Pimlico’s elegant streets and garden squares deserve hard landscaping that looks refined and performs in all weathers. Whether you’re near Tate Britain or walking distance from Pimlico tube station, we create patios, pathways and steps that suit the architecture and daily use. We also build retaining walls, edging and robust foundations for planters and outdoor structures. Every installation is planned to handle London rainfall with proper falls and drainage.
Local projects often involve Regency townhouses, mansion blocks and period conversions, where space is precious and detailing matters. In the hard landscaping Pimlico area, we frequently work with compact rear gardens, lightwells and communal courtyards that need careful access planning. We match materials and jointing to period façades while keeping surfaces safe underfoot. For properties around Westminster and Victoria, we design layouts that maximise usable space without feeling overbuilt.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear specification covering sub-base, edging, falls and drainage runs. You’ll receive a straightforward plan and schedule, then a dedicated team keeps the site tidy and secure throughout. Our builds are measured, set out accurately and finished with crisp lines and consistent levels. Homeowners choose us for hard landscaping in City of Westminster because we communicate clearly and stand behind the work.
Pimlico sites often have restricted access, residents’ parking controls and shared boundaries, so deliveries and waste removal must be planned carefully. We design around lightwells, basement levels and existing services common in SW1 mansion blocks and period conversions. Ground conditions can vary, so we specify the right sub-base depth and drainage to avoid water pooling. Where council requirements apply, we help you stay compliant and keep the project moving.

Costs in SW1 vary by access, excavation depth and material choice. As a guide, patios and pathways often start from around £120–£220 per m² installed, while premium stone and complex patterns can be £250–£400+ per m². Small walls and steps are usually priced by size and structure, commonly from £900–£3,500+. Driveways depend on sub-base and drainage, often from £3,500–£12,000+.
Most patio or pathway projects take 3–7 working days once materials are on site. Larger schemes with steps, walls, foundations and drainage commonly run 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on access (common around mansion blocks), the amount of excavation, curing time for concrete, and whether we’re working around existing services or tree roots. We provide a clear programme before starting and keep you updated as the build progresses.
Many garden hard landscaping works are permitted development, but rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas and properties with specific conditions—common in parts of City of Westminster. Driveways may need careful attention to surface water requirements, especially if you’re replacing impermeable surfaces. We’ll advise on permeable options, drainage and any permissions that may apply. If approvals are needed, we can support with drawings and specifications.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our hard landscaping installations, covering workmanship and structural performance when the build is used and maintained as advised. This includes issues such as movement caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, failed jointing due to poor installation, or drainage falls not set correctly. Materials are also covered by their manufacturer warranties where applicable. We document the build specification so you know exactly what’s been installed.
We design and build with porcelain paving, sandstone and limestone, granite setts, clay pavers, and resin-bound or permeable block paving for driveways. For walls and edging, we use brick, natural stone, concrete kerbs and bespoke copings to suit period architecture. We’ll help you choose finishes based on slip resistance, maintenance, colour tone and how the space is used. Layout options include herringbone, stretcher bond, large-format slabs and mixed-sett borders.
