If your garden has become overgrown, uneven or simply dated, we can bring it back to life with a structured renovation plan. We work across BR2, including streets around Shortlands station and towards Beckenham and Bromley. Whether you need a full clear-out, fence repairs or a fresh planting scheme, we focus on practical improvements that look great year-round. Every project starts with a site assessment so priorities and budgets are clear.
Shortlands has a mix of large Edwardian houses, Victorian villas and well-proportioned 1930s properties, often with mature boundaries and established lawns. These gardens can hide issues such as compacted soil, shaded corners and tired hardstanding that needs attention. Our garden renovation Shortlands area service is designed to respect period features while modernising how the space works day to day. We also regularly support nearby Ravensbourne and Bickley homeowners who want a similar uplift.
We begin with assessment, then move through clearance, repairs and surface preparation before replanting and lawn renovation. Patio cleaning, fence repairs and refresh planting are scheduled in the right order to avoid rework and keep disruption down. You’ll get a written scope, tidy working practices and consistent communication throughout. Many clients choose us for garden renovation in London Borough of Bromley because we’re local, responsive and stand behind the finish.
Shortlands gardens often have mature trees and shaded borders, so we select plants that cope with lower light and improve structure. Access can be tight on some roads near Shortlands station, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and parking to keep things smooth. We’re familiar with typical boundary layouts around Shortlands Golf Club and the mix of period and 1930s plots. Where relevant, we’ll also flag any Bromley council considerations before work starts.

Costs vary with garden size, access, and how much clearance and repair work is needed. As a guide, small tidy-up renovations with refresh planting and patio cleaning often start around £900–£2,500. Mid-size renovations including lawn renovation, fence repairs and replanting are commonly £2,500–£7,500. Larger, more complex gardens with extensive clearance, multiple repairs and new planting plans can be £7,500–£20,000+ after a site assessment.
Many Shortlands projects take 2–5 days for clearance, repairs, patio cleaning and a straightforward refresh planting. If you’re adding lawn renovation with levelling, overseeding and aftercare, allow 1–2 weeks depending on weather and drying times. Larger gardens or phased work (fencing, multiple borders, soil improvement) can run 2–4 weeks. Timings are affected by access, waste volumes, hidden repairs and seasonal planting availability.
Most garden renovation work—clearance, planting, lawn work, patio cleaning and like-for-like fence repairs—doesn’t need planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re changing boundary heights, working near highways, or if your property is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll discuss what’s planned during the assessment and help you check any London Borough of Bromley requirements before committing. If approvals are needed, we can advise on the next steps.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for qualifying installation and repair elements, such as fencing and agreed structural garden works. The warranty covers defects arising from our installation, subject to normal use and reasonable maintenance. Living materials are naturally variable, so plants and lawns are covered by practical aftercare guidance rather than a blanket guarantee, but we’ll specify what’s included for your project and how to keep everything thriving.
We tailor the finish to your home and how you use the garden. Popular choices include refreshed mixed borders with evergreen structure, low-maintenance planting for shaded areas, and lawn renovation for a cleaner, level surface. For hard areas, we can advise on gentle patio cleaning methods and re-pointing repairs where needed. Fencing options range from closeboard for privacy to decorative panels for period homes. We’ll guide you on style, durability and upkeep.
