Response within 24 hours
A well-laid concrete driveway gives you a crisp entrance, reliable parking and low maintenance year-round. We install and repair driveways across SE21, SE22 and SE24, including routes near Dulwich Park and Dulwich Village. From careful excavation to tidy edges and drainage, every stage is planned to protect your property and kerb appeal. Expect a finish that looks smart from day one and performs for years.
Dulwich has an affluent village atmosphere with outstanding period architecture, and driveways need to complement it. We regularly work on Georgian and Victorian houses, plus larger detached properties where turning space and multiple bays matter. In East Dulwich and West Dulwich, access can be tighter, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also match colours and textures to brickwork, railings and garden boundaries common in the area.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels check and clear specification so you know exactly what’s included. We install a proper sub-base, reinforce where required, and form falls to guide water away from buildings. Fine Landscaping keeps the site organised, communicates daily progress, and finishes with a thorough clean-down. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent pricing and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
We’re used to working on residential streets in the London Borough of Southwark, where parking and access can be limited. In Dulwich Village and around Dulwich College, we plan vehicle movements and material drops to keep disruption down. Ground conditions vary between compacted made ground and heavier soils, so we adjust sub-base depth and reinforcement accordingly. We also design falls and drainage details to suit Southwark requirements and your property’s thresholds.

Most projects in Dulwich fall within £50–£100 per square metre, depending on excavation depth, access, and the finish you choose. Standard concrete is usually the most cost-effective, while pattern imprinted, coloured concrete or exposed aggregate can sit towards the upper end. Typical total costs are often £2,000–£5,000 for a domestic driveway, with larger detached plots or extensive groundwork costing more.
A typical concrete driveway installation takes 2–4 days on site, followed by curing time before heavy vehicle use. Timing depends on the size of the area, how much excavation and sub-base work is needed, and whether you choose pattern imprinted or exposed aggregate finishes. Restricted access in streets around SE21–SE24 can also affect logistics. We’ll confirm a schedule after surveying levels, drainage and entry points.
Many driveway works are permitted development, but rules can apply to surface water drainage, listed buildings, and conservation considerations. In Southwark, it’s important that rainwater is managed correctly, often by directing it to a permeable area or suitable drainage solution rather than the public highway. We’ll advise on compliant falls and drainage options and can help you understand when permission or additional checks may be needed for your property.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our concrete driveway installations. It covers issues such as failure due to poor installation, including problems linked to sub-base preparation, levels and falls, and finishing defects. It doesn’t cover damage from misuse, impact, de-icing salts used incorrectly, or ground movement outside our control. We also give clear aftercare guidance to protect the surface during curing and beyond.
We offer standard concrete, brushed finish for extra grip, coloured concrete, exposed aggregate for a premium textured look, and pattern imprinted designs that mimic stone or setts. We also carry out repairs, including patching, crack treatment and re-finishing where suitable. We’ll help you choose a finish that suits your home’s style, your preferred maintenance level, and practical needs such as slip resistance and turning space.
