From Queensway to the streets beside Kensington Gardens, Bayswater homeowners want driveways that look smart and work hard. Fine Landscaping designs and builds premium entrances that improve parking, kerb appeal and day-to-day access. Whether you need a discreet resin bound finish or classic block paving, we match the style of your frontage. We also plan drainage properly to protect your home and the pavement.
The Bayswater area is known for stucco townhouses, mansion conversions and period flats, often with compact front gardens and shared access points. That means careful levels, neat detailing and a finish that complements traditional brickwork and railings. We regularly complete driveway installation Bayswater area projects where space is tight and appearance matters. Our designs balance turning space, bin storage and pedestrian routes without making the frontage feel overbuilt.
We start with a site survey, discuss materials, then provide a clear written quotation and programme. Our team handles excavation, sub-base, edging, laying and final compaction, with drainage solutions built in from day one. Homeowners choose us for tidy working practices, reliable communication and consistent workmanship. You’ll also get aftercare advice and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Working in the City of Westminster often involves controlled parking, limited loading space and careful neighbour consideration. Bayswater streets can have tight access and varied ground build-ups, so we check levels, falls and existing services before digging. We design driveways to manage runoff responsibly and to meet practical day-to-day needs. If a dropped kerb is needed, we’ll guide you through the process and specifications.

Costs vary by size, access and specification, but as a guide: gravel is often £60–£110 per m², tarmac £80–£140 per m², block paving £110–£200 per m², and resin bound typically £120–£220 per m². Natural stone can be £180–£350+ per m². Drainage, edging, steps and waste removal can affect totals, especially on tight Bayswater sites.
Most driveways take around 3–7 working days, depending on area, material and the amount of excavation required. Resin bound and block paving usually need careful base preparation and curing/settling time, while tarmac can be quicker once the base is ready. Timescales can extend if we’re adding drainage channels, adjusting levels near the property, or coordinating access and parking restrictions in W2.
Many front garden driveways are permitted development, but rules can apply to drainage, hardstanding materials and changes to access. In particular, non-permeable surfaces over certain areas may require planning unless water drains to a permeable area within your boundary. Dropped kerbs are managed through the council and must meet their standards. We’ll advise what’s likely to apply and help you check before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our driveway installation workmanship, covering issues such as sinking caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, loose edging, and installation-related defects. Materials are covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable, and we’ll explain these at quotation stage. The warranty assumes normal domestic use and appropriate maintenance, such as keeping drainage points clear and avoiding heavy vehicles if the driveway isn’t specified for them.
In Bayswater, resin bound is popular for a clean, contemporary finish that can be permeable, while block paving suits period façades and allows attractive borders and patterns. Tarmac works well for straightforward, durable parking areas, and natural stone creates a high-end look for townhouse frontages. We’ll help you choose colours, edging, steps and lighting details, and we’ll confirm the best drainage approach for your layout.
