Uneven blocks, potholes and sinking edges can quickly spoil a driveway—especially around busy routes near London Bridge and Tower Bridge. Fine Landscaping delivers targeted repairs that blend in with your existing surface and improve day-to-day access. We handle everything from re-sanding and repointing to re-sealing and drainage fixes. If you’re in SE1 or SE16, we can usually reach you in around 30 minutes.
Bermondsey’s mix of converted warehouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments means driveways and forecourts vary widely in size, access and construction. We regularly repair block paving courtyards off Bermondsey Street as well as tarmac parking areas near Surrey Quays. Older sub-bases can settle over time, while newer developments may suffer from poor falls that leave standing water. Our approach is matched to the property type and how you actually use the space.
We start with a site inspection, checking levels, edge restraints, drainage routes and any underlying movement. Repairs are then completed with compatible materials—replacing damaged blocks, patching tarmac, re-levelling dips, and finishing with re-sanding or sealing where appropriate. Work is kept tidy, with clear start dates and minimal disruption to neighbours. Homeowners choose us for straightforward advice, durable workmanship and a 10-year warranty on qualifying repairs.
Across the London Borough of Southwark, Bermondsey streets often mean tight access, controlled parking and limited loading space, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Ground levels can vary between older terraces and warehouse conversions, which affects falls and drainage performance. We also see heavy footfall and vehicle turning on smaller forecourts near Maltby Street Market, so we reinforce edges and high-wear zones. If needed, we’ll advise on permeable solutions to support compliant drainage.

Costs depend on the surface type and how far the damage extends below the top layer. As a guide, small block paving repairs and re-sanding often start from £250–£600, while larger lifted-and-relayed areas can be £800–£2,000+. Tarmac patching and pothole repairs commonly fall around £300–£1,500 depending on depth and access. Drainage fixes or channel installations may add £400–£1,800.
Many driveway repairs are completed in a day, such as replacing a small section of block paving, re-sanding, or patching a few potholes. Larger areas that need lifting, sub-base rebuilding, repointing and re-sealing typically take 2–4 days. Timescales depend on access in SE1/SE16, the need for drainage adjustments, curing time for tarmac, and weather—heavy rain can delay sealing and jointing work.
Most like-for-like driveway repairs are classed as permitted development and won’t need planning permission. Rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, adding new drainage connections, or creating a new impermeable surface where water would run to the highway. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, extra considerations may apply. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and help you choose compliant, permeable options where needed.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying driveway repair works, covering workmanship and installation-related defects such as failed joints, poor compaction, or movement caused by inadequate base preparation. It doesn’t cover damage from accidents, oil/chemical spills, or issues caused by underlying utilities or tree roots outside the repaired area. We’ll explain exactly what’s covered for your project and provide aftercare guidance for sealing and maintenance.
We aim to match your existing driveway, but there are upgrade options if you want a refreshed look. For block paving, we can replace damaged blocks, repoint edges, and finish with kiln-dried sand or a resin-based jointing compound, then re-seal for colour enhancement. For tarmac, we can patch and blend, or advise on overlay where appropriate. We’ll recommend finishes based on wear, drainage needs and the style of your property.
