Coulsdon gardens often deserve more than a quick tidy-up—especially with views and walks on Farthing Downs and Happy Valley nearby. Our team delivers full garden builds, hard and soft landscaping, plus careful planting that works year-round. Whether you’re in Old Coulsdon or closer to Chipstead Valley, we design spaces that feel practical, calm and well-finished. Expect clear planning, tidy working and results that elevate how you use your garden.
As experienced garden contractors Coulsdon area homeowners rely on, we’re used to large detached houses, characterful 1930s properties and newer developments across CR5. We tailor levels, drainage and layout to suit each plot, whether you want a family-friendly lawn, a low-maintenance courtyard feel, or a garden built for entertaining. Patios, decking, fencing and walls are designed to match the property’s style. Planting plans are chosen for structure, privacy and seasonal interest.
We start with a site visit, listen to how you want to use the space, then provide a clear proposal and programme. Our in-house team handles garden clearance, groundwork, construction, and finishing details such as edging, lighting coordination and planting. You’ll get consistent communication and careful protection of paths, lawns and access routes. Local clients choose us for dependable scheduling, high standards, and a 10-year warranty on qualifying workmanship.
Coulsdon’s semi-rural setting can mean sloping plots, chalky soils and exposed edges near open downland. We plan foundations, drainage and retaining solutions to suit, and we’re careful with access and parking on narrower residential roads in areas like Hooley and Old Coulsdon. As garden contractors in London Borough of Croydon, we also factor in waste removal rules, skip placement and neighbour considerations. The result is a smoother build and a finish that lasts.

Costs vary by access, levels, drainage and the finishes you choose. In Coulsdon, garden clearance and preparation might start from £500–£2,000, while a new patio or decking area is often £3,000–£12,000 depending on size and materials. Full garden builds with hard landscaping, fencing, planting and lighting commonly range from £15,000–£60,000+. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Smaller works such as clearance, fencing or a modest patio can take 2–7 days. Medium projects combining patios, paths, turf and planting often run 2–4 weeks. Full garden builds in CR5 typically take 4–10 weeks, especially where levels, retaining walls or drainage are needed. Timescales depend on design complexity, weather, curing times for concrete, access for machinery, and lead times for bespoke materials.
Most garden landscaping—patios, decking at low height, planting, and like-for-like fencing—usually falls under permitted development. However, rules can change with listed buildings, conservation considerations, boundary wall heights, significant level changes, and structures such as large outbuildings. Drainage and permeable surfacing can also be important. We flag likely permissions early, check relevant guidance for the London Borough of Croydon, and can work with your designer or planning consultant if needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying workmanship for our built elements, giving you confidence in the structure and installation. This typically covers issues linked to construction quality, such as paving installation, retaining work, and certain timber structures when maintained correctly. Materials are also covered by their manufacturer warranties where applicable. We’ll explain what’s included for your project and provide care guidance to help everything perform as intended.
We build with a wide range of finishes, including porcelain paving, sandstone, granite setts, resin-bound surfaces (where suitable), and composite or hardwood decking. For boundaries, we install closeboard, slatted and contemporary fencing, plus brickwork and rendered walls. Planting can be modern architectural, cottage-style, or evergreen screening for privacy. We help you choose options that suit your property style, maintenance preference and budget, then specify everything clearly before work starts.
