Crystal Palace gardens deserve thoughtful design that matches the area’s hilltop character and creative spirit. Whether you’re near Crystal Palace Park or closer to Gipsy Hill, we plan and build outdoor spaces that look refined and work hard year-round. Our team delivers full garden design, hard landscaping and soft landscaping under one roof. Expect crisp detailing, tidy sites and finishes that elevate your home.
Many properties across SE19 and SE20 include Victorian villas, Edwardian houses and period conversions with long rear gardens, side returns and level changes. We’re used to working with tricky access, basement lightwells, and sloping plots that need smart retaining and drainage. Planting plans are tailored to sun, shade and wind exposure on higher ground. The result is a garden that feels settled, not newly “installed”.
We start with a site visit, measured survey and clear design proposal, then schedule works in logical stages to minimise disruption. You’ll get straightforward specifications for patios, driveways, fencing, decking and water features, plus a planting plan that suits your maintenance preferences. Our builds are backed by a 10-year warranty, and we keep you updated daily on progress. Homeowners choose us for reliable timelines, careful workmanship and clean handovers.
We regularly work as landscaping contractors Crystal Palace area, where hillside gardens can demand careful setting-out, retaining edges and robust drainage. Parking and access can be tight around Upper Norwood and Anerley, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to keep the street clear. Projects may fall under the London Borough of Bromley, Croydon, Lambeth, Southwark or Lewisham, and we tailor specifications to local requirements. Materials are selected to suit period façades and conservation-sensitive streetscapes.

Costs vary with access, levels and the mix of hard and soft landscaping. As a guide, small upgrades (new paving or fencing) often start from £2,500–£6,000. Mid-size garden refurbishments with patio, planting and lighting commonly fall around £10,000–£25,000. Full redesigns including drainage, walls, driveway or decking can be £25,000–£60,000+. We provide itemised estimates after a site visit.
Timescales depend on size, complexity and weather. A patio replacement or new fencing is often 2–5 days. A medium garden with new paving, turf and planting typically takes 2–4 weeks. Full transformations with retaining works, drainage, driveways, water features and bespoke carpentry can run 6–10+ weeks. Access, spoil removal, curing times for concrete, and lead times for materials can all affect the programme.
Most garden landscaping is permitted development, but there are important exceptions. New or altered driveways may need permeable surfacing or drainage to comply with SuDS rules, and walls, railings or gates can have height limits. If your property is listed, in a conservation area, or close to boundaries, extra checks may apply. We review the relevant borough guidance and flag anything that may need approval before work starts.
We include a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our landscaping installations, covering issues such as laying standards, structural integrity of built elements, and installation-related defects. Materials are also covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable (for example, paving, composite decking or fencing components). Warranty terms depend on correct use and normal wear and tear, plus basic maintenance like keeping drains clear. You’ll receive clear aftercare guidance at handover.
We offer a wide range of finishes to suit Victorian and Edwardian homes, from sandstone and porcelain patios to clay pavers and granite setts. For driveways, popular options include permeable block paving, resin-bound systems and reinforced gravel grids. Fencing can be closeboard, slatted contemporary, or traditional panels with trellis, while decking can be hardwood or low-maintenance composite. We guide you with samples, mood boards and practical advice on durability, slip resistance and upkeep.
