If you need a clean, durable base for a patio, shed, bin store or driveway, our concrete slab installations are designed to last. We work across SE15, including routes near Nunhead Green and Telegraph Hill Park, where access and levels can vary from street to street. From neat garden paths to larger hardstanding areas, we pour and finish concrete to suit how you use the space. Every job includes careful preparation so the surface stays stable and safe.
Nunhead’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period cottages often come with narrow side returns, stepped gardens and older boundary walls. That means concrete slabs nunhead area projects need accurate setting-out, tidy spoil removal and sensible delivery planning. We regularly coordinate pours where access is tight and neighbours are close by, keeping the site organised and considerate. The result is a crisp finish that complements period properties without looking overbuilt.
We start with a site survey, levels and falls, then design the build-up: sub-base, reinforcement, drainage and expansion joints. Finishes are completed to specification—brushed for slip resistance, power float for a smoother look, or exposed aggregate for texture. We protect surrounding paving and planting, keep you updated throughout, and leave the area clean. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, clear communication and a 10-year warranty on our concrete slab installations.
Working in the London Borough of Southwark, we’re used to mixed ground conditions, mature tree roots and sloping plots around Nunhead Cemetery. Access can be restricted on residential streets, so we plan deliveries, barrowing routes and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for shared boundaries and older brickwork typical of SE15 terraces, setting levels carefully to avoid damp bridging. If you need concrete slabs in London Borough of Southwark that are practical and tidy, we tailor the build to your property.

Costs vary with thickness, access, excavation and finish. As a guide in SE15, plain concrete slabs for patios and bases often start around £90–£140 per m², while coloured concrete, exposed aggregate or power-floated finishes commonly fall in the £130–£220 per m² range. Reinforcement, drainage channels and removal of old surfaces can add to the total. We provide a clear written quote after a site visit.
Most domestic pours take 1–3 days on site, depending on size and preparation. Excavation, sub-base compaction, formwork and reinforcement typically take the longest; the pour and finishing is often completed in a day. Curing time matters too: light foot traffic may be possible after 24–48 hours, but heavier loads usually need longer. Weather, access in Nunhead streets, and bespoke finishes can extend timescales.
Many garden slabs and patios are permitted development, but rules can apply if you’re changing levels significantly, affecting drainage, or creating a new or enlarged driveway. For front gardens, permeable drainage is often important to avoid runoff onto the highway. If your property is near protected areas or has specific restrictions, extra checks may be needed. We’ll advise during the survey and can help you confirm requirements with Southwark Council.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on our concrete slab installations, covering workmanship issues such as settlement from inadequate base preparation, poor finishing, or jointing problems. It’s based on the slab being used as intended and not being overloaded beyond design. We also give aftercare guidance on curing, sealing (where applicable) and cleaning, so the surface stays looking good for longer in London conditions.
We offer plain concrete for clean, practical areas, coloured concrete for a warmer tone, and exposed aggregate for a textured, decorative finish. For slip resistance, a brushed finish is popular on paths and steps; for a smoother contemporary look, many homeowners choose power floating. We can also include reinforcement, drainage details and neat expansion joints to suit the layout. We’ll help you choose based on use, maintenance and how it fits your home’s style.
