From Bermondsey Street to London Bridge, homeowners want driveways that look sharp and cope with daily use. Fine Landscaping designs and installs premium driveways that suit the mix of modern builds and character homes across SE1 and SE16. Whether you’re improving access, adding parking, or refreshing tired surfacing, we tailor the layout to your space and vehicle needs. Expect clean lines, robust sub-bases and finishes that elevate your property.
Bermondsey’s converted warehouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments often come with tight frontages, shared access routes or awkward levels. We regularly work around limited storage, controlled parking and narrow entrances near Tower Bridge and Rotherhithe. Our team plans falls, edging and thresholds carefully so doors, bins and bikes still work smoothly. The result is a driveway that feels intentional, not squeezed in.
We start with a site survey, discuss materials and drainage, then provide a clear written quotation and programme. Groundworks are completed to spec: excavation, Type 1 sub-base, compaction, edging and the chosen surface, with tidy handover. We prioritise SUDS-compliant solutions where needed and can arrange dropped kerbs through the correct channels. Local homeowners trust us for punctual crews, neat workmanship and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Driveway installation in London Borough of Southwark often needs careful drainage planning due to hardstanding rules and runoff control. In Bermondsey, access can be restricted by permit parking, delivery bays and narrow streets, so we schedule deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for mixed ground conditions and existing services common around older terraces and warehouse conversions. Our approach keeps the job compliant, practical and tidy.

Costs in Bermondsey vary by size, excavation depth, access, and the surface you choose. As a guide, gravel is often £60–£110 per m², tarmac £90–£150 per m², block paving £120–£220 per m², and resin bound £130–£230 per m². Natural stone and complex drainage can increase budgets. We survey your SE1/SE16 property and provide an itemised quote.
Most driveway projects take around 3–7 working days, depending on area, ground conditions and the chosen finish. Block paving and natural stone can take longer due to edging, cuts and detailing, while tarmac can be quicker once the base is prepared. Resin bound needs suitable weather and curing time. Restricted access and skip permits in Bermondsey can also affect scheduling, which we plan for upfront.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but rules can apply around drainage, levels, and changes to access. If you’re creating a new hardstanding to the front, you may need a permeable surface or compliant drainage to avoid runoff to the highway. Dropped kerbs require approval and must be installed to the council’s requirements. We advise on compliance and help manage applications where needed.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our driveway installations, covering issues such as sinking caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, edging failures, and installation-related defects. Materials may also carry manufacturer warranties, depending on the product selected. The warranty assumes normal domestic use and that drainage is kept clear of debris. We’ll explain what’s covered in writing before work starts.
We install block paving (including herringbone patterns), resin bound for a smooth, modern look, tarmac for durability, gravel for a classic finish, concrete for clean simplicity, and natural stone for premium character. We can also add contrasting borders, steps, lighting ducts and robust edging. During the survey we’ll recommend options that suit your property style, parking needs, and drainage requirements for the Bermondsey area.
