Chiswick gardens often deserve planting that matches the area’s character, from the avenues near Chiswick High Road to quieter streets by Chiswick House. Our soft landscaping focuses on the living elements: lawn installation, border planting, trees, shrubs and hedging. We also supply and lay quality topsoil and mulch to improve structure and moisture retention. If you need reliable irrigation, we design practical systems that keep planting healthy without waste.
Many local properties are Georgian houses, Victorian villas and Edwardian family homes, typically with long rear gardens and established boundaries. We’re used to working around mature trees, existing patios and side returns, while upgrading tired borders and patchy lawns. Whether you want a low-maintenance scheme or a fuller cottage-style mix, we plan planting for year-round interest. For clients seeking soft landscaping Chiswick area improvements, we balance looks with longevity and ease of care.
We start with a site visit, soil assessment and a clear proposal covering plants, quantities and preparation. Groundworks are done properly: levels, drainage checks, topsoil depth and mulching, then planting and lawn installation at the right time of year. You’ll get straightforward aftercare guidance and optional maintenance support while everything establishes. Homeowners choose us for consistent communication, clean working practices and results that settle in beautifully.
Working in the London Borough of Hounslow, we factor in access constraints, parking arrangements and waste removal on busy roads near Fuller's Brewery and W4 residential streets. Chiswick soils can vary between lighter, free-draining ground and heavier pockets that need organic improvement, so we adjust topsoil blends and mulching accordingly. We also plan planting sizes and root zones with boundary walls and neighbouring gardens in mind. If you’re comparing soft landscaping in London Borough of Hounslow providers, our approach is practical, tidy and built around local conditions.

Costs vary with garden size, access and the planting specification. As a guide, lawn installation often starts from £45–£90 per m² depending on preparation and turf type. Border planting can range from £600–£3,500+ based on plant density and maturity. Tree planting is commonly £250–£1,500+ per tree including staking and soil improvement, while irrigation systems typically run £1,200–£4,000+ for most family gardens.
Most soft landscaping projects take 2–7 days, with larger gardens or complex schemes running 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on how much soil preparation is needed, whether old turf and roots must be removed, and the number of plants and trees being installed. Weather can affect scheduling, particularly for lawn laying and planting. If irrigation is included, allow an extra 1–2 days for trenching, testing and commissioning.
Soft landscaping such as planting, turfing, mulching and most irrigation work is usually permitted and doesn’t require planning permission. However, there can be restrictions if your property is listed, within a conservation area, or if works affect protected trees (Tree Preservation Orders). We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and can advise on checks with the London Borough of Hounslow. Where needed, we help you gather the right information before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship where applicable, covering installation standards such as levels, preparation and irrigation pipework integrity. Living materials are different: plants and turf depend on season, weather and aftercare, so they’re covered by supplier guarantees and our establishment guidance rather than a long fixed term. We specify suitable plants for the site, install them correctly, and explain watering and feeding to maximise success. Optional maintenance visits can be arranged during the first season.
We can install hard-wearing family turf, shade-tolerant lawn mixes, or premium fine lawns for a smarter finish. Planting options range from evergreen structure (box alternatives, yew, viburnum) to pollinator-friendly perennials and ornamental grasses, plus specimen trees for height and screening. We select topsoil grades to suit your ground and use mulches such as composted bark or well-rotted organic matter. We’ll propose a palette that matches your style, sunlight and maintenance preferences.
