If your lawn edges keep crumbling into borders or gravel drifts onto paths, professional edging makes the difference. We install smart, durable borders across SW19, from South Wimbledon to the streets near Wandle Park. With the River Wandle close by, tidy edging also helps keep soil and mulch where it belongs after heavy rain. Expect sharp lines, easier mowing and a garden that looks properly finished.
Colliers Wood has a mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and modern apartments, each with different garden layouts and access. We’re used to narrow side returns, shared pathways and compact front gardens where every centimetre matters. Whether you want a subtle border to frame planting or a stronger edge to hold gravel, we tailor the profile and height to suit your property. Our team is based in Norbury, so we’re only around 10 minutes away for surveys and follow-ups.
We start by agreeing the line, levels and material, then set out a clean run with tight joints and consistent height. Edging is installed on a stable base and aligned to make mowing and strimming straightforward. We work tidily, protect existing planting where possible, and remove waste at the end of the day. Homeowners choose us for clear pricing, reliable arrival times and a finish that stays straight season after season.
Garden edging in London Borough of Merton often needs careful setting-out due to mixed ground and older garden levels. Around Colliers Wood and the Tandem Centre, parking and access can be tight, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to keep things smooth. Where gardens sit near the River Wandle, we pay extra attention to stable bases and neat falls so borders don’t shift after wet weather. We also match edging styles to the period look of terraces and the cleaner lines of newer builds.

Most projects in the Colliers Wood area are priced at £15–£50 per metre, depending on the material and ground preparation. Plastic edging is usually the most budget-friendly, while stone and brick require more cutting, bedding and finishing. Typical total spend is around £300–£1,200 for a front or back garden, based on length, curves, and whether you need excavation or new sub-base.
Most edging jobs take 1 day, which suits many SW19 gardens. Straight runs with easy access are quicker, while curved borders, tight side access, or removing old concrete haunching can add time. Brick and stone edging can take longer than metal or plastic because of bedding and alignment. We’ll confirm the expected duration after measuring up and checking levels, soil condition and any existing services.
In most cases, garden edging is classed as minor landscaping and doesn’t need planning permission. It’s usually permitted as long as you’re not creating significant retaining walls, altering drainage onto the highway, or working on a listed building or within special restrictions. If your edging ties into a front garden layout, we’ll flag any potential issues and help you check relevant London Borough of Merton guidance before work starts.
Yes. Our garden edging installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including alignment, stability and fixing failure under normal use. It’s designed to give you confidence that borders won’t loosen, lift or drift when installed correctly on a suitable base. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, ground movement from major external works, or issues caused by poor drainage outside the agreed scope. We’ll explain what’s included in writing.
We install metal edging for crisp modern lines, brick edging for a traditional look, and stone edging for a premium, natural finish. Sleeper edging works well for raised borders and gentle level changes, while plastic edging suits simpler lawn separation on tighter budgets. Decorative borders can be added to frame planting and paths. We’ll help you choose based on style, durability, maintenance and how you want the edge to look from the house and garden.
