Knightsbridge properties deserve a driveway that looks immaculate and performs year-round. Fine Landscaping delivers tailored surfaces that complement the streets around Harrods and the broad approaches to Hyde Park. From clean, contemporary resin bound to traditional block paving, we build entrances that elevate the whole frontage. We also integrate drainage solutions to keep water away from thresholds and basements.
Across SW1, SW3 and SW7 we frequently work on grand mansion blocks, period townhouses and ultra-luxury apartments with managed frontages. These homes often require discreet workmanship, tidy logistics and finishes that suit heritage façades and high-value landscaping. Whether you’re upgrading a Belgravia mews access or improving parking for a South Kensington residence, we match materials, edging and levels precisely. The result is a driveway that sits naturally with the architecture rather than fighting it.
Our process starts with a site survey, level checks and a clear recommendation on the best surface and sub-base. We excavate properly, install stable foundations, and finish with accurate falls and channel drainage where needed. Every project is scheduled to minimise disruption, with reliable communication and careful protection of surrounding stonework and planting. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent options and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Driveway installation knightsbridge area projects often involve tight access, controlled parking and strict noise/time expectations. We plan deliveries, waste removal and on-street working to suit the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea/City of Westminster requirements. Many frontages have shallow thresholds and basement areas, so we pay close attention to falls and drainage. We also work carefully around railings, steps and mature planting common to Knightsbridge streets.

Costs vary by material, access and groundwork depth. As a guide, gravel driveways often start around £70–£120 per m², tarmac typically £90–£150 per m², and block paving commonly £120–£220 per m². Resin bound is usually £130–£250 per m², while natural stone can be £180–£350+ per m². Excavation, drainage and edgings can affect totals significantly.
Most driveways take 3–10 working days, depending on size, surface choice and the amount of excavation required. A small resin bound or tarmac driveway can be completed faster once the base is prepared, while block paving and natural stone take longer due to laying and detailing. Access restrictions, skip permits, weather and drainage works can extend the programme. We provide a clear schedule before starting.
Many driveway upgrades are permitted development, but rules can apply to drainage, listed buildings and conservation areas common around Knightsbridge. If you’re creating a new hardstanding, you may need permeable surfacing or suitable drainage to comply with SUDS guidance. Dropped kerbs always require council approval and a licensed contractor. We check constraints, advise on compliant materials, and help you plan the right approach.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship, covering issues such as sub-base failure, sinking caused by installation defects, and problems with edges or levels. Material warranties vary by product and manufacturer, and we’ll explain what applies to your chosen surface. Correct maintenance also matters, particularly for jointing sand, sealants and cleaning. You’ll receive care guidance to keep your driveway looking sharp for years.
Popular choices include resin bound for a sleek, permeable finish, block paving for classic patterns and borders, and natural stone for a high-end, timeless look. Tarmac and concrete can be refined with edging, setts or contrasting trims, while gravel suits mews-style access when properly stabilised. We help you choose colours, laying patterns, kerbs and drainage details to complement your façade and meet practical parking needs.
