New-build gardens often arrive as compacted subsoil, uneven levels and poor drainage. Fine Landscaping creates complete outdoor spaces for homeowners across BR5 and BR6, including St Mary Cray and Petts Wood. Whether you’re close to Orpington station or popping to The Walnuts Shopping Centre, we plan logistics and timings around your routine. Expect crisp edges, practical layouts and planting that settles in quickly.
Orpington’s mix of 1930s semis, detached houses and modern estates means no two plots are the same. On newer developments, we frequently tackle shallow topsoil, builder’s rubble and tight side access. For established homes, we blend new patios and pathways with existing features so the garden looks intentional, not bolted on. Families value durable finishes, safe boundaries and low-maintenance planting that still looks premium.
We start with a measured survey, then produce a clear design and itemised specification before any groundworks begin. Our team handles everything: drainage, levels, sub-base preparation, paving, turfing, fencing and planting, with tidy handovers and aftercare guidance. You’ll get transparent scheduling, respectful site management and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty. Local homeowners choose us for reliable communication and a finish that stays sharp through every season.
Across the London Borough of Bromley, new-build plots can have compacted ground and inconsistent topsoil depths. We improve soil structure, set correct falls and add drainage where needed, so patios and lawns perform in wet weather. Access can be tight on modern estates around Green Street Green and Farnborough, so we plan deliveries, parking and waste removal carefully. Materials are chosen to suit local property styles, from 1930s semis to contemporary detached homes.

Costs vary with plot size, access and specification. As a guide, a straightforward turfing and planting refresh might start around £2,000–£5,000. A mid-range package with patio installation, fencing and pathways often falls between £8,000–£18,000. Full garden design with drainage, premium paving and detailed planting can be £20,000–£40,000+. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on ground conditions and how many elements are included. A small garden with turfing, planting and a short path may be completed in 3–5 days. Adding patio installation, fencing and drainage typically extends this to 2–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by curing times, weather, access for materials, and whether levels need significant adjustment.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as patios, turfing, planting and most fencing within height limits. However, rules can change for corner plots, properties with restrictions, listed buildings, or where drainage affects the highway. If you’re adding retaining walls, significant level changes or front-garden hardstanding, additional requirements may apply. We flag likely permissions early and can help you check Bromley Council guidance before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for installed elements such as patios, pathways, drainage runs and fencing (subject to normal use and proper maintenance). This covers issues caused by installation faults, for example movement due to inadequate sub-base preparation. Natural materials and plants are living products, so planting and turf are covered for establishment issues where appropriate, with clear aftercare advice to protect your investment.
We tailor the design to how you live, then match materials to the look of your home. Popular choices include porcelain paving for low maintenance, sandstone for a warmer finish, composite or timber decking, and contemporary slatted fencing. Planting can range from evergreen structure to pollinator-friendly borders, with options for raised beds and lighting-ready layouts. We bring samples, explain pros and cons, and help you choose a cohesive scheme.
