If your outdoor space needs a rethink, our team plans and builds gardens that suit how you live. We work across SE6, from plots near Catford Broadway to family gardens by Mountsfield Park. Whether you want a cleaner layout, richer planting, or a lawn you can actually use, we’ll shape the garden around your priorities. Expect clear communication, careful workmanship, and a finish that lasts.
Catford’s mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and ex-council properties creates very different garden challenges. Narrow side access, long rear gardens and tired, compacted lawns are common, especially around Hither Green and Bellingham. We design with those realities in mind—practical circulation, manageable planting, and robust surfaces where needed. Our planting design balances structure and seasonal colour without creating a maintenance burden.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a clear design direction, then provide a detailed scope and programme. Soft landscaping is installed with proper ground preparation, quality topsoil and correct planting techniques to improve establishment. You’ll get aftercare guidance and the option of maintenance plans to keep everything thriving. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, respectful neighbours-first working, and consistent site tidiness.
As landscape gardener contractors in London Borough of Lewisham, we’re used to mixed soil conditions, shaded boundaries and compacted ground from older lawns. Parking and access can be tight on residential streets, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for mature trees and neighbouring roots when specifying planting and lawn build-ups. If you’re in Grove Park or Downham, we’ll tailor the approach to plot size and exposure.

Costs vary by scope and access, but typical Catford projects fall into a few bands. Planting design and border planting often starts around £600–£1,500. Lawn installation commonly ranges from £1,200–£3,500 depending on size and ground preparation. A garden renovation with new beds, soil improvement and planting is often £3,000–£12,000+. We’ll survey first and provide an itemised, sensible range.
Timescales depend on design complexity, weather and site access. A straightforward planting refresh or border rework can take 1–3 days. Lawn installation is often 2–5 days including preparation and edging. Full garden renovation projects typically run 1–3 weeks, especially where soil improvement and phased planting are needed. We agree a programme in advance and keep you updated if conditions change.
Most soft landscaping—planting, lawns, borders and general garden renovation—doesn’t require planning permission. However, rules can apply for works affecting protected trees, changes near boundaries, or if your property is in a conservation area. If drainage alterations or significant level changes are involved, extra checks may be needed. We’ll flag likely constraints early, help you understand options, and recommend when to contact Lewisham Council.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for agreed installation elements, covering issues caused by our construction methods (for example, failures due to poor preparation or incorrect installation). Planting is living material, so it’s covered differently—success depends on season, weather and aftercare. We supply clear aftercare instructions and can maintain the garden under a plan to support strong establishment and long-term performance.
We offer garden design, planting design and soft landscaping tailored to your style and maintenance preference. Popular choices include structured evergreen shrubs with seasonal perennials, wildlife-friendly borders, and low-maintenance planting around patios and paths. For lawns, we can install quality turf or seed depending on timing and budget, with proper edging and soil improvement. We’ll recommend options based on light levels, soil condition and how you use the space.
