Putney's mix of architectural styles demands thoughtful driveway solutions. Those narrow Victorian plots require clever design to fit modern cars, while the larger properties towards Putney Heath often need substantial groundwork to manage water runoff. Local planning restrictions mean understanding what's permissible before breaking ground.
Modern permeable surfaces solve SW15's drainage challenges whilst meeting environmental regulations. Resin-bound gravel allows rainwater through naturally, preventing the flooding issues common on sloped drives near Richmond Park. Block paving offers flexibility for awkward shapes, particularly useful for the irregular frontages found throughout older Putney streets. Each material choice affects longevity, maintenance requirements, and crucially, your property's kerb appeal.
Twenty years installing driveways between Barnes Common and Roehampton Vale teaches you which approaches work. Local knowledge matters when navigating Wandsworth's planning requirements and understanding how Putney's clay soil behaves through the seasons.

Typically 5-10 working days from excavation to finished surface. Straightforward replacements often complete within a week, whilst properties requiring extensive groundwork or drainage solutions might extend to a fortnight.
Every driveway carries decade-long protection covering structural integrity, drainage performance, and surface stability. This comprehensive coverage includes annual inspections to catch any settlement issues early, particularly important given SW15's variable ground conditions.
Often yes - many Putney homes benefit from widening narrow drives or adding turning areas. Matching existing materials requires expertise, but extending frequently costs less than complete replacement whilst solving modern parking challenges.
