Garden design and landscaping in Chertsey

Our landscaping work in Chertsey includes riverside homes along the Thames, family gardens in Addlestone and Ottershaw, and properties around St Ann's Hill. Every project is designed individually around the property, the way you use your garden and the surrounding landscape.

From the first consultation and 3D garden design to hard landscaping, planting, lighting and long-term maintenance, one team handles your Chertsey landscaping project from start to finish.

Landscaping for Chertsey gardens

Chertsey's riverside setting means gardens may sit on alluvial soil with a higher water table. We plan drainage, permeable paving and planting carefully so gardens cope with wet winters.

How It Works

A clear process from first visit to finished garden

  1. 01

    Consultation

    We visit the property to understand the space, the architecture, how you live and what you hope the garden will become.

  2. 02

    Design

    A considered concept is developed for the property, resolving levels, circulation, planting and materials.

  3. 03

    Visualisation

    Detailed drawings and 3D visualisation communicate the proposed garden before a single stone is laid.

  4. 04

    Construction

    Our teams deliver the landscape with close attention to materials, setting out, planting and craftsmanship.

  5. 05

    Care

    Ongoing garden and estate maintenance preserves the design as the planting establishes and matures.

Local Advice

Frequently asked questions about landscaping in Chertsey

Practical answers to common questions we discuss during local garden consultations.

Do I need planning permission for landscaping in Chertsey?
Most routine garden landscaping does not need planning permission. Permission or separate consent may be needed for substantial raised terraces, tall boundary treatments, outbuildings, work affecting protected trees, or a listed property. Conservation areas and site-specific restrictions can also matter, so we identify likely constraints during the survey and recommend confirming them with Runnymede Borough Council before work begins.
What soil and drainage conditions are common in Chertsey?
Chertsey's riverside setting means gardens may sit on alluvial soil with a higher water table. We plan drainage, permeable paving and planting carefully so gardens cope with wet winters.
How long does a landscaping project in Chertsey usually take?
The programme depends on the garden's size, access, levels and the amount of construction and planting involved. A focused patio or planting project may take several weeks, while a complete design-and-build transformation can take longer. After surveying the Chertsey property and agreeing the design, we provide a project-specific schedule and explain any weather or ground-condition allowances.
What do you check before starting a garden project in Chertsey?
We assess access for materials and machinery, existing levels, drainage, underground services, boundaries, mature trees, sunlight and how the garden will be used. This site-specific survey is especially important because conditions can change between neighbouring Chertsey properties; recommendations are based on the individual garden rather than assumptions about the wider area.
