From Bermondsey Street to Tower Bridge, outdoor spaces here need surfaces that cope with busy lifestyles and tight footprints. Our concrete slabs create crisp patios, shed bases and bin-store pads that stay level and easy to maintain. We can match the look of warehouse conversions with exposed aggregate, or keep it understated with a brushed finish. Every slab is laid with falls for drainage and neat edging details.
The Bermondsey food scene and riverside living often come with compact courtyards, roof terraces and shared access routes. We regularly work across SE1 and SE16 on converted warehouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments where access, noise and timing matter. Our team plans deliveries and pours to minimise disruption to neighbours and building management. If you’re upgrading a small garden near London Bridge or a larger space towards Rotherhithe, we tailor the build-up to suit the site.
We start with a site visit to check levels, ground conditions and how water currently moves across the area. Then we prepare a stable sub-base, install reinforcement where required, and pour with the right finish—power float for a sleek surface, or brushed for extra grip. Expansion joints are placed to reduce cracking and keep lines tidy. Homeowners choose us for clear quotes, tidy working practices and a 10-year warranty on workmanship.
In the London Borough of Southwark, access can be narrow and parking controlled, especially around Maltby Street Market and SE1 streets. We plan barrowing routes, concrete delivery times and waste removal to suit restrictions and neighbours. Ground conditions vary from made ground near old warehouse plots to tighter clay pockets, so we adjust sub-base depth and reinforcement accordingly. Where surfaces sit close to buildings, we set falls and drainage carefully to protect thresholds and basements.

For concrete slabs Bermondsey area projects, costs typically range from £90–£160 per m² for plain concrete, depending on thickness and access. Coloured concrete, exposed aggregate or power-floated finishes often sit around £120–£220 per m². Reinforcement, drainage channels, excavation depth and waste removal can add to the total, especially for SE1/SE16 sites with restricted access. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a survey.
Most small patio or base installs take 1–3 days on site, plus curing time before heavy use. Larger areas or complex levels can take 3–7 days, particularly if we’re excavating, adding drainage, or installing reinforcement and formwork. Weather, access for deliveries, and finish choice (e.g., exposed aggregate timing) can affect the schedule. We’ll confirm a realistic programme after measuring and checking ground conditions.
Many garden slabs and patios are permitted development, but rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, affecting drainage, or working in a listed building or conservation area. For front gardens and driveway-style areas, permeable drainage requirements are especially important. We’ll advise on best practice and can help you check any Southwark guidance that applies. If permissions are needed, we’ll plan the build to meet them.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our concrete slab installations, covering issues such as settlement caused by poor preparation, defective jointing, or drainage falls that were not installed as specified. Normal wear, accidental damage, and movement from external factors (like leaking drains or tree roots) aren’t covered. We also give aftercare guidance on curing, sealing options, and when to place heavy loads.
We offer plain concrete for a clean, cost-effective base, coloured concrete for a warmer tone, and exposed aggregate for a textured, premium look that suits modern Bermondsey properties. For slip resistance we often recommend a brushed finish, while power float gives a smooth, contemporary surface. We can add reinforcement, set-out lines and expansion joints for a crisp grid, and integrate drainage channels where needed. We’ll help you choose based on use, style and maintenance.
