The SW London Gardeners visit me twice a year, at the beginning and the end of the summer season. They always do a fantastic job tidying up the garden, cutting back the plants and also giving advice on anything that is needed. They make a huge difference in the few hours that they are in my garden. They are extremely professional and friendly, and I feel like I have found my ‘forever gardeners’.Posted on Kenzie Horn2024-06-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Scott, Mary, and Stuart were absolutely brilliant. They showed up on time, worked through some pretty terrible weather, and gave great advice about what would work in our space and be easy to maintain. We couldn't be happier with our garden!Posted on Ellie Loughnan2024-02-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We chose this company because of the reviews which referenced how considerate and professional this company are, but not even these do full justice to the wonderful team at The South West London Gardener company. Scott and David first took time to listen so carefully to what we wanted, not making us feel rushed and taking all of our requests and hopes seriously. They provided a clear quote within days of coming, and then arranged a date to begin work, all of which they stuck to. Scott, David and Mary then worked tirelessly, through even awful weather, to return a very loved (but neglected and complex) space into a tranquil, beautiful, nature-sensitive oasis. This included removal of huge amounts of garden waste, which they had to do through our flat, and this too was done carefully and thoughtfully. Every detail of work was completed to the highest standard and with care, skill and consideration. The entire team were just a joy to work with. The creativity, warmth and kindness they show, as well as the skill and craftsmanship with which they work, make them stand out to us as one of the best companies we have ever worked with; we won’t hesitate to use them again and again, and to recommend them widely.Posted on Vince & Celia Webb2024-01-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Posted on Vince2024-01-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Two years ago we used the Southwest London Gardener Ltd to plan and create a new front garden for our suburban home. We were so pleased with the result that when we decided to significantly change the design of our back garden there was no hesitation in again using these horticultural experts. The process begins with detailed discussions on what one wants from a new garden leisure space. Taking account of the aesthetic and practical nature of the garden, computer plans are produced and provide a starting point for the project. It is clear from those initial discussions that you are dealing with a wholly professional company. Throughout the design and creation of the garden you are kept fully appraised of progress and there is flexibility, on both sides, to adapt ideas as the new garden takes shape. We were extremely impressed with all members of the team and it is clear that the company use personnel with wide-ranging skills in design, structure, and horticultural knowledge. The team members are polite, friendly and respectful of your home and garden. They undoubtedly possess a great deal of pride in their work. Once the new garden is created the team provides detailed advice and guidance on the future care of plants, etc. We are delighted with our new back garden and have no hesitation in recommending Southwest London Gardener Ltd.Posted on David Anthony2023-05-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Scott, Mary and the rest of the team did a fantastic job with helping us design and landscape our garden. The team were thoroughly professional (yet approachable) and delivered a high quality product. They were happy to amend the original design during the course of the project and were able to offer bespoke solutions to make the most of our space. Would highly recommend.Posted on Priyen Patel2023-05-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Posted on Johnnie Parkhurst2023-03-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We found Scott during a Google search and decided to reach out to him after reading some very favourable reviews. Scott put us at ease as soon as we met him - he seemed genuinely interested in our project and keen to help. He also took the time to chat to our daughters, as he knew that their input was important as well - a true indication of how caring and considerate he is. When we later got a puppy, Scott was also sure to factor her needs in... When the work started, we quickly realised Scott only used extremely polite and engaging staff to work alongside - each employee has been a joy to have in & out of our house. Once the initial clearance was done, we kept in contact and he would check in periodically, often over a cup of coffee and contemplating the aspects of the garden that worked for us. He took the time to listen to our views and was always pragmatic in his approach. When we were ready to move onto the next steps, we talked at length about the project, and Scott made many notes and asked for a few days to digest everything we spoke about. His resulting drawings and project plans encapsulated extremely well what we had discussed, with a couple of suggestions from him based on his musings and knowledge of our garden (soil type, aspect, features etc.). As we were embarking on various different projects (garden/garden room/remodelling inside the house) it was imperative that all three teams involved were able to liaise with each other. We set up a meeting for all parties and found each group was willing to work alongside each other in a measured, considerate way. While main decisions were made with each contractor, we set up an email group for communication purposes. Scott in particular, as the man 'in the middle' between the house and the garden room, was extremely good at communicating some of the key dates, deliveries, measurements etc. While much of the garden work in these stages was clearance and preparation, Scott stressed that we should wait until the garden room was finished before making detailed plans, knowing full well that the 'feel' of our space would change once that was completed. It is this patience that I believe sets him apart from others who may choose to wow you with their vision (product placements/plant selections) at an earlier stage. When the garden room was nearly complete, Scott returned for the next stages - the friendly team now also included Mary, Scott's partner. It was quickly apparent that she is a key piece of the Southwest London Gardener jigsaw. Professional, hardworking and extremely talented, yet very unassuming (and an absolute pleasure to have around!). As the gardening works progressed, we discussed freely each aspect being tackled, and weighed up pros & cons of various planting/direction/material options, Scott & Mary provided much guidance during these stages and really helped us make some key decisions. We are just so happy with what they have achieved for us. They kept to their timings, kept to budget (where plans changed, reflection on pricing was done swiftly and fairly) and have given us a dream garden which we are looking forward to enjoying and seeing develop over the coming years.Posted on Rachel Baxter2023-02-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This team are amazing. They designed and landscaped our garden to a very high quality. Scott and Mary had so many great ideas and suggestions which transformed the garden for us. It was so easy to leave it in their hands to create the best space. They were also a pleasure to have around and were extremely friendly and considerate. We look forward to having them back to help maintain the beautiful garden they created.Posted on Matt Lilley2022-11-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Scott, Mary and the team did a fantastic job on a complete redesign and renovation of my garden (lifting of existing paving, replacing fencing, installing a deck and astroturf and planting). They were always professional and a pleasure to deal with. I really appreciated Scott's advice in terms of planning the project and formalising a design that would work well in the space.

