Professional Landscaping Solutions for London and Surrey
As London and Surrey's trusted landscaping specialists, we bring over twelve years of dedicated experience in designing, creating, and transforming outdoor spaces across residential and commercial properties throughout the region.
We understand that successful landscaping requires balancing aesthetic vision with practical considerations including drainage, maintenance requirements, budget constraints, and how spaces will be used by families, guests, or employees. Our comprehensive landscaping service addresses everything from initial design consultation through to final installation and planting, ensuring every element is carefully planned and expertly executed to create outdoor environments that enhance your property and lifestyle.
We pride ourselves on delivering landscaping solutions that combine creative flair with technical excellence, creating outdoor spaces that provide lasting beauty, functionality, and value for years to come.
Our landscaping specialists combine design creativity with construction expertise to deliver comprehensive outdoor transformations across diverse property types. We assess each site's unique characteristics including soil conditions, drainage patterns, sun exposure, existing features, and access constraints to develop practical solutions that work with rather than against natural conditions.
We execute hard landscaping using proper foundation preparation, appropriate materials selection, and proven construction techniques that ensure longevity and performance. Our team installs patios with correct falls for drainage, builds retaining walls with proper drainage and stability, and creates paths that remain level and attractive through seasonal ground movement.
For soft landscaping elements, we improve soil quality through appropriate amendments, select plants suited to specific growing conditions, and implement planting schemes that deliver aesthetic impact whilst remaining practical to maintain. We understand plant requirements including mature size, growth rates, seasonal interest, and maintenance needs.
Throughout projects, we coordinate multiple trades and specialisms including groundworkers, electricians for lighting, plumbers for irrigation, and specialist suppliers for materials and plants. We manage schedules, quality control, and communication to ensure seamless project delivery without clients needing to coordinate various contractors.

Why Invest in Professional Landscaping Services?
Professional landscaping transforms outdoor spaces into valuable extensions of your property through expert design knowledge, construction skills, and horticultural expertise that amateur approaches cannot replicate. When you engage specialists like Above All Tree Care, you benefit from experience that anticipates problems, maximises opportunities, and delivers results that enhance both property value and lifestyle quality.
DIY landscaping frequently results in costly mistakes including inadequate drainage, poor material choices, structural failures, and planting schemes that underperform or require excessive maintenance. Professional services eliminate these risks through proper planning, appropriate techniques, and proven methodologies that ensure longevity and functionality alongside aesthetic appeal.
Beyond technical considerations, professional landscaping saves substantial time and physical effort whilst providing access to trade suppliers, specialist equipment, and comprehensive insurance coverage. Our team manages complex logistics from material sourcing and waste removal through to coordinating multiple trades, allowing you to enjoy the transformation without the burden.
The cumulative value of professional landscaping far exceeds the initial investment, as well-designed and properly constructed outdoor spaces significantly enhance property values, reduce ongoing maintenance costs, and provide enjoyment for decades. Our comprehensive approach ensures your landscape delivers aesthetic beauty, practical functionality, and long-term performance that justifies the investment.

Landscaping FAQs
How long does a typical landscaping project take?
Project duration varies considerably depending on scope and complexity, with simple garden makeovers potentially completing within one to two weeks whilst extensive transformations involving multiple elements may require four to eight weeks. Weather conditions, material availability, and site access can affect timelines, but we provide realistic schedules during quotation and keep clients informed of progress throughout.
Do you provide design services or just installation?
We offer complete design-and-build services covering concept development through to final installation, though we're equally happy to work from designs prepared by garden designers or landscape architects. Our integrated approach ensures designs remain practical and achievable whilst our installation expertise informs design decisions for optimal results.
What is included in your landscaping quotations?
Our detailed quotations itemise all aspects including site clearance, groundworks, materials, labour, waste removal, and finishing touches, ensuring complete transparency. We specify materials by type and quality grade, outline work stages, and highlight any items excluded or priced as optional extras to avoid misunderstandings.
Can you work with existing garden features?
Yes, we regularly incorporate existing trees, paving, structures, and planting into new designs where they contribute positively to the overall scheme. We assess whether retention makes practical and aesthetic sense, advising honestly when replacement would deliver better long-term results.
What happens if you encounter unexpected problems during work?
Ground conditions, hidden services, or unforeseen complications occasionally emerge during projects, and we communicate immediately when issues arise that affect costs or timelines. We discuss options and implications before proceeding, ensuring you make informed decisions about how to address unexpected challenges.
Do you handle planning permission and building regulations?
Whilst we don't directly submit planning applications, we advise whether proposed work requires permission and can recommend planning consultants where necessary. Most landscaping projects fall within permitted development rights, though retaining walls exceeding certain heights, work in conservation areas, or alterations affecting boundaries may require consent.
What materials do you recommend for patios and paths?
Material selection depends on budget, aesthetic preferences, property style, and intended use, with options including natural stone, porcelain, concrete pavers, block paving, and resin-bound surfaces. We discuss advantages and limitations of each option including cost, maintenance, slip resistance, and longevity to help you make informed choices.
Can you install irrigation systems and outdoor lighting?
Yes, we incorporate irrigation and lighting systems into landscaping projects, working with qualified electricians and plumbers to ensure compliant installation. Automated irrigation reduces maintenance whilst targeted lighting extends garden enjoyment into evenings and enhances security and aesthetic appeal.
How do you ensure proper drainage in landscaping projects?
Effective drainage is fundamental to successful landscaping, and we assess existing conditions, create appropriate falls, install permeable surfaces where beneficial, and incorporate drainage systems including French drains, soakaways, and channel drains where necessary. Proper drainage prevents waterlogging, protects structures, and ensures healthy growing conditions.
What maintenance will my new landscape require?
Maintenance requirements vary depending on elements included, with hard landscaping generally requiring minimal attention beyond occasional cleaning whilst planted areas need regular watering during establishment, seasonal pruning, and ongoing weeding. We provide specific guidance tailored to your landscape and can offer maintenance contracts if preferred.
Can you create low-maintenance gardens?
Absolutely, we specialise in designing landscapes that balance aesthetic appeal with realistic maintenance expectations through appropriate material choices, planting selection, and design approaches. Low-maintenance solutions might include hard surfaces, automated irrigation, slow-growing plants, mulched beds, and simplified layouts.
Do you provide guarantees on landscaping work?
We guarantee workmanship for 12 months covering defects arising from faulty installation, though this excludes damage from misuse, ground movement, or extreme weather events. Material guarantees vary by product, with some manufacturers offering extended warranties on items like porcelain paving or composite decking.
Can you work around existing commitments and minimise disruption?
We understand projects affect daily life and work to minimise inconvenience through careful planning, efficient working practices, and considerate site management. We discuss access requirements, working hours, and any particular concerns during planning to ensure projects proceed as smoothly as possible.
How much does professional landscaping typically cost?
Costs vary enormously depending on garden size, design complexity, material choices, and extent of work required, with simple makeovers starting from several thousand pounds whilst extensive transformations can reach significantly higher figures. We provide detailed quotations following site visits, ensuring you understand exactly what's included and can make informed decisions about your investment.
