Kingston upon Thames homeowners love their riverside walks and busy weekends near the Bentall Centre, but pets still need a garden that works every day. We create outdoor spaces that cope with zoomies, muddy paws and curious digging without sacrificing style. From secure fencing to durable lawns and easy-clean areas, every detail is planned around real pet behaviour. Ideal for families across KT1 and KT2 who want a garden that stays presentable.
The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames has a mix of Victorian villas, Edwardian houses and modern waterfront apartments, each with different garden challenges. Period homes often have long, narrow plots that suit a dedicated dog run, while newer developments benefit from compact, low-mess layouts. We also work regularly in Surbiton and New Malden, where side access and shared boundaries can influence fencing choices. Our designs balance pet safety with a premium finish that complements the property.
We start with a site visit to map pet routes, worn patches, shade and escape risks, then propose a clear plan and itemised quote. Installation is handled by our in-house team, with tidy working practices and sensible scheduling to keep disruption low. You’ll get guidance on plant safety, surface care and lawn maintenance to keep everything performing. Fine Landscaping is based 30 minutes away, so support and follow-up visits are straightforward.
Gardens in Kingston upon Thames often combine clay-heavy ground with compact access routes, especially around older streets near Kingston Bridge. We specify sub-bases and drainage layers to prevent churned-up lawns and puddling in high-use zones. Parking and delivery timing can matter in busier streets, so we plan logistics to keep materials moving smoothly. We also consider boundary rules and neighbour sightlines common in the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.

Costs vary by size, access and the features you choose. As a guide, small upgrades such as pet-safe planting and a new gate may start around £1,500–£3,500. Mid-size garden makeovers with durable turf, easy-clean surfaces and improved fencing are often £6,000–£15,000. Larger projects with drainage, dog runs, bespoke fencing and water features can range from £15,000–£35,000+.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on the amount of groundwork and the number of features. A simple refresh with new turf and planting may be completed in a few days, while fencing, drainage, patios and a dog run typically extend the programme. Timescales are affected by access, waste removal, curing time for paving, and weather conditions during groundwork.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as patios, planting, and like-for-like fencing. However, rules can apply to fence heights, front boundary treatments, listed buildings, and homes in conservation areas. Water features and lighting may also need careful positioning for safety and neighbours. We’ll flag likely constraints during the survey and can advise on whether you should check with the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our hard landscaping workmanship, covering installation of patios, bases, edging, and built structures such as fencing where specified. Materials are covered by manufacturer guarantees, and we’ll pass those details on at handover. Living elements like turf and planting are influenced by weather, pet use and maintenance, so we give clear aftercare instructions and can provide ongoing maintenance plans if required.
Popular options include hard-wearing turf or reinforced grass systems, porcelain or textured paving for easy cleaning, and composite or treated timber fencing for secure boundaries. We can add a defined dog run, a designated digging zone with sand/soil mix, and shaded areas using pergolas or tree planting. For water features, we prioritise safe depths and robust edging. We’ll help you choose finishes that suit your home and your pet’s habits.
