Between the Wandle Trail and Tooting Broadway, Colliers Wood's terraced homes present unique opportunities. Limited width doesn't mean limited imagination - vertical gardens, clever zoning and multi-level planting transform these compact spaces. Years working with SW19's challenging clay soil and shaded aspects have taught us exactly what thrives here.
Smart design begins with understanding how you'll actually use the space. Perhaps a bistro corner for morning coffee, raised beds for herbs, or a compact play zone that doesn't dominate. Built-in storage conceals garden tools while doubling as seating. Strategic lighting extends usability into evening hours, particularly valuable when your indoor space feels cramped.
Local knowledge matters when every square metre counts. Having transformed dozens of gardens between Merton High Street and Abbey Mills, we understand which materials weather best in this microclimate.

Most complete transformations for SW19's standard 20-30sqm gardens range between £8,000-£15,000, though simple redesigns using existing hard landscaping start around £4,000.
Absolutely - those classic Victorian terrace gardens around Baltic Close and Cavendish Road are our specialty. We've designed solutions for plots as narrow as 4 metres.
A complete small garden makeover typically takes 2-3 weeks from breaking ground. Simpler projects focusing on planting and minor adjustments often finish within a week.
All structural elements - patios, walls, water features - carry a decade-long guarantee. Plants are covered for their first year, ensuring they establish properly in Colliers Wood's specific conditions.
Definitely - permeable paving and rain gardens work brilliantly in compact gardens. They manage SW19's heavy rainfall while creating interesting planted areas that support local wildlife.
