Between Streatham's bustle and Thornton Heath's residential calm sits Norbury - where Edwardian semis meet 1930s estates, each presenting distinct landscaping challenges. Clay-heavy soil after winter rains? Narrow side returns blocking access? These local quirks shape every project differently. Hard landscaping here means understanding how water flows down from Pollards Hill during storms.
Block paving installation requires precise gradient calculations, particularly crucial given SW16's notorious surface water issues. Permeable surfaces now dominate specifications - council regulations have tightened considerably. Natural stone patios need proper sub-base preparation to prevent the frost heave common in London clay. Retaining wall construction addresses those awkward level changes where Victorian builders carved into hillsides.
Twenty-three completed driveways along Norbury Crescent speak louder than promises. Local knowledge accumulated through decades working these specific streets - knowing which suppliers deliver promptly to CR7, understanding planning quirks for conservation areas near the station.
