If you want a patio that feels crafted rather than cookie-cutter, crazy paving is a superb choice for Streatham gardens. We install natural stone crazy paving for patios, paths and seating areas that look at home near Streatham Common and the period streets off Streatham High Road. Each layout is hand-set to create a balanced pattern with clean lines and practical drainage. The result is a surface that’s hard-wearing, slip-conscious and full of texture.
Homes in Streatham Hill and Streatham Park often have generous rear gardens, side returns and stepped access, which makes careful planning essential. We regularly work with Victorian and Edwardian houses, mansion flats with shared outdoor spaces, and newer apartments needing smart communal paths. Our team understands how to complement brickwork, bay windows and traditional garden walls with the right stone colour and joint finish. The aim is always a premium finish that looks established from day one.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear design plan, then build a proper sub-base for long-term stability. Stones are selected and cut on-site, then pointed for a neat, weather-resistant finish. You’ll get tidy working practices, clear daily updates and a schedule that typically runs 3–5 days. Fine Landscaping is local (around 10 minutes away), and every installation is backed by a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
We’re used to the practicalities of the London Borough of Lambeth, including parking constraints and access through narrow side passages in SW16. Many Streatham gardens have mixed ground conditions and old hardstanding, so we excavate properly and build up levels to protect damp courses and thresholds. Where there are steps or sloping plots near Rookery Gardens, we set accurate falls and add discreet drainage where needed. The finish is tailored to the property style and how you actually use the space.

For crazy paving in the Streatham area, most projects fall within £70–£120 per square metre, depending on the stone type, thickness, cutting, edging and pointing finish. Typical total costs are often around £2,500–£5,500 for patios and pathways, but larger areas or complex levels can increase this. We provide an itemised quote after checking access, excavation requirements and drainage needs.
Most crazy paving jobs take 3–5 days from excavation to final pointing, assuming reasonable access and settled weather. Timings can extend if we’re removing old concrete, correcting significant level issues, or installing drainage and steps. Natural stone layouts also take longer than simple slabs because each piece is selected, cut and fitted by hand. We’ll confirm a clear schedule before work starts.
In many cases, garden patios and pathways are permitted development and won’t need planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re working to the front of the property, altering access, or if the home is listed or in a conservation area. Lambeth also expects good drainage practice, especially for front areas. We’ll flag any likely requirements and can advise on permeable options and compliant falls.
Yes. Our crazy paving installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including the stability of the sub-base, bedding and jointing/pointing when installed as specified. It’s designed to protect you against issues such as rocking stones, loose edges or premature joint failure caused by installation defects. Normal wear, accidental damage and problems from third-party alterations aren’t covered. We’ll explain care and maintenance to keep it looking its best.
We install Natural Stone Crazy Paving, Slate Crazy Paving and Sandstone Crazy Paving, tailored to your patio or pathway layout.

We can add edging, stepping stones, contrasting borders and bespoke shapes around planting beds. We’ll bring samples and help you choose a finish that suits light, drainage and day-to-day use.
