Eastfields homeowners want outdoor surfaces that look premium yet cope with everyday traffic, bins and buggies. Our imprinted concrete is a practical choice for driveways and patios, creating realistic stone, brick, slate or cobble patterns in a single, seamless slab. We regularly work near Eastfields station and around Figges Marsh, designing finishes that suit both front gardens and larger rear patios. Expect a clean, modern look without the weed-prone joints of block paving.
The Eastfields area mixes Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and newer developments, so no two entrances are the same. We tailor levels, edging and drainage details to narrow front gardens in Streatham Vale as well as wider plots towards Mitcham and Pollards Hill. Colour choice matters too—warmer tones can complement London stock brick, while greys and charcoals suit contemporary extensions. Our team is based just 5 minutes away, so site visits and follow-ups are straightforward.
We start with a measured survey, then prepare a solid sub-base, install reinforcement where required, and pour high-strength concrete. While the surface is workable, we apply release agents and stamp your chosen pattern for sharp definition, then cut control joints to help manage natural movement. Finally, we seal the surface for colour depth, stain resistance and easier cleaning. Local homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, clear scheduling and a finish that stays smart year after year.
In the London Borough of Merton, access can be tight on residential streets, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. Many SW16 and CR4 homes have short front gardens and shared crossovers, making accurate levels and drainage essential. We assess existing falls, thresholds and air bricks, then design the slab and edging to keep water moving away from the property. Where parking restrictions apply, we can advise on practical logistics before work begins.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in Eastfields vary with size, access and the amount of groundwork needed. As a guide, imprinted concrete patios often fall around £90–£140 per m², while driveways are commonly £100–£160 per m² due to thicker build-ups and heavier-duty preparation. Extras such as steps, drainage channels, complex curves, and premium sealing systems can increase the total. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site survey.
Most projects take 2–5 days on site, depending on the area size and how much excavation is required. A straightforward patio may be completed in 2–3 days, while a driveway with deeper dig-out, drainage work and edging can take longer. Weather also affects timing because stamping and sealing need suitable conditions. We’ll confirm a schedule in advance and keep you updated if conditions change.
Many driveway and garden hardstanding projects are permitted development, but rules can apply around drainage and where water runs. If the surface is non-porous, you may need to ensure water drains to a permeable area within your boundary rather than the highway. Conservation area considerations can also affect some properties. We’ll talk you through the requirements and can build in compliant drainage solutions where needed.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on our imprinted concrete installations, covering workmanship-related issues such as poor preparation, defective installation practices, or premature failure linked to our build. Like all concrete, minor hairline cracking can occur with natural movement and temperature changes, but we reduce risk through correct sub-base, reinforcement where appropriate, and control joints. We also advise on resealing intervals to protect the finish.
You can choose from popular stamped finishes including stone patterns, brick patterns, slate patterns and cobble patterns, with a wide range of custom colours and multi-tone effects. Many Eastfields homeowners opt for charcoal or silver-grey for a modern look, or warmer buff and terracotta tones to suit traditional brickwork. We’ll bring samples, recommend edging styles, and help match the design to your property and garden layout.
