If you want a hard-wearing base for a patio, bin store or side return, concrete slabs are a smart, low-maintenance choice. We install slabs across SW1, with projects around Tate Britain and Pimlico tube station. Our finishes range from brushed for extra grip to power float for a sleek, contemporary look. Every pour is planned to suit how you use the space, not just how it looks on day one.
Pimlico’s Regency townhouses, mansion blocks and period conversions often come with compact gardens, lightwells and shared access routes. That means levels, thresholds and drainage details matter, especially where paving meets brickwork and basement areas. We regularly work in the concrete slabs Pimlico area, including Westminster and Victoria, and we’re used to protecting existing stone, railings and planting. The result is a surface that complements period architecture while standing up to daily foot traffic.
We start with a site visit to check levels, falls and access, then specify the right build-up and reinforcement. You’ll get clear options for plain concrete, coloured concrete or exposed aggregate, plus joint layout and edging details. We install with proper compaction, controlled curing, and expansion joints to reduce cracking risk. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy working practices and a written 10-year warranty.
Access in Pimlico can be tight, with controlled parking zones and shared entrances in mansion blocks, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. In the City of Westminster, we pay close attention to drainage routes and falls to avoid water tracking towards basements and lightwells. We also adapt slab thickness and reinforcement to suit existing sub-bases and tree roots near garden squares such as St George's Square. Our team works respectfully around neighbours, building managers and listed-style details common in SW1.

For concrete slabs in Pimlico, typical supply-and-install prices often range from about £90–£160 per m² for plain concrete, depending on thickness and access. Coloured concrete and exposed aggregate usually sit around £120–£220 per m². Costs vary with excavation depth, waste removal, reinforcement, edging, and whether a brushed finish or power float is specified. We’ll provide an itemised quote after a site survey in SW1.
Most small patios and paths take 2–5 days on site, with larger areas or complex levels taking 1–2 weeks. Time depends on excavation, sub-base preparation, reinforcement, drainage details and weather. Concrete also needs curing time before heavy use; light foot traffic is often possible after 24–48 hours, but we typically advise waiting 7 days before placing heavy planters or furniture.
In many cases, a rear garden patio or path is permitted development, so planning permission isn’t required. However, rules can change if you’re altering access, working near a basement/lightwell, or if the building is listed or within a conservation area. Drainage is key: surfaces should be designed to manage runoff responsibly. We’ll check the City of Westminster requirements and advise on compliant falls and drainage before work starts.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our concrete slab installations, covering workmanship issues such as poor compaction, incorrect falls, or jointing faults that lead to premature failure. It also covers problems arising from incorrect reinforcement placement where specified. The warranty doesn’t cover impact damage, structural movement outside our control, or alterations by others. We’ll explain care and curing guidance to help your slab perform for decades.
We offer plain concrete for a clean, cost-effective surface, plus coloured concrete for warmer or contemporary tones. Exposed aggregate is popular in SW1 for a decorative, slip-resistant finish that suits period courtyards. You can choose brushed finish for grip or power float for a smoother look, and we’ll design expansion joints to suit the layout. We’ll help you select thickness, reinforcement and drainage details based on use and site levels.
