If your new home has been handed over with little more than compacted soil and a token path, we can help. Our team creates practical, attractive outdoor spaces for SE13 homeowners, with everything from patios and pathways to turfing and planting. We regularly work around Hither Green station and near Mountsfield Park, so we’re used to local access and parking realities. The aim is simple: a garden that looks finished from day one.
Hither Green is a popular family area with excellent schools and a mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and 1930s semis alongside newer developments. That variety calls for tailored layouts—clean lines and low-maintenance planting for compact plots, or zoned entertaining areas for wider gardens. We also take care to blend new build landscaping hither green area schemes with existing boundaries and neighbouring properties. The result feels considered rather than “added on”.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear design plan, then schedule works to minimise disruption. Ground preparation is done properly—especially important on new builds where soil is often poor and drainage can be unpredictable. You’ll get transparent specifications, tidy workmanship and consistent communication from start to finish. Local homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for reliable timelines, premium finishes and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Across the London Borough of Lewisham, new build gardens often arrive with compacted subsoil and uneven levels that need correcting before turf or planting. We plan drainage runs, soakaways where suitable, and falls away from the house to reduce standing water. Access can be tight on residential streets around Lee and Grove Park, so we organise deliveries and waste removal to keep things smooth. Every design accounts for boundary lines, overlooking, and how you’ll actually use the space.

Larger plots or show home gardens with multiple zones may take 3–5 weeks. Timescales depend on ground conditions, curing time for bases, weather, access for machinery, and lead times for specific materials.
In many cases, garden landscaping is permitted development, including patios, paths, turfing, planting and like-for-like fencing. However, rules can apply to front gardens, boundary heights, drainage to the public sewer, and works near highways or listed buildings. New build estates may also have developer covenants. We’ll flag likely permissions, check relevant Lewisham guidance, and advise if you need to submit an application before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering workmanship on hard landscaping elements such as patios, pathways, edging and installed structures, subject to normal use and maintenance. It includes issues caused by installation faults, such as movement from inadequate sub-base preparation. Natural materials can weather, and plants are living items, so these are covered separately where applicable. You’ll also receive care guidance to keep everything performing well.
We can tailor the look from contemporary to classic. Popular choices include porcelain paving for clean lines, sandstone for a warmer feel, and permeable gravel or resin-bound paths where suitable. For boundaries, we install closeboard, slatted or trellis-topped fencing, plus gates. Planting can be low-maintenance evergreens, wildlife-friendly borders, or structured screens for privacy. We’ll help you choose options that suit light levels, soil and budget.
