Expert garden renovation services in Camberwell, SE5. Trusted by homeowners across London Borough of Southwark.
The period houses in Camberwell deserve gardens on the same level. We design and build gardens across Camberwell Grove, Denmark Hill and the streets nearby, mixing traditional craft with modern planting to get outdoor spaces that genuinely stand up.
The Georgian houses on Camberwell Grove often have walled gardens of a good size. We give these a formal structure, York stone paths, clipped hedging, symmetrical beds, that echoes the discipline of the house. Then we soften it with relaxed planting and modern touches like an outdoor dining area and lighting, so it is somewhere to live rather than something to look at.
The Victorian terrace gardens get a slightly different treatment. We design them as contemporary outdoor rooms, clean lines, good paving, structured planting for privacy and year round interest. We think hard about how the garden meets the kitchen extension, matching the levels, the materials and the sightlines.
Being close to Ruskin Park and the Camberwell College of Arts, a lot of our clients want gardens that are creative as well as beautiful. We are all for that, and we work with them to come up with something personal and a bit different that still suits the house.
Gardens here reflect the mix of architecture, from the big walled gardens behind the Georgian terraces on Camberwell Grove to the tighter spaces of the Victorian houses around Denmark Hill. The local creative community likes distinctive gardens that suit the period character.
Southwark Council's conservation area rules mainly cover external structures and mature trees, and we sort any consents needed as part of the job. A well designed garden lifts both the house and the street.
“They designed a garden for our Georgian house on Camberwell Grove that feels properly period but is completely usable. York stone paths, box hedging, deep borders of roses and perennials, and a gorgeous wrought iron bench as the focal point. It is now the best part of the property.”

Our team handles the lot, from groundwork and drainage through to the planting and the finishing touches.
A formal layout, symmetrical paths, clipped hedging and structured beds, suits Georgian architecture very well. Within that we add relaxed planting, modern outdoor furniture and lighting so the garden actually works for day to day life.
If your property is in a conservation area, or the tree has a preservation order on it, you have to notify Southwark Council before any pruning or felling. We arrange the tree surveys and handle any applications as part of the service.
Yes. We design the garden and the extension junction as one thing, so the paving levels, materials and planting sightlines flow straight from inside to out. Doing them together beats treating the garden as an afterthought every time.
