Denmark Hill homeowners often want a driveway or patio that suits period streets yet stands up to daily use. Our imprinted concrete creates realistic stone, brick, slate or cobble patterns with a clean, modern finish. We regularly work around Denmark Hill station and near King’s College Hospital, where access and timings matter. The result is a surface that looks premium and stays practical year-round in SE5.
From Victorian terraces to Georgian houses and purpose-built flats, outdoor spaces in Denmark Hill vary hugely in size and layout. Many front gardens are compact, with short paths and tight turning areas for parking. We design pattern direction, edging and drainage details to complement brick façades and traditional boundary walls. If you’re in Camberwell or Herne Hill, we can match the look to existing paving and garden levels.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels check and a clear written specification. We prepare a solid sub-base, pour and imprint the concrete, then apply professional sealing for colour depth and stain resistance. Fine Landscaping is based in Norbury, around 20 minutes away, so aftercare is straightforward. Homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, reliable scheduling and a finish backed by a 10-year warranty.
Working across the London Borough of Southwark, we’re used to narrow access, controlled parking and busy roads near Maudsley Hospital and Ruskin Park routes. Ground conditions and levels can vary between older terraces and newer blocks, so we survey carefully before setting falls and thresholds. We also plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. If required, we can advise on drainage approaches that suit Southwark expectations.

Costs in SE5 typically range from about £90–£140 per m², depending on access, excavation needs, sub-base depth and the pattern/colour chosen. Driveways can be at the higher end due to heavier-duty preparation and drainage details, while patios may be lower if groundworks are simpler. Sealing is usually included, but premium sealers or extra colour hardeners can add to the total.
Most patios take around 2–4 days, while driveways are commonly 3–7 days, depending on size and ground preparation. The biggest time factors are excavation, sub-base installation, edging, and whether drainage adjustments are needed. We also allow for curing time before vehicles return—often 5–7 days after pouring, depending on weather. We’ll confirm a schedule after the site survey.
In many cases, a driveway or patio is permitted development, but rules can apply if you’re changing levels, affecting drainage, or working near boundaries. For front gardens, you’ll usually need a permeable solution or drainage to a suitable area rather than the street. We’ll advise on compliant drainage options and check any constraints, including conservation considerations, before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering installation-related issues such as structural failure due to incorrect sub-base preparation, poor compaction, or workmanship defects. It also covers problems arising from improper sealing application where specified. Normal wear, accidental damage, de-icing salt misuse, or lack of routine cleaning and resealing aren’t covered. We’ll explain care requirements clearly and provide aftercare guidance.
Popular choices include ashlar slate, London brick, cobble and random stone, with borders to frame driveways or patios. Colour options range from warm buff and sandstone tones to charcoal and traditional brick reds, with antique releases for depth. We’ll bring samples, discuss how light affects colour near your property, and recommend a finish that suits Victorian terraces or modern flats alike. Sealer options can be matt or gloss.
