Chislehurst homeowners expect paving that looks smart and performs year-round, especially on sloping drives and busy entrances. We install driveway block paving, patio block paving and pathways with clean edges and precise levels. From properties near Chislehurst Common to homes around BR7, we create surfaces that suit the setting and stand up to daily use. If you’re considering a dropped kerb, we can plan the layout to match your access needs.
The Chislehurst area has a mix of large detached houses, Victorian villas and period properties, often with generous front gardens and long driveways. Our designs complement traditional brickwork and heritage-style façades without looking out of place. We also work across Elmstead and Mottingham, tailoring colours and laying patterns to each home’s character. For clients wanting a more contemporary finish, we can specify sleek blocks and sharper detailing.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels and agree the best pattern design and edging. Groundworks are completed properly: excavation, sub-base build-up, compaction and drainage planning before any blocks are laid. Every installation is finished with careful jointing and tidy edges, then cleaned down for a crisp result. Fine Landscaping is trusted locally because we communicate clearly, keep sites organised, and back our work with a 10-year warranty.
Access and parking can be tight on some Chislehurst roads, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to keep disruption down. We also account for local ground conditions and tree roots near green spaces such as Chislehurst Common, adjusting excavation and edge restraints where needed. For projects that involve vehicle crossovers, we’ll advise on dropped kerb requirements and coordinate the paving design accordingly. Our experience across block paving in London Borough of Bromley helps keep installations compliant and durable.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
For block paving in the Chislehurst area, budgeting around £80–£120 per square metre is a sensible guide, depending on block type, pattern complexity, edging and drainage needs. Typical projects often fall between £3,200 and £6,000, but larger driveways for detached homes can be higher. Costs also vary with excavation depth, waste removal, and whether you need a new sub-base or a dropped kerb layout.
Most block paving jobs take 3–5 days from excavation to final jointing, assuming reasonable access and dry weather. Timescales can extend if the area is large, levels need significant adjustment, or additional drainage is required to manage surface water. Complex pattern designs and decorative borders also add time. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after the site survey and keep you updated as each stage is completed.
Many driveway and garden paving projects are permitted development, but rules can apply around surface water drainage, listed buildings, or conservation considerations. If you’re creating or widening a driveway, you may need to ensure water drains to a permeable area or suitable system rather than the road. Requirements can also affect dropped kerbs and vehicle crossovers. We’ll advise on the likely requirements and help you plan a compliant specification.
Yes. Our block paving installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including issues such as sinking caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, loose edging, or jointing failures under normal use. The warranty relies on the surface being used as intended and maintained sensibly, such as keeping joints topped up if needed and avoiding heavy loads beyond design. We’ll explain what’s covered and provide aftercare guidance.
We offer a wide range of colours, sizes and finishes, including traditional tumbled blocks for period homes and sharper contemporary blocks for modern styling. Popular patterns include herringbone for driveways, stretcher bond for patios, and bespoke pattern designs with contrasting decorative borders. We can also integrate pathway paving to match the driveway and add neat kerbs or edging. We’ll bring samples and recommend options that suit your property and budget.
