That overgrown patch behind your Sanderstead home deserves better. Whether you're battling clay soil on the slopes near Hamsey Green or wrestling with a forgotten Victorian garden, transformation awaits.
Response within 24 hours
Sanderstead's mix of period properties and newer developments each bring unique garden challenges. Those generous plots along Limpsfield Road might hide decades of neglect, while compact South Croydon terraces need clever design to maximise every square metre. Years of working across CR2 have taught us which plants thrive in our chalky soil and how to create privacy despite neighbouring properties.
A proper makeover starts with understanding your garden's bones. Drainage issues plague many Purley Oaks properties built on London clay. Meanwhile, mature trees (often protected) in established Sanderstead gardens create shade puzzles requiring specialist plant knowledge. Design plans incorporate practical elements like bin storage and side access whilst transforming unusable slopes into terraced havens.
Local knowledge matters when you're reshaping outdoor spaces. Having transformed everything from tiny courtyards near South Croydon station to sprawling gardens backing onto Riddlesdown Common, the quirks of CR2 soil and weather hold no surprises.

Basic makeovers typically start around £3,000-£5,000, covering lawn renovation and border replanting. Comprehensive transformations with patios, lighting and structural planting usually range £8,000-£20,000, depending on your garden's size and complexity.
Absolutely - from the tree-lined roads near Selsdon Park to the hillside properties of Hamsey Green. Regular projects span Purley Oaks through to the conservation areas of old Sanderstead village.
Smaller refreshes often finish within 7-10 days. Full-scale transformations typically need 3-5 weeks, accounting for weather delays and any unexpected discoveries like old soakaways or buried concrete.
Every makeover includes decade-long coverage on construction elements - patios, walls, and drainage systems. Plants come with a replacement guarantee for the first growing season, ensuring everything establishes properly in your specific conditions.
Definitely. Many Sanderstead gardens contain mature shrubs, established trees or original features worth preserving. Blending new design elements with existing character often creates the most satisfying transformations whilst keeping costs manageable.
