Schools and family-focused communities around SW20 benefit from outdoor spaces that work hard all year. We design and build playgrounds, outdoor classrooms and wildlife gardens with thoughtful layouts and robust materials. Whether you’re near Raynes Park station or closer to Cannon Hill Common, we tailor each scheme to suit the site, age groups and daily routines. The result is a practical, engaging environment that supports curriculum and playtime.
Raynes Park is known for its commuter links, family homes and well-used community spaces, so we’re used to working with busy schedules and tight access. Many local properties are 1930s semis, Victorian terraces and Edwardian houses, and we bring the same care and finish to school projects as we do to premium residential work. Our team plans deliveries, storage and safeguarding considerations to keep the site organised. If you’re comparing options for school grounds Raynes Park area projects, we’ll guide you through what’s achievable within your footprint and budget.
We start with a site survey, then produce a clear concept that covers zones, circulation, drainage and safety surfacing. You’ll get transparent specifications, phased programmes where needed, and tidy working practices to minimise disruption. We use proven construction methods and quality materials, with clear handover documentation for maintenance. Local homeowners and schools trust us for consistent communication, dependable timelines and workmanship backed by a long warranty.
We regularly work across the London Borough of Merton, where access can be limited and parking controls are common around schools. Clay-heavy ground and compacted sub-bases are typical, so we prioritise drainage, edging strength and stable foundations. We plan logistics for SW20 streets and coordinate deliveries to avoid peak drop-off and pick-up times. Our designs also suit the character of nearby areas such as Wimbledon and New Malden, blending practical safety with a premium finish.

Costs vary by size, surfacing type and the amount of groundworks required. As a guide, small upgrades such as a quiet zone, planters and minor surfacing might start from £5,000–£15,000. Mid-sized playground redesigns with safe surfacing and equipment often fall between £20,000–£60,000. Larger schemes including sports surfaces, drainage and multiple zones can be £70,000–£200,000+.
Typical timescales range from 1–2 weeks for targeted improvements to 4–10 weeks for full playground and multi-zone redevelopments. Sports surfaces and extensive drainage can extend programmes, especially if ground conditions need stabilising. Term-time restrictions, safeguarding requirements and delivery windows can also affect scheduling. We can phase works across holidays or weekends where practical to reduce disruption.
Many external works can be permitted, but schools sometimes need approval depending on fencing heights, lighting, structures, drainage outfalls or changes near boundaries. If the site is affected by tree protections, conservation considerations or neighbouring constraints, additional permissions may apply. We review the proposal against London Borough of Merton requirements and advise on what’s likely needed. Where required, we can support drawings and information for applications.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for installed hard landscaping elements, covering issues such as structural failure due to installation defects. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for play equipment, surfacing systems and specialist sports products, and we’ll pass these on at handover. The warranty doesn’t cover misuse, vandalism or lack of routine maintenance, but we provide clear care guidance. Any snagging is handled promptly and professionally.
Popular options include wetpour or rubber mulch for safe surfacing, resin-bound paths for clean circulation routes, and artificial grass for low-maintenance play zones. For learning, we install timber or composite outdoor classroom structures, raised growing beds, and wildlife habitats such as log piles and pollinator planting. Sports areas can use polymeric surfaces, line marking and robust edging. We help you choose based on age groups, maintenance capacity, drainage needs and budget.
