At the front of the home, a smart paved driveway style entrance was created with neat edging and a clear route to the front door. The light paving gives the property a bright and welcoming appearance, while the surrounding lawn and planting help soften the overall finish.

The front entrance was also upgraded with patterned tiles, creating a distinctive feature that adds character and kerb appeal. The tiled pathway and steps work well with the period style of the property while giving the entrance a more polished finish.

To the rear, the garden was designed around a fresh lawn, timber decking and soft planting borders. The lawn provides a clean and usable family space, while the decking creates a practical area for seating, dining and relaxing outdoors.

Planting was added along the boundaries to bring colour, texture and privacy into the garden. The finished result is a balanced front and rear garden transformation that feels tidy, functional and attractive from every angle.

Finchley Central Garden Project

The new decking creates a generous surface for outdoor seating, dining and entertaining. Its light grey finish gives the garden a bright contemporary look while connecting smoothly with the modern rear doors.

Composite decking was chosen for its smart appearance and low maintenance qualities. It offers the warmth of a timber style finish while being easier to care for throughout the year, making it a practical choice for busy London homes.

The raised structure gives the garden a more defined layout and creates a smooth transition between the house and lawn. Integrated steps provide easy access down to the garden, while the clean edging gives the whole area a polished finish.

Planting along the side of the deck softens the hard landscaping and adds natural colour, texture and privacy. The finished result is a stylish, low maintenance garden space that feels open, usable and ready for everyday outdoor living.

Light paving was installed near the house to create a clean patio area that connects smoothly with the garden. This gives the property a practical outdoor surface for seating while helping the whole space feel brighter and more spacious.

The planting borders along the side of the garden were carefully framed with timber edging. This adds warmth, structure and a natural finish, while the surrounding shrubs and greenery soften the boundaries and improve privacy.

East Finchley Garden Transformation

The main patio was finished with sleek grey porcelain style paving, giving the garden a contemporary and low maintenance surface. Its clean lines work well with the modern doors and windows, helping the outdoor area feel like a natural extension of the home.

Red brick paving was used to create contrast and define different zones within the patio. This detail adds warmth, character and a strong visual link to the brickwork of the property.

The layout provides a generous space for outdoor dining, relaxing and entertaining. The combination of open paving, colourful furniture and surrounding greenery makes the patio feel bright, usable and inviting.

Planting borders were kept around the edges to soften the hard landscaping and bring natural texture into the design. Existing plants and mature greenery help frame the space, adding privacy and a settled garden feel.

Wood Green Garden Patio Project

The main patio was finished with mixed size natural stone paving, giving the garden a warm and timeless look. The subtle variation in colour adds character, while the clean laying pattern keeps the space feeling smart and well organised.

Red brick edging was used around the patio to define the shape of the space and create a strong visual border. This detail works well with the existing brickwork of the house and helps the patio feel connected to the property.

The curved planting borders soften the paved area and bring greenery back into the design. Existing shrubs and trees were retained where suitable, while the refreshed beds give the garden a more cared for and complete finish.

New timber screening adds privacy and warmth along the boundary, helping the patio feel more enclosed and comfortable for everyday use. The finished result is a bright, low maintenance and highly usable garden space, ideal for outdoor seating, family use and entertaining.

Maureen, Totteridge and Whetstone Patio Project

The upper terrace creates a generous space for relaxing, dining and entertaining directly outside the home. Light paving was used to brighten the area and give the garden a clean, elegant finish. The raised position also provides a clear view across the lawn and planting below.

A central set of steps connects the patio to the lower garden, creating a strong visual feature and a smooth transition between the two levels. Timber retaining beds help frame the space while adding warmth and natural texture.

The lower garden was finished with a large lawn, giving the family an open and usable area for everyday enjoyment. Planting borders were added along both sides to soften the boundaries and introduce colour, greenery and seasonal interest.

New timber fencing improves privacy, while the pergola creates a defined seating area on the patio. The combination of timber, paving, lawn and planting gives the garden a warm and welcoming feel.

Garden lighting was also included to highlight the planting and make the space feel inviting in the evening. The finished result is a modern, functional and attractive garden that works beautifully for outdoor living.

Hazel New garden transformation

This N10 Muswell Hill garden transformation was designed to create a clean, modern and practical outdoor space for everyday living. The project focused on improving the layout, adding privacy and giving the garden a more refined finish with structured landscaping, soft planting and carefully chosen materials.

Perennial Gardens created a bright paved terrace directly outside the home, giving the client a usable area for relaxing, dining and entertaining. The light paving helps open up the space and creates a smooth transition from the house into the garden.

