Parsons Green homeowners often want more than a flat patio—they want a garden that works with level changes and looks exceptional. Our terrace garden builds create distinct zones for dining, planting and relaxing, with safe access between levels. Whether you’re close to Parsons Green tube station or walk the dog at Eel Brook Common, we design gardens that suit SW6 lifestyles. Expect crisp lines, robust construction and planting that matures beautifully.
The local mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian cottages and mansion flats means space is valuable and layouts can be tight. We’re used to long, narrow gardens, raised ground at the rear, and shared boundaries that demand careful detailing. In the terrace gardens Parsons Green area, we regularly incorporate discreet storage, built-in seating and layered planting to soften brickwork and fencing. The result is a garden that feels bigger, calmer and easier to maintain.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear concept design, then specify materials and build phases to keep disruption low. Drainage and foundations are engineered first, so walls, steps and paving stay stable through heavy rain. You’ll have a dedicated project lead, tidy working practices, and transparent updates from start to finish. Fine Landscaping is trusted locally because we deliver premium workmanship and back it with a 10-year warranty.
In the terrace gardens in London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, we often encounter clay-heavy soils, mature tree roots and tight side access through period terraces. We plan spoil removal, deliveries and parking with neighbours in mind, and we’ll advise on any local restrictions that may affect walls, lighting or water features. Levels are set carefully to protect adjoining properties and to manage run-off during intense rainfall. Materials are chosen to complement Fulham streetscapes and the character of SW6 homes.

Costs vary with levels, access, retaining wall height and the finish you choose. As a guide, a small terrace rework with steps, drainage and planting might start around £12,000–£20,000. Medium projects with multiple retaining walls, lighting and irrigation are often £25,000–£45,000. Larger, fully landscaped gardens with water features, bespoke seating and premium stone can reach £50,000–£90,000+. We provide itemised estimates after a site visit.
Most terrace garden projects take 2–6 weeks on site, depending on how many levels are involved and whether we’re building substantial retaining walls. A compact scheme with one wall, steps and planting may be completed in 10–15 working days. More complex builds with drainage runs, lighting circuits, irrigation and water features can take 6–10 weeks. Access, weather, curing times and material lead times all affect the programme.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, especially planting, patios and low walls, but terrace works can trigger rules when wall heights, boundary treatments, significant level changes or drainage outfalls are involved. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, additional constraints may apply. We flag likely permission issues early, check guidance for the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, and can support drawings and specifications if an application is needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for structural landscaping elements such as retaining walls, steps, paved terraces and built-in seating, provided the garden is used and maintained as advised. This covers defects arising from installation, including movement linked to incorrect construction. Materials are covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable (for example, lighting transformers or irrigation components). We also offer a post-completion check to ensure drainage and levels are performing correctly.
We design terraces using materials that suit Parsons Green homes, from London stock brick retaining walls to natural stone, porcelain paving and timber or composite decking.

We guide choices with samples, mood boards and a design that balances budget, maintenance and longevity.
