Colliers Wood is a practical, well-connected part of the London Borough of Merton, with busy routes near the Tandem Centre and greener stretches by Wandle Park. We help housing developments present their best face with show home gardens, smart frontages and welcoming communal areas. Whether you’re completing a small infill scheme or upgrading shared spaces, our team delivers clean lines, robust materials and planting that looks good year-round. We also support phased handovers, keeping everything tidy for viewings.
Local projects often involve Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and modern apartments across SW19, South Wimbledon and towards Mitcham. Each property type brings different constraints—narrow side access, sloping plots, or shared entrances that must stay open. We design front and rear gardens that fit the architecture, improve kerb appeal and reduce long-term upkeep. For apartment blocks, we focus on durable communal landscaping and clear circulation routes.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and a practical specification that suits budgets and programme dates. We coordinate groundworks, drainage, paving, turfing and planting, then finish with snagging so the site is ready for marketing photos and viewings. You’ll get clear communication, tidy working practices and consistent quality control from start to completion. Many clients stay with us on maintenance contracts to protect the investment and keep standards high.
In the housing development landscaping Colliers Wood area, access can be tight and parking controlled, especially near South Wimbledon and main routes. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to minimise disruption and keep entrances clear. With riverside ground near the River Wandle, we pay close attention to drainage, soil improvement and plant choices that cope with moisture. We also align finishes with local streetscapes and any London Borough of Merton requirements for public-facing areas.

Costs vary by scope, access and specification. As a guide, front garden and driveway packages often start from £3,000–£10,000, while rear gardens with paving, turf and planting commonly fall between £6,000–£20,000. Communal area landscaping for small blocks can range from £10,000–£60,000+, depending on hard landscaping, lighting, irrigation and boundary works. We provide itemised quotes after a site visit.
Timescales depend on size, weather and programme phasing. A single show home garden is often completed in 1–2 weeks, while front and rear plots across a small development may take 3–8 weeks. Communal areas with paths, planting and boundary treatments can run 4–12 weeks. Lead times for materials, utility locations, ground conditions and access restrictions around SW19 can all affect scheduling.
Many garden and landscaping works are permitted, but some elements can trigger approvals. New or widened driveways may need attention to drainage and dropped kerbs, and works near highways or shared access routes can require permissions. Boundary heights, tree works and planting in public-facing areas may also be restricted. For housing development landscaping in London Borough of Merton, we check constraints early and advise on compliant options before work starts.