The central lawn adds freshness and balance, while the raised rendered beds give the garden a smart, architectural structure. These beds frame the lawn neatly and provide space for a layered planting scheme with shrubs, grasses and seasonal colour.

Horizontal timber slatted fencing was installed to create privacy while adding warmth and texture. This works beautifully with the planting and gives the garden a contemporary finish suited to a Muswell Hill home.

At the rear of the garden, a modern water feature creates a calm focal point. Integrated lighting along the raised beds adds atmosphere in the evening and helps the garden feel usable beyond daylight hours.

The finished result is a private, low maintenance and elegant London garden with a strong balance of paving, lawn, planting, fencing, lighting and garden features.

N10 garden transformation

This N20 garden transformation began after the customer’s building work was completed, leaving the outdoor space uneven, cluttered, and unfinished. They contacted Perennial Gardens in December 2025 to arrange a site visit, and after carrying out a full survey, it was clear the garden needed a complete redesign rather than minor repairs. The goal was to rebuild the space from the ground up, improve privacy, create clean levels, and deliver a garden that felt practical, polished, and ready for everyday use.

Once the plans and quotation were approved, work began on 6 January 2026. The first stage of this N20 garden transformation focused on the heavy groundwork. We carried out a full dig out and graded the area down using a digger, then removed all debris with a track barrow. In total, we cleared two full grab lorries and one skip of waste from the site, giving us a clean and stable base to rebuild the garden properly. With the groundwork complete, we installed new close board fence panels with concrete posts and concrete gravel boards, creating a stronger boundary and a much neater overall finish.

We then moved on to the hard landscaping, carefully preparing the patio area with accurate levels, a non woven weed control membrane, and a 200mm compacted sub base. The paving slabs were laid on a 4 to 1 concrete mix, with each slab primed for maximum contact and long term durability. To complete the soft landscaping, we applied 200mm of top soil beneath premium turf rolls and the new flower beds. A treated timber pergola was built on top of the patio to define the outdoor seating space, while a separate corner was finished with Cotswold chippings to create a small fireplace style seating area. We also installed pull and push bars for future training. The result is a complete N20 garden transformation with fresh turf, strong boundaries, premium paving, and bespoke features that make the space far more functional. After three weeks of work, the garden looked completely different, and the customer was very pleased with the final result.

N20 garden transformation

This N12 front garden project focused on improving kerb appeal, access, and day-to-day practicality. The original space felt dated and uneven, with tired block paving and an overgrown frontage that did not make the most of the property’s Victorian character.

We began by clearing the area and removing the existing surface materials, then carefully set new levels to create a cleaner, more defined layout. A new curved planting bed was formed to soften the frontage and introduce structure, while keeping the driveway space open and functional. We installed a solid concrete base where required and rebuilt the entrance detailing with precision so every line sat true and consistent.

To elevate the finish, we laid a tiled Victorian mosaic pathway in a traditional checkerboard pattern, framed with a crisp border to guide visitors from the gate to the front door. We also constructed a new low brick wall with a neat coping detail, giving the frontage a premium, long-lasting edge and helping retain the planting area.

The result is a smart, high end front garden with improved definition, a statement entrance, and a much more welcoming first impression. The client shared in their Google review: “Had a lovely experience with Villiam and his team. Prompt, respectful, hardworking and helpful. Would 100% recommend them and my driveway looks so gorgeous!”

This Finchley Central N3 project came to Perennial Gardens through a client recommendation. The homeowner wanted a complete refresh that would create a clean, usable lawn area with neat borders and a smarter overall finish. Every job is different, so we priced the work based on the site conditions and the scope agreed, with final costs able to change depending on factors such as ground preparation, access, and material choices.

The project ran over approximately three days. We started with a full strip out and preparation phase, clearing the space and setting accurate levels to support a long lasting result. The team then focused on improving the base and creating crisp edges, ensuring the garden would feel structured and easy to maintain. With the groundwork complete, we installed fresh turf and completed the finishing touches to achieve a premium, even look.

The client was very happy with the end result and praised the service from start to finish. Google review feedback included: “Delighted with the end result and the process to get there. Viljan and Abi did a tremendous job. Great comms in planning and throughout, lots of help with choosing the right materials, transparent pricing, very diligent & precise work, and lots of ideas to improve the scheme. Great couple of weeks working with them – would 110% recommend.”

The customer, who was delighted with the end result, left a 5-star review on google. He said: ”These people are very professional at their work”.
