If your garden needs a full refresh or a smarter layout, our team delivers tailored design and build across Dartford. We work in DA1 and DA2, including projects near Central Park and around Greenhithe. Expect planting plans that suit light levels and soil, plus crisp lawn installation and border planting. The result is a garden that feels considered, usable and easy to keep looking good.
Dartford’s mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and new developments means no two plots behave the same. Narrow side access and long rear gardens often call for staged deliveries, compact machinery and careful spoil removal. For newer estates, we frequently improve builder-grade turf, drainage and planting to add privacy and colour. Our planting design balances structure, seasonal interest and low-maintenance choices for busy households.
We start with a site visit, discuss how you use the space, then produce a clear proposal covering garden design, soft landscaping and planting. Every job is programmed with realistic lead times, and we keep the site orderly with daily clean-downs. You’ll get practical aftercare guidance plus optional maintenance plans to protect your investment. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, straightforward communication and dependable follow-through.
As landscape gardener contractors in Dartford Borough, we plan around local access and parking constraints, especially on tighter residential streets. Ground conditions can vary, so we assess drainage and compaction before lawn installation or renovation work. We also factor in proximity to major routes like the Dartford Crossing when scheduling deliveries and waste collections. Our approach suits everything from older terraces to modern plots in Wilmington and Stone.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. As a guide in Dartford, planting design and soft landscaping might start around £1,500–£4,000 for smaller gardens, while full garden renovation projects commonly range from £8,000–£25,000+. Lawn installation is often £12–£25 per m² depending on preparation and turf type. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit, so you can prioritise phases if needed.
Timescales depend on scope and weather. A straightforward lawn installation or border planting can take 1–3 days, while a soft landscaping refresh with new beds and shrubs often takes 1–2 weeks. Larger garden renovation projects may run 3–6 weeks, especially if groundworks, drainage or multiple planting zones are involved. Access, spoil removal, curing times and plant availability can all affect the programme.
Most garden landscaping, planting and lawn works are permitted and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, working near boundaries, affecting protected trees, or your property is listed or in a conservation area. Some drainage changes and structures can also trigger requirements. We’ll flag any likely constraints during the survey and can help you check guidance relevant to Dartford Borough before work begins.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying installed elements, covering defects caused by installation rather than normal wear. This includes issues such as settlement from inadequate preparation or failures linked to workmanship where applicable. Plants are living materials, so guarantees on planting depend on season, aftercare and watering; we’ll explain what’s covered in writing. Optional maintenance plans help protect planting and lawns long-term.
We offer garden design, planting design and soft landscaping tailored to how you want to use the space.
