Indian sandstone is a standout choice for Banstead gardens, giving a natural, premium finish that suits both modern and traditional homes. We install patios and pathways that look right at home near Banstead High Street and across SM7. Expect calibrated stone for an even surface, neat falls for drainage, and clean edges that frame planting beautifully. From simple terraces to feature paving, we tailor the layout to how you use the space.
The Banstead area has a mix of large detached houses, 1930s properties and executive homes, often with generous rear gardens and side access. We design paving that complements brickwork, render and contemporary extensions, while keeping practical details in mind such as steps, thresholds and lawn levels. Whether you’re in Nork, Burgh Heath or closer to Tattenham Corner, we’ll recommend colours and patterns that suit your property’s style. The result is a hardwearing surface that feels considered, not cookie-cutter.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and a clear written scope, then careful ground preparation and a stable sub-base. We lay calibrated sandstone accurately, finish with professional pointing, and can apply sealing where appropriate for easier maintenance. You’ll get tidy workmanship, respectful site management, and a schedule that fits around your household. Local homeowners choose us for consistent standards, transparent pricing, and a 10-year warranty on workmanship.
We’re used to working across Reigate and Banstead Borough where access can be tight on driveways and parking needs planning. Around Banstead Downs and nearby residential roads, we set correct falls and drainage to avoid standing water on patios. We also account for mature trees, changes in level and existing landscaping features common with larger plots. With our base just 25 minutes away, we can respond quickly and keep your project moving.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
For Indian sandstone in Banstead, most homeowners budget £80–£130 per square metre supplied and installed, depending on stone grade, thickness, access and the amount of cutting. Typical projects come in around £3,000–£6,500 for a patio or combined patio-and-pathway. Edging details, steps, drainage adjustments, and sealing can affect the final figure, so we survey first and then price accurately.
Most Indian sandstone installations take 3–5 days, depending on size, pattern complexity and site conditions. Straightforward patios with good access move faster, while projects with steps, intricate pattern designs, or significant excavation can take longer. Weather can also influence curing times for bedding and pointing. We’ll provide a realistic schedule after the site visit and keep you updated throughout the build.
In many cases, patios and garden pathways are permitted development and won’t need planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re changing levels near boundaries, affecting drainage, or working on a listed building or within special designations. We also ensure surface water is managed correctly so it doesn’t run onto the highway. We’ll advise what’s likely required and can help you check any Reigate and Banstead Borough guidance before work starts.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our Indian sandstone installations. This covers issues caused by installation, such as movement from inadequate sub-base preparation, poor laying, or failing pointing when maintained correctly. Natural stone itself can vary in tone and markings, which is part of its character, but we select and lay slabs carefully for a consistent overall finish. Warranty terms are provided in writing with your quote.
Indian sandstone comes in a wide range of tones, including warm buff, grey, autumn blends and richer browns, with calibrated options for a cleaner build-up. We can install classic random layouts, coursed patterns, or more structured designs with borders and contrasting edging. Pointing colour and sealing choices also change the final look. We’ll bring samples, talk through maintenance, and help you choose a scheme that suits your Banstead garden.
