Response within 24 hours
Fine Landscaping supports developers and housing associations across CR4 with complete external works packages. We create standout show home gardens, welcoming communal areas, and practical front and rear gardens that buyers can picture themselves using. Projects near Mitcham Junction station and around Figges Marsh often need smart access routes, robust turfing, and planting that looks good from day one. We coordinate smoothly with site managers to keep plots moving and handovers clean.
Mitcham’s mix of Victorian cottages, 1930s semis and modern estates means finishes must suit different streetscapes. On tighter plots we maximise usable space with low-maintenance layouts, neat boundary treatments and well-drained patios. For larger schemes close to Mitcham Common, we balance a greener feel with durable, vandal-resistant planting and hardwearing surfacing. Every design is built for kerb appeal and long-term upkeep, not just the sales launch.
Our process starts with a clear scope, drawings and materials schedule, then a phased plan that matches your build programme. We handle groundworks, levels, drainage, paving, turfing and planting with consistent quality control and snagging. You’ll get transparent reporting, tidy working areas and reliable aftercare options. Local clients trust us because we deliver what’s specified, when it’s needed, and we stand behind our workmanship.
We’re 10 minutes from Mitcham, so we can respond quickly to site changes and snag lists. In the London Borough of Merton, access and parking can be tight on residential roads, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours carefully. Ground conditions vary from compacted sub-bases on new estates to heavier soils near open green spaces, so we specify drainage layers and planting mixes accordingly. We also align boundary treatments and street planting with the character around Mitcham Cricket Green and nearby streets.

Costs depend on plot size, specification and phasing. As a guide, front garden packages often start around £1,500–£4,000 per plot, while rear gardens with patios, turf and planting commonly range £4,000–£12,000+. Driveways typically fall between £3,500–£10,000 depending on surface and drainage. Communal areas and street planting are usually priced per m² and by plant schedule after a site survey.
Timescales vary by plot numbers and weather, but a typical rear garden build (patio, turf, planting) is often 3–7 working days once access is clear. Front gardens and driveways can take 2–6 days depending on excavation depth and curing time. Communal areas are usually delivered in phases over several weeks. Programme is affected by site access, ground conditions, utilities, and changes to plot levels or specifications.
Many garden and landscaping works are permitted, but some elements can trigger rules—especially new or altered driveways, drainage to the highway, and boundary treatments over certain heights. Sustainable drainage is important, and permeable surfaces may be required for some driveway designs. For larger schemes, planning conditions can specify planting, materials or maintenance periods. We review drawings and conditions, flag risks early, and help ensure the landscaping meets London Borough of Merton requirements.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for installed hard landscaping such as paving, edging, kerbs and constructed features, subject to correct use and normal ground movement allowances. Planting and turf are living materials, so they’re covered by an establishment period and depend on watering and seasonal conditions; we’ll advise on care and can maintain sites under contract. Any snagging issues are logged and resolved promptly as part of handover.
We can deliver everything from clean, modern show home schemes to traditional layouts that suit older streets. Popular options include porcelain or sandstone patios, permeable block paving, resin-bound driveways, timber or composite fencing, brick walls, and metal railings for frontage. Planting can be evergreen structure with seasonal colour, pollinator-friendly mixes, or low-maintenance shrubs and grasses. We’ll recommend materials based on budget, durability, and the target buyer profile.
