If your borders feel tired or bare, our team can transform them with thoughtful planting design and expert installation. We work across SE12, including around Lee Green crossroads and near Manor House Gardens, creating gardens that look good in every season. From border planting to feature trees, we balance colour, scent, height and texture. Expect tidy workmanship and plants chosen to suit your space, not a one-size plan.
Lee Green has a mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis and 1930s houses, often with long rear gardens and narrower side access. We’re used to working with established lawns, mature fences and existing patios, integrating new shrubs and perennials without disturbing what already works. Whether you’re close to Lee station or towards Hither Green, we tailor planting to light levels, privacy needs and how you use the garden. The result is a scheme that matures well and stays manageable.
Our process starts with a site visit, then a clear planting plan covering layout, spacing and seasonal interest. We handle plant supply, delivery and careful planting, followed by mulching to retain moisture and suppress weeds. You’ll get straightforward aftercare guidance, plus we can return for seasonal tweaks if needed. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clean finishes and planting that thrives beyond the first few weeks.
Across the London Borough of Lewisham, gardens can vary from free-draining spots to heavier, compacted soils from building works. We assess drainage, sun patterns and wind exposure, then adjust plant choices and soil improvement accordingly. Access can be tight around terraces, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to keep disruption low. Where parking is limited near Leegate Shopping Centre, we schedule efficiently and keep materials organised on site.

Costs vary with bed size, plant density and whether you want mature specimens. As a guide, small border refreshes often start from £450–£900 including supply and planting. Medium schemes for several borders typically fall around £1,200–£2,800. Larger gardens with trees, shrubs, perennials, bulbs and soil improvement can be £3,000–£7,500+. We provide a clear breakdown after a site visit.
Most planting jobs take 1–2 days for a straightforward border, and 2–5 days for multiple beds with soil preparation, tree planting and mulching. Timescales depend on access, how much ground needs improving, and the number/size of plants. If we’re removing old shrubs or reshaping borders, allow extra time. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule and keep the site tidy each day.
Garden planting is usually permitted and doesn’t need planning permission. The main exceptions are protected trees, conservation areas, or work affecting roots near a Tree Preservation Order (TPO). If you’re adding or removing trees, we’ll flag any likely restrictions and advise on checks with Lewisham Council where needed. For most border planting, shrubs, perennials and bulbs, there are no approvals required.
We back our work with a 10-year warranty on workmanship for installed elements, giving you confidence that planting has been set out and installed correctly. Living plants are affected by weather and aftercare, so plant guarantees depend on supplier terms and proper watering, especially in the first season. We provide aftercare instructions and can offer maintenance visits to maximise establishment and reduce replacement risk.
We can create anything from low-maintenance evergreen structure to colourful cottage-style borders. Popular options include layered shrub planting, pollinator-friendly perennials, spring bulbs, ornamental grasses, and feature trees for screening or shade. We’ll also advise on mulching types and soil conditioners to support healthy growth. During the design stage, we match plants to your sun levels, style preferences and how much upkeep you want.
