From Brixton Market to Windrush Square, properties in SW2 and SW9 often need practical parking without losing character. Fine Landscaping installs premium driveways that suit everything from compact front gardens to wider plots. We build tarmac, resin, block paved, gravel and concrete driveways, plus tidy repairs where the base is still sound. Expect a clean, well-managed job with a finish that lifts the frontage.
The driveways Brixton area homeowners request most often are those that complement Victorian terraces and smart Georgian façades, while still coping with daily vehicle use. We also work on modern developments around Stockwell and Brixton Hill where a sleek, low-maintenance surface is preferred. Levels, thresholds and drainage details are handled carefully to protect your entrance and prevent standing water. Every design is tailored to the available space and how you actually use it.
We start with a site visit to measure, check falls and inspect the existing sub-base. You’ll receive clear options on materials, edging and drainage, along with a realistic programme (typically 2–5 days). Our team keeps access organised and the site tidy, with waste removed promptly. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, straightforward communication and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Working across driveways in London Borough of Lambeth means planning around controlled parking, narrow access and busy roads. In Brixton and nearby Tulse Hill and Herne Hill, we often manage tight front gardens, shared boundaries and level changes at the threshold. We design falls and drainage to suit local conditions and help you keep surfaces compliant with permeable requirements where needed. Deliveries and waste removal are scheduled to minimise disruption.

In Brixton, driveway installations typically range from £50–£120 per square metre, depending on the surface and the groundwork required. Many homeowners spend around £2,000–£6,000 for a standard front driveway, with block paving and resin often at the higher end due to materials and detailing. Costs can rise if excavation is deeper, drainage channels are needed, or access is restricted in SW2/SW9 streets.
Most driveway projects take 2–5 days from excavation to final finish, depending on size and the chosen material. Tarmac can be quicker, while block paving and resin may take longer due to base preparation and curing times. Timescales are affected by access for machinery, the need for drainage, and whether we’re removing an old surface. We’ll confirm a schedule after the site survey.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but rules can apply—especially around drainage and impermeable surfaces to the front of a property. In Lambeth, you may need to ensure water drains to a permeable area or suitable soakaway rather than the highway. If your home is in a conservation area or you’re altering a dropped kerb, extra permissions may be required. We’ll advise and check what applies before work starts.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on workmanship for new driveway installations, covering issues linked to our construction such as sub-base failure, movement from poor compaction, or edging problems. Materials may also carry manufacturer guarantees depending on the product selected. The warranty assumes normal domestic use and appropriate maintenance, and we’ll explain care requirements for your chosen surface at handover.
We install tarmac, concrete, gravel, block paving and resin driveways, plus targeted repairs to existing surfaces. Block paving is popular for Victorian terraces thanks to colour choices and patterns, while resin suits modern frontages with a smooth, clean look. Gravel can be a cost-effective option where permeability is a priority. We’ll help you choose edging, borders and drainage details to match your property and parking needs.
