Richmond gardens deserve a considered approach, whether you’re near Richmond Green or backing onto routes leading to Richmond Park. Our team delivers complete landscape gardening—Garden Design, Planting Design, Soft Landscaping and Lawn Installation—tailored to how you use the space. We can refresh tired borders, rework layouts, and establish planting that looks good year-round. Work is planned to minimise disruption and keep your property looking smart throughout.
Across TW9 and TW10 we regularly work on Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and riverside properties where proportions, views and privacy matter. Many gardens have mature trees, shaded corners and heritage-style boundaries that need sensitive renovation. We design borders that complement period architecture and choose plants that cope with dappled light and variable moisture. Where space is tight, we prioritise clean circulation, practical storage and planting that doesn’t overwhelm.
We start with a site visit to assess levels, drainage, access and existing planting, then provide a clear plan and itemised scope. Our process covers everything from Border Planting and Tree & Shrub Planting to full Garden Renovation and ongoing Maintenance Plans. You’ll have a dedicated point of contact, tidy working practices, and regular progress updates. Homeowners choose us for consistent quality, careful detailing and dependable aftercare.
Richmond plots often combine clay-heavy ground with shaded areas from mature trees, so we specify soil improvement and plant choices accordingly. Access can be restricted near terraces and riverside roads, so we plan deliveries, parking and waste removal to keep things smooth. We also consider conservation-area sensitivities around older properties and advise on suitable materials and planting styles. If approvals are needed, we help you understand the council’s requirements before work begins.

Costs vary with access, ground preparation and the amount of planting. As a guide in Richmond, planting and border refreshes often start from £800–£2,500, while lawn installation is commonly £1,500–£4,000 depending on size and prep. A full garden renovation with design, soft landscaping and new planting can range from £8,000–£30,000+. We provide an itemised quotation after a site visit.
Smaller jobs such as border planting or shrub replacement typically take 1–3 days. Lawn installation is often 2–5 days including ground preparation, edging and aftercare setup. A full renovation with design, clearance, soil improvement and phased planting usually takes 2–6 weeks. Timescales depend on garden size, access for materials, weather, and whether we’re working around existing trees, patios or drainage issues.
Most soft landscaping, planting, turfing and general garden renovation works are permitted and don’t require planning permission. However, restrictions can apply in conservation areas, and any work affecting protected trees may need checks for Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs). If you’re altering levels, adding substantial structures, or working close to boundaries, rules can also change. We flag likely requirements early and help you confirm details with the council where needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for agreed elements of our landscaping projects, giving you peace of mind once the garden is complete. This covers installation-related issues such as defects arising from our construction or fitting methods. Living materials like plants and turf are dependent on season, weather and aftercare, so we advise on watering and maintenance to maximise establishment. Any concerns are handled promptly and transparently.
We tailor options to your property style and how you use the space. Popular choices in Richmond include structured evergreen frameworks, wildlife-friendly mixed borders, shade-tolerant planting under trees, and resilient lawns for family gardens. We can incorporate specimen shrubs, multi-stem trees, and layered planting for privacy on riverside plots. You’ll receive clear plant recommendations, seasonal interest planning, and maintenance guidance to keep the design looking intentional.
