Fine Landscaping provides a complete landscape gardening service for homeowners across Sanderstead (CR2). Whether you’re refreshing borders near Sanderstead Recreation Ground or planning a full redesign close to All Saints Church, we tailor every detail to your property and lifestyle. Our team handles garden design, planting design, soft landscaping and lawn installation as one coordinated project. The result is a garden that feels considered from the first step outside.
Sanderstead is known for large detached houses, executive homes and well-kept period properties, often with generous plots and mature boundaries. We regularly work on gardens that need better structure, improved drainage and planting that suits part-sun conditions. For clients in nearby Purley, Selsdon and Hamsey Green, we design spaces that balance privacy, entertaining and easy upkeep. If your garden has tired lawns or overgrown shrubs, a renovation can quickly restore order and value.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a clear brief, then present a practical design and planting plan you can visualise. Our landscapers schedule work to minimise disruption, keep access routes clean, and leave the garden tidy each day. You’ll get straightforward specifications, realistic timescales and aftercare advice, plus optional maintenance plans to keep everything thriving. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent communication and a finish that lasts.
As landscape gardener contractors in the Sanderstead area, we’re used to sloping plots, mature tree roots and shaded boundaries near woodland edges such as Sanderstead Plantation. We plan deliveries and waste removal around residential parking and access constraints, and we keep sites orderly for neighbours. Working across the London Borough of Croydon, we also factor in local guidance for trees and boundaries before any major changes. Plant choices are tailored to the microclimate and exposure typical of CR2 gardens.




Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary with garden size, access and specification. In Sanderstead, planting design and border refreshes often start around £800–£2,500. Lawn installation commonly ranges from £1,500–£4,500 depending on preparation and turf quality. A full soft-landscaping renovation with design, new beds, shrubs and lawn can be £6,000–£20,000+. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit.
Small planting and border projects are often completed in 1–3 days. Lawn installation with proper ground preparation typically takes 2–5 days, depending on weather and spoil removal. Larger garden renovations usually run 1–3 weeks, especially where we’re reshaping beds, improving levels and planting trees or screening. Timescales are affected by access, lead times for plants, and whether you choose phased work.
Most garden design, planting, lawns and general soft landscaping are permitted and don’t need planning permission. However, restrictions can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, working near protected trees, or your property is in a conservation area. Croydon Council may also require checks for works affecting boundaries or drainage. We flag likely issues early, advise what’s needed, and can help you gather the right information before work starts.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying workmanship, covering issues arising from installation faults (for example, poor ground preparation leading to settlement). Planting is living material, so it’s covered differently and depends on season, aftercare and site conditions; we’ll explain this clearly in your proposal. We also give aftercare guidance for lawns and planting, and maintenance plans to keep everything performing as intended.
We tailor designs to your home and how you use the space. Popular options include structured evergreen screening, mixed herbaceous borders, pollinator-friendly planting, and specimen trees or multi-stem shrubs for impact. For lawns, we can advise on hard-wearing turf versus ornamental finishes, plus edging styles to keep lines crisp. We’ll recommend a palette that suits light levels, soil, and the level of maintenance you want.
