Camberwell’s gardens often need clever planning to balance entertaining space with greenery. Whether you’re close to Camberwell Green or walking distance from Denmark Hill station, we create layouts that work for real life—dining, storage, play and privacy. Our makeovers combine hard landscaping with lush planting so the garden looks great year-round. We work across SE5 and nearby streets with varied plot sizes and access.
From Georgian townhouses to Victorian terraces and modern apartments, Camberwell properties come with very different outdoor challenges. Period homes often have long, narrow gardens that benefit from strong sightlines, level changes and layered planting. Modern developments can need screening, raised planters and lighting to add warmth. We tailor every scheme to your architecture and the way the space is used, including family-friendly and low-maintenance options.
Our process starts with a measured survey and a clear design proposal, then a phased build plan you can rely on. We handle everything: full design, patios, decking, planting, lighting and water features, with tidy site management throughout. You’ll get transparent specifications, realistic timelines and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty. Homeowners choose us because we communicate well, protect your property, and deliver a finish that lasts.
In the London Borough of Southwark, gardens can sit on mixed London clay, affecting drainage and patio sub-bases. Many Camberwell streets have restricted parking and narrow side returns, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and access carefully. For Victorian terraces, we often specify permeable build-ups and discreet level changes to manage water. We also design around mature boundaries and privacy needs near busy routes and institutions like King’s College Hospital.

Costs vary by size, access and specification. In the Camberwell area, a small refresh (new turf/planting, minor paving) often starts around £3,000–£8,000. Mid-size rebuilds with patios or decking and new beds typically fall £10,000–£25,000. Full redesigns with lighting, bespoke joinery and water features commonly range £25,000–£60,000+ for larger SE5 gardens.
Most projects run from 1–2 weeks for a compact makeover to 3–6 weeks for a full rebuild with patios, decking, planting and lighting. Larger schemes with multiple levels, drainage works or bespoke features can take 6–10+ weeks. Timescales depend on access, weather, curing times for paving and concrete, and lead times for materials, plants and specialist items such as water features.
Many garden works are permitted development, such as replacing paving, building patios at ground level, and most planting. Permission may be needed for taller structures, significant raised platforms, boundary changes, or if your home is listed or within a conservation area. Southwark rules can also affect drainage and front-garden surfacing. We flag likely requirements early and can help you check with the council before work starts.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our hard landscaping installations, including patios, decking structures, retaining details and related build elements, when installed to our specification. This covers defects arising from installation rather than accidental damage or misuse. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to products such as paving, composite decking and lighting components. We also offer aftercare guidance so planting and finishes establish well.
We offer tailored designs using porcelain paving, sandstone, clay pavers, composite or timber decking, and bespoke raised planters. For soft landscaping, we specify structured evergreens, wildlife-friendly perennials, and shade-tolerant planting for tighter SE5 plots. Lighting can include spike lights, step lights and subtle wall washes, while water features range from rills to self-contained bowls. We’ll guide choices by style, budget, maintenance and how you use the space.
