Notting Hill homeowners want outdoor surfaces that look sharp year-round and cope with busy street life. Our imprinted concrete is a popular choice for driveways and patios around Portobello Road Market and Notting Hill Gate, combining strong performance with a high-end finish. Choose from stone patterns, brick patterns, slate patterns or cobble patterns to suit your frontage. We also colour and seal the surface for a clean, consistent look.
Across W11 you’ll find pastel-painted Victorian townhouses, mansion conversions and characterful mews houses, each with different access and layout challenges. We design imprinted concrete that complements period façades and smart refurbishments, from compact mews courtyards to wider forecourts. In areas such as Holland Park and Ladbroke Grove, we often match tones to brickwork, railings and boundary walls. The result is a surface that looks considered, not “off the shelf”.
We start with a site visit to assess levels, drainage and how you use the space, then propose patterns, colours and edging details. Our team handles excavation, a properly compacted sub-base, reinforcement where needed, accurate pours and clean imprinting. After curing, we apply sealing to enhance colour and protect against stains and weathering. Homeowners trust us for tidy working, clear timelines, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Working in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea means planning for tight access, controlled parking and considerate working hours. Many W11 streets and mews have limited loading space, so we schedule deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also pay close attention to levels and drainage so water runs correctly away from entrances and lightwells. Our designs suit period townhouses and mews properties, with edging and colour choices that look right on the street.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
In Notting Hill, imprinted concrete is typically priced from around £90–£140 per m² for standard patterns and colours, with more detailed borders, multiple colours or complex levels often reaching £140–£180+ per m². Total cost depends on excavation depth, sub-base condition, access for skips and concrete wagons, drainage adjustments, and the size/shape of the area. Sealing and aftercare can be included or itemised.
Most installations take 3–7 days on site, depending on size and complexity. Groundworks and sub-base preparation usually take 1–3 days, with the pour and imprinting completed in a day when conditions allow. Curing time matters: you’ll normally keep vehicles off for about 5–7 days, sometimes longer in colder weather. Access restrictions in mews streets and drainage changes can extend timelines.
Many driveway and patio projects are permitted development, but rules can apply to front gardens, drainage and changes that affect the public highway. If you’re creating or altering a driveway crossover, you may need council approval. For front areas, we’ll advise on compliant drainage solutions (such as falls to a soakaway) and check any constraints affecting your property. We can also liaise with relevant parties if needed.
Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on our imprinted concrete installation workmanship, covering issues such as structural failure due to incorrect base preparation, poor compaction, or installation defects. It also covers problems arising from incorrect sealing application when included in the specification. Normal wear, accidental damage, misuse (like heavy vehicles beyond design load) and lack of maintenance aren’t covered, but we’ll explain aftercare clearly.
You can choose from stone patterns, brick patterns, slate patterns and cobble patterns, with single or blended custom colours to suit your frontage. Popular choices in the imprinted concrete notting hill area include warm greys for mews houses, charcoal borders for definition, and brick-style patterns that echo Victorian façades. We’ll bring samples, recommend a layout (including borders and steps), and specify the right sealer for the finish you want.
