meet modern landscaping challenges across Mitcham's varied terrain. Those tricky sloping gardens between Figges Marsh and the Common? Stone-filled gabion structures solve them beautifully.
Response within 24 hours
Mitcham's mix of period properties and newer developments often share one thing - awkward level changes. Whether you're battling the gentle slopes near Colliers Wood or managing steeper drops around the Common, gabion walls create stunning, practical solutions. These wire mesh cages filled with natural stone have transformed countless CR4 gardens from problematic spaces into striking landscape features.
Construction begins with proper groundwork assessment - crucial given Mitcham's clay-heavy soil. Galvanised steel mesh panels arrive flat-packed, assembled on-site using spiral connectors. Local quarried stone gets hand-packed, creating natural drainage while maintaining structural integrity. Heights range from subtle 600mm retainers to impressive 3-metre boundary walls, each designed specifically for your plot's requirements.
Twelve years navigating Mitcham's planning requirements means smoother project delivery. Long-standing relationships with SW16 stone suppliers keep materials costs reasonable, whilst our Figges Marsh workshop ensures quick response times.

Smaller retaining walls typically finish within 3-4 days. Extensive boundary installations around larger Mitcham properties might stretch to 7-10 days, weather permitting. Initial groundworks add 1-2 days.
Every installation carries decade-long structural coverage. The galvanised mesh resists corrosion for 50+ years, whilst proper stone selection ensures zero maintenance. Written guarantees detail exactly what's covered.
Definitely - LED strips thread beautifully through stone gaps, creating dramatic evening effects. Small fountains or cascade features integrate seamlessly. Many Mitcham clients combine both for stunning focal points.
