New Malden’s mix of 1930s semis, Edwardian houses and modern apartments means no two sites are the same. We regularly work on side access routes and rear gardens where barrow runs are tight and levels vary. In the concrete slabs New Malden area, we’re used to upgrading older paving or tired lawn sections into clean, usable zones. Our finishes complement everything from period brickwork to contemporary extensions.
We start with a site visit to check levels, access and what the slab will support, then provide a clear written specification. Sub-base preparation, reinforcement, expansion joints and drainage are planned from the outset to reduce cracking and standing water. We keep the site tidy, protect nearby surfaces, and communicate timings so you can plan around the work. Local homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, durable materials and a straightforward 10-year warranty.
Across KT3 we often find variable ground and legacy garden layers that need proper excavation and compaction. Parking and access can be limited on residential streets, so we plan deliveries and concrete pours to minimise disruption. We also account for drainage routes and boundary details common to 1930s plots and newer developments. If you need concrete slabs in Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, we tailor the build-up and finish to the site conditions.

Costs vary with thickness, access, excavation and finish. As a guide, plain concrete slabs often start around £90–£140 per m² installed. Coloured concrete, exposed aggregate or power-floated finishes typically fall in the £120–£200+ per m² range. Reinforcement, drainage channels, removal of old paving and waste disposal can add to the total. We’ll survey and provide a detailed, itemised quote.
Most domestic slabs take 1–3 days for groundworks and pouring, depending on size and access. A small shed base can be completed in a day, while larger patios may need extra time for excavation, sub-base compaction, formwork and drainage. Curing time matters too: light foot traffic is usually possible after 24–48 hours, but heavier loads should wait longer. Weather can also affect scheduling.
In many cases, garden slabs and patios are permitted development, so planning permission isn’t required. However, rules can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, affecting drainage to the highway, or working near listed buildings or within conservation constraints. For front gardens and driveway areas, permeable drainage and run-off control are important. We’ll advise on compliance and, where needed, help you check the relevant council guidance before work starts.
Yes. Our concrete slab installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship-related issues such as poor compaction, incorrect falls leading to persistent standing water, and defects linked to installation methods. Like all concrete, hairline shrinkage cracks can occur, but we reduce risk with reinforcement, correct curing and expansion joints. We also provide aftercare guidance to protect the finish and keep the surface looking its best.
We offer plain concrete for practical bases, coloured concrete for a warmer tone, and exposed aggregate for a decorative, slip-resistant surface. For texture, you can choose a brushed finish or a smooth power-floated look (best for sheltered areas). We also specify reinforcement where needed, add expansion joints to manage movement, and integrate drainage channels or soakaway connections. We’ll recommend the best option based on use, style and budget.
