Those Victorian terraces in Thornton Heath weren't built with modern lifestyles in mind - neither were their gardens. Creating outdoor spaces that practically look after themselves has become our speciality across CR7's diverse neighbourhoods.

Between the busy High Street and peaceful residential roads, Thornton Heath gardens face unique challenges. Clay-heavy soil, unpredictable shade patterns from neighbouring properties, and those awkward narrow plots behind period homes all demand clever solutions. Smart plant choices combined with strategic hard landscaping transforms demanding gardens into serene retreats requiring minimal upkeep.
Gravel pathways interspersed with hardy perennials cut weeding time dramatically. Evergreen shrubs provide year-round structure without autumn leaf clearing. Installing permeable surfaces manages the area's occasional flooding issues whilst eliminating moss growth on traditional paving. Automated irrigation systems handle watering duties during those increasingly common dry spells.
Twenty years working across South London's varied terrain brings invaluable insight. From Selhurst's compact courtyards to Broad Green's larger plots, understanding local conditions matters.

Typical low maintenance transformations in Thornton Heath range from £3,500 for smaller Victorian terrace gardens to £15,000 for comprehensive redesigns of larger properties. Budget depends heavily on existing conditions and material choices.
Absolutely - from properties near Norbury Brook to homes backing onto Grangewood Park, the entire CR7 postcode falls within our regular working area, including nearby South Norwood estates.
Initial installation typically takes 1-3 weeks depending on scope. Plants establish themselves within 3-6 months, with the garden reaching full maturity by the second growing season.
Every low maintenance garden installation includes comprehensive ten-year coverage against construction defects, plus ongoing support for plant establishment during the crucial first year.
Lavender, ornamental grasses, and sedums handle our clay soil brilliantly. Japanese anemones cope with shade from neighbouring buildings, whilst euphorbia provides winter interest. These hardy selections need little attention once established in CR7's climate.
