Nunhead homeowners often want a surface that looks premium yet stands up to daily use. Our imprinted concrete is ideal for creating crisp stone, brick, slate or cobble effects without loose joints. We regularly work around SE15, including streets near Nunhead Cemetery and Telegraph Hill Park. The result is a clean, cohesive finish that suits both front driveways and back garden patios.
The Nunhead area has a strong mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period cottages, many with compact front gardens and narrow side access. We design pours and layout lines to complement original brickwork, bay windows and traditional garden walls. If you’re updating a tired path or replacing patchy slabs, we’ll recommend patterns and colours that feel in keeping rather than overly modern. For neighbouring areas like Peckham and East Dulwich, we match styles to each property’s character.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels and drainage, and agree the pattern and colour. Preparation is thorough: sub-base, reinforcement where required, controlled pour, imprinting, then curing and sealing for protection. We keep disruption low with clear scheduling and tidy working practices, and we explain aftercare so the finish stays sharp. Local clients choose Fine Landscaping for consistent workmanship and a straightforward, written 10-year warranty.
Working across the imprinted concrete in London Borough of Southwark means planning for tight access, resident parking and busy school-run times. In Nunhead, we often find mixed ground conditions and older garden boundaries, so we pay close attention to sub-base depth, edge restraint and falls for drainage. We also consider how new hardstanding affects surface water, especially on sloping streets near Nunhead Green. Our team is based just 25 minutes away, so follow-up sealing and aftercare are easy to arrange.

Costs in SE15 vary mainly by size, access, excavation needs and design choice. As a guide, imprinted concrete patios often start around £90–£130 per m², while driveways are commonly £100–£160 per m² due to heavier-duty preparation. Steps, drainage channels, edgings, and complex patterns or multiple colours can increase the total. We provide a detailed written quote after a site survey.
Most projects take 2–5 days on site, depending on area size and how much groundwork is required. Day one is usually excavation and sub-base preparation, followed by forming, pouring and imprinting, then curing and sealing at the right time. Larger driveways, difficult access, drainage upgrades or poor ground can extend the schedule. We’ll confirm timings before starting and keep you updated daily.
Many driveway and garden hardstanding projects are permitted development, but rules can apply around surface water drainage and changes to front gardens. If the new surface doesn’t drain to a permeable area within your boundary, you may need to add suitable drainage or seek permission. Restrictions can also apply to listed buildings or conservation considerations. We’ll advise on compliant drainage options and help you understand what’s needed before work begins.
Yes. Our imprinted concrete installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship-related issues such as structural cracking caused by inadequate preparation, poor compaction or incorrect installation. It also covers failures linked to our specified materials and application methods. Normal wear, accidental damage, de-icing salt misuse, or lack of basic maintenance (like periodic resealing) aren’t covered. We provide aftercare guidance and can schedule resealing when required.
You can choose from stone patterns for a natural look, brick patterns that suit period homes, slate patterns for a contemporary patio, and cobble patterns for traditional driveways. We offer custom colour options, including subtle charcoal, warm buff and classic terracotta tones, plus contrasting borders if you want definition. We’ll bring samples, discuss how light affects colour, and recommend a seal finish that enhances the final look while improving stain resistance.
