On of our latest commercial projects: school grounds in Reigate.

We removed overgrown planting and replaced it with Portuguese Laurels, planted symmetrically along the approach path to suit the formal character of the grounds.

Designed by the school and approved by the Local Authority.

Bare earth to perfect stripes, and it didn't take long to get there. 🌿

This project came to us with the patio already in place but no lawn to speak of, just exposed soil, loose stone and a plot that hadn't been finished off properly. The brief was simple: get grass down and get the garden looking the way it should.

Here's what the job involved:

✔ Full ground preparation, clearing debris, levelling and soil conditioning throughout
✔ Premium quality turf laid to the full lawn area, cut tight to the curved patio edge
✔ Careful finishing around the sandstone steps and raised section to keep clean, crisp lines
✔ Edges cut and dressed to give a clean boundary between lawn and hard landscaping

Fresh from Sheen: a full back garden redesign.

We replaced the tired lawn and patio with new Rj blend paving in four slab sizes, Cor-Ten steel edging to define the beds, and shingle with stepping stones through the middle. Designed by Chris Eve together with the customer.

From a hand-drawn plan to a garden that looks like this at night. This is what a full design-and-build project looks like. 🌿

This homeowner came to us with a garden that had great bones but wasn't living up to its potential. We designed the entire scheme from scratch, and then built every element of it.

Here's what the transformation involved:
✔ Full garden design by Garden Care
✔ New multi-level patio (upper and lower levels with built-in step lighting)
✔ Lawn fully re-turfed with crisp new edges throughout
✔ Central stone stepping path re-laid and extended
✔ Professional garden uplighting installed throughout borders and tree canopies

The night shots are not a filter. That is what this garden actually looks like after dark and it's what proper garden lighting design can do for any outdoor space.

According to the RHS, well-designed outdoor lighting can extend the usable hours of a garden dramatically, and increases the perceived value of a property.

If you want a garden designed and built to last (not just tidied up!) this is what we do. Drop us a message or visit https://gardencare.uk.com/garden-design/

When a fence looks like this, it's doing nothing for your security or privacy. 🪵

This Surrey homeowner had an old palisade fence that had completely had its day: the timber was grey, mossy, and rotting at the base, with gaps wide enough to see straight through. It leaned, it creaked, and it was well past saving.

Here's what we did:
✔ Full removal of the old deteriorated palisade fencing
✔ New close-board fence installed with solid posts throughout
✔ Gravel boards at the base to protect against ground moisture
✔ Capping rail along the top for a clean, finished look
✔ All timber pre-treated for long-term weather resistance

Close-board fencing is one of the most popular choices for homeowners in the UK for good reason, it provides full privacy, handles wind better than panel fencing, and with the right treatment it can last 20 years.

The difference speaks for itself. If your fence is past its best, visit our website to find out how we can help you replace it: https://gardencare.uk.com/decking-and-fencing/

🌿 This property in Kingston upon Thames had its sweeping gravel driveway re-gravelled and the surrounding beds cleared, topped with fresh topsoil and seeded. Restoring the grounds to the smart, well-kept finish they deserve.

The existing gravel was cleared and replaced with fresh golden gravel, with clean edges re-cut between the driveway and the surrounding planted beds. Topsoil was then spread across the cleared bed areas and seeded, ready to establish a neat, healthy ground cover as the season develops.

When your conifers have outgrown the garden, it's time to call in the professionals.

🌲 These two large conifers in Worcester Park were reduced in height and trimmed all round by the Garden Care team. A job that required full road management, safety cordoning and a climber working at height to get the result just right.

Both trees were carefully reduced and shaped to maintain their natural form while bringing them back to a manageable, safe size, and keeping the neighbours happy too. 😄

Green all year round, zero effort required. 🌿 This back garden in Kingston upon Thames went from a tired, weed-ridden lawn to a lush, perfectly level artificial grass installation.

The patchy, moss-covered lawn was completely cleared, the ground excavated and levelled, and a compacted sand sub-base laid before the artificial grass was fitted and trimmed to a neat finish with timber edging throughout.

The result is a low-maintenance, evergreen lawn that looks great in every season. No mowing, no muddy patches, no bare spots. Just green. 💚
