From contemporary courtyards to family gardens, we create outdoor spaces that feel right for Carshalton’s village character. Whether you’re close to Carshalton Ponds or over towards Carshalton Beeches, our team handles everything from concept to completion. We combine hard landscaping with thoughtful planting so the garden looks good year-round. If you want a patio for entertaining, a smarter driveway, or improved privacy, we’ll design it properly and build it to last.
Carshalton has a mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, period properties and plenty of 1930s semis, each with different levels, access and boundary quirks. We’re used to long side returns, narrow passages and gardens that need better drainage or more usable zones. Our soft landscaping is planned around light, aspect and maintenance preferences, not just what looks good on day one. The result is a garden that complements the architecture and works for everyday life.
We start with a site visit, measure-up and a clear scope, then provide a detailed quotation and programme. You’ll have one point of contact, regular updates, and a site kept safe and tidy throughout. Every build is finished to a snag-free standard, with quality materials and proven installation methods. Homeowners choose us for reliable timelines, transparent pricing and craftsmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
As landscaping contractors in London Borough of Sutton, we plan around local access, parking and skip placement to keep projects moving. SM5 gardens often have mixed ground conditions, so we assess drainage and sub-bases carefully before laying patios or driveways. Near areas like The Grove, we frequently work with mature trees and established borders, protecting roots and improving soil structure. We also factor in boundary lines and shared access typical of older plots.

Costs depend on size, specification and groundworks. As a guide, small patio or path projects often start from £2,500–£6,000, while larger patios with steps, walls and lighting can be £8,000–£20,000+. Driveways commonly range £6,000–£18,000 depending on area and finish. Full garden design and build with planting, fencing and drainage is typically £12,000–£40,000+. We provide itemised quotes after a survey.
Timescales vary with scope and weather. A straightforward patio or small driveway is usually 3–7 working days. A larger garden with multiple zones (patio, paths, fencing, turf and planting) typically takes 2–5 weeks. Complex builds with retaining walls, drainage upgrades or bespoke water features can run 6–10 weeks. Access, skip placement, curing times for concrete and lead times for materials also affect the programme.
Most garden landscaping is permitted development, but there are important exceptions. New or altered driveways may need compliant drainage; using permeable surfacing or directing water to a soakaway is often required. If you’re adding walls, fencing to the front, significant level changes, or working near protected trees, extra rules can apply. We’ll flag any likely permissions, check constraints, and help you follow London Borough of Sutton guidance before work starts.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on installed hard landscaping, covering issues such as structural failure due to installation (for example, sub-base problems, movement or poor laying). Materials are supplied to manufacturer specifications and carry their own product guarantees where applicable. Soft landscaping is living and seasonal, but we advise on aftercare and can provide maintenance plans. Any snagging is handled promptly and clearly.
We tailor designs to your home and how you use the space. Popular choices include porcelain paving for clean lines, sandstone for a warmer period feel, and block paving or resin-bound finishes for driveways. For boundaries, we install closeboard, slatted or acoustic fencing, plus composite or timber decking. Water features can be contemporary rills or naturalistic ponds. We guide you through samples, drainage needs and maintenance so the final spec suits you.
