Our team excavates properly, installs a compacted sub-base, and finishes with accurate falls to move water away from buildings. We keep disruption low, protect lawns and planting, and leave the site tidy each day. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, transparent communication and a 10-year warranty on workmanship.
In the garden paths in London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, we often encounter clay-heavy ground and mature tree roots that affect levels and drainage. We allow for careful excavation, root-friendly detailing where appropriate, and falls that reduce standing water after heavy rain. Parking and access can be tight in streets near St Margarets and Richmond, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. Our designs suit everything from compact front gardens to longer side returns.

Costs vary by material, access and groundwork. As a guide in Twickenham, gravel paths often start around £80–£140 per m², block paving and brick around £120–£200 per m², and natural stone typically £160–£280+ per m². Resin bound is commonly £140–£240 per m² depending on base requirements. Steps, curves, edging and lighting will increase the overall cost.
Most garden path installations take 2–5 days, depending on length, width and the surface chosen. Gravel and stepping stones can be quicker, while natural stone, brickwork and resin bound usually take longer due to base preparation and curing times. Timeframes also depend on access (side returns), waste removal, and whether we’re adding drainage, steps or lighting. We’ll confirm a schedule before work begins.
Garden paths are usually permitted development, so planning permission is rarely needed. However, rules can apply if your property is listed, within a conservation area, or if you’re altering levels significantly near boundaries. Drainage is also important—using permeable options like gravel or resin bound can help manage surface water. We’ll flag any potential constraints during the survey and can advise on the best compliant approach.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our garden path installations, covering issues such as settlement caused by inadequate base preparation, loose edging, and jointing failures under normal use. Materials are covered by their manufacturer warranties where applicable (for example, certain resin systems or lighting components). The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or movement caused by major groundworks by others after completion.
