What we do
Everything a garden needs, one Surrey team.
From full design-and-build transformations to patios, decking, driveways, fencing, turfing, garden rooms, lighting, irrigation and the year-round maintenance that keeps it all right — Surrey Landscapers has covered the lot across Reigate and Surrey since 1980.
01Service
Garden Design & Full Landscaping
When a garden needs more than a tidy-up, we take it back to the bones and rebuild it around how you actually use the plot. It starts with a bespoke design — a proper consultation that turns your outdoor space into a full landscaping plan — then one team carries the whole build: groundwork and levels first, then paving, structures, lawns and planting. One Reigate client watched a scruffy, tiered and uneven space become, in her words, a beautiful, level courtyard oasis.
02Service
Patios & Paving
Patios set the frame for everything else. We lay premium porcelain and sandstone to falls that drain properly, with edges cut clean and joints done right — built to sit level and look good for years, not to lift and rock after the first winter. One client had us build a large patio through the winter months and called the finished result a credit to our work.
03Service
Decking
A raised deck turns an awkward corner into somewhere you actually spend time. We install both timber and Millboard composite decking, framed on properly set posts so it stays level and safe underfoot — timber for warmth, composite where low upkeep and long life matter most. Every deck is sized and detailed to suit the garden it sits in and the way you'll use it.
04Service
Driveways
A driveway takes more punishment than any other surface in the garden, so the base underneath it matters more than the surface on top. Our dedicated driveway contractors excavate, lay and consolidate the sub-base properly, then finish in the surface that suits the house — set to drain, edged to hold, and built to carry the weight without rutting or spreading, with next to no upkeep afterwards.
05Service
Fencing
Boundaries make or break how a garden looks and feels. We handle all aspects of fencing, from a quick repair to a complete new run, in a wide range of styles. Posts are set properly so they hold in Surrey clay and wind, lines run straight, and the style is chosen to suit the garden it frames rather than fought against it.
06Service
Turfing & Artificial Grass
A lawn is only as good as the ground it goes on. We supply and lay quality natural turf over a properly prepared and levelled base so it roots and lasts — and for those who want a low-maintenance surface, we install artificial grass that stays green, drains well and is kind to children and pets. One family told us we turfed much more than we had originally quoted for, and added extra soil to their borders while we were at it.
07Service
Garden Rooms
A garden room adds a whole extra room without the upheaval of an extension. We design and build bespoke outbuildings to suit what you need — a garden office, a home gym, a studio or simply a good-looking shed — framed square and weathertight, and sited to work with the garden around it rather than dominate it.
08Service
Planting & Bed Creation
The planting is where a design comes to life. As part of our full soft-landscaping service we set out borders and beds to suit the soil and aspect, shape and maintain hedges, and plant or reshape trees — with honest advice on what will actually thrive where, so the garden fills out and matures the way it should.
09Service
Garden Lighting
The right lighting turns a garden into somewhere you can enjoy long after the sun goes down. We plan and install outdoor lighting schemes that pick out steps, paths and boundaries for safety, and pool light where you gather — designed as part of the wider garden so it feels considered rather than bolted on.
10Service
Irrigation Systems
A new lawn and freshly planted borders need consistent water to establish and thrive. We design and install efficient irrigation systems tailored to the garden — targeted where it's needed, easy to run, and set to keep lawns and plants perfectly watered through the seasons without waste or daily effort on your part.
11Service
Maintenance Services & Contracts
A garden we've built is worth looking after, and aftercare is how it reaches its best. We offer ongoing maintenance packages and contracts for existing clients — regular grass-cutting, hedge-trimming, weeding, pruning and seasonal attention — so the garden goes on developing and flourishing through the seasons rather than drifting back to where it started.
Materials & finishes
Chosen to last, not just to look good on day one.
Good landscaping is as much about the base you don't see as the surface you do. Here is what we tend to reach for, and why.
Natural stone & sandstone
Riven and sawn sandstone for patios and paths with a warm, natural finish — laid to falls so water runs off, not back toward the house.
Porcelain paving
Hard-wearing, low-maintenance porcelain for a crisper, contemporary look — near-zero staining and colour-stable through the seasons.
Millboard composite & timber decking
Decking framed on properly set posts so it stays level and safe underfoot — timber for warmth, Millboard composite where low upkeep and long life matter most.
Planting to suit soil & aspect
Borders, hedging and trees chosen for the light and soil they will actually live in, so they mature the way they should rather than just fill a border on day one.

How it works
Design, build, aftercare — one team.
01
Design & consultation
We come out, walk the plot with you and listen to how you actually live in the garden — sun, slope, drainage, the lot. Then we put a clear design and a no-obligation quote to it. Chris keeps you updated at every stage and gives you real options to decide between, rather than one take-it-or-leave-it plan.
02
Build
One crew carries the construction from groundwork and levels through hard landscaping, paving, structures and planting. We work tidy, explain each step in advance, and — as our reviews put it — often end up doing more than was quoted for. Larger transformations can run over several weeks; we keep the site orderly the whole way through.
03
Aftercare
A new garden is an investment, and it needs looking after to reach its best. Once the build is done we can keep it right — seasonal maintenance, lawn care and planting attention — so the garden goes on developing and maturing through the seasons rather than drifting back to where it started.
Before you call
Questions we're asked most.
Do you charge for a design consultation or quote?
No. The first consultation and the quote that follows are free and come with no obligation. We come out, walk the garden with you, listen to how you use it and then put a clear design and price to it — whether it's a single patio or a full transformation. You're under no pressure to go ahead.
What does RHS membership actually mean for me?
Being certified Royal Horticultural Society members means the horticulture behind your garden is held to a recognised standard, not just the paving. In practice it means honest, informed advice on what will thrive in your soil and aspect, and planting chosen to mature well rather than just look full on day one.
Do you only do big projects, or smaller jobs too?
Both. We take on full design-and-build transformations, but we also lay a single patio, build a driveway, put up a fence, turf a lawn or come back for regular maintenance. Plenty of clients start with one job and keep us on afterwards.
How long does a garden project take?
It depends entirely on the scope — a new lawn might be a day or two, a patio a week or so, and a full transformation several weeks. One of our steep-garden projects ran to twelve weeks. We'll give you a realistic timescale with your quote and keep the site orderly throughout.
Can you handle sloping or awkward gardens?
Very much so. A good deal of our work is on tiered, steep or uneven plots — building in the levels, drainage and structure a flat finish needs. One client's garden went from scruffy, tiered and uneven to a level courtyard oasis.
Can you look after the garden once it's built?
Yes, and it's worth doing. A new garden is an investment that reaches its best with care, so we offer ongoing maintenance — the same people who built it keeping it right, so it goes on developing and maturing through the seasons.
Not sure what the garden needs?
That's what the free consultation is for. We'll walk the garden with you, tell you straight what's involved, and put a clear plan and price to it.
