Every path is laid with careful falls for drainage, clean cuts around borders, and a finish that’s easy to maintain.

Across the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, we often encounter clay-heavy soils and gardens with subtle slopes, so we build in stable sub-bases and correct falls. Parking and access can be tight around Raynes Park and Motspur Park, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to keep things smooth. We also match materials to local property styles, from brick edging for 1930s semis to sleek resin bound finishes for newer builds. If council guidance affects drainage or front garden surfacing, we’ll flag it early.

Most garden path projects take 2–5 days, depending on length, material and the amount of excavation needed. A simple gravel or stepping-stone route can be quicker, while natural stone, brick detailing or curved layouts take longer. Timescales also depend on access (common with side paths), weather, and whether we’re adding drainage, steps or lighting. We’ll confirm a programme before work begins.
