Then we prepare a proper sub-base, install edging, and finish with careful compaction and pointing so the path stays stable.

In the London Borough of Southwark, many gardens have mixed ground and mature tree roots, so we plan excavations carefully and adjust the build-up to keep levels correct. Access can be tight on terrace streets, and parking restrictions are common, so we organise deliveries and waste removal to reduce inconvenience. We also factor in drainage so water runs to planting beds, not towards the house. This is why clients choose our garden paths in London Borough of Southwark for dependable, practical results.

Costs depend on material, ground preparation and access. As a guide, gravel paths often start around £70–£120 per m², block paving and brick are typically £120–£180 per m², and natural stone is commonly £160–£260+ per m². Resin bound paths usually fall around £140–£220 per m². Curves, steps, drainage and lighting will affect the overall budget.
Most garden paths take 2–5 days from excavation to finish, depending on length, width and chosen surface. A small stepping-stone route may be completed in a day or two, while a larger natural stone or block paved path with edging can take closer to a week. Timescales can change due to poor ground, drainage upgrades, curing time for resin, or restricted access for materials and waste.
In most cases, a garden path is permitted development and won’t need planning permission. The main considerations are drainage and surface water: using permeable materials (such as gravel or resin bound) or directing runoff to borders helps meet requirements. If your property is listed, in a conservation area, or you’re altering levels near boundaries, extra rules may apply. We’ll advise and check what’s relevant before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our garden path installations, covering workmanship and the structural build-up when the path is used as intended. This includes sub-base preparation, edging stability and installation standards that prevent common issues like movement, sinking and loose units. Materials are also covered by their manufacturer warranties where applicable. We’ll explain care and maintenance so your finish stays looking sharp for longer.
We install natural stone, block paving, gravel, stepping stones, resin bound and brick paths, with options for straight or curved routes. For period homes, brick and riven stone often suit best; for a cleaner look, resin bound or smooth paving works well. We can add edging, contrasting borders and discreet path lighting. During the survey we’ll show samples, discuss slip resistance and drainage, and recommend a layout that fits your garden.
