Those compact Tooting gardens deserve better than cracked concrete slabs. Victorian terraces throughout SW17 are crying out for stylish outdoor spaces that actually work with London's unpredictable weather.

South London's clay soil throws curveballs at even experienced landscapers. Between Tooting Bec's leafy streets and the bustling Broadway, homeowners battle waterlogged lawns nine months a year. A professionally installed patio solves drainage headaches while creating that precious extra room your terrace lacks. Natural stone, porcelain tiles, or classic brick - the right surface transforms muddy patches into usable space.
Proper groundwork prevents those dreaded puddles forming after every shower. Excavation depth depends on your soil type - typically 200-250mm across Furzedown's heavy clay. Compacted sub-base, precise levelling, then your chosen surface laid with adequate fall for drainage. Modern jointing compounds flex with temperature changes, preventing cracks that plague older patios throughout SW17.
Twenty years laying patios between Tooting Common and Mitcham means knowing exactly which materials survive London winters. Local recommendations matter - your neighbour three doors down probably has our number saved already.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most SW17 terraced gardens run 6-10 metres, with patios typically costing £2,500-£4,500 depending on materials. Porcelain starts around £85/m², natural sandstone from £95/m², including groundwork.
Absolutely - from Trinity Road down to Mitcham Lane, including all of Furzedown. Most jobs in SW17 take under a week, so limited disruption to neighbours.
Usually within 2-3 weeks of approval. Spring bookings fill fast as everyone realises their garden needs attention, but autumn's actually ideal for groundwork.
Every patio carries decade-long coverage against settlement, drainage issues, and workmanship defects. Materials have manufacturer guarantees too - porcelain typically 25 years against frost damage.
Side returns and narrow passages are standard here. Everything's carried through by hand if needed - wheelbarrows fit through most Victorian terrace passages. Worst case, materials go through the house with protective coverings.
