Highly recommended! Alfie and his friend changed our fences and did a fantastic job. They were efficient, quick, hardworking and the price was very reasonable. Really pleased with the result. Thank you again.

Garden Design in Kingston upon Thames
We design your garden to maximise the space. Whether you want maintenance free or a garden made for enjoying, we optimise every aspect.
Garden Design in Kingston upon Thames (KT1) works around the kind of houses that are typical in this part of SW London. Mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, Edwardian and inter-war semis, and a few estates of post-war housing. Riverside gardens are common around Hampton Wick and Canbury. Most of our work in Kingston upon Thames is around canbury gardens and the streets either side of it. A good design starts by looking at what you've already got: the levels, the trees, the existing patio if there is one, the side that catches the morning sun. Then we plan around the way you actually want to use the garden, not the way the previous owner used it.
Kingston covers a lot, from the centre with its tall townhouses to the residential streets out towards Norbiton. The river runs through it, so a chunk of work in Kingston is around riverside gardens with all the drainage considerations that come with them. Designs that work in Kingston upon Thames tend to start from the house style and the plot shape rather than from a Pinterest board. A traditional Victorian or Edwardian terrace looks slightly daft with a hyper-modern garden, and a 1930s semi often suits a more architectural design than the typical cottage planting people instinctively reach for. We work with what fits.

What clients say
Alfie and his team did a great job replacing our back fence. It was mess due to neighbours trees and rubbish pushing up against the wood panels. They cleared everything up and ensured nothing putting pressure against the new fence. They worked fast, removed all rubbish, and well priced. The fence looks fantastic. We will be using his services again, highly recommend.
Alfie and his team were great, we used them to install a new fence, gate, and also box in our hot tub, he was flexible, communicative, and professional, everything that was promised was delivered to an excellent standard.
I had 15 fence panels, 11 concrete posts and 15 concrete bases fitted by Alfie and his team, very lovely men the quality of work was amazing all waste taken away after they had finished. Very professional I am very happy with the work.
I had 3 fence panels and 2 fence posts fitted. Very happy with the work done. Very professional and polite. Price was very competitive and they took away all the old panels etc and left no mess at all. Would definitely recommend.
We used Alfie and team for a few fence replacements and I would recommend them. Good communication and friendly. Attention to detail was good which adds extra trust.
