Victorian terraces and modern developments throughout Croydon share one challenge: making every square metre count. Small gardens deserve big imagination, and that's where thoughtful design transforms cramped corners into cherished spaces.

Croydon's diverse housing stock presents unique opportunities for creative garden solutions. Those narrow side returns typical of South Croydon properties? Perfect for vertical planting schemes. The compact courtyards dotting Waddon's newer builds respond brilliantly to multi-level designs. Even Selhurst's smallest plots can accommodate surprising features when approached with ingenuity.
Strategic planning maximises limited dimensions through clever zoning and material choices. Light-coloured paving extends visual boundaries whilst built-in seating serves double duty as storage. Mirrors strategically placed catch morning light, while raised beds create depth without sacrificing precious ground space. Contemporary materials like composite decking and porcelain tiles reduce maintenance demands on busy households.
Twenty years navigating Croydon's clay soils and planning regulations means anticipating challenges before they arise. Local knowledge matters when drainage issues threaten new installations or when matching materials to neighbouring properties maintains street harmony.
