Pimlico’s garden squares and riverside outlooks deserve planting that looks established, not rushed. We deliver lawn installation, border planting, hedging and mulching that suit SW1 properties near Tate Britain and Dolphin Square. Whether you want a crisp, formal look or a softer, seasonal scheme, we balance structure with colour. Every project is planned around light levels, privacy needs and how you use the space.
Homes here range from Regency townhouses to mansion blocks and period conversions, often with compact rear gardens, terraces or shared courtyards. We’re used to limited access routes, basement light wells and shaded boundaries that affect plant choice. Our team selects trees, shrubs and hedging that thrive in urban conditions while staying proportionate to smaller plots. We also integrate irrigation discreetly to protect planting through dry spells.
We start with a site visit, soil assessment and a clear planting plan, then schedule deliveries to minimise disruption. Topsoil, mulches and turf are specified for longevity, with careful ground preparation to avoid dips, weeds and patchy establishment. You’ll receive straightforward aftercare guidance and optional maintenance to keep everything performing. Local homeowners choose us for clean working practices, reliable communication and consistent results.
Soft landscaping in City of Westminster often involves tighter access, controlled parking and careful waste removal. Pimlico gardens can be shaded by tall elevations, so we specify resilient plants and improve soil with quality topsoil and mulch. We plan deliveries around local restrictions and keep sites tidy for shared entrances and communal areas. Where needed, we advise on root-friendly tree choices for confined spaces.

Costs vary with access, soil condition and the amount of planting. As a guide, lawn installation typically ranges from £45–£90 per m² depending on preparation and turf type. Border planting often starts around £600–£1,500 for a small scheme, while larger, layered designs can be £2,000–£6,000+. Irrigation systems commonly fall between £900–£3,500, depending on zones and controls.
Most small gardens in the soft landscaping Pimlico area take 1–3 days for soil improvement, turfing and light planting. Medium projects with hedging, trees and irrigation typically take 3–7 days. Timescales depend on access through buildings, drying time for ground preparation, and plant availability. We provide a staged programme so you know what happens each day and when the garden will be usable again.
Most soft landscaping works—turfing, planting beds, shrubs, mulching and irrigation—are usually permitted and don’t require planning permission. However, City of Westminster rules can apply to protected trees, conservation areas, and works near boundaries or communal spaces. If tree planting or removal is involved, we’ll check for Tree Preservation Orders and advise on any notifications. We also plan around local parking and waste regulations.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty, covering installation quality such as ground preparation, edging stability and irrigation pipework workmanship. Planting is living material, so performance depends on season, weather and aftercare; we provide clear care instructions and can offer maintenance visits to support establishment. If an issue relates to our installation, we’ll put it right promptly. Product warranties may also apply to irrigation components.
We can create anything from formal evergreen structure to naturalistic, pollinator-friendly borders. Popular choices include premium turf or hard-wearing seed mixes, clipped box alternatives, pleached screening, multi-stem feature trees, and layered shrub planting with perennials and bulbs. Mulch options include composted bark and soil improvers to suit your beds. We’ll recommend plants and materials based on light, soil, maintenance level and the look of your property.
