Battersea homes often balance stylish outdoor living with energetic pets, especially around Battersea Park and Nine Elms. We create gardens that cope with zoomies, muddy paws and year-round use without looking worn out. From secure fencing to easy-clean surfaces and dedicated dog runs, every element is planned for safety and practicality. The result is a garden you can enjoy as much as your pet does.
Across SW11 and SW8 you’ll find Victorian terraces with compact plots, mansion blocks with shared gardens, and luxury new builds near Battersea Power Station with terraces and podium spaces. Each setting needs a slightly different approach to drainage, wear resistance and privacy. Our team is based in Norbury and typically reaches Battersea in around 25 minutes, so you get responsive site visits and aftercare. We tailor layouts to your property’s footprint, access routes and how your pet actually uses the space.
We start with a site survey and a pet-behaviour chat: where they run, dig, sunbathe and drink. Then we propose a clear design with materials chosen for durability, grip and easy cleaning, plus non-toxic planting options. Installation is scheduled to minimise disruption, with tidy working practices and a handover that includes care guidance. Local homeowners choose us for dependable workmanship, clear communication and a finish that stays premium under daily pet use.
Battersea sites often have limited access through side returns, shared entrances, or lift-served podium gardens in newer developments. We plan deliveries, waste removal and parking with local restrictions in mind, and we keep neighbours informed when access is tight. Soil can vary from compacted urban ground to raised planters, so we build in drainage and robust sub-bases to prevent churned-up lawns. If you’re close to Battersea Park or busy roads, we also factor in noise buffering and privacy screening.

Costs vary with size, access and how “pet-proof” you want the build. As a guide, small upgrades (turf reinforcement, safe planting, minor fencing) often start around £1,500–£4,000. A mid-size redesign with durable lawn, paving and secure boundaries is commonly £6,000–£15,000. Larger projects with dog runs, drainage, lighting and premium materials can be £15,000–£35,000+. We provide an itemised quote after a survey.
Most projects in the pet friendly gardens Battersea area take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on complexity. A simple lawn and planting refresh can be completed in a few days, while new fencing, paving, drainage and a dog run usually require 2–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by access (especially mansion blocks and new builds), curing times for concrete, and weather. We confirm a schedule before work starts and keep you updated daily.
Most garden improvements are permitted development, including new planting, patios, and many fences. However, rules can change if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if a fence faces a highway and exceeds height limits. Water features and lighting are usually straightforward, but we still check drainage and electrical compliance. For pet friendly gardens in London Borough of Wandsworth, we review constraints early and advise if any permissions or landlord/freeholder approvals are needed.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty for peace of mind. This covers installation-related issues such as sub-base performance, paving stability, and structural elements like edging and properly installed fencing. Planting and turf are living materials, so coverage depends on season, aftercare and watering, but we provide clear care instructions and optional maintenance support. If something isn’t right, we respond quickly and put it right.
Popular options include reinforced turf or hard-wearing lawn varieties, porcelain or textured sandstone for easy cleaning, and composite decking with good slip resistance. For boundaries, we often use closeboard fencing with pet-safe gaps and lockable gates. Dog runs can be finished with resin-bound gravel, artificial grass in specific zones, or compacted gravel with edging. We help you choose based on your pet’s size, behaviour, shade needs and the look that suits your Battersea home.
