A well-set edge instantly makes a garden look tidier and more intentional, whether you want a crisp lawn line or a defined planting bed. We install durable edging that stops gravel creep, reduces strimming damage and keeps mulch where it belongs. Homeowners around Mitcham Common and Figges Marsh often ask for borders that look smart year-round without constant re-cutting. We cover CR4 with a finish that suits both traditional and contemporary gardens.
Mitcham’s mix of Victorian cottages, 1930s semis and modern estates means edging needs to match the property and the layout. We regularly work on front gardens with short paths and tight corners, as well as larger rear lawns that benefit from long, flowing lines. If you’re updating beds near Mitcham Cricket Green or improving a family garden in Eastfields, we’ll recommend profiles and heights that look proportional. Our garden edging Mitcham area service is designed to blend with existing paving, brickwork and planting.
We start with a site visit to mark out the lines, confirm levels and check how water moves across the garden. Edging is then set on a stable base, aligned carefully, and finished so transitions to lawns, gravel or paving are smooth and safe. We keep disruption low, work cleanly, and remove waste as agreed. Local homeowners choose us for clear communication, consistent workmanship and a 10-year warranty on installation.
Gardens in the London Borough of Merton often have mixed ground conditions, from compacted clay to made-up soils on newer plots. We adjust the base depth and fixings to prevent movement through wet winters and dry spells. Access and parking can be tight near Mitcham Junction station and on residential streets, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also keep edging lines sympathetic to period features common in CR4.

Most garden edging projects in Mitcham fall between £15–£50 per metre depending on the material and the groundwork required. Plastic edging is usually at the lower end, while stone, brick and sleeper edging cost more due to heavier materials and a more substantial base. Typical total spend is around £300–£1,200 for an average front or rear garden, depending on length, curves and site access.
In many cases we can complete garden edging in a single day, especially for straightforward runs around lawns and beds. The timescale depends on total metres, how many curves and corners are needed, and whether we’re excavating old edging or reshaping borders. Brick and stone edging can take longer than metal edging because they require more bedding and careful alignment. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after measuring up.
Garden edging is usually classed as minor landscaping and doesn’t require planning permission, particularly in rear gardens. However, restrictions can apply if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if the work alters a boundary wall or affects drainage onto the highway. If edging is part of a wider front garden redesign, rules around surfaces and water runoff may also matter. We’ll flag any concerns and advise what to check with Merton Council.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship for garden edging, covering issues such as movement caused by inadequate base preparation or fixing failure under normal use. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or ground movement caused by external factors like major tree root heave or third-party works. Materials may also carry their own manufacturer guarantees, which we’ll explain before you choose a finish.
We supply and install metal edging for crisp, modern lines; brick edging to complement period homes; and stone edging for a traditional, premium look. Sleeper edging is popular for raised borders and level changes, while plastic edging suits budget-friendly, hidden restraint. Decorative borders can add detail along paths or patios. We’ll help you choose based on style, durability, maintenance and how it ties into your paving, planting and lawn layout.
