If your garden needs a full rethink or a smarter layout, our team plans and builds it end-to-end. We work across CR8, including Purley Cross and Purley Oaks, creating gardens that suit how you live. Expect crisp levels, clean edges, and finishes that look right from day one. We can also tackle garden clearance first, so the build starts on solid ground.
Purley’s leafy plots often come with generous lawns, mature boundaries and sloping sections towards the North Downs. We regularly upgrade large detached houses, 1930s properties and period homes, balancing practical family space with planting that softens hard landscaping. Whether you’re after a low-maintenance courtyard or a layered, wildlife-friendly garden, we design around light, privacy and how the house connects to the patio. Our garden contractors Purley area clients value tidy working and a site that stays usable.
We start with a site visit, clear brief, and a measured plan covering levels, drainage and materials. You’ll receive a detailed scope of works, realistic timescales and staged payments, with a dedicated lead on site. We protect existing features where possible and keep neighbours informed when access is tight. Homeowners choose us for consistent craftsmanship, clear communication and a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations.
Purley gardens can include chalky soils and changes in level, especially nearer Riddlesdown, so we specify the right sub-bases and planting choices. Parking and access vary from wide driveways to tighter side returns, and we plan deliveries accordingly. We also consider boundary treatments and drainage rules that apply across the London Borough of Croydon. The result is a build that suits the plot, the street, and long-term upkeep.

Costs vary by size, access and specification. In Purley, small upgrades (clearance, planting refresh, minor paving) often start around £1,500–£5,000. Mid-size projects such as a new patio, fencing and lighting typically fall in the £8,000–£25,000 range. Full garden builds with levels, walls, premium paving, decking and structured planting commonly sit between £25,000–£80,000+.
Most projects take 1–6 weeks on site. A straightforward patio and fencing job may be completed in 5–10 working days, while a full rebuild with clearance, new levels, drainage, walls and planting usually needs 3–6 weeks. Timescales depend on weather, curing time for concrete, material lead times, and access for skips and deliveries. We provide a programme before work starts.
Many garden projects are permitted development, including patios, decking at low level, fencing within height limits, and general landscaping. However, rules can change for front gardens, listed buildings, conservation areas, high boundary walls, and drainage to the highway. We flag likely permissions early and can advise on SuDS-compliant surfacing where needed. If an application is required, we’ll help you prepare the details.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, covering workmanship such as paving build-ups, edging, retaining details and structural elements installed to our specification. Manufacturer guarantees also apply to many products we supply, including certain paving and composite decking. Soft landscaping is living material, so it’s covered differently; we’ll advise on aftercare and can offer maintenance to help plants establish well.
We design and build with porcelain paving, natural sandstone, granite setts, brickwork, timber or composite decking, and a wide choice of fencing and wall finishes. For planting, we can create evergreen structure, seasonal colour, pollinator-friendly borders or low-maintenance schemes. Water features range from simple rills to self-contained fountains. We’ll guide you through samples, layout options and practicalities like slip resistance and drainage.
