Soho gardens work hard: compact courtyards, roof terraces and shaded pockets that need clever planning. Whether you’re near Soho Square or walking distance from Carnaby Street, we renovate outdoor spaces to suit busy City living. We combine assessment, clearance and repairs with refresh planting to lift the look quickly. Expect neat edges, improved drainage and a finish that feels considered rather than patched together.
In the Soho area, we often work with Georgian townhouses, mansion flats and commercial conversions where access is tight and neighbours are close. Older brickwork, ageing paving and tired boundary fencing are common, especially around Fitzrovia and Covent Garden. We’re used to restoring small spaces so they feel larger, brighter and easier to maintain. Planting is selected for shade, wind and the urban microclimate typical of W1.
Every renovation starts with a practical site assessment, followed by a clear plan for clearance, repairs, replanting and lawn renovation where space allows. We protect communal areas, keep noise and mess controlled, and leave the site clean at the end of each day. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations, and we only recommend materials that suit the location and footfall. Homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for reliable scheduling, tidy teams and a premium finish.
Soho’s W1 streets can mean restricted access, limited parking and strict delivery windows, so we plan logistics in advance. We’re familiar with City of Westminster expectations around waste disposal, noise and working hours, and we keep neighbours in mind. Many properties have shared entrances or basement lightwells, so we use smaller equipment and careful protection. Materials and planting are selected to cope with shade, reflected heat and heavier foot traffic.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Garden renovation costs in Soho vary with access, waste volume and the scope of repairs. As a guide, a small courtyard refresh (clearance, patio clean, minor repairs and planting) often starts around £1,500–£3,500. Mid-size renovations with fence repairs, new borders and improved surfacing are commonly £4,000–£12,000. Larger projects involving significant paving repairs, drainage improvements and extensive replanting can run £12,000–£25,000+.
Timescales depend on size, access and how much repair work is needed. A straightforward clearance, patio cleaning and refresh planting can take 1–3 days. A more involved renovation with fence repairs, replanting and lawn renovation typically takes 1–3 weeks. If we’re waiting on specialist materials, dealing with drainage issues or scheduling around building management rules in mansion flats, the programme may extend slightly.
Most garden renovation work is permitted development, such as planting, lawn renovation, patio cleaning, like-for-like repairs and typical fence repairs. However, City of Westminster rules can affect listed buildings, conservation areas and changes to boundary heights or hard landscaping that impacts drainage. If your property is a commercial conversion or managed block, there may also be freeholder conditions. We’ll flag likely permissions early and help you check requirements before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying installation work, covering workmanship on items such as repaired or rebuilt paving areas, structural edging and fencing installed by our team. It does not cover damage from misuse, third-party alterations, extreme weather events or lack of routine maintenance. Plants are living materials, so planting is covered by a short establishment period subject to correct watering and care. All warranty terms are confirmed in writing.
In Soho, clients often choose porcelain or natural stone for clean, low-maintenance paving, paired with slimline raised beds to maximise space. For boundaries, closeboard fencing or contemporary slatted screens are popular for privacy. Planting schemes commonly use evergreen structure, shade-tolerant perennials and climbers to soften brick walls. We’ll guide you through options based on light levels, access constraints and the look you want, then source durable materials suited to W1 use.
