Fine Landscaping provides professional groundwork services across SW6, supporting homeowners and builders with safe, accurate preparation. From plots near Parsons Green tube station to properties by Eel Brook Common, we set out levels, dig, and build stable bases that last. Our team can form foundations, install drainage runs, and pour concrete slabs to specification. If access is tight or neighbours are close, we plan logistics carefully to keep the site controlled and tidy.
Parsons Green’s Victorian terraces, Georgian cottages and mansion flats often come with mature gardens, shared boundaries and restricted side access. That means excavation spoil removal, material deliveries and plant positioning must be organised precisely. We’re used to working around existing services, basements and older drainage layouts commonly found around Fulham and Walham Green. Whether you’re creating a new patio sub-base, an access road to a rear garden, or levelling for a garden room, we tailor the groundwork to the property’s structure and constraints.
We start with a site visit, utility checks and a clear method statement, then sequence the works: clearance, excavation, drainage, foundations and final levels. You’ll get straightforward communication, photo updates when helpful, and a clean handover ready for the next trade. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty on qualifying groundwork and hard landscaping installations. Homeowners choose us for accurate levels, dependable drainage falls, and a finish that prevents future settlement issues.
As groundwork contractors in London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, we account for tight streets, controlled parking, and delivery timing. Many SW6 homes have limited access routes, so we plan barrowing runs, protect finishes, and keep noise and dust managed. We also factor in older clay drainage, historic garden walls, and tree roots near green spaces such as Eel Brook Common. Where required, we liaise with local requirements and ensure the build-up meets current standards.

Costs vary with access, depth of dig, spoil removal and the type of build-up required. For Parsons Green projects, small groundwork packages (clearance, minor excavation and levelling) often start from £1,500–£3,500. Drainage installations commonly range £2,000–£6,000 depending on runs and connections. Concrete bases and foundations can be £3,000–£12,000+ based on size, reinforcement and specification. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site survey.
Most residential groundwork in SW6 takes 2–10 working days, depending on scope. Simple site clearance and levelling may be completed in 1–3 days, while excavation, drainage and a concrete slab usually takes 4–7 days plus curing time. Foundations and retaining walls can extend the programme to 2–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by access for machinery, skip permits, weather, and findings such as unexpected services or poor ground.
Many garden and driveway groundwork jobs are permitted development, especially like-for-like replacement or works that don’t change the building’s footprint. However, rules can apply for front garden paving and drainage, listed buildings, conservation areas, and works affecting party walls or trees. If you’re forming new access, altering levels significantly, or connecting to drainage, additional approvals may be needed. We’ll flag likely requirements, help with specifications, and recommend when to check with the council.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations, covering workmanship-related issues such as sub-base failure, incorrect falls leading to standing water, and defects in our retaining wall or concrete work. The warranty applies when the build-up and materials match the agreed specification and the area is used as intended. We also give clear aftercare guidance and can schedule periodic checks for high-use areas like access roads and driveways.
Groundwork is the hidden structure, but you still have choices that affect performance and finish. Popular options include reinforced concrete slabs for garden rooms, permeable sub-bases for driveways, French drains and channel drains for surface water control, and engineered retaining walls with proper backfill and weep vents. We can also create access roads using Type 1 sub-base and stabilisation layers where needed. We’ll recommend the best build-up based on soil, levels, and how you’ll use the space.
