Neat edging makes a bigger difference than most homeowners expect: it stops gravel migrating, keeps mulch in place and gives lawns a crisp outline. Our team installs tailored borders across Sutton, including Cheam and Carshalton. If you’re near Sutton High Street or Manor Park, we can usually survey and schedule quickly. Expect a tidy, professional finish that complements your planting and paving.
Homes in the Sutton area range from Victorian terraces to 1930s semis and newer developments, each with different garden layouts and levels. We design edging that suits narrow side returns, curved front lawns and larger family gardens. For period properties, we often match traditional materials and proportions; for modern plots, we favour clean lines and minimal profiles. The result is edging that looks intentional, not added as an afterthought.
We start with a site visit to confirm levels, drainage and the look you want, then set out lines with care before any digging begins. Edging is installed on a stable base, pinned or haunched where needed, and finished flush to avoid trip edges and mower snags. We work cleanly, remove waste, and leave borders ready for planting or mulching. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, a precise finish, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Across SM1, SM2 and SM3 we often find mixed ground conditions, from compacted clay to lighter, free-draining soils. We adjust bases and fixings so edging stays true through wet winters and summer shrinkage. Access and parking can vary around Benhilton and Rosehill, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. Where properties sit on slopes, we set levels carefully to keep borders looking straight and intentional.

For garden edging in the Sutton area, costs typically fall between £15–£50 per metre depending on the material and the amount of ground preparation required. Plastic edging is usually at the lower end, while metal, brick and stone sit higher due to fixings and labour. Most Sutton gardens come in around £300–£1,200 overall, influenced by curves, steps, and whether old edging needs removing.
Most projects are completed in 1 day, especially straightforward runs around lawns, beds and paths. Timescales can extend if you’re choosing brick or stone with haunching, if there are lots of curves, or if we need to excavate and dispose of old concrete or timber. Weather and access also matter, particularly for deliveries and waste removal. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after measuring on site.
Garden edging is usually classed as minor landscaping and doesn’t require planning permission. However, restrictions can apply if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if changes affect a boundary wall, highway verge, or drainage. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and can advise on sensible heights and set-backs. If needed, we’ll help you check guidance with the London Borough of Sutton before work begins.
Yes. Our garden edging installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including alignment, stability and fixings when installed as specified. It’s designed to give you confidence that borders won’t loosen, lean or separate under normal garden use. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental impact damage, ground movement caused by major tree roots, or alterations by other contractors. We’ll provide care guidance to keep everything looking sharp.
We install a wide range of decorative borders, including metal edging for sleek lines, brick edging for traditional gardens, and stone edging for a premium, natural look. Sleeper edging works well for raised beds, while plastic edging can suit budget-friendly, hidden restraints. We’ll help you choose based on your garden style, soil, mowing needs and desired height. Samples and layout options can be discussed during the site visit.
