If you want a patio that looks established from day one, Indian sandstone is a standout choice for SE20 homes. We regularly work around Penge High Street and near Penge East station, creating practical outdoor spaces that suit busy households. From dining terraces to neat garden paths, we install stonework that feels proportionate to your plot. Colours and laying patterns are chosen to complement your brickwork and planting.
Penge’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions often come with compact gardens and side returns, so layout matters. We design paving that improves flow from kitchen to lawn, while keeping drainage and thresholds right. For the indian sandstone penge area, we’ll recommend sizes and patterns that reduce cutting and keep joints consistent. The result is a premium finish that suits older properties without looking over-designed.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear written specification, then prepare a proper sub-base before laying calibrated stone. Pointing is finished neatly, and sealing is available where you want extra stain resistance and easier cleaning. We protect access routes, keep the site tidy, and update you daily on progress. Homeowners choose us because we’re local (around 15 minutes away) and we stand behind our workmanship.
Working in the London Borough of Bromley, we’re used to tight access, on-street parking and timed deliveries near busier routes. Many Penge gardens sit behind period homes, so we plan barrow runs and protect hallways and side passages. Ground conditions can vary, so we adjust sub-base depth and drainage details to match the site. We also keep an eye on thresholds and air bricks, which are common on older terraces.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
For Indian sandstone paving in Penge, budgets typically fall between £80–£130 per square metre depending on stone grade, calibration, pattern complexity and site access. Most patio projects land around £3,000–£6,500, which usually includes ground preparation, sub-base, laying, pointing and tidy-up. Extras such as steps, drainage channels, edging, or sealing can increase the total, so we itemise these clearly.
Most Indian sandstone patio or pathway installations take around 3–5 days, assuming straightforward access and average weather. Timescales can extend if we’re removing old concrete, correcting levels, building steps, or adding drainage to manage surface water. Larger pattern designs and lots of cutting also add time. We’ll confirm a realistic programme after measuring up and checking the ground conditions on site.
In many cases, garden patios and paths are permitted development and won’t need planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, working near boundaries, or if the property is listed or in a conservation area. Drainage is also important, especially for front gardens where permeable solutions may be required. We’ll flag any likely constraints and help you check Bromley requirements before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as sub-base failure, significant settlement caused by poor preparation, and jointing defects due to application. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or staining where sealing hasn’t been chosen, but we’ll always advise on care to minimise those risks. You’ll receive aftercare guidance for cleaning, maintenance and resealing intervals if applicable.
Indian sandstone comes in a wide range of tones, including warm buff, grey, autumn blends and more contemporary mixed colours. Popular layouts include random course, single-size grids, and pattern designs that suit smaller SE20 gardens. We can add contrasting borders, edging setts, or steps to tie the space together. We’ll bring samples, talk through slip resistance and maintenance, and recommend the best option for your light and planting.
