Clapham’s Georgian townhouses and Victorian terraces often come with long, narrow plots, awkward levels and shaded boundaries. Modern apartments and conversions can mean compact courtyards that need clever zoning and low-maintenance finishes.

The result is a garden that suits your property style and daily routine.
We start with a site visit, measurements and a clear scope, then provide a detailed plan and itemised quote. Our team manages excavation, drainage, retaining structures and level changes safely, keeping disruption to a minimum.

Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, premium finishes and a garden that performs as well as it looks.
Working across the London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth means factoring in parking controls, tight access routes and considerate working hours. Many Clapham gardens sit over compacted ground from past works, so we prioritise proper sub-bases and drainage. Where plots slope or drop away, we design safe, compliant retaining structures and steps. We also plan deliveries and waste removal to suit busy roads around Clapham Junction station and residential streets.

Most landscaping projects in Clapham fall within £100–£250 per square metre, depending on materials, access and the amount of groundwork required. Typical total budgets are around £5,000–£30,000 for full garden upgrades, with higher costs for major level changes, retaining walls, premium stone or bespoke joinery. We’ll survey your garden and provide an itemised quote so you can prioritise what matters most.
Most landscaping builds take 1–4 weeks from start on site, depending on garden size and complexity. Clearance, excavation and drainage can add time, especially where access is limited or waste removal needs careful scheduling. Level changes and retaining structures typically extend the programme, as do curing times for concrete and jointing. We agree a realistic schedule before work begins and keep you updated throughout.
Many garden landscaping works are permitted development, such as patios, paths and planting, provided they don’t create significant changes that affect neighbours or the street scene. However, rules can apply to raised terraces, large retaining walls, boundary treatments, drainage to the highway, or if your property is listed or in a conservation area. We flag likely permission issues early and can help you check requirements with Lambeth or Wandsworth.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for hard landscaping elements such as paving, sub-bases, retaining structures and installed edging, subject to normal use and maintenance. This covers issues caused by installation faults, for example settlement due to inadequate preparation. Materials are also covered by relevant manufacturer guarantees where applicable. We’ll explain what’s included for your project and provide aftercare guidance to protect the finish.
Clapham homeowners often choose porcelain paving for clean, modern patios, or sandstone and granite for a more traditional look suited to period terraces. For structure, we install brick or rendered planters, timber or composite decking, and retaining walls where levels need managing. Soft landscaping can include evergreen screening, pollinator-friendly borders and low-maintenance lawns or turf alternatives. We help you balance style, slip resistance, drainage and long-term upkeep.
