Coulsdon’s countryside edge means plenty of dog walks around Farthing Downs and Happy Valley, but home gardens still need to cope with muddy paws and high-energy play. We design pet-safe layouts that balance smart planting with practical zones for running, resting and rinsing off. From secure gates to durable turf, every detail is planned to reduce mess and stress. Expect a garden that feels calm for you and exciting for them.
Homes across CR5 range from large detached houses to characterful 1930s properties and newer developments around Old Coulsdon and Chipstead Valley. We tailor pet-friendly solutions to plot size, existing levels and how your household uses the space. Larger gardens can take dedicated dog runs and digging areas, while compact layouts benefit from easy-clean surfaces and clever planting. The result is always cohesive with your home’s style.
We start with a site visit to understand your pet’s habits, escape risks and wear patterns. Then we produce a clear plan covering surfaces, drainage, fencing and plant choices, with tidy scheduling and respectful working. Our builds prioritise longevity—proper sub-bases, robust fixings and safe finishes—so the garden performs year-round. Local homeowners choose us for straightforward communication, premium workmanship and dependable aftercare.
Coulsdon’s semi-rural setting brings chalky downland soils and sloping plots, especially near Coulsdon Common and Hooley, so drainage and stabilised bases matter. We plan access and parking for larger deliveries, and we keep sites tidy on residential roads. Where wind exposure is higher, we add sheltered shade spots and tough planting. For clients seeking pet friendly gardens in London Borough of Croydon, we also factor in boundary lines and neighbour considerations from day one.

Costs vary with size, levels and the mix of surfaces. As a guide, a small refresh with pet-safe planting and an easy-clean zone may start around £2,000–£5,000. Mid-size redesigns with durable lawn, improved drainage and secure fencing are often £6,000–£15,000. Larger projects with dog runs, new paving and water features can be £15,000–£35,000+. We’ll itemise options to suit your budget.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on groundwork and the number of features. A simple fencing upgrade or small hardstanding can be completed in a few days, while full redesigns with new lawn bases, paving and drainage typically take 2–4 weeks. Timescales are affected by access, weather, curing times for sub-bases, and whether utilities or levels need adjusting. We provide a clear programme before starting.
Most garden improvements—new lawns, planting, patios, and like-for-like fencing—are usually permitted development. However, rules can apply to fence heights, boundaries next to highways, listed buildings, conservation areas, and significant changes to levels or drainage. If you want lighting, larger structures, or a substantial water feature, extra checks may be sensible. We review your plans against Croydon guidance and flag anything that may need consent before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for installed hard landscaping elements such as paving build-ups, edging, and structural fixings, subject to normal use and maintenance. Materials are covered by their manufacturer warranties where applicable. Soft landscaping (turf and plants) is more seasonal, so we advise on aftercare and can offer follow-up visits to help establishment. If an issue arises, we respond quickly and put it right.
Popular choices include reinforced natural turf or high-quality artificial grass, porcelain or textured concrete paving for easy cleaning, and bonded gravel for stable paths. For boundaries, we often specify robust closeboard fencing, metal railings, or pet-proof gates with secure latches. Design options can include dog runs, shaded seating, dedicated digging areas and safe, shallow water features. We’ll recommend combinations based on your pet, maintenance preferences and the look of your home in the pet friendly gardens coulsdon area.
