Sevenoaks homeowners often want outdoor spaces that look refined year-round and cope with regular use. Indian sandstone is a premium choice for patios and pathway paving thanks to its natural variation and excellent grip underfoot. We regularly work near Knole House and around Riverhead, creating terraces that suit both modern and traditional gardens. Expect clean edges, tidy falls for drainage, and a finish that complements your planting.
The Sevenoaks District has a mix of large detached houses, period properties and executive homes where presentation matters. We design sandstone layouts that sit comfortably alongside brickwork, render and heritage features, while improving day-to-day access to lawns and outbuildings. In TN13 and TN14, we often see generous rear gardens and side access that benefit from well-planned paths and landing areas. Our detailing is geared to properties where the patio becomes a second living space.
We start with a site visit to measure, discuss colour choices, and confirm levels and drainage. Your sub-base is built properly, then calibrated stone is laid for consistent thickness and a neat finish; we complete pointing and sealing where appropriate for durability and easier maintenance. Work is typically completed in 3–5 days, with clear daily updates and a tidy site at the end of each day. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, careful workmanship and a finish that lasts.
Access and parking can be tight near Sevenoaks High Street, so we plan deliveries and cutting areas to minimise disruption. Ground conditions vary, and we adjust sub-base depth and compaction to suit each garden’s levels and drainage. Many homes around Otford and Dunton Green have mature planting and established boundaries, so we protect lawns, fencing and paving routes during works. We also consider practicalities like waste removal, skip placement and neighbour-friendly working hours.

For indian sandstone sevenoaks area projects, most installations fall between £80–£130 per square metre, depending on stone choice, pattern, edging and site preparation. Typical total spend is around £3,000–£6,500 for a garden patio or combined patio-and-path scheme. Costs can rise where excavation is deeper, access is restricted, or you choose intricate pattern designs and premium pointing and sealing.
Most Indian sandstone installations take 3–5 days, covering excavation, sub-base build-up, laying calibrated stone, and finishing with pointing and sealing as specified. Timescales can extend if you’re adding steps, retaining edges, complex patterns, or if access limits machinery and requires more hand work. Weather also matters, particularly for curing and jointing. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after surveying your garden.
In many cases, patios and garden pathways are permitted development and won’t need planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, working near boundaries, affecting drainage, or if the property is listed or in a conservation area. For indian sandstone in Sevenoaks District, we check practical compliance points such as water run-off and surface levels, and we’ll flag anything that may require council advice before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for Indian sandstone installations. This covers issues arising from installation, such as sub-base failure, movement due to poor preparation, or jointing problems linked to our work. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or extreme weather events beyond reasonable expectations. We also advise on aftercare, including cleaning and resealing intervals, to help your patio stay looking sharp.
Indian sandstone comes in a wide range of tones, from warm buff and autumn blends to cooler greys and mixed multi-colours. We can lay it in random, coursed, or more formal pattern designs, and we’ll recommend joint widths and edging to match the look of your home. Calibrated stone is ideal for crisp levels, and we can include pointing and sealing for a cleaner, easier-to-maintain finish.