Wimbledon Landscapers
Our team offer a professional landscaping service throughout Wimbledon.
If you’ve ever looked out at your garden and thought, “Where do I even start?”, you’re not alone. Some spaces feel tired. Others are just a blank canvas with no clear direction. Either way, the solution is the same. You need a clear plan and the right people to carry it out properly.
When we take on a garden in Wimbledon, we focus first on how you actually want to use it. Is it somewhere to entertain? A safe space for the kids? A quiet spot to sit with a coffee? Once that’s clear, everything else starts to fall into place. Paths, decking, patios and pergolas give the garden structure and purpose. Lawns, flower beds and planting bring warmth and character.
A lot of people think it’s about choosing one feature and building around it. In reality, the best gardens feel balanced because everything has been considered together. A wooden pergola at the end of the garden creates a lovely focal point. Add a healthy green lawn underneath and climbing plants wrapping around the posts, and it suddenly feels welcoming rather than just functional.
No matter what stage your garden is at, our team of Wimbledon landscape gardeners can help. We’ve worked on all sorts of spaces across the area, from compact town gardens to larger family plots. The goal is always the same. Create something that looks good, works well, and still feels right years down the line.
So if you’re looking for a friendly local team, then get in touch with us today.
Wimbledon Garden Designers
Garden design isn’t easy, especially in Wimbledon, where space can be tight. When you’re working with a smaller garden, every square metre matters. There’s no room for guesswork. A carefully thought-out layout helps you fit in the features you really want without making the space feel cramped. Seating areas, planting, storage, pathways. It all needs to flow naturally.
Our garden design team have been doing this for years, and that experience shows in the details. We’ll sit down with you, get a feel for how you want to use the space, and shape a plan around that. Once the design feels right and you’re happy with it, we move forward with confidence and start bringing it to life properly.
Tidying Up Your Wimbledon Garden
If you’re thinking about giving your garden a fresh start, that’s where we come in. We cut back overgrown bushes, remove green waste responsibly, clear out dead plants, and replace them with healthier, better-suited options. It’s not just about making things look neat. It’s about getting the garden back into a manageable condition so it stays that way.
Not everyone has the time, energy or inclination to stay on top of it all, and there’s no shame in that. We step in, sort it properly, and leave you with a space you can actually enjoy again. Before long, your Wimbledon garden becomes something you’re proud to show off rather than something you avoid looking at.
If that sounds like exactly what you need, get in touch today and let’s get it sorted.
We also offer gardening services in surrounding areas such as:
Southfields, Earlsfield, Balham, Richmond, Putney, Barnes, Sheen, Raynes Park
Wimbledon Gardening FAQs
We have offices in nearby locations, so Wimbledon is definitely local to our team. This makes getting to you much more simple and efficient and means we know the local area and climate well, so know what works in a garden.
We offer comprehensive garden services throughout Wimbledon, including regular garden maintenance, complete garden design, both hard and soft landscaping, plant sourcing, garden tidying, sustainable green waste removal, pruning, and plant replacement. Whether you need ongoing maintenance to keep your garden looking its best, a complete transformation, or help creating a safe outdoor space for children and working from home, our experienced team can help. We handle everything from wooden pergolas and decking to lawn care and flower beds – essentially, whatever your Wimbledon garden needs.
Absolutely. Many Wimbledon gardens are compact, which makes meticulous design even more crucial. Our garden design team has years of experience maximising outdoor spaces and fitting in all your desired features, no matter the size constraints. We understand that every square metre counts in smaller gardens, so we create carefully drawn plans that make the most of your available space. During the design stage, we’ll work closely with you to understand your needs, budget, and time constraints, then formulate a plan that transforms your garden into exactly what you’ve been dreaming of.
We offer gardening services throughout Wimbledon and the surrounding areas, including Southfields, Earlsfield, Balham, Richmond, Putney, Barnes, Sheen, and Raynes Park. With offices in both Wandsworth and Twickenham, we’re perfectly positioned to serve gardens across Southwest London with the same high standard of service and local expertise.
The easiest way to understand the difference is to think about the materials you’re using. Hard landscaping involves solid materials like wood, stone, concrete, and decking – think garden paths, patios, pergolas, sleeper beds, and fencing. Soft landscaping uses living materials like plants, flowers, trees, shrubs, and lawns. However, these two work best when used together. Imagine a wooden pergola at the end of your garden with a lush green lawn underneath and climbing plants adorning it – that’s the perfect combination that can truly transform your Wimbledon garden.
Yes, we absolutely do. We understand that not everyone loves gardening or has the time to care for their garden properly, especially when colder weather arrives, winds strengthen, and nights draw in. If you find it hard to keep on top of your gardening, we can take care of it for you with regular maintenance visits. Our team will handle everything from cutting back bushes and removing dead plants to sustainable green waste removal and replanting. Before you know it, you’ll be proud to show off your wonderful Wimbledon garden rather than avoiding it. Get in touch today to discuss a maintenance schedule that works for you.
We handle all green waste sustainably and responsibly. As registered waste carriers with the Environment Agency (Licence No. CBDU413066), we follow proper environmental procedures when removing garden waste. Rather than simply dumping materials, we recycle and compost wherever possible, giving garden waste new life instead of sending it to landfill. This sustainable approach is part of our commitment to natural gardening practices and environmental responsibility. Whether you need a one-off clearance or regular waste removal as part of ongoing maintenance, you can trust us to handle it in the most environmentally friendly way possible.
