From Queen’s Road to Nunhead, homeowners want driveways that look sharp and work hard every day. We design and build surfaces that complement Peckham’s streetscape, with options ranging from resin bound to classic block paving. If you’re near Peckham Rye Park or commuting via SE15 routes, we’ll plan access and deliveries to minimise disruption. The result is a driveway that improves parking, drainage and first impressions.
The Peckham area includes Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and converted warehouse apartments, each with different frontage sizes and levels. We regularly tackle narrow entrances, shared crossovers and sloping approaches where water management matters. Our driveway installation Peckham area service is tailored to the property, not a one-size template. We’ll recommend edging, steps or retaining details where needed to keep everything neat and safe.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear written specification, then prepare the sub-base to the correct depth for long-term stability. Drainage is designed in from day one, using permeable surfaces or channel drains where appropriate. You’ll get a tidy, well-managed installation with transparent timescales and regular updates. Local homeowners trust us because we deliver consistent workmanship and stand behind it with a 10-year warranty.
Across the London Borough of Southwark, front gardens can be tight and access is often restricted, especially near busy routes around Camberwell and SE15. We plan spoil removal, deliveries and parking so the job runs smoothly. Ground conditions and existing made-up ground vary, so we adjust excavation depths and compaction to suit. Where surface water is a concern, we prioritise permeable finishes and compliant drainage layouts.

Costs vary with size, excavation depth, access and the finish you choose. As a guide in SE15, gravel can start around £70–£110 per m², tarmac typically £90–£140 per m², block paving £120–£200 per m², and resin bound often £130–£220 per m². Natural stone and complex edging or steps can be higher. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit.
Most driveways take 3–7 working days from excavation to completion, depending on size and complexity. A small, straightforward tarmac or gravel driveway may be quicker, while block paving, natural stone detailing, or significant level changes can extend the programme to 1–2 weeks. Weather, access for machinery, and curing times (especially for concrete) also affect the schedule. We confirm timings before work starts.
Many driveway projects are permitted development, but rules can apply around surface water drainage and changes to access. If you’re creating a new vehicle crossover, a dropped kerb usually needs approval through the council and must be installed by an approved contractor. We’ll advise on permeable surfacing or drainage to meet requirements and flag any constraints for listed buildings or conservation areas before you commit.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our driveway installations, covering issues such as sub-base failure, poor compaction-related sinking, and installation defects. Materials may also carry manufacturer warranties, depending on the product chosen (for example, resin systems or paving). The warranty assumes normal domestic use and proper care, and it excludes damage from heavy commercial vehicles or ground movement outside our control. Warranty details are supplied in writing.
In Peckham, block paving remains popular for Victorian terraces because it suits period character and offers easy repairs. Resin bound is a favourite for a sleek, low-maintenance look and permeability, while tarmac works well for larger areas with clean lines. Gravel can be cost-effective with stabilisation grids, and natural stone gives a premium finish for feature entrances. We help you choose colours, edging, patterns and drainage based on your frontage and parking needs.
