That overgrown patch behind your Carshalton home deserves better than neglect. Whether it's a compact Victorian terrace plot or sprawling suburban lawn, breathing new life into tired gardens transforms how you use your space.
Response within 24 hours
Carshalton's mix of housing creates wonderfully diverse garden challenges. From narrow side returns crying out for clever design to waterlogged clay plots near the Wandle, each renovation tells its own story. Local knowledge matters when you're dealing with everything from mature oak roots to the peculiar drainage patterns around Carshalton Ponds.
Garden renovation goes deeper than surface prettiness. Soil improvement, proper drainage installation, and understanding how Sutton's microclimate affects plant choices all factor into lasting transformations. The process typically starts with stripping back overgrowth, assessing what's worth keeping, then building up layers - literally and aesthetically - to create something both beautiful and functional.
Twenty years tackling SM5's garden quirks teaches you things. Like which plants actually thrive in that heavy clay near Hackbridge, or why certain Wallington gardens need raised beds to combat waterlogging.




Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most complete garden overhauls in SM5 fall between £8,000-£25,000, though smaller refresh projects start around £3,500. Victorian terrace gardens usually sit at the lower end, while larger detached properties with complex landscaping needs reach higher figures.
Absolutely - from Carshalton Beeches down to the ponds, across to Wallington borders and up through Hackbridge. The whole SM5 area falls within our regular working territory.
Typical renovations take 2-4 weeks from start to finish, though extensive projects involving structural changes might stretch to 6 weeks. Weather plays its part too, especially during Sutton's unpredictable springs.
All structural elements - patios, walls, major landscaping features - carry our decade-long guarantee. Plants get a full year's replacement promise, giving them time to establish properly in your garden's specific conditions.
Side returns are practically a Carshalton specialty! These tricky strips respond brilliantly to vertical planting, clever paving patterns, and mirrors. We've transformed dozens from forgotten alleyways into genuine garden rooms.
