A well-built path makes a garden feel organised, safer underfoot, and easier to enjoy year-round. We design and install paths across SW5, from compact courtyards to garden square layouts. Whether you’re near Earl’s Court tube station or walking distance from Philbeach Gardens, we’ll create routes that look intentional and feel comfortable to use. Expect clean lines, smart drainage, and materials chosen to suit your home.
Earl’s Court homes often include Victorian mansion conversions, period flats and garden square properties where space is valuable and detailing matters. We regularly work with narrow side returns, shared entrances and basement-level gardens, keeping disruption low and access protected. Our designs complement brick façades, iron railings and traditional planting schemes while still feeling contemporary. If you want a softer look, curved paths and stepping-stone layouts can reduce the “hardscape” feel.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels and discuss how you use the garden. You’ll receive a clear specification covering sub-base depth, edging, falls and drainage, plus material samples where helpful. Installation is handled by our in-house team with tidy working practices and careful waste removal. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, crisp finishes, and a 10-year workmanship warranty for peace of mind.
In the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, access and parking can be tight, so we plan deliveries and waste collection carefully. Many SW5 properties have steps, basement areas or shared walkways, so we protect thresholds and manage levels precisely. We also account for London clay and compacted ground by specifying robust sub-bases and drainage where needed. If your property is near Kensington or West Brompton, we’ll tailor the build to suit the setting and footfall.

Costs depend on material, ground preparation and access. As a guide, gravel paths often start around £80–£140 per m², block paving typically £120–£200 per m², and natural stone usually £160–£280+ per m². Resin bound is commonly £140–£240 per m². Steps, curved detailing, edging and lighting will increase the overall budget, especially in SW5 where access can be restricted.
Most garden path installations take 2–5 days, depending on length, excavation depth and the chosen finish. A simple gravel or stepping-stone route can be quicker, while natural stone, brickwork detailing or resin bound systems may take longer due to preparation and curing times. Timescales also change with access constraints, waste removal, and whether we’re adding drainage, edging, or lighting. We confirm a realistic schedule after the site survey.
Garden paths are usually permitted development, especially within rear gardens, but there are exceptions. If you’re altering levels significantly, working near a boundary, or your property is listed or within a conservation area, extra rules may apply. Permeable surfaces can also be important for drainage compliance. We’ll flag any likely constraints during the survey and can help you check requirements with the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea before work starts.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our garden path installations. This covers issues caused by installation faults, such as sinking due to inadequate sub-base preparation, loose edging, or jointing failures where applicable. Materials are also covered by their manufacturers’ warranties, which vary by product (for example, resin systems and paving). The warranty assumes normal use and that drainage and maintenance guidance is followed.
We offer natural stone, block paving, gravel, stepping stones, resin bound and brick paths, with options for straight or curved layouts. For period properties, brick or stone can echo Victorian detailing, while resin bound gives a clean, contemporary finish with excellent permeability. We can add discreet edging, contrasting borders, and low-glare path lighting for safety. We’ll recommend the best option based on your garden size, style, budget and how you use the space.
