From quick routes to the shed to a statement walkway to the front door, we build paths that feel right for Peckham gardens. We’re often working around SE15, with projects near Peckham Rye Park and the lively Queen’s Road corridor. Expect neat lines, solid sub-bases and finishes that stay smart through London weather. If you want a curved path, stepping-stone trail or a fully lit approach, we’ll design it around how you use the space.
Peckham’s mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and converted warehouses calls for paths that balance character with durability. Narrow side returns and shared access points are common, so we plan materials and deliveries carefully. For period front gardens, brick or natural stone can echo original details; for contemporary courtyards, resin bound gives a clean, modern look. We also match edging and levels to existing paving, steps and thresholds for a seamless finish.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage and the best route, then provide a clear written quote and schedule. Our team installs proper foundations, compacts in layers and finishes with tidy joints, stable edging and optional low-glare lighting. You’ll get practical advice on slip resistance, maintenance and planting edges so the path stays looking sharp. Local homeowners choose us for reliable timings, respectful workmanship and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
In the London Borough of Southwark, gardens often have mixed ground and tight access, especially around Nunhead and Camberwell. We adapt with compact machinery, staged deliveries and considerate parking plans. Where drainage is a concern, we recommend permeable options such as resin bound or gravel with stabilisation grids. We also design around boundary walls, basement areas and existing steps common to SE15 homes.

Costs depend on material, ground preparation, access and drainage. As a guide, gravel paths typically start around £70–£120 per m², block paving around £120–£200 per m², and natural stone around £160–£280 per m². Resin bound is often £140–£220 per m². Curves, edging, steps and lighting will add to the total, so we price after a site survey.
Most garden paths take 1–3 days from excavation to completion, depending on length, width and material. Resin bound and block paving usually need careful base preparation and curing time, while gravel can be quicker if levels are straightforward. Curved paths, steps, drainage channels and lighting add time. Access constraints common in SE15 can also affect delivery and removal, which we plan into the schedule.
In most cases, a garden path within your property is permitted development and won’t need planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, affecting drainage onto the public highway, or working on a listed building or within a conservation area. We’ll advise on permeable surfacing options and good drainage practice, and we can help you check any Southwark-specific requirements before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering workmanship and installation-related issues such as sinking caused by inadequate base preparation or edging failure. It’s backed by our documented build method, including correct sub-base depth, compaction and appropriate jointing for the chosen surface. Normal wear, accidental damage and problems caused by third-party alterations aren’t included. We’ll also explain maintenance steps to help your path stay looking its best.
