Westminster gardens often need to look immaculate with minimal time spent on upkeep. We create practical, elegant spaces near Victoria and SW1 properties that stay neat through every season. Whether you want a clean gravel courtyard or a relaxed terrace for summer evenings, we build a scheme that’s easy to live with. Our designs respect the setting, from views towards Westminster Abbey to quieter streets off Pimlico.
Homeowners across the City of Westminster typically have compact rear gardens, roof terraces or courtyard spaces linked to Georgian townhouses, mansion flats and luxury apartments. These plots benefit from smart zoning, durable surfaces and planting that won’t outgrow the space. We specify evergreen structure, container planting and hard landscaping that suits period brickwork and modern façades alike. The result is a garden that looks intentional, not “low effort”.
We start with a site visit, clear measurements and a maintenance-led design that prioritises longevity. Installation includes proper ground preparation, weed membrane where required and drainage considerations to keep surfaces stable. You’ll receive a written scope, realistic programme and aftercare guidance so the garden stays looking sharp. Many clients choose us for consistent workmanship, tidy working practices and a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations.
Access in Westminster can be tight, with limited parking and controlled loading near Whitehall and St James’s. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to reduce disruption and stay considerate to neighbours. Many SW1 gardens are courtyard-style with shaded corners, so we choose plants and surfaces that cope with lower light and urban heat. Where council guidance applies, we help you navigate it before work starts.

Costs in Westminster vary with access, levels and the amount of hard landscaping. As a guide, a small courtyard refresh with gravel, weed membrane and container planting may start from £3,000–£7,000. Mid-size upgrades with composite decking, evergreen planting and lighting often fall around £8,000–£20,000. Full redesigns with drainage, automated irrigation and premium finishes can be £20,000–£60,000+.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on size and complexity. A straightforward artificial grass installation or gravel courtyard can be completed in a few days. Composite decking, steps, walls and irrigation typically extend the programme, especially if groundworks or drainage are needed. Access restrictions, parking permits and material lead times in the Westminster area can also affect scheduling, which we confirm before starting.
Many garden upgrades are permitted development, such as replacing surfaces, installing decking at sensible heights, adding planting and fitting irrigation. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas and properties with specific leaseholder or freeholder requirements, which are common locally. We flag likely constraints early, advise on permeable surfacing where relevant, and can help you gather details for City of Westminster checks before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations, covering workmanship for hard landscaping elements such as paving, edging, decking subframes and retaining details when installed to specification. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for products like composite decking boards, artificial grass and irrigation components. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from misuse, extreme events or third-party alterations, and we’ll explain care requirements to keep everything performing well.
Options include premium artificial grass, porcelain or natural stone paving, composite decking in contemporary tones, and gravel areas with crisp metal edging. Planting is typically evergreen structure with seasonal highlights, often in containers for flexibility on terraces and courtyards. Automated irrigation can be zoned for pots and borders, and we can add discreet storage or seating. We guide you through samples and layouts to match your property style and budget.
