If your outdoor space feels cramped, overlooked or hard to use, a well-planned makeover can change daily life at home. We deliver complete transformations across SW9, from smart courtyard gardens to family-friendly layouts. Many of our projects sit within easy reach of Stockwell tube station and Stockwell Park, so we understand the local mix of property styles and garden sizes. Expect clear design choices, tidy workmanship and finishes that suit your home.
Stockwell’s Victorian terraces and Georgian houses often come with long, narrow plots, level changes and older boundary walls that need careful handling. Post-war estates can present shared access routes, communal considerations and compact patios that benefit from clever zoning. We tailor garden makeovers Stockwell area homeowners request to the way they actually use the space—dining, play, storage and low-maintenance planting. Whether you’re near Brixton, Oval or Clapham, we design to maximise privacy, light and flow.
Our process starts with a site visit, measured survey and a design that balances aesthetics with durability. We manage hard landscaping, soft landscaping, planting plans, lighting and water features, coordinating deliveries and trades to keep disruption down. You’ll receive a clear scope of works, realistic programme and aftercare advice for new lawns and planting. Local homeowners choose us for consistent communication, premium materials and workmanship backed by warranty.
Working in the London Borough of Lambeth means factoring in access, parking controls and narrow side returns common around Stockwell. We plan deliveries and material storage to minimise disruption, especially on busy streets near Stockwell War Memorial. Ground conditions vary, so we assess drainage and sub-bases carefully before laying patios or installing water features. Designs also account for privacy and overlooking typical of terrace gardens.

Costs vary by size, access and specification. As a guide, a small courtyard refresh with paving and planting may start around £4,000–£8,000. Mid-size makeovers with new patio/decking, lighting and structured planting often fall in the £10,000–£25,000 range. Larger, fully designed gardens with drainage works, bespoke joinery and water features can be £30,000+. We provide an itemised estimate after a site survey.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks for smaller gardens and 3–6 weeks for full transformations. Timescales depend on demolition, groundwork depth, drainage needs, curing times for concrete bases, and lead times for specialist materials. Access in SW9 can also affect logistics and delivery scheduling. We agree a programme before starting and keep you updated daily, so you know what’s happening and when each stage will be completed.
Many garden works are permitted development, such as patios, decking at low level, planting and most landscaping changes. However, rules can apply to drainage (especially for non-permeable surfacing), boundary walls/fences, raised platforms, and listed buildings or conservation areas. We’ll flag any potential permissions early and can advise on permeable paving or soakaway solutions. If approvals are needed, we help you prepare the right information before work begins.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on hard landscaping installations, covering issues such as structural failure due to installation defects (for example, sub-base or laying method). Materials are also covered by their manufacturers’ guarantees where applicable. Planting is living material, so it’s covered differently; we provide clear aftercare guidance to maximise success. If something isn’t right, we respond quickly and put it right.
We offer a wide range of options, including porcelain or sandstone patios, composite or hardwood decking, rendered planters, pergolas, and low-voltage garden lighting. Planting can be modern architectural, wildlife-friendly, or low-maintenance evergreen structure with seasonal colour. Water features range from subtle rills to self-contained fountains. We’ll bring samples, discuss how you use the space, and recommend finishes that suit your home and budget.
