If you’re planning an extension, garden room or new wall near Tolworth Tower or along Tolworth Broadway, the right foundation is where everything starts. Fine Landscaping delivers engineered concrete bases that suit your build and your ground conditions. We install strip foundations, pad foundations and wall footings with careful setting-out and levels. Work is carried out with safety, tidy site control and clear communication throughout.
Tolworth homes range from 1930s semis to post-war houses and newer developments around KT5 and KT6. These properties often need foundations tailored to existing drains, shared boundaries and access constraints. We regularly support projects linking Tolworth with Surbiton, Chessington and Worcester Park, where plot sizes and layouts can vary street to street. Our team adapts foundation depth, reinforcement and sequencing to match the structure above.
We start with a site visit, discuss loads and layout, then confirm the best foundation type—strip, pad, raft or deep foundations where required. Excavation, shuttering, reinforcement and concrete pours are managed to spec, with Building Control considerations built in from day one. You’ll get straightforward updates, clean edges and accurate levels ready for the next trade. Homeowners trust us because we don’t cut corners and we document what’s been installed.
Across the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, ground conditions can change quickly between streets, especially near older drains and made ground around redeveloped plots. In Tolworth, access and parking can be tight on residential roads, so we plan deliveries, skips and concrete pours to avoid disruption. We also account for neighbouring structures and boundary walls common with 1930s semis. Where needed, we coordinate with engineers and Building Control to keep everything compliant.

Costs depend on foundation type, depth, access and how much excavation is required. As a guide, small pad foundations for posts or a garden structure often start from £600–£1,500. Strip foundations for an extension commonly fall in the £2,500–£7,500 range, while reinforced raft foundations can be £6,000–£15,000+. We’ll survey the site in KT5/KT6 and provide a detailed, itemised quote.
Most small foundation jobs take 1–3 days, including excavation, forming and pouring. Strip foundations for an extension are typically 3–7 working days depending on trench lengths, depth, spoil removal and whether inspections are needed before pouring. Raft foundations can take 5–10 working days due to sub-base preparation and reinforcement. Weather, access for wagons, and unexpected services (drains/cables) are the main factors that can extend timescales.
Concrete foundations themselves usually don’t require planning permission, but the structure they support might (for example, an extension or outbuilding). Even when planning isn’t needed, Building Regulations approval is often required for structural work, and Building Control may need to inspect trenches before concrete is poured. We’ll advise what applies in the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames and help you prepare the right information for your designer, engineer or inspector.
Yes. Our concrete foundation installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship and structural integrity of the foundation build-up as installed by our team. This includes correct placement, levels, reinforcement (where specified) and concrete works. It doesn’t cover movement caused by third-party structural changes, flooding, tree removal without assessment, or issues arising from designs altered after installation. We keep clear records so any query can be resolved quickly.
We offer strip foundations, pad foundations, raft foundations, wall footings and deep foundations where ground conditions demand it. Options include reinforced concrete with rebar cages or mesh, different concrete strengths, and insulated slab build-ups for garden rooms. We can also incorporate service ducts and set-out points for frames and brickwork. If an engineer’s design is provided, we build to it; if not, we can help arrange engineering input for the right solution.
