From servicing bays near Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre to access routes by Strata Tower, your surface needs to stay safe, compliant and presentable. Fine Landscaping installs commercial driveways that handle frequent traffic, turning circles and delivery schedules without rutting or cracking. We deliver heavy duty paving, tarmac, concrete and block paving with proper sub-base build-ups. If you need bays, arrows or keep-clear zones, our line marking completes the job.
Elephant & Castle is a fast-changing transport hub with modern developments alongside Victorian terraces and new-build apartments across SE1 and SE17. We regularly work around tight access, basement levels and shared forecourts in Kennington and Walworth, where space and drainage are critical. Our team designs surfaces that suit high footfall entrances, loading areas and car parks. For property managers, we keep disruption low and programmes predictable.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear specification covering HGV rating, falls, edging and drainage. You’ll receive a written schedule, tidy working practices and quality-controlled materials from trusted UK suppliers. Every installation is finished to a clean, professional standard, with optional maintenance contracts to protect appearance and performance. Local clients choose us because we communicate clearly and stand behind our workmanship.
In the London Borough of Southwark, we often encounter mixed ground conditions, legacy services and strict access constraints around busy roads. Elephant & Castle sites can require careful traffic management, timed deliveries and rapid reinstatement of pedestrian routes. We design drainage to cope with intense rainfall and hardstanding run-off, and we coordinate waste removal and parking impacts. Our approach suits everything from new-build forecourts to older terrace frontages and shared blocks.

Costs vary by build-up depth, access, drainage and finish. As a guide, tarmac commercial driveways often start around £90–£140 per m², while heavy duty block paving is typically £120–£200 per m². Reinforced concrete is commonly £110–£180 per m² depending on thickness and steel. Line marking and drainage are usually priced separately after a site survey in SE1/SE17.
Most projects take 3–10 working days, depending on area size, excavation depth and whether drainage or kerb edging is required. Tarmac can be quicker once the base is prepared, while block paving and concrete may take longer due to laying, curing and detailing. Restricted access near busy routes, out-of-hours working, and phased handovers for tenants can also extend the programme.
Many driveway and hardstanding works are permitted, but rules can apply where you’re changing access, working near the highway, or affecting drainage. Permeable surfacing or compliant run-off solutions may be required to avoid water discharging onto public roads. If your site is within special planning constraints or a managed development, extra approvals may be needed. We check requirements and advise before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our commercial driveway installations, covering issues such as settlement caused by incorrect sub-base construction, edging failure, and installation-related defects. Materials are also covered by relevant manufacturer guarantees where applicable. The warranty assumes normal use for the specified loading class and that drainage is kept clear. Optional maintenance contracts help protect the surface and keep it looking sharp.
We install heavy duty paving in several finishes: tarmac for clean, cost-effective coverage; block paving for a premium look with easy spot repairs; and concrete for robust loading areas. We can add kerb restraints, contrasting borders, anti-skid finishes, and clear line marking for bays and routes. Drainage options include channel drains and permeable solutions where suitable. We’ll recommend the best specification for your traffic, layout and budget.
