A great garden starts with a clear plan, not guesswork. Our designs for CR4 homeowners balance layout, planting and materials so the space works in every season. Whether you’re near Mitcham Common or closer to Mitcham Junction station, we design gardens that feel considered and cohesive. Expect thoughtful zones for dining, play, storage and greenery—without wasting a single metre.
Mitcham’s mix of Victorian cottages, 1930s semis and modern estates calls for tailored solutions rather than one-size-fits-all schemes. We often redesign long, narrow plots, level changes and shaded corners created by neighbouring extensions. For 1930s gardens, we can reframe the space with clean geometry and generous planting. For newer homes, we add warmth with layered textures, lighting and focal features.
Our process is straightforward: site survey, concept options, detailed drawings, then a build-ready specification. You’ll receive clear planting plans, hard landscaping design and (where helpful) 3D visualisation to remove uncertainty. We communicate in plain English, keep timelines realistic, and protect your property during works. Homeowners choose us because the finished garden matches the design—and stays looking good.
We design with Mitcham’s real-world constraints in mind: side access widths, shared driveways, and on-street parking near Pollards Hill and Figges Marsh. Soil can vary from compacted ground on newer estates to more established garden beds near Mitcham Cricket Green. We also factor in drainage and falls to avoid pooling after heavy rain. Where council considerations apply in the London Borough of Merton, we’ll flag them early and design accordingly.

For Garden Design in Mitcham, design-only fees are typically £500–£2,500 depending on garden size, complexity and the level of detail (planting plans, lighting design, 3D visualisation). If you want us to deliver the full project, most complete builds fall around £5,000–£25,000, influenced by paving choices, retaining work, drainage, water features and access for materials.
Most projects run 2–8 weeks from the start of on-site work, with design and approvals happening beforehand. Smaller makeovers with straightforward paving and planting can be completed quicker, while larger gardens with level changes, lighting, irrigation or water features take longer. Access, weather, lead times for materials and any bespoke joinery also affect the programme. We provide a staged schedule before work begins.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as patios, planting, and most fencing within typical height limits. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, adding structures, working near boundaries, or dealing with drainage and permeable surfacing (especially for front gardens). We’ll advise what’s likely to be permitted and, where needed, help you check requirements with the London Borough of Merton before finalising the design.
We stand behind our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installation, covering issues linked to our build such as structural failure of installed patios, walls or steps due to workmanship. Planting is living material, so it’s covered differently; we’ll specify suitable plants and provide care guidance to maximise success. Any manufacturer warranties on products (lighting, pumps, paving) are passed on to you.
Popular choices include porcelain paving for clean, low-maintenance terraces, sandstone for a softer traditional feel, and composite or hardwood decking for warm seating zones. We also design pergolas, built-in benches, raised planters, and subtle lighting to extend evenings outdoors. Planting can range from wildlife-friendly borders to evergreen structure with seasonal colour. We’ll guide you through samples, maintenance levels and budget to choose confidently.
