If your garden in SW18 feels tired, shaded or simply underused, a clear design plan makes all the difference. We create tailored layouts, planting and lighting that work for how you live, whether you’re near Wandsworth Common or closer to Southside Shopping Centre. Expect smart zoning for dining, play and relaxing, plus finishes that look premium year-round. Designs are detailed enough for smooth installation and accurate budgeting.
The Wandsworth area has a mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses with long, narrow gardens, as well as modern riverside apartments that need clever screening and container planting. We regularly design for family homes in Wandsworth Town, Southfields and Earlsfield, where privacy, storage and low-maintenance planting are common priorities. Our plans consider overlooked boundaries, mature trees and tricky shade. The result is a garden that feels balanced, mature and easy to run.
Our process starts with a site survey and a design brief, then concept options, refined layouts and a fully specified package. You can add planting plans, 3D visualisation, lighting design, water features and hard landscaping design to suit your project. We communicate clearly, keep decisions simple, and provide a design you can build with us or any competent contractor. Homeowners choose us for dependable timelines, tidy working practices and a finish that lasts.
Gardens across the London Borough of Wandsworth often have clay-heavy soils, mature tree roots and narrow side access, especially around East Hill and Earlsfield. We plan foundations, drainage and planting choices to suit these conditions and reduce future movement or waterlogging. Parking and loading can be tight near busy routes, so we design with practical build sequencing in mind. Where conservation constraints apply, we help you choose sympathetic materials and layouts.

For Garden Design in Wandsworth, design-only fees typically range from £500–£2,500 depending on garden size, complexity and whether you want extras like 3D visualisation, lighting design or detailed planting schedules. If you proceed to a full build, most projects commonly fall around £5,000–£25,000, influenced by paving quantities, drainage, retaining work, joinery, and the maturity of planting.
Most projects take 2–8 weeks from the start of installation, once the design is agreed and materials are ordered. Smaller refreshes with simple paving and planting can be quicker, while larger schemes with level changes, drainage, lighting, bespoke features or water elements take longer. Lead times for stone, joinery or specialist items can also affect the schedule. We provide a clear programme before work begins.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as patios, paths, planting and most fencing within height limits. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, significant level changes, structures near boundaries, and some water or electrical installations. In the London Borough of Wandsworth we check practical constraints early, flag anything that may need approval, and can guide you on the best route before you commit to construction.
We offer a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for the hard landscaping elements we install, such as paving, walling, edging and built structures, when used and maintained appropriately. This covers defects arising from installation rather than normal wear, accidental damage or extreme weather events. Planting is living material, so it’s covered separately and depends on watering and aftercare. We’ll explain what’s included in writing before work starts.
We tailor the look to your home and lifestyle, from contemporary porcelain paving and clean-lined lighting to warm sandstone, brick edging and cottage-style planting. Popular choices include pergolas, built-in seating, raised planters, wildlife-friendly borders, irrigation-ready layouts, and discreet water features for sound and movement. We’ll bring samples where possible, advise on slip resistance and maintenance, and help you balance budget with long-term durability.
