A new-build garden often starts as compacted subsoil, uneven levels and minimal drainage. We create complete outdoor spaces for Blackheath homes, from Full Garden Design through to Turfing, Patio Installation and Planting. Whether you’re near Blackheath Common or closer to Blackheath Village, we plan the layout to suit how you actually use the space. The aim is simple: a garden that looks established, drains well and feels finished.
Blackheath’s affluent village atmosphere and Georgian architecture bring high expectations for detailing and materials. We regularly work around Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and period conversions, where access can be tight and boundaries need careful handling. For newer developments in nearby Kidbrooke and Greenwich, we’re used to working to developer specifications and handover deadlines. This is new build landscaping blackheath area homeowners choose when they want clean lines and lasting quality.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear design proposal, then schedule works to minimise disruption. Groundworks, drainage and edging are done before finishes, so patios, pathways and turf sit properly and last. You’ll have a single point of contact throughout, tidy working practices, and transparent updates. Many clients choose us for new build landscaping in Royal Borough of Greenwich/London Borough of Lewisham because we combine design-led thinking with robust construction standards.
Blackheath gardens can have heavy, compacted ground after construction, so we prioritise soil improvement and drainage runs before turfing. Parking and access near The Paragon and All Saints Church can be restricted, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also factor in boundary treatments that suit period streetscapes, while still meeting modern privacy needs. Where works touch front gardens or visibility splays, we consider the relevant Royal Borough of Greenwich/London Borough of Lewisham guidance.

Costs vary with access, levels and specification. As a guide, a straightforward new-build finish (soil prep, turf, simple planting) often starts from £3,000–£7,000 for smaller gardens. Adding a patio, pathways, fencing and drainage commonly brings projects into the £10,000–£25,000 range. Larger plots, premium porcelain/stone, retaining edges or show home detailing can be £25,000+. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit.
Most new build gardens take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on size and complexity. A basic turf-and-planting package can be completed in a few days once ground conditions are right. Patios, pathways, fencing and drainage typically add time, especially if levels need correcting or materials require lead times. Weather, access constraints and drying times for concrete bases can also affect the programme. We’ll agree a realistic schedule before starting.
Many garden works are permitted development, including patios, fencing within height limits and most planting schemes. However, rules can change if you’re in a conservation area, your property is listed, or you’re altering front gardens, boundaries or drainage to the public highway. Some new-build estates also have developer covenants to follow. We’ll flag any likely permissions, check relevant council guidance, and advise if a planning application or party wall agreement may be needed.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for hard landscaping elements such as patios, pathways, edging, drainage installations and fencing structures, provided they’re used normally and maintained appropriately. This covers issues linked to installation, including movement caused by inadequate sub-bases or poor falls. Living materials (turf and plants) are covered separately because establishment depends on watering and seasonal conditions. We’ll give clear care guidance at handover.
Clients often choose porcelain paving for crisp, low-maintenance patios, or sandstone/limestone to suit period properties near SE3. For boundaries, closeboard or slatted fencing is popular, sometimes with trellis for height and planting. Planting schemes frequently mix evergreen structure with soft perennials and multi-stem trees for quick impact. We’ll design around sun, privacy and drainage, then help you choose finishes that match your home and budget with samples and layout drawings.
