Chelsea gardens demand precision, whether you’re near King’s Road or a quieter street by the Chelsea Physic Garden. We create elegant outdoor spaces that complement the area’s architecture and lifestyle, from compact courtyards to generous rear gardens. Our team delivers full garden design, hard landscaping and soft landscaping with premium materials and careful detailing. You’ll get a garden that looks exceptional year-round and performs brilliantly in London conditions.
We regularly work across SW3 and SW10, including projects for Georgian townhouses, Victorian mansions and luxury apartments with terraces. These properties often come with level changes, basement lightwells, and strict expectations on finish quality. We plan layouts that maximise usable space, improve drainage, and keep planting schemes looking structured rather than overgrown. Where access is tight, we organise deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption to neighbours.
Our process starts with a site visit and detailed brief, followed by design visuals and a transparent specification. Once approved, we schedule trades in the right order—groundworks, paving, structures, then planting—so nothing is rushed or compromised. We protect existing surfaces, keep the site tidy, and provide regular updates throughout the build. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, dependable communication, and a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations.
Working in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea often means controlled parking, delivery restrictions and close neighbours. We plan loading, skips and material drops to reduce disruption and keep your street clear. Many Chelsea gardens sit over made ground or have older drainage runs, so we assess levels and water flow before building patios or driveways. Our detailing suits period façades while meeting modern performance standards.

Costs vary with access, groundworks and material choice. In Chelsea, smaller upgrades (planting refresh, minor paving repairs, new fencing) often start around £2,000–£8,000. Mid-sized patio or courtyard refurbishments commonly fall between £10,000–£30,000. Full garden design and build with drainage, lighting, premium paving, decking and planting can range from £35,000–£120,000+ for larger or complex sites.
Timescales depend on size, access and the scope of works. A fencing or small patio job may take 2–5 days. A new patio with steps, drainage and planting typically takes 2–4 weeks. Full garden design and build projects often run 4–10 weeks, especially where there are level changes or bespoke features. Weather, lead times for stone and joinery, and parking logistics can affect the programme.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, including patios, paths, fencing (within height limits) and most planting. Driveways can require extra care, particularly around permeable surfacing and drainage to comply with SuDS rules. If your property is listed or within a conservation area, additional restrictions may apply. We review the site, advise on likely requirements, and can help you gather the information needed before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations, covering workmanship on key elements such as paving construction, sub-bases, edging, and structural hard landscaping built to our specification. Materials are covered by the relevant manufacturer warranties where applicable. The warranty does not cover accidental damage, misuse, or issues caused by third-party alterations. We also offer aftercare guidance to keep planting and surfaces performing well.
Chelsea homeowners often choose porcelain paving for a crisp, contemporary look, or natural stone for period-sensitive elegance. For privacy and warmth, we install timber or composite decking, bespoke fencing and trellis, and structured evergreen planting. Water features range from subtle rills to statement bowls with recirculating systems. We guide you through samples, slip ratings, maintenance needs and colour palettes, then tailor a design to your architecture and lifestyle.
