If you want a garden that looks polished without constant mowing and weeding, our low maintenance builds are designed for real life in KT3. From clean gravel areas to evergreen planting that holds its shape through winter, we create outdoor spaces that stay presentable. We regularly work near New Malden High Street and around Beverley Park, so we understand the mix of plot sizes and access. The result is a garden that’s easy to live with and simple to keep tidy.
New Malden’s housing mix calls for tailored solutions: 1930s semis often need practical family zones, Edwardian houses suit structured planting and smart paths, while modern apartments benefit from container planting and compact hard landscaping. We design layouts that reduce mess and maintenance without feeling bland. For shaded side returns and narrow gardens, we use durable surfaces and planting that won’t struggle. Everything is planned to suit how you actually use the space.
We start with a site visit, discuss your priorities, then produce a clear design and specification for materials, drainage and planting. Our installations use proper ground preparation, weed membrane where needed, and robust edging to keep gravel and borders neat. We keep you updated through each stage and leave the site clean and usable. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, straightforward communication and a finish that lasts.
Across the low maintenance gardens New Malden area, we often find compact plots, shared access and limited on-street parking, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Ground levels and drainage vary, especially around older homes, so our hard landscaping includes proper falls and permeable options where appropriate. We also consider boundary lines, party walls and neighbour access to avoid disruption. Our approach fits the practical realities of working in the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.

Most projects take 3–10 working days depending on the scope. A straightforward artificial grass installation with minor groundwork can be completed in 2–4 days. Adding composite decking, new paths, gravel areas and planting typically extends the programme to 1–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by access, waste removal, curing times for bases, and weather. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule before we start and keep you updated throughout.
Most garden upgrades—such as artificial grass, gravel, decking at ground level, planting and irrigation—are usually permitted development. However, rules can apply to raised decking, significant level changes, boundary walls/fences, drainage to the public sewer, and properties in conservation areas or with listed status. We check the key constraints as part of the design stage and can advise if you need to contact the council or obtain approvals before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for hard landscaping elements installed to our specification, including bases, edging and structural installation for decking and paving. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products such as composite decking boards, artificial grass and irrigation components, and we’ll supply the relevant details. The warranty covers defects caused by installation, not accidental damage or lack of basic care. We also offer guidance on simple maintenance to protect your finish.
We tailor each design to your lifestyle and the garden’s conditions. Popular options include realistic artificial grass with pet-friendly infill, composite decking in grey or warm timber tones, and gravel areas with crisp metal or stone edging. For planting, we use evergreen structure—such as shrubs, grasses and climbers—plus container planting for patios and balconies. Automated irrigation can be zoned for beds and pots. We’ll help you compare looks, durability and upkeep before you decide.
