Banstead gardens often need smart zoning: space for entertaining, play, planting and privacy without feeling over-designed. We create considered layouts for homes around Banstead High Street, Nork and the SM7 postcode, balancing structure with seasonal softness. Whether you’re overlooking Banstead Downs or tucked away on a quieter road, we’ll design to your light, levels and lifestyle. The result is a garden that feels coherent from the kitchen door to the back boundary.
Local properties range from large detached houses and executive homes to well-proportioned 1930s houses with generous side access. That mix calls for flexible design—courtyard-style seating for sunny corners, stronger screening where neighbours overlook, and planting that thrives in Surrey conditions. We also plan for family use, pets and low-maintenance preferences without losing a premium look. If you’re in Burgh Heath or near Tattenham Corner, we’ll tailor the design to your plot shape and outlook.
Our process starts with a site visit, measured survey and a design brief that pins down how you want to live outside. You’ll receive concept options, a refined masterplan, and detailed specifications—plus planting plans, lighting design, water feature concepts and hard landscaping design if required. We’re transparent on costs, programme and buildability, so the design can be delivered without surprises. Homeowners choose us for tidy project management, clear communication and a 10-year warranty on installed hard landscaping.
Across Reigate and Banstead Borough we often see chalky, free-draining soils and exposed spots near the downs, so planting and irrigation planning matter. Access and parking can vary, especially on busier routes near Banstead High Street, so we design with practical build sequencing in mind. We also consider privacy lines between detached plots and the way 1930s gardens typically taper or sit on gentle slopes. Every plan is drawn to be buildable and suited to local conditions, not just pretty on paper.

For Garden Design in Banstead, design-only fees typically range from £500–£2,500 depending on garden size, survey requirements, and whether you want extras like 3D visualisation, lighting design or water feature concepts. If you proceed to a full build, most completed projects land around £5,000–£25,000, influenced by paving, walls, drainage, planting maturity and any bespoke joinery or structures.
Most projects take 2–8 weeks from the start of on-site works, with design and approvals completed beforehand. Smaller refreshes with straightforward paving and planting can be quicker, while larger gardens with multiple levels, lighting, irrigation or water features take longer. Lead times for specialist materials, bespoke items and planting seasons can also affect programme. We provide a realistic schedule and keep you updated throughout.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as patios, paths, planting, and most low walls or fences within limits. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, boundary treatments, significant level changes, drainage alterations, or structures like large pergolas and outbuildings. We’ll flag any likely permissions early and can advise on what to check with Reigate and Banstead Borough Council before finalising the design and specification.
We stand by our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on installed hard landscaping, covering failures caused by installation issues (for example, sub-base and bedding problems on paving). Planting is living material, so guarantees depend on season, aftercare and watering, but we’ll specify suitable plants and provide care guidance to maximise success. Any manufacturer warranties on products like lighting are passed on in full.
Clients often choose porcelain paving for clean lines, sandstone for a softer traditional feel, and composite or hardwood decking for warm seating zones. For structure, we design brick planters, rendered walls, pergolas, and discreet screening to manage privacy. Planting can range from contemporary grasses to evergreen frameworks with seasonal colour, and lighting can be subtle uplighting or practical step lights. We guide choices using samples, mood boards and 3D visuals.
