If parking is tight near Raynes Park station or you want a neater approach to your home, a well-built driveway makes a noticeable difference. Fine Landscaping designs and installs driveways that look sharp and cope with year-round use. We work across SW20 and nearby Wimbledon, tailoring layouts for cars, bins and pedestrian access. Expect practical advice on surfaces, edging and drainage from the first visit.
Raynes Park has a mix of 1930s semis, Victorian terraces and Edwardian houses, often with sloped front gardens and shared boundaries. We match paving colours and patterns to period brickwork, and we plan levels carefully to avoid awkward steps at the threshold. Whether you’re in West Barnes or closer to Cannon Hill Common, we’ll recommend a build-up that suits the existing ground and your parking needs. Our team is used to working within tight side access and protecting neighbouring properties.
Our process starts with a site survey, setting out, and a written specification so you know exactly what’s included. We excavate properly, install a stable sub-base, and finish with precise levels, edging and falls to move water away from the house. Every job is managed for cleanliness and minimal disruption, with waste removed and the site left tidy. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, workmanship you can inspect, and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
As driveway contractors in London Borough of Merton, we plan around resident parking, school-run traffic and narrow access common in Raynes Park streets. Ground conditions can vary, so we assess levels and soil before specifying sub-base depth and drainage. We also design falls to protect air bricks and thresholds on older properties. If a dropped kerb is needed, we’ll advise on practical requirements and build the driveway to suit.

Costs depend on size, excavation depth, access and the surface you choose. As a guide in SW20, gravel driveways often start around £60–£110 per m², tarmac £80–£140 per m², block paving £110–£180 per m², and resin-bound £120–£200 per m². Concrete is commonly £90–£160 per m². Repairs vary widely, from a few hundred pounds to several thousand for larger areas.
Most driveways take 3–7 working days from excavation to completion, depending on size and complexity. Resin and tarmac can be quicker once the base is prepared, while block paving is more labour-intensive. Extra time may be needed for drainage runs, steps, retaining edges, or restricted access near Prince George's Playing Fields and surrounding streets. Weather, skip permits and curing times (especially for concrete) can also affect the schedule.
In many cases, a new or replaced driveway is permitted development, but rules can apply to surface water drainage and materials. If you’re creating a new hardstanding over a certain size, you’ll usually need permeable surfacing or drainage to a soakaway rather than the public sewer. Dropped kerbs are separately controlled and require approval. We’ll advise on compliance and design the driveway to meet current requirements.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for new driveway installations, covering issues such as sub-base failure, sinking caused by poor preparation, and installation defects. Materials may also carry manufacturer guarantees, depending on the product chosen. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, oil staining, or movement caused by third-party works or tree roots beyond our control. We’ll explain what’s covered in writing before work starts.
We install block paving (including herringbone patterns), resin-bound stone in a range of aggregates, tarmac with neat edging, gravel with stabilisation grids, and brushed or patterned concrete. We can add contrasting borders, recessed drainage channels, lighting ducts and tidy entrance aprons. During the survey, we’ll discuss parking layout, turning space and finishes that suit your home’s style. We also advise on permeability and maintenance for each option.
