Putney gardens come in all shapes, from compact plots near Putney High Street to wider spaces closer to Putney Heath. We design outdoor seating that suits how you live—weekday coffees, weekend dining, or a quiet spot after a walk along the River Thames towpath. Expect smart layouts, comfortable proportions, and finishes that look right with your home. Every build is planned for year-round use, not just summer.
Our local experience covers Victorian and Edwardian houses with long, narrow gardens as well as riverside apartments that need clever, space-efficient seating. We’re used to working around existing brick walls, mature planting, and level changes that are common in SW15. For terraces, we often integrate built-in benches to maximise floor area. For newer properties, we create clean-lined patio zones with discreet lighting and shade.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, drainage and access, then produce a clear design and itemised quotation. Installation is handled by our in-house team with tidy working practices and reliable scheduling. We use proven sub-base and fixing methods to prevent movement and puddling. Homeowners choose Fine Landscaping because the finish is precise, communication is consistent, and the result performs for years.
Across Putney Heath, Roehampton and West Putney, we often find mixed ground conditions and gardens that need careful level management. Access can be tight on Victorian streets, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and parking to minimise disruption. We also consider Wandsworth requirements where relevant, especially for structures near boundaries. Materials and detailing are chosen to complement period brickwork and modern riverside finishes alike.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. As a guide, a simple patio seating zone may start around £2,500–£6,000. Built-in benches, lighting and premium paving commonly bring projects to £6,000–£15,000. Larger layouts with pergola seating, fire pit areas and multiple zones can be £15,000–£30,000+. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit in SW15.
Most projects take 3–10 working days once materials are on site. A straightforward patio with a small dining space can be completed in under a week, while pergolas, built-in benches, lighting and fire pit areas often take 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on ground preparation, drainage work, curing time for mortar/concrete, and access for moving materials through the property.
Many garden seating projects—patios, low walls and built-in benches—are usually permitted development. However, pergolas, shade structures and taller features can be affected by height limits, boundary positions, listed buildings or conservation areas. We’ll flag any likely constraints during the survey and can help you check Wandsworth guidance before work starts. If permission is needed, we can build to approved plans and conditions.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on installation, covering issues such as movement caused by inadequate sub-base, poor fixing, or incorrect falls and drainage detailing. Materials are supplied with manufacturer warranties where applicable (for example, lighting components or composite products). The warranty does not cover accidental damage, misuse, or normal weathering, and we’ll explain care requirements at handover.
We tailor designs to how you use the space: dining spaces, sun lounging areas, or a fire pit corner for cooler evenings. Popular finishes include porcelain paving, sandstone, granite setts, and brick edging to suit period homes. Seating can be timber, composite or masonry with cushions, and we can add pergola seating, slatted shade, or sail-style structures. We’ll recommend options based on maintenance, slip resistance and your garden’s light levels.
