Fine Landscaping installs and repairs driveways across Croydon, from Addiscombe to South Croydon. If you’re near East Croydon station or popping to the Whitgift Centre, you’ve likely seen the mix of older front gardens and newer forecourts that need smart, practical surfacing. We create driveways that suit daily parking, bins, prams and deliveries. Expect clear communication, tidy working and a finish that complements your home.
Croydon’s streets include Victorian terraces with narrow access, 1930s semis with generous frontages, and modern developments where drainage and neat edging matter. We tailor levels, steps and thresholds so cars don’t scrape and rainwater doesn’t pool. Whether you’re improving a single space in CR2 or reworking a wider frontage in CR0, we design around your property’s layout. Our recommendations balance looks, longevity and maintenance.
We start with a site survey, measure-up and written specification, then prepare the sub-base properly before laying your chosen surface. Every job includes careful falls for drainage, solid edging and a clean handover. You’ll get straightforward timescales, transparent options and workmanship backed by our 10-year warranty. As we’re only around 10 minutes away, we can respond quickly for inspections and aftercare.
In the driveways Croydon area, we often find variable ground and older front gardens that need careful excavation and compaction. Parking and access can be tight around Broad Green and Waddon, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to keep disruption down. We also factor in surface water management, especially where front gardens are being converted to parking. Our approach suits driveways in London Borough of Croydon homes, from terraces to newer builds.

Most driveway projects in Croydon fall between £50–£120 per square metre, depending on the surface and the amount of groundwork required. Typical total spend is around £2,000–£6,000 for a standard front garden parking area. Costs vary with excavation depth, sub-base condition, drainage needs, edging, steps, and whether you’re choosing resin or block paving over gravel or tarmac.
Most installations take 2–5 days, depending on size, access and the chosen material. Preparation usually takes the longest: excavation, waste removal, sub-base installation and compaction. Resin and tarmac can be quicker once the base is ready, while block paving may take longer due to detailed laying and cutting. Weather, curing times and any drainage alterations can also extend the programme slightly.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but rules can apply around surface water drainage, dropped kerbs and conservation considerations. As a general guide, using permeable surfaces or directing runoff to a suitable soakaway helps meet requirements. If you’re changing levels, adding new access, or working near boundaries, extra checks may be needed. We’ll advise on compliant options and help you understand what Croydon Council may require.
Yes. Our driveway installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including issues such as sub-base failure due to poor installation, edge movement, and surface defects linked to our fitting. Materials may also have manufacturer guarantees, depending on the product selected. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from impact, oil/chemical spills, or ground movement outside normal conditions, but we’ll always inspect and recommend the best fix.
