If you need a tough, tidy surface for a patio, side return or bin-store area, our concrete slab installations are designed to last. We work across SE18, including projects near Royal Arsenal and around Woolwich Town Centre. Whether it’s a small garden base or a larger hardstanding, we focus on levels, drainage and clean edges. The result is a practical surface that looks sharp and stays stable year-round.
Woolwich has a mix of Victorian terraces, converted arsenal buildings and newer apartment blocks, each with different access and loading requirements. In terraces around Charlton and Plumstead, we often deal with narrow side access and existing thresholds that need precise levels. For modern developments, we plan deliveries and pours to minimise disruption to neighbours and shared areas. If you’re comparing concrete slabs Woolwich area options, we’ll guide you on thickness, reinforcement and finish to suit your property.
Our process starts with a site visit to check falls, ground make-up and where water should drain. We excavate properly, install a compacted sub-base, add reinforcement where needed, then pour and finish to your chosen look—brushed, power float, coloured, or exposed aggregate. Expansion joints are set out to reduce cracking and keep lines neat. Homeowners trust us because we communicate clearly, keep sites tidy, and stand behind our workmanship.
Across the Royal Borough of Greenwich, we regularly encounter mixed ground conditions and areas that hold water after heavy rain, so drainage and sub-base compaction are never an afterthought. Woolwich streets can be tight, especially near the Ferry and older terraces, so we plan access, parking and concrete deliveries carefully. We also match finishes to local property styles—from crisp modern power-float to textured brushed surfaces for safer steps. Our approach keeps your slab practical, compliant and built to last.

Costs in Woolwich typically range from about £90–£160 per m² for plain concrete, depending on thickness, access and groundworks. Coloured concrete, exposed aggregate or power-float finishes often sit around £120–£220 per m². If excavation is deeper, spoil removal is difficult, or reinforcement and drainage channels are required, the price can rise. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most domestic concrete slab jobs take 1–3 days on site, with larger areas or complex levels taking longer. Excavation, sub-base installation and reinforcement usually take a day, then pouring and finishing follows. Curing time matters: light foot traffic is often possible after 24–48 hours, but heavier loads should wait longer. Access restrictions, weather, and the chosen finish (e.g., exposed aggregate) can affect timescales.
Many garden patios and hardstanding areas are permitted development, but rules can apply where drainage affects the highway or where you’re creating a new driveway entrance. In the Royal Borough of Greenwich, you may need to ensure surface water drains to a permeable area within your boundary rather than the street. If your property is listed or within special constraints, extra checks may be needed. We’ll advise and help you stay compliant.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on our concrete slab installation workmanship. It covers issues linked to our build method, such as poor compaction, incorrect levels, or jointing that leads to premature movement. Normal wear, accidental damage, or problems caused by later alterations or extreme loading outside the agreed use aren’t covered. We also give clear aftercare guidance to help your slab cure properly and perform long term.
We offer plain concrete for clean, practical bases, plus coloured concrete for a warmer look that complements brickwork. For a higher-end finish, exposed aggregate adds texture and visual interest, while brushed finish improves slip resistance on paths and steps. Power-float creates a smooth, contemporary surface, ideal for modern apartments and courtyards. We’ll help you choose thickness, reinforcement, drainage details and joint layout to suit your space and use.
