Peckham’s busy streets and varied homes deserve a driveway that performs as well as it looks. We design and install cobblestone driveways that suit everything from Victorian terraces near Peckham Rye Park to converted warehouse-style frontages by Copeland Park. Our team works across SE15, delivering traditional patterns or sharper contemporary layouts. Every build includes a considered sub-base, neat edging and proper falls for drainage.
Local homes in Peckham range from Georgian houses and Victorian terraces to modern conversions around Queen’s Road and Nunhead. These properties often have tight front gardens, shared access routes and existing brickwork that needs a sympathetic match. We help you choose cobbles and setts that complement period details, railings and boundary walls. If you’re updating an older entrance, we can also restore and re-lay existing stone where practical.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear plan for excavation, sub-base and drainage integration. You’ll get a written specification, tidy working practices and straightforward communication from start to finish. Our installation focuses on correct compaction, stable bedding and crisp lines so the surface stays even. Homeowners trust us for reliable scheduling, premium materials and workmanship backed by a long warranty.
In the cobblestone driveways peckham area, access can be tight, with limited parking and narrow front boundaries. We plan deliveries, spoil removal and working hours to minimise disruption and keep neighbours on side. Ground conditions and levels vary across the London Borough of Southwark, so we build robust sub-bases and set falls carefully to manage surface water. Materials and patterns are chosen to suit local brick façades and period detailing.

Costs in SE15 typically range from about £170–£320 per m², depending on stone choice (natural cobbles, granite setts or Belgian block), excavation depth, access, and drainage requirements. Small frontages can cost more per m² due to setup and waste removal. If you’re restoring and re-laying existing setts, budgets may be lower, but allowance is needed for sub-base repairs and edging.
Most installations take around 5–10 working days once work starts. Timescales depend on driveway size, excavation depth, whether old surfacing needs breaking out, and how much drainage integration is required. Complex patterns, curved edging and steps can add time. Poor weather can also slow down laying and jointing. We’ll confirm a realistic programme after surveying levels and access.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but rules can apply around surface water drainage, listed buildings, conservation areas and changes to access. In Southwark, it’s important that water doesn’t run onto the highway and that drainage is handled correctly. We’ll advise on compliant permeable options or drainage solutions, and we can help you check any local constraints before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our cobblestone driveway installations. This covers issues such as settlement caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, loose edging, or movement related to installation faults. Natural stone itself can vary in colour and texture, which is part of its character, but we only use quality materials. We’ll also explain maintenance and aftercare to keep joints stable.
You can choose from natural cobbles, granite setts and Belgian block, with finishes and tones to suit your frontage. Popular designs include traditional fan or stretcher patterns, soldier-course borders, and cleaner modern layouts with contrasting edging. We can incorporate drainage channels, recessed manhole covers and thresholds to match paving or paths. We’ll bring samples and recommend a layout that fits your property style and parking needs.
