Pimlico streets demand driveways that look refined and perform in all weathers. We design and build premium entrances that suit the area’s garden squares and riverside setting, from Dolphin Square to the routes around Tate Britain. Whether you need a new parking bay or a full front-garden transformation, we focus on neat lines, long-lasting sub-bases and compliant drainage. Every installation is planned to minimise disruption on busy SW1 roads.
Our team regularly delivers driveway installation Pimlico area projects for Regency townhouses, mansion blocks and period conversions. These properties often have limited frontages, shared access points and strict visual expectations, so detailing matters. We can match traditional façades with natural stone or sympathetic block paving, or create a crisp contemporary finish with resin bound surfacing. If your access is tight near Pimlico tube station or Victoria, we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear written specification, then excavate to the correct depth and build a robust sub-base. Surface water is managed with permeable options or channel drains connected appropriately, helping protect your home and the pavement. You’ll get tidy workmanship, clear timelines and a dedicated point of contact throughout. Local homeowners choose us for consistent quality, transparent communication and a finish that stays looking sharp.
Driveway installation in City of Westminster often involves tight access, resident parking controls and careful waste logistics. Pimlico’s mix of mansion blocks and townhouses can mean shallow front gardens, basement lightwells and sensitive thresholds, so levels and drainage are planned precisely. We also consider footway falls and existing services before excavation. Where a dropped kerb is needed, we help you navigate the correct approvals and construction standards.

Costs vary by material, excavation depth, access and drainage requirements. As a guide, gravel installations often start around £70–£120 per m², tarmac typically £90–£160 per m², block paving £120–£220 per m², and resin bound £140–£260 per m². Natural stone and premium concrete can be higher. In SW1, restricted access and waste removal can also affect the overall budget.
Most driveways take 3–7 working days, depending on size, surface choice and whether drainage or a dropped kerb is included. Resin bound and block paving usually need careful base preparation and curing time, while tarmac can be quicker once the sub-base is ready. Timelines can extend with restricted access, parked cars, service covers that need adjustment, or wet weather affecting groundworks and compaction.
Many driveway works are permitted development, especially when using permeable surfacing or directing water to a suitable permeable area within your boundary. However, the City of Westminster may have additional considerations for conservation areas, listed buildings, and changes that affect the pavement or a dropped kerb. We check the rules for your address, advise on compliant drainage, and can help you prepare the right information before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our driveway installations, covering issues arising from installation such as sub-base failure, poor compaction, or drainage defects (subject to normal use and maintenance). Manufacturer warranties may also apply to specific materials where relevant. We’ll explain what’s covered in writing, provide care guidance for your chosen surface, and remain available if you ever need an inspection or remedial advice.
Popular options include block paving in traditional or contemporary patterns, resin bound for a smooth permeable finish, tarmac for clean practicality, and natural stone for a high-end period look. We also install gravel and concrete, with edging details to suit your façade. During design, we’ll advise on colour, borders, steps, lighting allowances and drainage solutions, ensuring the layout works with parking needs and SW1 access constraints.
