Raynes Park homeowners often want a garden that looks tidy without taking up weekends. Whether you’re near Raynes Park station or walking distance from Cannon Hill Common, we design practical outdoor spaces that suit family life and commuting routines. Our low-upkeep builds combine clean hard landscaping with planting that stays structured through the seasons. The result is a garden that looks finished, even when you’re short on time.
Across SW20 you’ll find 1930s semis, Victorian terraces and Edwardian houses, each with different plot shapes and access. We’re used to side passages, shared boundaries and long, narrow gardens where storage and circulation matter. Many clients in Wimbledon, New Malden and Motspur Park want a modern look that still complements period brickwork. We tailor layouts, levels and materials to match the property and how you use the space.
We start with a site visit, clear design options and a detailed written quotation. Our team handles excavation, drainage, edging and finishes so the garden performs as well as it looks. Weed membrane, robust sub-bases and careful detailing keep maintenance low and longevity high. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy workmanship and a 10-year warranty on core installation work.
We plan low maintenance gardens Raynes Park area projects around typical access constraints of terraces and 1930s semis, including narrow side returns and stepped patios. Ground conditions vary, so we build proper sub-bases and manage drainage to avoid soggy lawns and shifting gravel. Parking and deliveries can be tight near Raynes Park station, so we schedule drop-offs and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also consider London Borough of Merton guidance where relevant, especially for drainage and boundary changes.

Costs depend on size, access and the mix of finishes. As a guide, small refresh projects with gravel, weed membrane and container planting often start around £2,500–£6,000. Mid-size rebuilds including artificial grass and new paving or edging are commonly £8,000–£18,000. Larger gardens with composite decking, hard landscaping and automated irrigation can range from £20,000–£45,000+. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on scope. A straightforward artificial grass area with edging and a small gravel zone can be completed in 2–5 days. Full garden transformations with decking, paving, planting and irrigation typically run 10–20 working days. Timescales are affected by access, waste removal, ground preparation, drainage requirements and lead times for materials. We confirm a programme before work starts and keep you updated throughout.
Most garden landscaping is permitted development, so planning permission is usually not required for patios, decking at sensible heights, planting and artificial grass. However, rules can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, building raised structures, changing boundary walls/fences, or working on a listed property. Drainage is also important: permeable surfaces and correct run-off management may be needed. We flag any potential issues early and can advise on when to check with the London Borough of Merton.
We include a 10-year warranty on core installation workmanship for qualifying hard landscaping elements such as sub-bases, paving and decking structures, giving you confidence the build is done properly. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like composite decking, artificial grass and irrigation components, and we pass these details on at handover. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse or lack of basic care, but we provide clear maintenance guidance to keep everything performing well.
We tailor designs to your style and how you use the space. Popular options include artificial grass with crisp metal edging, composite decking in grey or oak tones, and gravel areas with stabilisation and weed membrane. For planting, we use evergreen structure (e.g. clipped shrubs, grasses) and container planting for flexible colour. Automated irrigation can be added for borders and pots. We’ll show samples, explain pros and cons, and recommend the best combination for your budget and SW20 garden layout.
