Victorian properties throughout SE13 often come with surprisingly generous rear gardens that quickly become overwhelming. Smart plant choices, automated irrigation and clever hardscaping transform these high-maintenance plots into relaxing retreats. Whether you're renovating a period terrace near Lewisham Park or updating a post-war semi, the right approach cuts garden upkeep dramatically.
Gravel paths replace muddy lawns that struggle in shaded north-facing gardens. Hardy perennials thrive where traditional bedding fails, while composite decking eliminates annual staining tasks. Built-in seating doubles as storage, reducing clutter whilst maximising those compact courtyard spaces common to Deptford's converted properties.
Twenty years solving Lewisham's trickiest garden puzzles means understanding which solutions actually work long-term. Local knowledge matters when clay soil meets London rainfall.

Complete transformations typically take 2-4 weeks, depending on access and complexity. Smaller updates often finish within 10 days.
All hardscaping carries decade-long protection against defects, whilst plant establishment support continues for two full growing seasons - plenty of time for everything to settle.
Ferns, hostas and astilbes excel in those narrow side returns. Japanese maples provide structure without excessive pruning, whilst evergreen grasses add year-round interest to damp corners.
