Bermondsey gardens often need smart planning to maximise space and privacy without losing style. Whether you’re near Bermondsey Street or a short walk from Maltby Street Market, our team can deliver a full garden build that looks sharp and works hard. We handle everything from garden clearance to the final planting. Expect clean lines, durable materials and a finish that complements Bermondsey’s contemporary feel.
We regularly work across converted warehouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments around London Bridge, Rotherhithe and Surrey Quays. These properties can come with compact courtyards, raised planters, awkward levels and limited access through side returns. Our designs balance low-maintenance structure with seasonal colour, so your outdoor space stays attractive year-round. If you have a balcony-style terrace or a small paved yard, we can still create a layered, usable garden.
Our process starts with a site visit, clear design proposal and a detailed scope of works, so you know what’s happening and when. We manage demolition, groundwork, drainage, hard landscaping and soft landscaping under one roof. Homeowners choose us for tidy working practices, reliable scheduling and workmanship you can trust. We’re based just 30 minutes away, making aftercare and follow-up straightforward.
As garden contractors in London Borough of Southwark, we’re used to tight access, controlled parking and timed deliveries around SE1 and SE16. Many Bermondsey homes sit on mixed made-ground and compacted sub-bases from historic redevelopment, so we take extra care with excavation depth, sub-base build-up and drainage. We also plan for wind exposure near the river and overlooked boundaries common around modern blocks. Where required, we align waste removal and skips with local rules and neighbour considerations.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary with access, levels and the mix of hard and soft landscaping. As a guide in Bermondsey, garden clearance and removal often starts from £300–£1,200. A new patio or decking area typically ranges £2,500–£8,000 depending on size and materials. Full garden builds with fencing, lighting, planting and drainage commonly fall between £10,000–£35,000+ for premium finishes.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks for a straightforward courtyard refresh, and 3–8 weeks for a full rebuild with groundworks, walls, paving and planting. Timescales depend on access through the property, the amount of excavation, curing time for concrete and weather. Bespoke joinery, specialist stone, or water features can add lead time. We provide a realistic programme before starting.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as replacing paving, installing decking at a sensible height, or adding standard fencing. However, restrictions can apply for listed buildings, conservation areas, boundary walls, tall fencing, or significant changes to levels and drainage. If you live in a flat, freeholder permissions may also be needed. We flag likely approvals early and can help you check requirements with Southwark.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, covering issues linked to installation such as laying, sub-base preparation and structural integrity. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like paving, composite decking, lighting and pumps. Soft landscaping is living material, so it’s covered differently, but we advise on care and can provide maintenance options. Any snagging is handled promptly and professionally.
Bermondsey homeowners often choose porcelain paving for a crisp, low-maintenance look, or natural sandstone for warmer character. Composite decking suits roof terraces and contemporary courtyards, while timber works well for softer, greener schemes. For boundaries, slatted screens, brick piers and rendered walls are common. Planting tends towards architectural evergreens, grasses and climbers for privacy. We bring samples, explain pros and cons, and tailor the design to your lifestyle.
