If your lawn edge keeps crumbling into beds or gravel drifts onto the path, professional edging makes an immediate difference. We install precise borders across Brixton Hill, Stockwell and nearby streets, keeping lines crisp all year. From front gardens off SW2 to courtyards near Brixton Market, our edging is set level, secure and built to last. The result is a garden that looks tidier and is simpler to mow and weed.
Brixton’s mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and modern developments often means compact plots, shared access and varied levels. We design edging that suits period features—straight lines for formal paths, softer curves for planting beds, or strong retaining edges on sloping gardens. Whether you’re upgrading a small rear garden near Windrush Square or a larger plot towards Herne Hill, we match materials to your style. Our team is based in Norbury, typically around 20 minutes away, so we can respond quickly.
We start with a site visit to measure runs, confirm levels and recommend the best edging type for your soil and layout. Installation includes careful ground preparation, solid fixing and a clean finish where edging meets paving, turf or gravel. We protect surrounding plants and leave the site tidy, with waste removed. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clear pricing and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
In the Brixton area we often find mixed ground: compacted clay pockets, made-up soil and tight side returns. We plan for access restrictions common to terraces and factor in parking/loading considerations around SW9 and busy streets near Electric Avenue. Our fixings and base preparation are chosen to prevent heave and movement through wet winters. You get edging that stays aligned and looks sharp, even in high-traffic front gardens.

Pricing for garden edging in Brixton typically ranges from £15–£50 per metre, depending on the material and the amount of groundwork needed. Plastic edging is usually at the lower end, while metal, brick and stone sit higher due to fixings, cutting and base preparation. Most homeowners spend around £300–£1,200 in total for a complete front or rear garden run, including installation and tidy-up.
Most garden edging jobs are completed in 1 day, especially for straightforward runs around lawns, beds or paths. Timescales can increase if we’re forming new curves, dealing with uneven levels, or installing heavier options like brick or stone that need a stronger base. Access also matters in Brixton terraces where materials may need to be carried through the house. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after measuring.
In most cases, garden edging is classed as a minor landscaping improvement and doesn’t require planning permission. However, rules can change if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if the edging forms a substantial retaining structure or alters boundary treatments. We’ll ask the right questions during the survey and can advise on Lambeth Council considerations, including heights, boundary lines and any restrictions that might apply.
Yes. Our garden edging installations come with a 10-year warranty on workmanship, covering issues such as movement caused by improper fixing or inadequate base preparation. The warranty applies when the edging is used as intended and the surrounding ground isn’t later disturbed by other works. Materials are also covered by the relevant manufacturer guarantees where applicable. We’ll explain care and maintenance to help your borders stay crisp.
We install metal edging for clean contemporary lines, brick edging for classic terrace gardens, and stone edging for a premium, natural finish. Sleeper edging works well for raised beds and level changes, while plastic edging suits budget-friendly borders. Decorative borders can add detail along paths or planting beds. We’ll help you choose based on your garden style, durability needs, and how the edging meets turf, gravel or paving.
