Battersea gardens often need level changes handled properly, whether it’s a raised patio, a basement lightwell, or a path down to the lawn. We design and build steps that look right and feel solid underfoot, from Battersea Park-side plots to homes near Battersea Power Station. Each set is set out for comfortable rise and going, with tidy edges and clean lines. The result is a safer route and a stronger finish to your landscaping.
Our team works across the SW11 and SW8 postcodes, where Victorian terraces, mansion blocks and luxury new builds sit side-by-side. In older properties, we match materials to existing brickwork and boundary walls for a seamless look. For newer developments around Nine Elms, we favour crisp detailing, contemporary stone and discreet step lighting. Whatever the property, we build steps that suit the architecture and daily use.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check drainage and confirm access, then provide a clear written quote and schedule. Steps are built on a proper sub-base with accurate falls, consistent risers and secure edging, so they stay stable through winter. We keep the site tidy, protect nearby paving and planting, and communicate throughout. Homeowners choose us for reliable workmanship, transparent pricing and a 10-year warranty.
We’re used to Battersea access challenges: narrow side returns, shared pathways and controlled parking near Clapham Junction and Battersea Park. Many gardens sit above or below street level, so we factor in retaining edges, drainage and safe transitions. We also consider waste removal logistics and delivery timing to minimise disruption. For garden steps in London Borough of Wandsworth, we build to suit local property styles and practical constraints.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most Garden Steps in Battersea fall between £800 and £3,500, depending on the number of steps, width, and material choice. As a guide, allow around £150–£400 per step for supply and installation. Natural stone and integrated lighting tend to sit at the higher end, while simple sleeper or block steps can be more cost-effective. Groundworks, drainage and access can also affect the final figure.
Typical installation takes 2–4 days for most Battersea gardens, including excavation, sub-base preparation and laying. The exact timescale depends on the number of steps, whether retaining edges are needed, and the chosen finish (for example, brick detailing or stone cutting). Restricted access in mansion blocks or tight side passages can add time for barrowing materials. We confirm a schedule after the site survey and measurements.
In many cases, garden steps are classed as permitted development and don’t require planning permission, especially when they’re within the rear garden and not creating a raised platform beyond typical limits. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, or if the work affects a shared structure or boundary wall. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and advise if you should check with Wandsworth Council before work begins.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for garden steps, covering issues such as movement caused by poor installation, failing joints, or unstable sub-base construction. It’s designed to give homeowners confidence that the steps will remain safe and solid with normal use. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or problems caused by third-party alterations. We also recommend suitable aftercare for your chosen materials.
We install natural stone steps for a premium, timeless look, plus brick steps that complement Victorian terraces and block steps for clean, modern lines. Sleeper steps are popular for softer, landscaped gardens and can be paired with gravel or planting. We can also integrate low-glare step lighting and fit handrails where extra support is needed. We’ll help you choose proportions, edging and finishes to match your patio, paths and garden style.
