Brixton gardens vary from compact courtyards to long terrace plots, and each needs a tailored approach. Whether you’re near Windrush Square or along Brixton Hill, we plan layouts that improve flow, privacy and year-round use. Our team handles everything from excavation and drainage to the finishing details. Expect a clear schedule, tidy working practices and a result that suits how you live.
Homes across SW2 and SW9 often include Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and newer developments with balconies or shared access. We’re used to tight side returns, stepped levels and mature boundaries that need protecting. Soft landscaping is designed for colour and structure, while hard landscaping is specified for durability and low maintenance. If you’re in Herne Hill or Stockwell, we’ll match materials and detailing to the character of the property.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a practical design proposal, then confirm specifications and costs before work begins. You’ll have a dedicated point of contact and staged updates as the build progresses. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty, and we only use proven materials and installation methods. Homeowners choose us for consistent standards, honest advice and finishes that last.
As landscaping contractors in London Borough of Lambeth, we plan around parking restrictions, access widths and shared pathways common to terrace streets. Brixton plots can have heavy clay, compacted sub-bases and uneven levels, so we prioritise drainage, soil improvement and stable foundations. We also design with neighbours in mind, using screening, careful boundary work and considerate working hours. The result is a garden that performs well in real Brixton conditions.

Costs vary with access, levels, drainage needs and material choices. As a guide in Brixton, smaller upgrades (new turf/planting, minor paving, repairs) often start from £1,500–£5,000. Mid-size patio and planting projects commonly fall around £6,000–£15,000. Full redesigns with hard landscaping, fencing and lighting are frequently £15,000–£40,000+. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit.
Timescales depend on scope and site constraints. A straightforward patio or fencing job may take 3–7 working days. A combined hard and soft landscaping refresh typically runs 2–4 weeks. Full garden design and build with drainage, decking, planting and bespoke features often takes 4–8+ weeks. Access, waste removal, weather, and lead times for stone, timber or custom joinery can all affect the programme.
Most garden landscaping is permitted development, including patios, planting, and like-for-like boundary repairs. Driveways can need extra care: new or enlarged hardstanding at the front must usually be permeable or drain to a suitable soakaway, not the road. Listed buildings, conservation areas, high boundary walls, and works affecting trees may require consent. We flag likely requirements early and can help you navigate Lambeth’s rules before work starts.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our landscaping installations, covering issues caused by installation defects such as unstable paving, poor falls, or fixings failures (subject to fair use and maintenance). Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like paving, composite decking, membranes and fittings. We also explain care requirements for timber, joints and planting to protect your investment. Any snagging is handled promptly and professionally.
Brixton homeowners often choose porcelain paving for clean lines, sandstone for a warmer period look, and permeable block paving for driveways. For fencing, slatted screens and closeboard panels are popular for privacy, while composite or hardwood decking suits raised seating areas. Soft landscaping typically combines evergreen structure with seasonal colour and wildlife-friendly planting. We’ll guide you through samples, drainage needs, and maintenance levels to match the design to your home and budget.
