From New Malden High Street to Manor Park, local gardens see plenty of daily footfall from pets and children. We design outdoor spaces that look premium while handling muddy paws, zoomies and year-round use. Expect practical zoning, robust finishes and planting that’s safer for curious noses. If you’re in KT3, we can tailor a layout to your plot and lifestyle.
New Malden’s mix of 1930s semis, Edwardian houses and modern apartments often means compact lawns, side access constraints and overlooked boundaries. We plan pet-friendly routes that reduce wear on grass and keep gates and fences secure. For smaller courtyards and balconies, we specify easy-clean surfaces and raised planters to protect pets and plants. For larger family gardens, we can add a dedicated dog run and a controlled digging area.
We start with a site visit to understand pet behaviour, escape risks and maintenance preferences. Then we provide a clear design, material samples and a staged build plan that keeps your home usable. Our team works neatly, protects existing features, and finishes with a handover checklist for pet-safe planting and care. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, premium workmanship and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Gardens across the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames often have clay-heavy soil, which can compact and turn boggy in winter. We improve drainage, choose hard-wearing turf or reinforced grass systems, and specify slip-resistant paving for shaded spots. Access can be tight around semis, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption and parking issues. We also consider overlooking and boundary lines to keep pets secure without making the garden feel boxed in.

Costs vary with size, access and how many features you include. As a guide, a small refresh with pet-safe planting and easy-clean surfacing might start around £2,500–£6,000. Mid-sized gardens with new turf, drainage improvements and secure fencing are often £7,000–£18,000. Larger projects adding dog runs, bespoke fencing, lighting and water features can be £20,000+. We provide a detailed, itemised estimate after a site visit.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks on site, depending on groundwork and finishes. A simple lawn replacement and planting scheme can be completed in a few days, while fencing, paving, drainage and a dog run typically extend the programme. Timescales are affected by access, weather, curing times for sub-bases and mortar, and whether you choose bespoke joinery or custom gates. We agree a schedule before work starts and keep you updated daily.
Most garden landscaping is permitted development, including lawns, planting, patios and many fences. However, rules can apply to fence heights near highways, listed buildings, flats with management restrictions, and properties in conservation areas. Water features and drainage changes may also need careful consideration to avoid affecting neighbours. We flag any likely permissions early, check relevant council guidance for the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, and can recommend when to seek formal advice.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering our workmanship on installed hard landscaping and structural elements, such as paving build-ups, edging, retaining details and installed fencing structures (subject to normal use and care). Manufacturer warranties apply to specific products like paving, artificial grass and gate hardware. Living materials such as turf and plants are covered for establishment subject to seasonal constraints and correct aftercare. We also offer practical maintenance guidance tailored to pets.
We tailor the design to your pets and how you use the space. Popular options include reinforced natural turf, premium artificial grass with proper drainage, porcelain or textured sandstone for easy cleaning, and composite decking for splinter-free lounging. For boundaries, we fit close-board fencing, welded-mesh upgrades, and lockable gates. We can add shaded pergolas, shallow water features, and designated digging pits. We’ll bring samples and help you balance durability, safety and style.
