If your garden needs a fresh layout, better planting, or a complete reset, our team brings design-led landscaping to Nunhead. We regularly work around SE15, including homes near Nunhead Cemetery and Telegraph Hill Park. Whether you want a new lawn, stronger borders, or a softer, greener look, we build gardens that mature beautifully. Every plan is tailored to how you use the space day to day.
Nunhead’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period cottages often come with long, narrow plots, shaded corners and established boundaries. We design planting that copes with partial shade, improves privacy, and adds structure through the seasons. For compact gardens, we prioritise circulation, storage and low-maintenance planting without losing character. Our planting design and soft landscaping are chosen to complement period features rather than compete with them.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a clear brief, then propose a practical garden design and planting plan. Our installers work cleanly and safely, with careful protection of paths, steps and neighbouring boundaries. You’ll receive a written scope, staged schedule and aftercare advice, plus optional maintenance plans to keep everything thriving. Many clients choose us because we’re reliable, consistent, and only 25 minutes away when you need support.
As landscape gardener contractors in London Borough of Southwark, we’re used to Nunhead access constraints, shared side returns and tight rear entrances. We plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption and keep pavements clear. Soil conditions vary from compacted ground in renovated plots to lighter, free-draining areas, so we adjust preparation, mulching and plant choice accordingly. Where boundaries meet neighbours, we prioritise tidy edging and considerate working hours.

Costs vary by access, ground condition and the amount of design and planting required. As a guide, planting design and border planting often start from £800–£2,500, while soft landscaping and lawn installation commonly range from £2,500–£8,000. Full garden renovation projects can be £8,000–£30,000+ depending on size and specification. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Small planting and lawn projects typically take 1–3 days, while a more involved soft landscaping refresh may take 1–2 weeks. Full garden renovations often run 2–6 weeks, depending on demolition, groundworks, planting seasons and drying times. Access through terraced properties, skip permits, and weather can affect the programme. We agree a realistic schedule upfront and keep you updated as work progresses.
Most garden works—such as planting, lawns, borders and general soft landscaping—don’t require planning permission. However, rules can apply for significant changes to levels, large structures, tree works (especially if protected), and drainage or paving that affects runoff. If your property is in a conservation area or near protected features, extra checks may be needed. We flag likely requirements early and can help you confirm with Southwark guidance.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for installed elements, covering issues that arise from our installation rather than wear and tear or misuse. Planting is living material, so it’s covered through clear aftercare guidance and a practical establishment period, with replacements considered where failure is linked to installation or unsuitable conditions. We also offer maintenance plans to support healthy growth and long-term performance.
We create garden design and planting design to match your style and maintenance preferences—from structured evergreen frameworks to softer, wildlife-friendly borders. Popular options include layered border planting, specimen trees, multi-stem shrubs for screening, and robust lawn installation for family use. We’ll recommend plants for sun/shade, soil and pet-friendly needs, and can phase renovations to suit budgets. Samples and visuals help you choose with confidence.
