From Camberwell Green to Denmark Hill station, homeowners want driveways that look smart and cope with daily use. We design and build block paving, resin, tarmac, gravel and concrete driveways that improve kerb appeal and parking. Whether you’re updating a tired frontage or creating a new off-street space, we handle the full build. We also include proper drainage so surfaces perform well in heavy rain.
Camberwell (SE5) features Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and contemporary apartments, each with different access and frontage layouts. We’re used to working with narrow entrances, shared boundaries and small front gardens common around Denmark Hill and Peckham. Our team matches materials and edging details to complement brickwork, railings and period paths. For modern blocks, we can create clean lines and low-maintenance finishes that stay crisp year-round.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear written specification, then prepare a stable sub-base and install the chosen surface to British standards. Every project includes tidy working practices, considerate scheduling and a thorough handover. Homeowners choose us because we communicate clearly, protect surrounding landscaping and get the falls right for drainage. Our work is backed by a 10-year warranty for added peace of mind.
As driveway contractors in London Borough of Southwark, we plan around controlled parking, delivery access and busy streets near King’s College Hospital. Camberwell’s frontages often sit above pavement level, so getting falls, steps and thresholds right is essential. We also consider clay-heavy ground and tree roots that can affect long-term stability. Our solutions prioritise strong sub-bases, neat edging and drainage that works with your site.

Costs vary by size, excavation depth, access and finish. As a guide in SE5, gravel driveways often start around £70–£120 per m², tarmac typically £90–£140 per m², block paving £120–£200 per m², and resin-bound £130–£220 per m². Concrete can range from £110–£190 per m² depending on finish. Drainage channels, steps and dropped kerbs are usually priced separately.
Most driveway installations take 3–7 working days, depending on area, excavation requirements and the surface chosen. A straightforward tarmac or gravel driveway can be quicker, while block paving and resin systems may take longer due to base preparation, edging and curing times. Access restrictions, skip permits, drainage works and bad weather can extend the programme. We provide a realistic schedule before starting and keep you updated daily.
Many driveway projects are permitted development, but rules often apply to front garden surfacing and surface-water management. In Southwark, using permeable materials or directing runoff to a suitable soakaway is usually required, rather than draining onto the public highway. Dropped kerbs always need council approval and an authorised contractor process. We check the requirements for your address, advise on compliant drainage, and help you follow the correct steps.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for new driveway installations, covering issues such as sub-base failure, poor compaction, and installation defects that cause movement or premature cracking (subject to normal use). Materials may also carry manufacturer guarantees, depending on the product selected. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from utility works, vehicle overloading, or extreme ground movement beyond our control. We explain what’s covered in writing before work begins.
Block paving remains a favourite for Victorian terraces, with charcoal borders, brindle tones and herringbone patterns. Resin-bound driveways suit modern apartments and busy households thanks to a smooth, low-maintenance finish in warm aggregates. Tarmac is practical for larger areas, while gravel offers a classic look with stabilisation grids. We’ll help you choose edging, steps, lighting allowances and drainage details, then provide a layout that fits your frontage and parking needs.
