From Southfields tube station to Wimbledon Park, kerb appeal matters on streets where period homes sit close to the pavement. Our cobblestone driveway installations combine natural cobbles, granite setts and Belgian block to create a surface that feels timeless yet practical. We can match existing brickwork and boundary walls, or introduce a bold contrast with darker setts and clean lines. Every build includes proper sub-base preparation so the finish stays level and attractive.
Southfields homeowners often want a driveway that suits Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and 1930s semis without looking over-engineered. We design widths, turning space and thresholds to work with shorter front gardens and shared access points common around SW18. For properties near the Southfields Grid, we’re careful to keep detailing consistent across the frontage, including neat transitions to paths and steps. If you’re restoring an older sett drive, we can lift, re-bed and relay to bring it back to its best.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear plan for falls and water run-off before any digging begins. Installation is handled by experienced groundworkers, with careful edging, compaction and jointing to reduce movement over time. You’ll get straightforward communication, tidy working practices and a finish inspected against our quality checklist. Local clients choose us for dependable scheduling, durable craftsmanship and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
In the London Borough of Wandsworth, front gardens can be compact and access can be tight, so we plan deliveries, parking and waste removal carefully. We set accurate falls to suit local rainfall and avoid water sitting near thresholds, with drainage options where required. Around Wimbledon Park and Earlsfield, we often work with mixed boundary levels and older brickwork, so we detail edges and transitions to look original. We also consider street parking and practical turning space when shaping the layout.

Costs in SW18 vary with size, access and material choice. As a guide, professionally installed cobbles or granite setts often range from £180–£320 per m², including excavation and sub-base. More intricate patterns, premium Belgian block, additional edging, steps or drainage can push pricing higher. Restoration (lifting and relaying existing setts) may be lower per m² if materials are reusable, but depends on the condition of the base.
Most cobblestone driveway projects take around 5–10 working days, depending on area and complexity. Smaller front drives may be completed in under a week, while larger layouts with extensive edging, drainage integration or multiple patterns can take longer. Timescales are affected by excavation depth, waste removal logistics, curing/settling time for the sub-base, and weather. We provide a clear programme before starting and keep you updated daily.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but rules can apply to drainage and the amount of impermeable surfacing at the front of a property. In practice, using permeable construction or directing run-off to a suitable area can help meet requirements. If your home is in a restricted area or has specific conditions, extra checks may be needed. We review your site, advise on compliant drainage options, and can help you confirm requirements with Wandsworth.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering installation workmanship, including sub-base preparation, bedding and laying standards, and edging stability under normal domestic use. If issues arise due to workmanship—such as significant settlement, movement or failed joints—we’ll inspect and put them right. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, heavy commercial vehicles, or problems caused by third-party alterations. You’ll also receive care guidance to keep the surface looking its best.
We offer natural cobbles, granite setts and Belgian block in a range of sizes and tones—from warm greys to charcoal and mixed blends. Design options include traditional fans, arcs and coursed setts, plus modern linear layouts with contrasting borders. Edging can be granite, brick or kerb setts for a sharp frame. We’ll bring samples, recommend patterns that suit your property style, and design for practical parking and drainage.
