Soho’s outdoor spaces often need smart planning to feel calm and usable, especially around W1. Whether you’re near Soho Square or walking distance from Carnaby Street, we create gardens that suit busy city life while still feeling private. Expect a complete makeover: layout, levels, surfaces and planting designed to work together. We also integrate lighting so the garden earns its keep after dark.
We regularly work across the Soho area and nearby Covent Garden and Fitzrovia, where gardens are typically compact and surrounded by tall buildings. Georgian townhouses, mansion flats and commercial conversions often come with courtyards, terraces or shared rear spaces that need careful access planning. Shade, wind funnelling and overlooked boundaries are common challenges. Our designs balance structure and softness so the space feels generous, not cramped.
Your project starts with a site visit and measured survey, followed by a clear concept and materials schedule. We manage hard landscaping, soft landscaping, decking, patios, planting, lighting and water features as one coordinated build. You’ll get transparent staging, tidy working practices and consistent communication throughout. Homeowners choose us for dependable timelines, craftsmanship, and a finish that stands up to London living.
Garden makeovers in City of Westminster often involve tight access, strict delivery windows and considerate neighbour management. In Soho, many properties have limited storage, shared entrances and basement lightwells, so we plan logistics carefully and keep sites organised. We also factor in drainage and runoff on hard surfaces, selecting permeable options where suitable. If permissions or building management approvals are needed, we help you navigate the process early.

Costs in Soho vary with access, levels and specification. For a small courtyard refresh with new paving and planting, budgets often start around £6,000–£12,000. More involved garden makeovers Soho area projects with redesign, drainage, lighting and bespoke joinery commonly fall between £15,000–£35,000. Premium builds including decking, water features and high-end stone can reach £40,000+. We provide an itemised estimate after a site visit.
Most Soho makeovers take 1–3 weeks for compact courtyards, depending on demolition, drainage and paving complexity. Larger or more technical projects with decking, lighting circuits and water features typically run 3–6 weeks. Timescales are influenced by access restrictions, curing times for concrete and pointing, and lead times for bespoke materials. We agree a programme before starting and keep you updated if anything changes.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as replacing paving, adding planting, or installing low-level lighting. However, City of Westminster rules can be stricter for listed buildings, conservation areas, boundary treatments, and some raised decks or structures. Drainage and surface water requirements may also apply when changing large areas of hardstanding. We flag likely constraints, check guidance, and can work with your architect or managing agent where needed.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, covering issues arising from installation rather than misuse or accidental damage. This includes items such as patios, retaining edges and structural decking subframes when built to our specification. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to products like lighting transformers, composite boards and pumps. We also provide care guidance so planting and finishes settle in well.
We tailor designs to your space and how you use it. Popular choices include porcelain patios for a crisp, low-maintenance look, natural stone for classic character, and composite or hardwood decking for roof terraces and level changes. Planting can range from architectural evergreens to shade-tolerant schemes, with irrigation if required. We can add discreet lighting, built-in seating and compact water features, then help you choose finishes that suit your property.
