Brockley buyers notice the details, from the first step off the pavement to the final view from the rear patio. We deliver housing development landscaping that elevates show home gardens, communal areas and streetscapes across SE4, including around Brockley Market and Hilly Fields. Our team coordinates hard landscaping, planting and finishing touches so plots present consistently at handover. The result is kerb appeal that matches the quality of the build.
The Brockley area blends Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions alongside modern infill and apartment schemes. That mix means tight side access, shared boundaries and a strong expectation for period-appropriate materials and planting. We design front gardens, rear gardens and driveways to sit comfortably with neighbouring façades and mature street trees. For developments near Honor Oak, Crofton Park and New Cross, we plan layouts that work for daily use as well as marketing photos.
We start with a site walkover, levels and drainage checks, then produce a clear scope, programme and specification. Works are delivered plot-by-plot or in phases, with snagging lists and tidy handovers for sales teams and residents. You’ll get transparent communication, safe working practices and robust materials fit for high footfall. Local homeowners and developers choose us for dependable delivery and ongoing maintenance contracts that keep schemes looking sharp.
Brockley sites often involve narrow access, controlled parking and careful logistics around busy routes to Ladywell and New Cross. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to reduce neighbour impact and keep sites compliant. Ground conditions can vary with made ground and compacted sub-bases, so we prioritise proper excavation, drainage falls and stable foundations. Our housing development landscaping in London Borough of Lewisham is specified to perform well and look right beside period streetscapes.

Costs vary by plot size, specification and how much hard landscaping is required. As a guide, front garden makeovers often start from £1,500–£4,000, while rear gardens commonly range £6,000–£20,000+ depending on paving, turf, lighting and planting. Driveways are typically £90–£160 per m² installed, with boundary treatments and street planting priced per metre or per tree. We provide itemised estimates after a site visit.
Timescales depend on the number of plots, access and weather. A single front garden can take 1–3 days, while a typical rear garden with paving and turf is often 1–2 weeks. Communal areas and street planting are usually delivered in phases alongside build milestones and utilities sign-off. Lead times can increase if bespoke gates, paving or specimen plants are required, or if groundworks reveal drainage issues.
Many garden and landscaping works are permitted development, but there are important exceptions. New or altered driveways may need permeable surfacing or drainage to comply with SuDS rules, and boundary walls/fences have height limits, especially to the highway. If your scheme is near conservation areas or has planning conditions, extra constraints can apply. We review drawings and conditions, advise on compliant materials, and can support any permissions needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping installations, covering workmanship-related issues such as sub-base failure, settlement and jointing defects, subject to correct use and normal ground conditions. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like paving, lighting and composite decking. Soft landscaping is living material, so we agree clear establishment periods and maintenance requirements. We also offer maintenance contracts to protect the finish and keep communal areas performing well.
For Brockley schemes, popular choices include porcelain patios for clean show-home lines, sandstone for a warmer period feel, and permeable block paving or resin-bound gravel for driveways. Boundary treatments often combine brick piers, timber slats and metal railings to suit Victorian and Edwardian streets. Planting frequently uses evergreen structure with seasonal colour and low-maintenance groundcover. We tailor palettes and specifications to your target buyer, maintenance budget and site conditions.
