From Chiswick High Road to the quieter streets near Chiswick House, a well-built path makes a garden easier to use year-round. We create routes that guide you from gate to front door, patio to lawn, or shed to side return without muddy shortcuts. Choose a straight run for a formal look or curved paths that soften planting beds. Finishes range from natural stone and block paving to gravel, stepping stones and resin bound surfaces.
Chiswick’s Georgian houses, Victorian villas and Edwardian family homes often have narrow side access and established planting that needs protecting. We’re used to working around original brick walls, basement lightwells and mature trees, keeping levels neat at thresholds and steps. For W4 gardens, we design paths that complement period detailing while improving drainage and slip resistance. If you’re close to Gunnersbury, Kew or Acton, we can match materials to local styles and boundary treatments.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, discuss desire lines and agree the best surface for foot traffic, pets and prams. Every build includes proper excavation, a compacted sub-base, tidy edging and falls set for drainage. We keep the site organised, protect lawns and paving, and provide clear updates from start to finish. Homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for reliable scheduling, high-end finishes and a 10-year warranty on workmanship.
Many gardens in the London Borough of Hounslow have mixed ground conditions and mature roots, so we plan excavations carefully and adjust sub-base depth to suit. Chiswick streets can have restricted parking and tight side passages, so we schedule deliveries and remove spoil efficiently. Where permeability matters, we recommend resin bound or gravel to help manage surface water. Our detailing is designed to sit neatly against older brickwork and heritage-style boundaries.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary by width, groundworks and the finish you choose. As a guide, gravel paths often start from £80–£140 per m², block paving and brick from £120–£220 per m², and natural stone from £160–£320 per m². Resin bound is typically £140–£260 per m². Steps, lighting, complex curves and difficult access in W4 can increase the overall budget.
Most garden paths take 2–5 working days, depending on length, excavation depth and the number of curves, steps or landings. Resin bound and natural stone may need extra time for base preparation and curing. Access constraints, spoil removal, and weather can also affect the schedule. After a site visit, we provide a realistic programme so you know when the garden will be fully usable again.
Garden paths are usually permitted development, but rules can apply if you’re changing levels significantly, altering drainage, or working near listed buildings or conservation areas. Permeable surfaces and correct run-off are important, especially if hardstanding is being added. We’ll advise on suitable permeable options and check any relevant constraints for your property in Chiswick. If approvals are needed, we can help you prepare the details.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our garden path installations, covering issues such as sub-base failure, movement caused by poor compaction, and jointing defects. Materials are also covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable (for example, resin systems or lighting components). The warranty assumes normal use and proper care, and we’ll explain maintenance for your chosen surface so it stays looking sharp.
We design paths in natural stone (including sawn or riven finishes), block paving, brick, gravel, stepping stones and resin bound surfacing. Layout options include straight runs, curved paths, contrasting borders, and discreet lighting for evening safety. We’ll help you choose colours and textures that suit period homes and planting schemes, and we’ll recommend practical details such as edging, anti-slip finishes and drainage-friendly construction.
