Woolwich gardens and frontages often need more than a quick refresh—they need structure. We deliver patios, pathways, retaining walls, steps and driveway builds designed to handle daily use and London weather. Whether you’re near the Royal Arsenal or commuting via Woolwich Town Centre, we create practical layouts with clean lines and durable finishes. Our team also integrates edging, drainage and foundations so everything performs as well as it looks.
Local properties range from Victorian terraces in Plumstead and Charlton to converted arsenal buildings and modern apartments around SE18. Each brings different constraints: narrow side access, shared boundaries, basement lightwells, or limited storage. We tailor levels, step heights and walling details to suit the architecture and keep transitions safe and comfortable. Where space is tight, we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption.
Our process starts with a site survey, levels check and a clear, itemised specification. We excavate properly, install stable sub-bases and set falls for reliable drainage before laying any surface. You’ll get straightforward communication, tidy working practices and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty. Homeowners choose us for consistent finishes, honest advice and builds that stay true over time.
Hard landscaping woolwich area projects often involve mixed ground, older brickwork and tight access around terraces and apartment blocks. We account for drainage routes, existing services and level changes common near the Thames corridor, including Thamesmead and Abbey Wood. Where parking and loading are restricted, we schedule deliveries and manage waste efficiently. We also work with local requirements and keep installations compliant, especially for front driveways and drainage.

Costs vary by materials, access and groundworks. As a guide, patios typically range from £120–£220 per m² installed, depending on paving choice and sub-base depth. Driveways are often £140–£260 per m², with drainage and edging affecting the total. Small walls and steps may start from £900–£2,500+, while larger structural builds can be more. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit.
Most patio or pathway projects take around 3–7 working days once work starts. A driveway is commonly 5–10 days, while walls, steps and multiple areas can run 2–4 weeks. Timescales depend on excavation depth, drainage requirements, curing time for concrete, and access for machinery and materials. We agree a programme in advance and keep you updated if weather or hidden ground conditions change the plan.
Many garden hard landscaping works are permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Front driveways usually need permeable surfacing or drainage to a soakaway rather than the highway. Permission may also be required for significant changes to levels, boundary walls, or if your property is listed or within a conservation area. We flag likely requirements during the survey and can help you check Royal Borough of Greenwich guidance before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our hard landscaping workmanship, covering issues linked to installation such as unstable sub-bases, poor laying, or failures in constructed elements like steps, edging and small walls. Materials are covered by the relevant manufacturer warranties where applicable. The warranty assumes normal use and that drainage routes aren’t altered after completion. We also offer aftercare advice to help keep paving and joints in great condition.
We install porcelain, sandstone, granite setts, concrete paving, resin-bound surfaces and block paving, plus brick or rendered walls and a range of coping and edging details. For SE18 homes, we often design clean, modern layouts for apartments and more traditional patterns for Victorian terraces. We’ll help you choose slip resistance, colour, jointing and drainage solutions to match your property and budget. Samples and clear drawings make decisions easier.
