Expert garden renovation services in Fulham, SW6. Trusted by homeowners across London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham.
For a lot of Fulham families the terrace garden is where life happens once the weather turns. We design and build gardens that work for everyone in the house. Soft lawn and safe boundaries for the little ones, a proper spot for a table and chairs, and a quiet corner to sit with a coffee.
A typical Fulham terrace garden runs about 5 to 7 metres wide and anywhere from 10 to 20 metres long, boxed in by London stock brick walls on both sides. We design within those proportions so the garden feels roomy rather than hemmed in, mixing clean hard landscaping with generous planting and a bit of thought about how the space is used.
Our most popular layout puts a paved dining terrace by the back of the house, a lawn down the middle with planted borders either side, and a working area at the far end for the bins, the bikes and the garden bits. From that base we'll add raised planters, outdoor lighting and irrigation so it looks after itself and stays looking good most of the year.
Near Parsons Green and Bishop's Park we do front gardens too. Planted borders behind low railings, a natural stone path, and a few specimen plants chosen to sit well against the Victorian brick and make the front look the part.
Fulham terrace gardens tend to share the same footprint and the same brick boundaries, but each one wants handling a bit differently depending on which way it faces, what overlooks it and how the soil sits. It's a family area, so a garden that actually works for kids is worth a lot.
A good garden gives you extra living space for a big chunk of the year and it lifts the appeal of the whole house. Agents round here will tell you the garden matters more to Fulham buyers than it used to, so having it done properly pays off.
“SOM gave us the garden we'd always been after. A proper lawn for the kids, a lovely terrace to eat on, and the bikes and bins finally tucked out of sight. The planting is gorgeous and the lighting makes it a bit magic in the evenings.”

Most Fulham terrace gardens take 3 to 5 weeks, depending how much hard landscaping is involved and whether there's anything structural like a retaining wall or a garden room. Planting usually goes in right at the end.
Yes. We lean on structural evergreens, gravel mulch and hard wearing hard landscaping so the garden looks good all year without much effort. Automatic irrigation keeps the planting healthy so you're not out there with a hose.
Yes. New paths, planted borders, bin screening and railings. The front garden is the first thing anyone sees, so it's well worth spending on.
