Chislehurst homeowners love outdoor space, but pets change how a garden needs to perform. We create practical layouts that cope with zoomies, muddy paws and curious noses, while still looking refined. Whether you’re near Chislehurst Common or walking distance from Chislehurst Caves, we’ll tailor zones for play, rest and easy maintenance. Expect thoughtful planting, robust surfaces and safer boundaries throughout.
The BR7 area includes large detached houses, Victorian villas and period properties where gardens often have established trees, mature borders and varied levels. We’re used to working around heritage features, existing patios and long side access routes. For clients across Elmstead, Mottingham and Sidcup, we balance pet needs with the style of the home—so the garden complements the architecture rather than fighting it. Our designs keep sightlines tidy and circulation simple for both people and animals.
We start with a site visit to understand behaviour (digging, chasing, chewing) and how you use the space day-to-day. Then we propose a clear plan covering secure fencing, non-toxic plants, durable lawn options, dog runs, digging areas and easy-clean surfaces. Work is scheduled to minimise disruption, with tidy handovers and aftercare guidance for lawns and planting. Fine Landscaping is based 30 minutes away, and our clients trust us for consistent workmanship and a 10-year warranty.
Chislehurst plots often include mature trees and shaded areas, which affects lawn choice, drainage and planting. We plan surfaces and levels to manage runoff and reduce muddy patches after rain. Access can be tight on some period properties, so we organise deliveries, parking and waste removal carefully. If any boundary changes sit near neighbours or shared access, we’ll advise on practical, compliant solutions for pet security.

Costs vary with size, layout and the level of build work needed. As a guide, a small upgrade (pet-safe planting, minor fencing tweaks, easy-clean surfacing patches) can start from £1,500–£4,000. Mid-sized redesigns with new lawn, paving and a dog run are often £6,000–£15,000. Larger BR7 gardens needing drainage, full fencing and multiple zones can be £15,000–£35,000+.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on the amount of groundwork and surfacing. A simple refresh with planting changes and minor fencing can be completed in a few days. Full redesigns with new paving, lawn replacement, drainage improvements and custom dog runs typically take 2–4 weeks. Timescales are affected by access, curing time for bases, weather, and whether bespoke gates or fencing are required.
Most pet friendly garden improvements are permitted development, such as new planting, patios, paths and like-for-like boundary repairs. However, planning rules can apply to new fences or gates over certain heights, changes near highways, listed buildings, or if your property has restrictions. We’ll flag likely issues during the survey and can help you check London Borough of Bromley guidance before work starts, so there are no surprises.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for installed elements such as paving bases, retaining details, and built structures like edging and runs (subject to normal use and maintenance). Materials carry their own manufacturer guarantees where applicable. We also give practical aftercare advice for lawns and planting, because pet traffic changes how surfaces wear. Any snagging issues are handled promptly after completion.
Popular options include hard-wearing turf or reinforced lawn systems, porcelain or textured natural stone for easy cleaning, and composite or pressure-treated timber for secure fencing. For dogs, we can add a dedicated run with compacted sub-base and washable surfacing, plus a controlled digging area. Planting is chosen for non-toxicity and resilience. We’ll recommend options based on sun/shade, drainage, and your pet’s habits—then provide samples to finalise the look.
