Tolworth gardens see plenty of daily use, from quick morning walks to weekend playtime. Whether you’re near Tolworth Tower or popping to Tolworth Broadway, we create outdoor spaces that suit pets without sacrificing style. Expect practical zones for running, resting and sniffing, plus planting that’s safe for curious noses. Every layout is tailored to your routine and your pet’s habits.
The Tolworth area includes 1930s semis, post-war houses and newer developments, often with long rear gardens and side access. We regularly work across KT5 and KT6, where boundaries, levels and drainage can vary street to street. Our designs fit smaller patios as well as bigger family plots, with smart routes for zoomies and calmer corners for older pets. If you’re close to Surbiton, Chessington or New Malden, we’ll match the garden to the property’s character.
We start with a site visit to understand wear patterns, escape risks and maintenance preferences. Then we propose a clear plan covering durable lawns, secure fencing, non-toxic plants, dog runs, easy clean surfaces, digging areas, shade spots and safe water features. Work is scheduled to minimise disruption, with tidy workmanship and clear handover guidance. Local homeowners choose us for reliable timelines, premium finishes and aftercare that keeps the garden performing.
Tolworth’s suburban plots often have compact access, shared drives and tight parking, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Ground conditions can include heavy clay and shaded sections, so we specify drainage details and shade-tolerant turf where needed. We also design around typical 1930s boundaries and existing outbuildings to keep routes practical. If any elements sit near boundaries or affect drainage, we factor in local guidance for the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.

Costs vary with size, access and the features you choose. As a guide, a small pet-friendly refresh (tough turf repairs, planting changes, minor fencing) is often £1,500–£4,000. A mid-size redesign with new paving, secure fencing and dedicated pet zones typically falls around £6,000–£15,000. Larger gardens with drainage, dog runs and premium surfaces can be £15,000–£35,000+.
Most projects take 3–10 working days, depending on the scope. A simple fencing upgrade and lawn improvement can be completed in under a week, while a full rebuild with paving, drainage, dog runs and planting usually takes 2–4 weeks. Timescales are affected by access in KT5/KT6, ground conditions, curing times for bases and jointing, and any bespoke gates or materials.
Most garden landscaping is permitted development, including planting, turfing, patios and like-for-like fencing. However, rules can apply to fence heights (especially near highways), listed buildings, conservation areas, and changes that alter drainage or levels significantly. For water features, electrics and structures such as shelters, extra checks may be sensible. We flag any potential issues early and can advise what to confirm with the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for installed landscaping elements such as paving bases, edging, retaining details and fencing installation, subject to normal use and maintenance. Materials are covered by their manufacturer warranties where applicable. We also give clear care guidance for lawns and planting, as pet use can affect establishment. If something isn’t performing as it should, we’ll inspect and put it right.
Popular options include reinforced turf or hard-wearing grass mixes, porcelain or textured concrete paving for easy cleaning, and composite or timber fencing with secure gates. We can add dog runs with resilient surfacing, designated digging areas with loose substrate, and shade spots using pergolas or strategic planting. For water features, we favour shallow, pet-safe designs with safe pump housing. We help you choose based on your pet’s size, behaviour and your maintenance preferences.
