Soft landscaping breathes life into outdoor spaces across Bexley's residential streets. Those standard rectangular gardens behind Victorian terraces and post-war semis become personal havens when planted thoughtfully. From specimen trees that frame your view to perennial borders that attract butterflies, the right planting scheme transforms bare earth into something special.
Plant selection matters in DA5's clay-heavy soil. Hardy perennials like Rudbeckia and Geranium thrive here, while Mediterranean species often struggle without serious soil improvement. Lawn establishment requires proper preparation too - scarifying compacted ground, adding topsoil where needed, then choosing grass varieties that cope with our local conditions. Border edging keeps everything neat without constant maintenance battles.
Twenty years working Bexley gardens teaches you what survives and what doesn't. Local knowledge beats generic planting lists every time, especially when dealing with shaded spots near those mature oaks in Danson Park's surrounding streets.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Budget £2,500-£5,000 for comprehensive planting and turfing on a standard 60ft plot. Smaller courtyard makeovers start around £800, while complete garden transformations with mature specimens can reach £8,000.
Absolutely - from Hurst Road down to Albany Park station, we're working in DA5 gardens most weeks. Regular projects in surrounding areas like Sidcup and Crayford too.
Most Bexley gardens need 5-8 working days for complete soft landscaping. Turfing alone typically takes 2-3 days including ground prep.
All plantings carry our decade-long establishment guarantee. Any failures in the first ten years get replaced free, provided basic care instructions were followed. This covers everything except severe weather damage.
Definitely - integrating planting with hardscaping creates the best results. Raised beds, climbing plants on walls, and strategic tree placement all soften harsh edges while keeping practical spaces intact.
