Brockley gardens deserve planting that looks considered, not случайно thrown in. Whether you’re near Brockley Market or walking distance from Hilly Fields, we create planting schemes that suit the light, aspect and how you use the space. Expect well-balanced borders, reliable plant supply, and careful installation. The result is a garden that settles quickly and improves season after season.
Homes across SE4 often come with compact rear gardens, long borders and mature boundaries—especially around Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions. We’re used to working with narrow side access, existing patios and established trees that affect shade and moisture. For clients in the garden planting Brockley area, we tailor plant choices to reduce maintenance while keeping the garden full and layered. If you’re renovating or refreshing, we can phase planting to match your budget and timeline.
We start with a site visit, discuss style and maintenance levels, then produce a planting design with clear plant lists and spacing. Our team prepares the ground properly, plants at the right depth, and finishes with mulching to lock in moisture and suppress weeds. You’ll get practical aftercare guidance, and we only specify plants we can source to a high standard. Homeowners choose us for dependable scheduling, tidy workmanship and planting that performs in real gardens.
Across the London Borough of Lewisham, Brockley plots can vary from free-draining beds to heavier, compacted soils after building works. We improve planting areas with the right composts and conditioners, then choose plants that cope with the site’s sun, shade and wind. Access can be tight behind terraces, so we plan deliveries and plant handling to protect hallways and paths. We also consider street parking and timing so the job runs smoothly from start to finish.

Costs depend on bed size, plant density and whether you want design, supply and installation. As a guide, small border refreshes often start around £450–£900, while a full planting scheme for a typical SE4 rear garden commonly falls between £1,500–£4,000. Larger projects with tree planting, extensive shrubs, bulbs and soil improvement can be £5,000+. We provide a clear breakdown before any work begins.
Most planting jobs take 1–2 days for a border or small garden, including ground preparation and mulching. A full garden scheme with multiple beds, shrub planting and one or two trees typically takes 2–5 days. Timescales vary with access, the amount of soil preparation needed, and whether we’re working around existing features. If plants need ordering in, we’ll confirm lead times and book installation accordingly.
Garden planting, border planting and mulching are usually permitted and don’t require planning permission. The main exceptions are protected trees, work within a conservation area, or properties affected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs). If you’re adding or removing trees, we’ll advise on the checks needed and can help you understand the process. We always work responsibly and in line with local rules where they apply.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty, covering the standard of installation, edging and finishing where applicable. Living plants are affected by weather, watering and site conditions, so plant guarantees are more specific: we supply healthy stock, plant correctly, and provide aftercare guidance to maximise establishment. If something fails due to installation issues, we’ll put it right. We can also offer maintenance visits to support long-term success.
We can create anything from contemporary, architectural planting to softer cottage-style borders. Popular options include evergreen structure with shrubs, long-flowering perennials, spring bulbs for early colour, and specimen trees for height and privacy. We also specify mulches to suit the look and the soil—such as composted bark or organic soil improvers. We’ll help you choose a palette that fits your home, your garden’s aspect, and how much upkeep you want.
