If your outdoor space needs a full rethink, our team delivers end-to-end garden builds across SE14. We regularly work near New Cross station and around Goldsmiths University, where gardens range from compact courtyards to longer terrace plots. Expect practical layouts, clean levels, and finishes that look sharp year-round. Whether it’s a new patio, fresh planting, or a total clearance, we manage the job properly.
New Cross homes often include Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and converted flats, each with different access and garden proportions. We design for real-life use: entertaining, pets, low-maintenance planting, or storage that doesn’t steal the whole garden. For sloping plots near Telegraph Hill, we plan retaining edges, steps and drainage from the start. If you’re close to Deptford Park, we can also match styles that suit leafy outlooks and family-friendly spaces.
We start with a site visit, clear brief, and a detailed written quotation, then schedule works to minimise disruption. Our builds cover hard landscaping and soft landscaping, with careful set-out, tidy workmanship and reliable communication. Homeowners choose us because we turn up when we say we will, keep sites safe, and finish to a premium standard. Every project is backed by a 10-year warranty for added peace of mind.
Working in the London Borough of Lewisham means planning for tight access, shared boundaries and controlled parking on residential streets. Many New Cross gardens have clay-heavy soil, so we prioritise drainage, soil improvement and robust foundations for paving. We’re used to working around basement lightwells, extensions and outbuildings common to period terraces. Where needed, we coordinate waste removal and deliveries to keep disruption down.

Costs vary by size, access and specification. As a guide in New Cross, garden clearance can start from £250–£900, depending on waste volume. A new patio typically ranges from £120–£220 per m² supplied and installed, with groundwork affecting price. Full garden builds often fall between £8,000–£35,000+, especially if fencing, lighting, drainage or walls are included. We provide itemised quotes after a site visit.
Small jobs like clearance, minor planting or fence repairs can take 1–3 days. A patio with new edging and steps is commonly 1–2 weeks, depending on curing time and weather. Full garden transformations usually take 3–8 weeks. Timescales are influenced by access (through the house or side return), levels, drainage requirements, bespoke joinery, and lead times for stone, porcelain or timber.
Most garden landscaping is permitted development, such as patios, paths, planting and like-for-like fencing. However, rules can apply to front gardens, high boundary walls, listed buildings, conservation areas, and changes that affect drainage or public highways. If you’re adding raised decking, significant retaining walls, or altering levels near boundaries, we’ll advise on the safest approach. We can help you check Lewisham guidance before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for hard landscaping elements such as paving installation, sub-bases, drainage runs, retaining structures, fencing and built features, subject to normal use and maintenance. Materials are also covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable. We explain what’s included in writing and keep records of the build-up layers, so any issues can be diagnosed quickly. Soft landscaping is supported with aftercare advice.
We design and build with porcelain paving, natural stone, clay pavers, composite or timber decking, and bespoke pergolas or seating. For boundaries, we install closeboard fencing, slatted screens, brick walls and rendered finishes. Planting can be modern architectural, wildlife-friendly, or low-maintenance evergreen structure. Water features range from simple rills to self-contained fountains. We’ll recommend options based on light levels, soil, budget and how you use the space.
