Penge has a strong mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions, often with compact front gardens and shared access points. We design solutions that maximise parking without overwhelming the property’s character. If your entrance sits on a slope or you’re dealing with awkward levels, we can regrade and build a stable sub-base before surfacing. Many clients in the driveways Penge area also ask for discreet edging and lighting-ready borders.
Our process starts with a site visit, clear recommendations and a written quote based on your chosen finish. We excavate to the right depth, install a solid sub-base, and add drainage where needed so water doesn’t pool near the house. Work is scheduled to minimise disruption, with daily tidy-ups and careful protection of paths and thresholds. Local homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, straightforward communication and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Working across the London Borough of Bromley, we’re used to tight frontages, on-street parking and short working windows. Near Penge East station and surrounding roads, access can be limited, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Ground conditions vary, so we adjust excavation depth and sub-base specification to suit. We also design permeable options where surface water management is a priority.

Most projects in SE20 fall within £50–£120 per square metre, depending on the material and groundwork required. Gravel is often at the lower end, while resin and block paving sit higher due to materials and labour. Typical total costs are around £2,000–£6,000 for many Penge frontages, but size, drainage needs, edging, and removal of existing surfaces can move the budget up or down.
A standard driveway installation usually takes 2–5 days. Timescales depend on the size of the area, how much excavation is needed, and whether drainage channels or soakaways are required. Weather can affect curing times for concrete and resin, and access constraints can slow removals and deliveries. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule before starting and keep you updated as the work progresses.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but rules can apply around surface water drainage, dropped kerbs, and certain materials. Permeable surfaces or suitable drainage are often needed to manage runoff. If your property is a conversion or sits in an area with added restrictions, requirements may differ. We’ll advise on the likely permissions and help you check any Bromley-specific guidance before work begins.
Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on workmanship for new driveway installations, covering issues such as sinking caused by inadequate sub-base preparation or installation defects. The warranty is dependent on normal domestic use and correct aftercare, and it doesn’t cover accidental damage or problems caused by third-party alterations. We’ll explain what’s included for your chosen surface and provide aftercare guidance to protect the finish.
We install tarmac driveways for a clean, durable finish, block paved driveways for pattern and kerb appeal, and resin driveways for a smooth, modern look. Concrete and gravel are also popular where budgets or styles differ, and we offer driveway repairs to restore worn areas. We’ll help you choose colours, edging, and layout options based on your parking needs, drainage requirements, and the look of your home.
