A cobbled driveway brings character, grip and long-term durability to SE12 homes, whether you’re close to Lee Green crossroads or nearer Manor House Gardens. We design and install natural cobbles, granite setts and Belgian block to suit your frontage and parking needs. Choose traditional patterns for period kerb appeal or modern layouts for a cleaner look. Every build includes the groundwork that keeps setts stable and level.
We work across the cobblestone driveways Lee Green area, including Blackheath, Hither Green and Grove Park, with a quick 30-minute run from our base. Lee Green’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis and 1930s houses often need practical solutions for narrow access, sloping approaches and shared boundaries. We plan turning space, thresholds and bay parking carefully so the driveway works day-to-day. The result is a finish that complements brick façades and period detailing rather than fighting it.
Our process starts with a site survey, levels check and a clear specification for sub-base, bedding and jointing. We integrate drainage to meet current surface-water rules, then lay setts with consistent lines, tight joints and robust edging. You’ll get straightforward scheduling, tidy working practices and a handover that explains aftercare. Local homeowners choose us for craft-led installation, honest advice and results that stay put.
Across the London Borough of Lewisham, we often see mixed ground conditions and older front gardens converted to parking. We set levels carefully to protect air bricks and thresholds, and we plan deliveries and waste removal around on-street parking near Lee station and Leegate Shopping Centre. Where access is tight, we phase materials and keep pathways safe. Our detailing suits local period homes while meeting modern drainage expectations.

Costs vary with area, excavation depth, access and the sett type. As a guide, professionally installed cobbled or granite sett driveways in SE12 often range from around £180–£320 per m², with premium stone, complex patterns, steps or extensive drainage pushing higher. Smaller driveways can have higher per‑m² rates due to fixed setup costs. We provide a written, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most cobblestone driveway projects take 5–12 working days depending on size and complexity. Time is affected by excavation and spoil removal, sub-base build-up, drainage channels or soakaways, edging, and the laying pattern you choose. Weather can also slow bedding and jointing. If you need access during the build, we can often phase the work so you can still use part of the frontage safely.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but rules can apply if you’re altering access, working near a highway, or directing surface water to the street. In Lewisham, managing runoff is key, so we design permeable options or drainage to a suitable soakaway where required. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, extra checks may be needed. We’ll advise and confirm requirements before work starts.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our cobblestone driveway installations. This covers issues such as settlement caused by inadequate base preparation, loose edging, and failures in bedding or jointing when used under normal domestic vehicle loads. Natural stone itself is highly durable, but we’ll also explain what to expect from weathering and colour variation. Aftercare guidance is included to help keep the finish looking its best.
Popular choices include natural cobbles for a rustic look, granite setts for crisp lines and strength, and Belgian block for a classic, premium finish. Design options range from fan patterns and coursed setts to contemporary linear layouts, with contrasting borders and robust edging. We can also match or complement existing paths and brickwork. We’ll bring samples, discuss slip resistance and maintenance, then design a layout that suits your frontage and parking needs.
