Schools around Streatham Hill need outdoor spaces that work hard all year, from breaktimes to PE and enrichment. We design and build playgrounds, sports surfaces and quiet zones with durability and safeguarding in mind. With quick access via Streatham Hill station and nearby Christchurch Road, we can survey, plan and deliver efficiently. Every layout is tailored to supervision lines, age groups and the way your site is used day to day.
Our team knows the school grounds streatham hill area well, including sites near Telford Park and the SW2 postcodes. Many local properties are Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions, and school sites often share similar access constraints and boundary conditions. We plan deliveries, storage and phasing to minimise disruption and keep routes clear. Designs also consider noise, neighbours and how outdoor learning can sit alongside active play.
We start with a site visit, risk-aware concept design and clear, itemised options for budget planning. Then we manage groundworks, drainage, surfacing and installation with tidy working practices and agreed safeguarding procedures. You’ll get practical maintenance guidance and a handover that covers safe use and inspection points. Local clients choose us for reliable scheduling, transparent communication and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Working across the London Borough of Lambeth, we factor in tight access, controlled parking and term-time working constraints. Streatham Hill sites can have mixed ground conditions and legacy drainage issues, so we prioritise proper sub-bases and water management. We also plan deliveries around peak traffic near Streatham Hill station and main routes. Where boundaries are close to neighbours, we specify quieter construction methods and considerate site controls.

Costs vary by size, surfacing type and how much groundworks are needed. As a guide, small upgrades such as a quiet zone or growing area might be £3,000–£10,000. Playground design with safe surfacing and equipment often falls between £15,000–£60,000. Larger schemes combining sports surfaces, outdoor classrooms and multiple zones can be £60,000–£200,000+. We provide itemised options to match funding and phases.
Timescales depend on scope and whether works are phased around term time. A single area (for example, a wildlife garden or small play zone) typically takes 1–3 weeks. Full playground and surfacing packages often take 3–8 weeks, while multi-zone redevelopments can run 8–16 weeks. Factors include drainage works, curing times for surfacing, access restrictions, and lead times for play equipment and specialist materials.
Many school grounds improvements are permitted, but some elements can require approval, especially higher structures, new lighting, fencing changes, or works that may affect trees and boundaries. If your site has specific constraints or is near protected features, additional checks may be needed. We review your proposals against Lambeth requirements, advise on any applications, and can supply drawings and specifications to support submissions and stakeholder sign-off.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on installed landscaping elements, covering issues caused by installation defects under normal use. This includes groundworks, sub-bases and edging where specified, plus general build quality across constructed features. Manufacturer warranties apply separately for play equipment, surfacing systems and furniture, and we’ll explain these at quotation stage. We also provide maintenance guidance to help protect your investment long term.
Options include wetpour or rubber mulch safe surfacing, artificial sports turf, resin-bound paths, and robust timber or recycled-plastic edging. For outdoor classrooms we can add pergolas, shade sails, amphitheatre seating and weatherproof storage. Wildlife gardens often feature native planting, log piles, ponds (where appropriate) and bug hotels, while growing areas can use raised beds and polytunnels. We help you choose based on age range, supervision, durability and maintenance.
