Living near The Oval cricket ground or Kennington Park often means compact gardens that need to work hard. Our designs balance good looks with practical features such as dog runs, easy-clean surfaces and dedicated digging areas. We plan layouts that reduce muddy paws and protect borders without making the garden feel like a kennel. Every scheme is tailored to your pets’ habits and your household routine.
Oval’s Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and mansion flats frequently have long, narrow plots and shared boundaries. We’re used to upgrading tired lawns, replacing wobbly fencing and improving drainage where shaded corners stay damp. For families in Kennington, Vauxhall and Stockwell, we design pet-friendly zones that still leave space for entertaining. Planting is selected for safety and resilience, with clear guidance on what to avoid.
We start with a site visit to assess access, wear patterns and escape risks, then provide a clear design and itemised quote. Installation is scheduled to minimise disruption, with tidy working and careful waste removal. We pressure-test gates, check fence lines and finish surfaces so they’re simple to hose down. Local homeowners choose us for consistent communication, high-end finishes and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
SE11 gardens around Oval tube station often have restricted access and limited on-street parking, so we plan deliveries and removals carefully. Many properties have party walls and tight side returns, which influences fencing lines, gate widths and material handling. We also account for shaded courtyards and compact lawns that can suffer wear, choosing tougher turf and better sub-bases. Where needed, we liaise with Lambeth requirements for boundaries and drainage details.

Costs vary with size, access and how many features you want. In Oval, a small refresh (tough lawn repair, safer planting and minor fencing fixes) often starts around £1,500–£4,000. A mid-sized redesign with new turf, secure fencing and easy-clean paving is commonly £6,000–£15,000. Larger builds including dog runs, drainage improvements and bespoke joinery can be £15,000–£35,000+.
Most projects take 3–10 working days once materials are on site. A simple lawn swap and planting update can be completed in under a week, while fencing, paving and drainage typically extend the programme. Access in Oval’s terraces, weather, curing times for bases, and any bespoke gates or planters can add time. We confirm a schedule before starting and keep you updated daily.
Most garden improvements—turfing, planting, patios and like-for-like fencing—are usually permitted development. Permission may be needed for taller boundary treatments, structures near boundaries, or if your home is listed or in a conservation area. Rules can also affect works that alter drainage or discharge water. We flag any likely issues during the survey and can help you check Lambeth guidance before you commit.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering our workmanship on key installed elements such as paving sub-bases, edging, fencing installation and constructed features like dog runs. It’s designed to protect you against installation-related defects, not normal wear, pet damage or extreme weather events. We also pass on relevant manufacturer guarantees for materials where available. Aftercare advice is included to keep surfaces and lawns performing well.
Popular options include hard-wearing turf or reinforced grass systems, porcelain or textured sandstone for easy cleaning, and secure timber or composite fencing with pet-proof gate hardware. We can add shaded pergola areas, dedicated digging pits with clean fill, and shallow, safe water features. Planting is chosen for non-toxicity and resilience, with robust shrubs and herbs where suitable. We guide you through samples and a layout that matches your pets’ routines.
