If your garden near Thornton Heath station needs a rethink, we can transform it with practical, design-led landscaping. Fine Landscaping delivers garden design, planting design, soft landscaping and lawn installation tailored to how you use the space. We regularly work across CR7, including Broad Green and Selhurst, where gardens range from compact courtyards to longer family plots. Expect tidy workmanship, clear communication and a finish that matures beautifully.
Thornton Heath’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis and 1930s houses often come with narrow side access, varied levels and established boundaries. We plan planting and layouts that suit these proportions, keeping light, privacy and maintenance in balance. Whether you want border planting to soften fencing or tree & shrub planting to screen neighbouring views, we design for long-term structure. For homes near Grangewood Park, we also factor in wind exposure and shade patterns.
Our process starts with a site visit, measured survey and a clear proposal covering materials, planting and timescales. We schedule deliveries, protect existing features, and keep the site clean so you can carry on at home. Every project is finished with a practical handover and optional maintenance plans to keep lawns, borders and shrubs in top condition. Local homeowners choose us for consistent quality, honest advice and a 10-year warranty on eligible workmanship.
Working across the London Borough of Croydon, we’re used to Thornton Heath’s mixed soil conditions and the drainage quirks found in older gardens. Many streets have limited parking and narrow access, so we plan labour and material drops to minimise disruption. We also design around typical terrace plot shapes, existing outbuildings and mature boundary planting. If you’re near Thornton Heath Pond or Beulah Spa, we’ll assess shade, damp spots and root zones before planting.

Costs vary by access, ground preparation and the amount of planting or lawn work required. As a guide in Thornton Heath, planting and border refreshes often start from £600–£2,000, while lawn installation is commonly £1,200–£3,500 depending on size and base works. Full garden renovation projects typically fall between £5,000–£25,000+. We provide itemised estimates after a site visit in CR7.
Small soft landscaping jobs such as border planting or shrub replacement can take 1–3 days. Lawn installation is often 2–5 days including preparation, while a garden renovation may take 2–6 weeks depending on demolition, levels, drainage and planting complexity. Timescales are influenced by access through terraced houses, waste removal, and lead times for specialist plants or materials. We confirm a schedule before starting.
Most garden design, planting, lawns and typical soft landscaping are permitted development and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can apply to significant level changes, structures near boundaries, work affecting drainage, or if your property is in a conservation area. Tree works may also be restricted by Tree Preservation Orders. We’ll flag any likely permissions during the survey and can help you check Croydon Council requirements before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on eligible workmanship, covering installation quality for agreed elements completed to specification. This includes issues arising from poor construction or fixing methods, not damage from misuse, extreme weather, or third-party alterations. Plants are living products, so their success depends on aftercare, watering and site conditions; we advise on this at handover. Maintenance plans are available to support establishment and long-term performance.
We tailor options to your home and how you use the garden, from structured evergreen schemes to wildlife-friendly, seasonal planting. Popular choices include crisp lawn areas, layered border planting, specimen trees, and low-maintenance shrub beds with mulch for weed control. We’ll recommend plants for sun or shade, and select sizes to give impact without overcrowding. Your plan can be phased to suit budget and future improvements.
