If you’re adding off-street parking or improving access, a properly installed dropped kerb is essential. We deliver compliant pavement crossovers across SW16, including routes near Norbury station and along Norbury High Street. From the first site visit to the final reinstatement, we keep disruption low and the finish sharp. You’ll get a crossover that looks right, drains correctly and meets council standards.
Norbury’s mix of Edwardian houses, 1930s semis and Victorian conversions often comes with short front gardens and tight access. That means levels, thresholds and drainage need careful planning before any kerb is lowered. We regularly work in the dropped kerbs Norbury area, including Streatham Vale and Thornton Heath, where pavement widths and street parking can affect logistics. Our approach suits both single-car driveways and wider crossovers for multi-car frontages.
We manage the full process: survey, specification, council paperwork, installation and reinstatement. Every job is completed to current compliance requirements, with clear communication on timings and access. Our crews protect existing paving, keep the site orderly, and leave the footway safe and clean at the end of each day. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, reliable scheduling and a finish that stands up to daily use.
Working in the London Borough of Croydon means following strict crossover rules and inspection requirements. Around Pollards Hill and Norbury Park, we often plan for street parking constraints, busier footways and variable verge details. We check levels carefully to avoid water running onto the highway or pooling on the drive. Materials and reinstatement are matched to the existing footway so the finished crossover blends in and stays compliant.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
In Norbury, dropped kerbs typically fall between £800 and £2,500 depending on width, footway construction, drainage needs and council requirements. Most homeowners pay around £1,200–£1,800 for a standard single-vehicle crossover with reinstatement. Costs can rise if the pavement needs deeper excavation, if there are services to protect, or if extra works are needed to meet compliance.
Most dropped kerb installations take 1–2 days on site once approvals are in place. The exact timescale depends on the crossover width, the condition of the pavement, and whether additional drainage or edging is required. Access and parking on busier roads near Norbury High Street can also affect set-up and deliveries. We confirm a realistic programme after the survey and keep you updated throughout.
Yes—lowering the kerb and creating a pavement crossover is controlled by the council, and you’ll usually need an approved application and permit before work starts. Many driveway and garden changes can be permitted development, but the highway element is different and must meet council standards. We handle the application process, provide the required details, and ensure the installation is completed to the correct specification and compliance checks.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our dropped kerb installations, covering issues such as settlement caused by poor compaction, defective reinstatement, or edge failures linked to installation. It’s designed to give peace of mind for everyday vehicle use. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from heavy vehicles beyond design limits, third-party works, or underlying issues such as previously unknown service defects.
Options depend on council specification, but we can advise on crossover width, kerb types and the reinstatement finish to suit your frontage. Common choices include standard dropped kerbs with matching bullnose kerbs, reinforced edges for frequent use, and tidy transitions into block paving or resin driveways. We also plan practical details such as levels, drainage and thresholds so the crossover looks consistent and performs well year-round.
