If your garden in CR2 needs a smarter layout, better drainage or a complete refresh, our team can take it from concept to completion. We regularly work near Sanderstead Recreation Ground and around All Saints Church, creating outdoor spaces that suit busy family life as well as entertaining. Expect crisp levels, clean lines and planting that thrives. Every project is planned to minimise disruption and maximise long-term value.
Sanderstead’s large detached houses, executive homes and period properties often have generous plots, sloping lawns and mature boundaries that deserve careful handling. We design around existing trees, privacy needs and the way you use the space day to day. Many clients want practical upgrades such as wider patios, safer steps, and low-maintenance borders without losing a natural feel. We also support homeowners in nearby Purley, Selsdon and Hamsey Green with the same high standards.
Our process starts with a site visit, measured survey and clear design proposal, then a detailed schedule and fixed scope. You’ll have one point of contact throughout, with tidy working practices and respectful neighbours in mind. We source quality materials, set out levels accurately, and keep you updated at each stage. Local homeowners choose us for reliable timelines, transparent communication and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Gardens across the London Borough of Croydon can vary from clay-heavy soil to chalkier pockets, so we adjust foundations, drainage and planting choices accordingly. In the Sanderstead area we often plan for sloping sites, mature roots and access restrictions on quieter residential roads. We organise deliveries, waste removal and considerate parking to keep the job running smoothly. Where relevant, we also factor in boundary lines and neighbouring sightlines common with larger plots.

Costs depend on scope, access and specification. As a guide, a new patio can range from £3,000–£10,000+, fencing from £120–£220 per metre, and a driveway from £6,000–£20,000+ depending on base build-up and surfacing. Full garden transformations with design, hard landscaping and planting often fall between £15,000–£60,000+. We provide a detailed, itemised proposal after a site survey.
Timescales vary by complexity and weather. A straightforward patio or small decking area typically takes 3–7 working days, while a driveway may take 1–3 weeks depending on excavation and curing times. A full redesign with levels, walls, lighting, planting and multiple trades often runs 4–10 weeks. Access, skips, tree protection, drainage requirements and bespoke features (like pergolas or water features) can extend the programme.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Driveways must usually use permeable surfacing or drain to a suitable area to avoid planning issues, particularly with front gardens. Walls, raised terraces, significant level changes, and work near boundaries can also have rules. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, restrictions may be tighter. We check requirements and advise before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our hard landscaping installations, covering issues such as sub-base failure, laying defects and structural movement caused by poor construction. Manufacturer guarantees apply to many products we supply, such as paving or composite decking. Planting is living material, so it’s covered differently; we’ll advise on aftercare and can offer maintenance to help it establish. All terms are confirmed in writing.
We design and build with a wide range of finishes to suit Sanderstead homes, from porcelain and sandstone patios to setts, resin-bound or block-paved driveways. For boundaries we install closeboard, slatted and acoustic fencing, plus gates to match. Decking options include hardwood and composite, and we can add water features, lighting and planting schemes for year-round structure. We bring samples, discuss maintenance, and tailor choices to your budget and style.
