Behind Brixton's period properties lie gardens crying out for simplification. Those narrow plots squeezed between railway arches and converted warehouses present unique challenges. Years of battling overgrown shrubs and relentless weeding drives even keen gardeners to despair. The solution lies in intelligent plant selection and thoughtful hardscaping that respects both your time and the character of these South London streets.
Strategic gravel pathways eliminate muddy shortcuts whilst drought-tolerant perennials thrive despite sporadic watering. Raised beds constructed from reclaimed London brick reduce bending and contain spreading plants effectively. Automated irrigation systems hidden beneath mulch layers maintain moisture levels during those inevitable work trips. Each element reduces labour whilst maintaining visual appeal throughout changing seasons.
Local knowledge matters when working between Brixton Hill's sloping gardens and the compact courtyards near the station. Understanding which materials weather best against pollution from the South Circular proves invaluable long-term.

Most SW2 and SW9 properties see transformations between £3,500-£8,000, depending on existing conditions and desired features. Smaller courtyard spaces often cost less, whilst larger Victorian plots with multiple levels require more substantial work.
Absolutely - from the conservation areas around Trinity Gardens to newer developments near Brixton Village. Regular projects span Tulse Hill's leafy streets through to Herne Hill's family gardens, covering all SW2 and SW9 postcodes.
Complete transformations typically take 8-15 working days. Smaller urban plots might be finished within a week, whilst larger gardens with structural changes need additional time.
Every installation carries decade-long protection covering materials and workmanship. Plants establish with two-year replacement guarantees, ensuring your investment flourishes despite London's unpredictable weather.
Ferns, hostas and astilbes excel in shaded spots near buildings. For sunnier areas, lavender, ornamental grasses and sedums handle urban conditions brilliantly. Each garden receives bespoke plant selection based on specific light levels and soil conditions.
