Fine Landscaping delivers robust, well-finished outdoor construction for homeowners across SW9. Whether you’re near Stockwell tube station or closer to Stockwell Park, we create patios, paths and steps that look sharp and feel solid underfoot. Our team can also rebuild tired garden walls, add edging, and solve awkward levels with practical layouts. Every build is planned around how you actually use the space.
Stockwell’s mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and post-war estates often brings tight side access, shared boundaries and varied ground levels. We design hard landscaping that complements period brickwork and modern elevations alike, with careful detailing around thresholds and drains. If you’re in the Stockwell area between Brixton, Oval and Clapham, we’ll propose materials and patterns that suit the street scene. Our solutions balance appearance with long-term performance.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear written scope, then confirm foundations, falls and drainage before any paving goes down. Work is carried out by experienced installers, with tidy set-up and daily progress updates. We use proper sub-bases, compaction and jointing so surfaces stay stable through British weather. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clean finishes and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Hard landscaping in London Borough of Lambeth often means working with compact front gardens, basement lightwells and limited parking. Around Stockwell War Memorial and nearby streets, we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption and keep pavements clear. We also allow for London clay and variable made ground by specifying the right sub-base depth and drainage. The result is hard landscaping Stockwell area homeowners can rely on year after year.

Costs vary with access, excavation and material choice. As a guide, patios and pathways typically range from £120–£220 per m² installed, depending on paving type and sub-base depth. Brick or rendered garden walls often start around £250–£450 per m². Driveways can be £140–£260 per m², with drainage channels, steps and foundations affecting the total. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most patio or pathway projects take 3–7 working days, while larger builds with steps, walls and extensive groundwork can take 2–4 weeks. Timescales depend on excavation depth, spoil removal, curing time for concrete foundations, and whether drainage needs upgrading. Access in Stockwell terraces can also affect delivery and barrowing time. We confirm a realistic programme before starting and keep you updated throughout.
Many patios, paths and garden walls are permitted development, but driveways can trigger rules around surface water drainage and materials. If you’re adding or altering a front driveway, using permeable paving or directing water to a soakaway is often required. Restrictions can also apply to listed buildings or conservation considerations in parts of Lambeth. We’ll advise on compliant drainage and flag when you should check with the council before work begins.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our hard landscaping installations. This covers issues caused by installation faults, such as unstable paving due to inadequate sub-base preparation, poor compaction, or incorrect falls leading to persistent standing water. Materials are also covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or movement caused by third-party works, but we’re always available to inspect and advise.
Popular choices include porcelain paving for low maintenance, sandstone for a warmer natural look, and granite setts for edging or driveway detailing. For pathways and courtyards, we often use block paving, clay pavers or resin-bound surfaces where suitable drainage is needed. Walls can be built in brick to match Victorian terraces, or rendered for a cleaner finish. We’ll bring samples, discuss slip resistance and maintenance, and design around levels, steps and lighting.
