The West Dulwich area is known for leafy streets, excellent parks and period properties, and gardens here often come with character and quirks. Victorian villas and Edwardian houses can have long, narrow plots, mature trees and shaded corners that affect lawn performance. Period conversions may need clever zoning to keep shared areas tidy and secure. We tailor each scheme to your home’s style and how your pets actually use the space.
We start with a site visit to map pet routes, digging habits, sunny spots and entry points, then propose a layout that’s easy to live with. Our builds prioritise robust foundations, safe materials and neat detailing, with clear communication from start to finish. You’ll get practical advice on non-toxic plants, drainage and cleaning-friendly surfaces. Local clients choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy workmanship and results that last.
Gardens in the London Borough of Lambeth often combine mature trees, mixed soil and shaded areas, especially near Dulwich Wood and Thurlow Park. We specify lawn types, drainage and groundworks to suit these conditions and reduce patchiness. Access can be tight on residential streets, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and parking to minimise disruption. The result: pet friendly gardens West Dulwich area homeowners can use year-round.

Costs vary with size, ground conditions and how many features you want. As a guide, a small refresh with safe planting, lawn repairs and minor fencing upgrades may start from £2,500–£6,000. Mid-size redesigns with new turf, easy-clean paving and secure gates are often £8,000–£18,000. Larger projects with dog runs, drainage, lighting and bespoke fencing can run £20,000+.
Most projects take 1–3 weeks once work starts. A simple lawn replacement and fencing improvements can be completed in 3–7 days, while a full redesign with paving, drainage, dog run construction and planting typically takes 2–4 weeks. Timescales depend on access, weather, curing times for bases and mortar, and whether we’re removing old hardstanding or levelling the garden.
Most garden landscaping is permitted development, including turfing, planting, patios and like-for-like fencing. Permission may be needed for taller boundary fences, structures near boundaries, significant changes to levels, or if your property is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll flag any likely constraints during the survey and can advise what to check with Lambeth Council before work begins, so there are no surprises.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for hard landscaping elements such as paving bases, retaining details, edging and installed structures, subject to normal use and maintenance. Materials are covered by manufacturers’ guarantees where applicable. Living elements like turf and planting are affected by weather and care, but we give clear aftercare guidance and can offer maintenance visits to help everything establish properly.
Popular options include hard-wearing turf or reinforced lawn systems, composite or treated timber fencing, and porcelain or textured stone paving for easy cleaning. We can incorporate dog runs with permeable surfaces, dedicated digging areas, shade spots and safe water features with controlled depths. Planting is selected for non-toxicity and resilience. We’ll recommend options that suit your pets, budget and the style of your home.
