Chelsea gardens demand a careful balance of style and practicality, whether you’re near King’s Road or a quiet street off South Kensington. Fine Landscaping delivers complete garden makeovers that feel tailored to your home and lifestyle. We combine clean detailing with premium materials, creating spaces that work for entertaining, relaxing and family life. Expect a finish that complements Chelsea’s architecture rather than competing with it.
Across the Chelsea area, we regularly work with Georgian townhouses, Victorian mansions and luxury apartments where space, access and privacy matter. Courtyard gardens, roof terraces and compact rear gardens often need smart zoning and layered planting to feel generous. We design with sightlines, light levels and year-round structure in mind, so the garden looks considered in every season. Our team is used to working around existing features and high-spec interiors.
Your project starts with a site visit, measured survey and concept design, followed by clear specifications and a staged build plan. We handle hard landscaping, soft landscaping and finishing details such as lighting and water features, with tidy site management throughout. You’ll receive a written schedule, transparent options and a dedicated point of contact from start to handover. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, respectful crews and a result that performs as well as it looks.
Working in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea often means tight access, controlled parking and considerate working hours. Many SW3 and SW10 properties have basement levels, lightwells or mature boundaries that require careful protection during construction. We plan deliveries, waste removal and on-site storage to minimise disruption, and we build with drainage and levels in mind to suit London clay and paved courtyards. The result is a garden makeover that fits Chelsea’s standards and practical realities.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. In Chelsea, smaller courtyard refreshes with new paving and planting often start around £8,000–£15,000. Mid-size redesigns with patios/decking, lighting and structured planting commonly fall between £20,000–£45,000. Larger, high-end builds including bespoke joinery, irrigation and water features can reach £60,000+. We provide itemised options after a site survey.
A straightforward makeover may take 1–2 weeks once materials are on site. Most full garden makeovers chelsea area homeowners choose—new hard landscaping, planting, lighting and finishing—typically run 3–6 weeks. Complex builds with level changes, drainage upgrades, bespoke decking or water features can take 6–10+ weeks. Timescales depend on access, weather, lead times for stone/joins, and whether designs require approvals.
Many garden works are permitted development, such as replacing patios, adding planting, and installing low-level lighting. However, rules can apply to raised decking, boundary changes, structures, and listed buildings or conservation areas—both common locally. We flag likely constraints during the survey and can help you confirm requirements with the council where needed. Our aim is to keep the design compliant without compromising the finish.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, covering issues such as structural failure due to installation defects. Manufacturer warranties apply to products like lighting, pumps and certain paving materials, and we’ll register these where required. Soft landscaping is living material, so we advise on aftercare and can provide maintenance plans. Any snagging is handled promptly after handover.
We tailor every scheme, from contemporary stone patios to warm timber or composite decking, plus porcelain paving for crisp lines and easy cleaning. Planting can range from architectural evergreens to cottage-style borders, with pleached screening for privacy. Lighting options include subtle step lights, uplighters and feature pendants, while water features can be rills, bowls or wall spouts. We guide choices using samples, mood boards and 3D visuals where helpful.
