Untidy lawn lines and spreading gravel can make an otherwise smart garden look unfinished. Our edging work creates crisp, durable borders that frame planting and paths properly. We regularly work around Morden Hall Park and the SM4 streets near Morden station, so we understand the mix of front gardens and family back gardens. The result is a cleaner layout that’s easier to mow and maintain.
Morden’s gardens often sit alongside 1930s semis with narrow side access, plus post-war estates and newer developments with compact plots. We tailor edging depth and fixing methods to suit each setting, whether you need a neat line for a small lawn or stronger restraint for gravel parking areas. For homes in Morden Park and St Helier, we can match edging styles to existing brickwork and paving. Every design is measured to look straight, balanced and intentional.
We start with a site visit to agree lines, levels and material choice, then mark out and excavate with minimal disruption. Edging is installed on a stable base, aligned carefully, and finished so it sits flush and safe for mowing. We keep the site tidy, remove waste, and walk you through aftercare. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clear pricing, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Gardens across the London Borough of Merton often have heavy clay patches and compacted ground, so we set edging on the right base to prevent movement. Access can be tight on 1930s semis, especially around Lower Morden and Morden South, so we plan materials and deliveries accordingly. We also factor in parking and working hours near busy routes and around Baitul Futuh Mosque. The aim is a straight, stable edge that stays put through wet winters and summer drying.

In the Morden area, garden edging typically costs £15–£50 per metre depending on the material and the amount of ground preparation needed. Plastic edging is usually at the lower end, while brick, stone and sleeper edging tend to sit higher due to labour and base requirements. Most homeowners spend around £300–£1,200 for a complete garden edge refresh, including setting out, excavation and tidy finishing.
Most garden edging jobs in Morden are completed in 1 day, especially for standard lawn borders and flower beds. Timescales can extend if you’re edging multiple areas, adding curves and decorative borders, or if the ground needs extra excavation and a stronger sub-base. Access also matters; narrow side passages can slow material handling. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after measuring and agreeing the layout.
Garden edging is usually permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission in the London Borough of Merton, as it’s a minor landscaping improvement. That said, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, working near a boundary wall, or the property has specific restrictions (such as certain new-build conditions). If your edging forms part of a larger front garden or driveway scheme, we’ll flag any checks needed before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our garden edging installation workmanship. This covers issues such as movement caused by incorrect base preparation, poor alignment, or fixings failing under normal use. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, impact from vehicles, or problems caused by later groundworks carried out by others. We’ll also advise on simple aftercare, such as avoiding aggressive edging tools and keeping soil levels consistent along the border.
We install metal edging for sharp, modern lines; brick edging to match period and 1930s homes; and stone edging for a premium, natural finish. Sleeper edging is popular for raised beds and stronger retention, while plastic edging suits budget-friendly borders. Decorative borders can be added to frame paths or planting areas. We’ll help you choose based on garden style, maintenance preferences, and how the edging needs to restrain soil, gravel or lawn.
