Landscaping for homes in Covent Garden
In Covent Garden, WC2, levels, drainage and how the garden is reached decide feasibility long before a planting plan matters.
Levels and drainage are resolved before surfaces are set. Tree surgery, ecology and boundary structures are scoped separately when the brief reaches them.

For landscaping, that context matters. Local character in Covent Garden is often summarised as “Converted buildings”, and access and neighbour density still vary address by address. Send photographs from the house looking out and from the far end looking back, rough dimensions, and note how materials can reach the garden.
