If you want a patio with character and a truly individual layout, crazy paving is hard to beat. We design and install natural stone surfaces across BR1 and BR2, creating patios and pathways that suit everything from relaxed family gardens to formal entertaining spaces. Many clients around Shortlands and near Bromley South station choose crazy paving to soften modern extensions and add charm to older homes. Every layout is hand-set for a balanced, intentional look.
Bromley’s mix of large detached houses, Victorian villas and modern developments calls for flexible design. We regularly work on wider plots in Bickley as well as tighter side access projects in Bromley Common, tailoring stone sizes and joint lines to the scale of the property. For period homes, we often specify warmer sandstone tones; for contemporary builds, slate and cooler greys can look sharper. Our aim is a surface that complements your architecture and feels “right” year-round.
We start with a site visit, measure-up and clear design guidance, then prepare a proper sub-base for strength and drainage. Stones are selected, cut and laid to a planned pattern, then jointed and finished for a clean edge against lawns, beds and steps. You’ll get clear scheduling, protection for surrounding areas, and a thorough clean-down at handover. Homeowners trust us for consistent workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
In the London Borough of Bromley we often encounter clay-heavy ground, which needs careful excavation depth and a well-compacted sub-base. Parking and access can vary, especially near The Glades Shopping Centre and busier routes, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. Many properties have long side passages or landscaped rear gardens, so we tailor material handling and cutting setups to suit. Where drainage is a concern, we can incorporate falls and permeable jointing options.

For crazy paving in the Bromley area, most homeowners budget £70–£120 per square metre depending on stone type, thickness, cutting complexity and access. Typical projects come in around £2,500–£5,500 for a patio or combined patio-and-path scheme. Costs can rise with extensive groundworks, steps, retaining edges, intricate curves or premium stone selection. We’ll provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most crazy paving installations take 3–5 days for an average patio, assuming normal access and no major surprises below ground. Timescales depend on excavation needs, curing time for the bedding layer, the amount of cutting required, and whether you’re adding steps, drainage channels or multiple levels. Weather can also affect progress, particularly during heavy rain. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule before work starts.
In many cases, a garden patio or pathway is permitted development and doesn’t need planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re working at the front of the property, altering levels significantly, affecting drainage to the public highway, or if the home is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and can advise on permeable solutions and best practice to stay compliant.
Yes. Our crazy paving installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including the stability of the build-up, correct installation of the sub-base, and issues caused by poor laying or jointing. Natural stone is a variable material, so colour variation is expected and isn’t considered a defect. We’ll also explain how to maintain the surface and what to avoid to keep it looking its best.
We install Natural Stone Crazy Paving, including slate crazy paving and sandstone crazy paving, plus mixed-stone blends for a more rustic look. Design options include random or semi-random layouts, tighter joints for a cleaner finish, contrasting pointing colours, and custom shapes around planters, steps and drains. We’ll bring samples, recommend colours that suit your brickwork and garden style, and help you choose a finish that performs well in UK weather.
