Patios, Decking & Landscaping in Coulsdon
In Coulsdon and across Croydon we are most often asked for refurbishing Victorian terraces in the north of the borough and retaining walls, steps and terraced patios. The north of the borough, including Thornton Heath, South Norwood, Norbury and Upper Norwood, is Victorian and Edwardian terraces and villas. Central Croydon has office conversions and new towers, and the south around Purley, Sanderstead, Kenley and Coulsdon is inter-war and post-war detached and semi-detached housing on hilly, wooded plots.
Patios & Gardens in Coulsdon
A garden you will actually use.
London gardens are small, overlooked and often badly drained. Good hard landscaping fixes all three. We build patios, decks, walls and garden rooms that make a narrow plot feel like another room of the house.

Planning and the council
Flats created from converted office buildings often have lease and building management conditions that limit alterations. In the southern hills, sloping sites, chalk ground and protected trees influence foundations, retaining walls and drainage.

FAQ
Patios & Gardens in Coulsdon
Not answered here? Call 07595 386864 and ask us directly.
Do you carry out patios, decking & landscaping in Coulsdon?
Yes. Coulsdon is in Croydon, where we work every week alongside Croydon, Purley, South Norwood and Thornton Heath.
Porcelain or natural stone?
Porcelain is consistent, stain-resistant and very low maintenance. Natural stone has more character and weathers over time. We bring samples to the site visit so you can see both against your brickwork.
Will a new patio cause damp?
Not if it is built correctly. We keep the finished level at least 150mm below the damp-proof course, or add a drainage channel against the wall where that is not possible.
Does a garden room need planning permission?
Most garden rooms are permitted development if they are single-storey, under 2.5m high near a boundary, and not used as a separate dwelling. Flats and some conservation areas are exceptions. We check before you commit.
