Fine Landscaping supports developers and homeowners with high-spec external works across Streatham Hill and SW16. Whether you’re finishing a small infill scheme or a larger block, we create show home gardens that photograph well and feel inviting. We also deliver practical, durable landscaping for communal areas and entrances. Expect tidy sites, clear programmes, and a finish that complements Streatham’s period streetscape.
Streatham’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, mansion flats, and modern apartments calls for thoughtful detailing. Front gardens often need smart boundary treatments and planting that softens hard lines without blocking light. Rear gardens benefit from robust paving, lawn solutions, and drainage that copes with heavy use. We design layouts that suit real life, from prams and bikes to bins and deliveries.
We start with a site visit, levels check, and a buildable design that aligns with your programme. Our team installs groundworks, driveways, planting and finishes with quality control at handover. You’ll get transparent communication, staged sign-offs, and a snagging process that protects the final result. Many local clients choose our maintenance contracts to keep developments looking sharp long after completion.
We’re 10 minutes away and know the practicalities of working around Streatham High Road and busy residential streets. Access can be tight on mansion flat blocks, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and parking to minimise disruption. We also factor in local ground conditions, levels and drainage requirements to avoid future settlement. Our housing development landscaping in London Borough of Lambeth is tailored to council expectations and long-term durability.

Costs vary by specification, access and the amount of hard landscaping. As a guide, front garden and entrance upgrades often start around £3,000–£8,000, while a full rear garden with paving, lawn and planting is commonly £10,000–£25,000+. Communal areas and street planting are usually priced per phase, with allowances for soil improvement and irrigation where needed. We provide itemised estimates after a site survey.
Timescales depend on scope and sequencing with other trades. A single show home garden is often 1–2 weeks, while multiple plots plus communal areas may run 4–12 weeks in phases. Weather, curing times for concrete, lead times on materials, and access restrictions can all affect the programme. We agree a realistic schedule, coordinate deliveries, and keep you updated on progress and handover dates.
Many garden and driveway works are permitted development, but rules can apply to drainage, boundary heights, and works near highways. For example, new or altered driveways typically need compliant permeable surfacing or suitable drainage to avoid runoff to the street. Conservation considerations can also apply around period streets. We check the relevant Lambeth guidance, flag any permissions required, and can supply drawings and specifications for submissions.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for qualifying hard landscaping installations, including paving, edging, retaining details and driveway construction, when installed to our specification. The warranty covers defects arising from installation, not accidental damage or misuse. Planting is covered separately due to seasonal factors, with aftercare guidance provided at handover. We also offer ongoing maintenance contracts to protect the finish and keep sites looking consistent.
For a clean, premium look, clients often choose porcelain paving, sandstone, resin-bound surfacing, and clay or concrete block paving for driveways. Boundary treatments commonly include brick piers, timber slatted screens, metal railings, and closeboard fencing, paired with evergreen structure planting. Street planting and communal areas suit hardy shrubs, ornamental grasses and small trees for year-round interest. We guide choices based on budget, maintenance level and architectural style.
