Carshalton gardens often need smart layout, drainage and planting that can handle everyday use. We design and build outdoor spaces that feel at home near Carshalton Ponds and The Grove, balancing character with modern practicality. Whether you want a new patio, fresh turf, or a complete rework, we deliver clean lines and durable finishes. Our team covers SM5 and nearby streets with a clear plan from day one.
Many homes locally are Victorian and Edwardian houses, 1930s semis and other period properties, each with different levels, boundaries and access. We match materials and proportions to the architecture, keeping pathways, steps and edging in scale. For compact plots in Carshalton Beeches or larger gardens closer to Oaks Park, we tailor the design to how you live outdoors. The result is a garden that looks established, not “dropped in”.
Our process starts with a site visit, measured layout and a written scope, then careful groundworks before any finishes go down. We handle garden clearance, waste removal, and protect existing features while we work. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy sites and consistent communication throughout the build. With a 15-minute run from our Norbury base, we can respond quickly and keep projects moving.
We’re used to the mix of soil types and sloping plots found across the London Borough of Sutton, including Carshalton and Hackbridge. Access can be tight on some residential roads, so we plan deliveries, parking and waste collection to minimise disruption. We also factor in mature trees, boundary walls and shared drives that are common around period homes. If any works affect drainage or boundaries, we’ll advise early and keep everything compliant.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most projects in the Carshalton area fall between £100–£250 per square metre, depending on groundworks, access and material choices. Typical overall budgets are around £5,000–£30,000 for anything from a new patio and planting to a full redesign with level changes and retaining structures. After a site visit we provide a detailed, itemised scope so you can see where the money goes and adjust finishes to suit.
Landscaping jobs usually take 1–4 weeks once work starts. Smaller upgrades such as clearance, a patio and new turf can be completed in around a week, while full transformations with steps, walls, drainage and multiple areas take longer. Timescales depend on weather, curing times for concrete, access for machinery, and any unexpected issues found during excavation. We’ll give a realistic programme and keep you updated daily.
Most garden landscaping is permitted development, especially like-for-like patios, paths, planting and general garden works. However, rules can apply to raised platforms, significant level changes near boundaries, retaining walls, and drainage—particularly if surface water would run towards the highway or neighbouring property. In the London Borough of Sutton we check the relevant guidance and flag anything that may need approval. If required, we can help with drawings and specifications.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for hard landscaping elements such as patios, paths, edging, steps and retaining structures, provided they’re used and maintained normally. This covers issues like movement caused by incorrect base preparation or installation faults. Materials are supplied to manufacturer standards and may carry their own guarantees. We also give aftercare guidance for planting and lawns so the garden settles in well.
We offer both soft and hard landscaping options, from porcelain paving, sandstone and block paving to gravel, sleeper edging and bespoke brickwork. For planting, we can create low-maintenance schemes, wildlife-friendly borders, or structured evergreen designs. We’ll help you choose finishes that suit your home’s style, budget and maintenance level, and we’ll show samples where possible. Layouts can include seating areas, lawns, lighting and practical storage zones.
