Wimbledon Village gardens often need to do more with less—especially close to Wimbledon Village High Street and the edges of Wimbledon Common. We design and build small gardens that feel spacious, practical and premium, using clever zoning and strong sightlines. Expect multi-function areas for dining, lounging and storage without clutter. Every detail is planned to suit SW19 lifestyles and year-round use.
Local homes range from large detached houses with side returns to Georgian properties with compact courtyards, plus luxury apartments needing terraces and balcony planting. We’re used to tight access routes, shared boundaries and the need for discreet, high-quality finishes. Container planting and built-in storage are popular for apartment gardens, while larger plots often benefit from dividing the space into smaller “rooms”. Our low-maintenance planting keeps things looking sharp with minimal upkeep.
We start with a measured survey and clear brief, then produce a layout that balances circulation, privacy and planting. Build is managed by our in-house team with tidy working practices, clear timelines and regular updates. We specify durable materials, install lighting safely, and finish with a practical care plan. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent communication and a result that feels considered from day one.
In the London Borough of Merton, we often encounter clay-heavy soils and shaded pockets near mature trees, particularly around Cannizaro Park and Wimbledon Common. We adapt with soil improvement, drainage-aware detailing and shade-tolerant planting where needed. Access and parking can be restricted on narrower roads, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Our designs suit the area’s premium property styles and neighbouring sightlines, keeping boundaries and privacy in mind.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. For a small garden refresh with new layout, paving and planting, budgets often start around £6,000–£12,000. A more complete design-and-build with lighting, built-in storage, bespoke joinery and premium stone typically falls in the £15,000–£35,000 range. Complex levels, drainage upgrades or high-end materials can increase this. We provide a detailed, itemised proposal after survey.
Most small garden builds take 1–3 weeks on site once the design is agreed and materials are booked in. Simple makeovers with container planting and minor hardscaping can be completed in a week, while projects with new paving, raised beds, lighting and bespoke storage usually take longer. Lead times depend on design approvals, specialist materials and joinery. Weather, access constraints and any drainage work can also affect the programme.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as patios, planting, low walls and typical lighting. However, rules can change if you’re in a conservation area, altering boundary treatments, adding significant structures, or working near protected trees. Drainage and surface water management can also matter when changing hardstanding. We flag likely constraints early, check relevant guidance for the London Borough of Merton, and can liaise with the council if approvals are needed.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on our build work, covering installation quality for hard landscaping elements such as paving, retaining edges, built-in features and structural timberwork when installed to specification. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to products like lighting, membranes and paving materials. We also provide aftercare guidance to help planting establish well. Any snagging issues reported promptly are scheduled in and resolved efficiently.
Popular options include porcelain paving for a crisp, low-maintenance finish, natural stone for character, and composite or hardwood decking for warmer seating zones. For planting, we often use evergreen structure with seasonal highlights, plus container planting for flexibility. Mirrors can widen sightlines, and vertical planting adds greenery without sacrificing space. We’ll guide you through samples, slip ratings, colour palettes and maintenance levels to match your home and how you use the garden.
