Those narrow side returns typical of SW16's terraced houses present unique opportunities for creative path solutions. Whether you're navigating the slope from Norbury Park or dealing with London clay that shifts with the seasons, properly constructed garden paths transform muddy shortcuts into year-round accessible routes. Local gardens here range from compact courtyards to the more generous plots near Biggin Wood, each requiring thoughtful pathway planning.
Material selection makes all the difference when heavy rainfall meets Norbury's clay-heavy soil. Permeable resin-bound surfaces allow drainage whilst maintaining that crisp, modern aesthetic many homeowners seek. Indian sandstone offers timeless appeal, particularly complementing the red-brick Victorian properties along Green Lane. Proper sub-base preparation prevents the settling and puddles that plague poorly installed paths, ensuring your investment remains level and attractive through countless seasons.
Years spent working across Thornton Heath and Pollards Hill mean understanding exactly how local ground conditions affect longevity. Every path installation considers your specific garden's drainage patterns and existing landscaping, creating cohesive outdoor spaces that feel intentional rather than afterthought.

Basic gravel paths start around £40-60 per square metre, whilst premium natural stone installations typically range £80-120. A typical 15-metre path connecting patio to shed usually falls between £900-1800, depending on materials chosen and ground preparation needed.
Absolutely - from the conservation areas near Norbury station through to newer developments towards Pollards Hill. Regular projects span both postcodes, including the residential streets between London Road and Streatham Common.
Most residential paths complete within 3-5 days, though connecting multiple garden zones or incorporating steps might extend this. Weather permitting, smaller straight runs often finish in just two days.
Each path carries comprehensive 10-year coverage against structural defects, settlement, and material failure. This includes any necessary relevelling or joint repairs, giving complete peace of mind that your investment remains protected.
Curved designs actually maximise smaller spaces brilliantly, creating journey and interest where straight lines might feel restrictive. Sweeping paths make compact gardens appear larger whilst providing practical routes around established plants and features.
