Life around Lordship Lane and Peckham Rye is busy, and your garden needs to keep up with pets as well as people. We create practical layouts that reduce muddy paws, protect borders, and give dogs clear places to run and rest. Expect durable lawns, secure boundaries, and planting that’s chosen with pet safety in mind. The result is a garden that stays tidy and usable through every season in SE22.
East Dulwich homes often come with compact, characterful plots behind Victorian terraces and Edwardian houses, plus period conversions with shared or split gardens. These spaces need clever zoning to avoid worn paths and damaged beds. We plan routes, play areas and quieter corners so pets don’t dominate the whole layout. If access is tight, we specify materials and construction methods that minimise disruption.
We start with a site visit to understand your pet’s behaviour—digging, jumping, chewing, or fence-running—then build a plan around it. You’ll get clear options for surfaces, planting and fencing, with an itemised quote and realistic programme. Our team works tidily, protects existing features, and keeps you updated at each stage. Homeowners choose us for pet friendly gardens east dulwich area because the finish is premium and the details are thought through.
Across the London Borough of Southwark, we often see clay-heavy soils and shaded rear gardens, which can mean compaction and patchy turf. We specify drainage-friendly sub-bases, hard-wearing grass options, and robust edging to keep surfaces stable. Parking and access can be limited near Dulwich Village and Nunhead, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to reduce disruption. If you need pet friendly gardens in London Borough of Southwark, we tailor the build to local constraints and property layouts.

Costs vary by size, access and how many features you include. As a guide, a pet-focused refresh (tough turf, edging, small fence upgrades) often starts around £2,500–£6,000. A full redesign with secure fencing, dog run, easy-clean paving and new planting is commonly £8,000–£25,000+. Larger gardens or premium materials can take budgets beyond this. We provide itemised options to match priorities.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on groundwork and the amount of construction. A simple lawn and surface upgrade can be completed in a few days, while fencing, drainage, paving and planting usually extend the programme. Timescales are affected by access through terraced houses, weather, curing times for concrete, and lead times for bespoke gates or fencing. We confirm a schedule before work begins.
Most garden improvements—turfing, planting, patios, and standard fencing—are usually permitted development. However, rules can apply to fence heights (especially near highways), listed buildings, conservation areas, and major changes to levels or drainage. Water features and lighting may also need careful placement. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and, where needed, help you check requirements with Southwark before starting.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as failed joints, unstable sub-bases, or installation-related defects. Materials (like paving, fencing panels, turf or artificial grass) also carry manufacturer warranties where applicable. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from misuse, extreme weather events, or pet-related chewing and digging beyond the designed zones. We’ll explain care steps to keep everything performing well.
Popular choices include durable turf or premium artificial grass, resin-bound or porcelain paving for easy cleaning, and composite decking for splinter-free lounging. We can add dog runs, designated digging pits with sand/soil blends, shaded pergola areas, and secure fencing with pet-proof gaps. Planting is selected from non-toxic options and positioned to reduce trampling. We guide you through samples and layout options to suit your pet and your style.
