If your garden feels dated, awkward or hard to maintain, we can rework it into a practical, beautiful space. We regularly transform gardens around Lee Green crossroads and near Lee station, creating layouts that suit how you live. Whether you want a family-friendly lawn, a dining terrace, or a low-maintenance courtyard, we’ll tailor the design. We work across SE12 with a clear plan from first survey to final planting.
Lee Green’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis and 1930s houses often come with long, narrow gardens, level changes, and older boundaries that need careful handling. We’re used to improving drainage, refreshing tired paving, and making side returns work harder for storage or access. Many homeowners also want privacy screening without losing light, especially where gardens back onto neighbouring plots. Our makeovers balance structure and softness so the garden feels settled from day one.
Every project starts with a measured site visit, concept design and a fixed-scope proposal, so you know what you’re getting. We manage hard landscaping, soft landscaping, lighting and finishing details in the right order to avoid costly rework. Your garden is kept tidy and safe during the build, with clear milestones and regular updates. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, skilled workmanship and a finish that lasts.
We understand the London Borough of Lewisham’s mix of compact plots and long rear gardens, where access can be tight and waste removal must be planned. Parking and deliveries near Leegate Shopping Centre and busier roads are scheduled to minimise disruption. We also account for typical London clay conditions, specifying the right sub-bases, drainage and planting preparation. The result is a garden makeover that looks great and performs well year-round.

Costs vary by size, access and specification. As a guide, smaller refresh makeovers (new paving, tidy planting, minor levels) often start around £4,000–£8,000. Mid-sized projects with new patio, paths, turf and lighting commonly fall between £10,000–£25,000. Full redesigns with decking, walls, premium paving, bespoke joinery or water features can be £25,000–£60,000+. We provide a detailed, itemised scope after a site visit.
Most makeovers take 1–3 weeks once work starts, depending on complexity. A straightforward patio-and-planting project can be completed in 5–10 working days, while full hard landscaping with steps, drainage, decking and lighting often needs 2–4 weeks. Timescales are affected by access, curing time for concrete, weather, and lead times for specialist materials. We agree a programme in advance and keep you updated at each stage.
Most garden makeover work is permitted development, such as patios, decking at sensible heights, planting, and typical garden lighting. However, rules can apply to raised platforms, boundary walls/fences over certain heights, drainage changes, and works near trees with protection orders. If your property is in a conservation area, extra considerations may apply. We flag any likely permissions early and can advise on compliant solutions before installation begins.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, covering issues arising from installation defects (such as sub-base failure or poor laying) when used as intended. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like lighting, composite decking, and pumps for water features. We also provide care guidance for planting and lawns to help everything establish well. Any snagging is handled promptly and professionally.
We design around your style and budget, with options including porcelain or sandstone patios, brick or stone edging, timber or composite decking, and contemporary slatted screening. Planting can range from evergreen structure to pollinator-friendly borders, plus instant-impact pleached trees where privacy is needed. Lighting choices include step lights, spike spots and subtle wall washes. We bring samples, explain maintenance levels, and recommend combinations that suit your home and garden orientation.
