Sharing your outdoor space with pets should be stress-free, not a constant battle with muddy paws and chewed borders. We create practical, attractive gardens around Norbury station and Norbury Park, with safe planting, robust surfaces and clear zones for play. From secure fencing to easy-clean paths, every detail is chosen to suit pet behaviour. The result is a garden that stays presentable without restricting your pet’s freedom.
Norbury’s mix of Edwardian houses, 1930s semis and Victorian conversions often comes with long, narrow plots and side access constraints. We plan layouts that maximise usable space while keeping sightlines and safety in mind for pets and children. Whether you’re near Norbury High Street or over towards Streatham Vale, we tailor drainage, lawn choice and edging to how your garden is used. Our designs also consider storage for leads, bins and cleaning kit so the space stays organised.
We start with a site visit to assess boundaries, sun/shade, wear patterns and any digging hotspots. You’ll receive a clear plan covering surfaces, planting and pet-proof details, plus a staged schedule to minimise disruption. We use proven installation methods and materials chosen for durability and easy maintenance. Local homeowners trust us for tidy workmanship, straightforward communication and a finish that stands up to daily paw traffic.
Gardens in SW16 often have mixed soil and compacted areas from years of use, so we improve ground preparation before laying turf or surfaces. Access can be tight on some streets, especially around Norbury High Street, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to keep disruption low. We also consider boundary heights, overlooking and typical rear-garden layouts found in Norbury’s period housing. If any works touch shared boundaries or front areas, we’ll advise on practical steps and checks.

Most projects in the pet friendly gardens Norbury area take 3–10 working days, depending on scope. A simple lawn replacement and edging can be done in a few days, while adding fencing, dog runs, drainage and new paving typically takes 1–2 weeks. Timescales are affected by access, ground conditions, curing times for bases and concrete, and weather. We provide a realistic programme before starting and keep you updated daily.
Most garden improvements are permitted development, including replacing lawns, adding paths, creating dog runs, and planting changes. Planning can be relevant if you’re installing tall fencing to the front, altering access points, adding substantial structures, or if your property has restrictions (such as conservation considerations). For pet friendly gardens in London Borough of Croydon, we flag likely issues early, check boundary rules, and can recommend when to confirm details with the council.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying hard landscaping elements such as paving bases, edging, retaining details and installed structures, provided they’re used as intended and maintained sensibly. Planting and turf are living materials, so they’re covered differently and depend on aftercare and weather conditions. We’ll explain what’s included for your design and provide maintenance guidance to help your garden stay resilient for pets.
Popular options include hard-wearing turf or reinforced grass systems, resin-bound or textured porcelain for easy cleaning, and composite or treated timber fencing with pet-safe gaps. We can add dedicated dog runs, shaded lounging spots, and a controlled digging area with a defined border. For water features, we recommend shallow, safe designs with sturdy edging. We’ll help you choose finishes based on your pet’s habits, your maintenance preference, and the style of your home.
