New-build gardens in Clapham often start as compact, uneven plots with poor soil and minimal drainage. We transform them into practical outdoor spaces with full garden design, turfing, patios, fencing and planting. Whether you’re near Clapham Common or based around Clapham Old Town, we tailor layouts to how you actually live outdoors. Expect crisp edges, clean levels and a garden that looks complete rather than “new-build bare”.
Clapham’s mix of Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments means no two gardens behave the same. Rear access can be tight in Clapham North and Clapham Park, while newer developments closer to SW11 often need robust drainage and tidy screening. We design for light, privacy and year-round use, choosing materials that suit period brickwork as well as contemporary finishes. If you want new build landscaping Clapham area homeowners recommend, we focus on details that lift the whole property.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear design plan, then schedule the build to minimise disruption. Our team handles groundworks, drainage, hard landscaping and planting in the right order, so nothing is rushed or re-done. You’ll get a written scope, transparent options, and workmanship backed by our 10-year warranty. Fine Landscaping is based just 20 minutes away, so aftercare and snagging are quick and straightforward.
Across the London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth, new-build plots can have compacted subsoil, rubble and inconsistent levels. We improve ground structure, add topsoil where needed, and install drainage to suit heavy downpours. We also plan for access restrictions common around terraces near Clapham Junction station, including tidy material deliveries and considerate working hours. The result is new build landscaping in London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth that looks sharp and performs well.

Costs depend on size, levels and the mix of hard and soft landscaping. As a guide, a small new-build garden refresh with soil prep, turf and simple planting often starts around £2,500–£6,000. Mid-size gardens with patio installation, fencing and pathways commonly fall in the £8,000–£18,000 range. Larger, fully designed schemes with drainage and premium materials can be £20,000+.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site once the design and materials are agreed. A straightforward turfing and planting job can be completed in a few days, while patio installation, fencing, pathways and drainage typically extend the programme. Timescales are affected by access (skip and delivery positioning), curing time for bases and mortar, weather, and whether levels need significant regrading.
Many garden works are permitted development, including patios, turfing, typical fencing (within height limits) and planting. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, boundary treatments on highways, and drainage that connects to public systems. We’ll flag likely constraints during the survey and can work with your architect or managing agent where developments have specific estate guidelines. If permissions are needed, we help you prepare the details.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for hard landscaping elements such as patio installation, pathways, edging and constructed features, subject to normal use and proper maintenance. Materials are covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable. Soft landscaping (turf and planting) is living material, so performance depends on watering and care, but we give clear aftercare guidance and can offer maintenance visits if you’d like.
Popular choices include porcelain or sandstone patios, contemporary composite or timber fencing, permeable pathways, and layered planting for privacy. For lawns, we can install premium turf or low-maintenance alternatives where shade is an issue. Many clients also choose raised planters, built-in seating and discreet lighting for evening use after Clapham’s busy days. We’ll guide you through samples, durability and budget to match your home’s style.
