Westminster developments demand landscaping that complements historic streetscapes and modern architecture alike. We create show home gardens, front and rear gardens, and smart boundary treatments that suit schemes near Victoria and Whitehall. Whether you’re finishing a courtyard for mansion flats or a podium garden for luxury apartments, we deliver clean lines, robust planting and crisp detailing. Expect a site-ready team used to working around tight access and live environments.
In the City of Westminster, property styles range from Georgian townhouses to high-end apartment blocks, each with different expectations for materials and finish. We specify hardwearing paving, discreet drainage and planting that performs in shaded courtyards and windy terraces. For SW1 plots, we often design with year-round structure, low-litter trees and resilient groundcover to keep communal areas looking immaculate. Our layouts also consider resident circulation, bin routes and service access from day one.
We start with a site survey and buildable design, then provide clear specifications, programmes and RAMS to support your build team. Installation is managed by a dedicated supervisor with quality checks at each stage, from sub-base preparation to final planting. We offer practical aftercare plans and maintenance contracts to protect your investment through defects and beyond. Clients trust us for tidy sites, predictable timelines and workmanship backed by a written warranty.
Westminster sites often involve restricted loading, controlled parking and strict neighbour considerations. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to suit the City of Westminster requirements and your site rules. Many SW1 plots have limited soil depth or podium build-ups, so we specify lightweight substrates and irrigation where needed. Finishes are chosen to sit comfortably alongside nearby landmarks such as Westminster Abbey and St James’s Park.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary by access, specification and the mix of hard and soft landscaping. As a guide, show home gardens often start from £8,000–£25,000, while communal courtyards and podium areas commonly range from £25,000–£150,000+. Driveways and paving can be £120–£220 per m² depending on stone choice and groundwork. We provide itemised estimates aligned to your programme and drawings.
Timescales depend on phasing, access and how much groundwork is required. A single show home garden typically takes 1–3 weeks, while front and rear gardens across multiple plots may run 3–8 weeks in phases. Communal areas can take 4–12+ weeks, especially with podium build-ups, irrigation and lighting. Weather, lead times for stone, and council constraints can also affect schedules.
Many garden works are permitted, but Westminster has tighter controls in conservation areas and around listed buildings. Driveways may need permission if you’re altering access, changing levels, or using non-permeable surfacing over certain areas. Boundary treatments can also be restricted by height and visibility rules. We review drawings, advise on permeable options and liaise with your team to confirm what approvals are required before work starts.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on qualifying hard landscaping elements, covering issues arising from installation such as failed sub-bases, movement due to poor preparation, or incorrect jointing. Planting is covered under an agreed establishment period, provided the maintenance and watering plan is followed. Any manufacturer warranties on materials are passed on to you. Clear handover notes help protect your warranty long-term.
For premium schemes, we often specify natural stone paving, high-quality clay pavers, resin-bound surfacing for permeability, and architectural timber or metal edging. Planting palettes typically include multi-stem trees, evergreen structure, ornamental grasses and shade-tolerant groundcover for courtyards. We can integrate lighting, irrigation and discreet screening to improve privacy. Our team helps balance aesthetics, durability, and maintenance demands for residents and managing agents.
