Upgrade your garden with limestone paving that suits Banstead’s downland setting and smart streets. We install patios, paths and seating areas across SM7, including near Banstead High Street and Nork Park. Limestone gives a clean, contemporary look while still feeling natural and warm outdoors. Expect crisp lines, consistent falls for drainage, and a finish that’s comfortable to walk on.
Homes in Banstead range from large detached houses to 1930s properties and modern executive builds, and each needs a slightly different paving approach. Wider plots in Nork and Burgh Heath often benefit from larger-format limestone and generous steps. For 1930s gardens, we can blend new paving with existing brickwork and boundary details. If you’re near Banstead Downs, we’ll also factor in exposure and wind-driven rain when planning joints and sealing.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels check and a clear written scope so there are no surprises. We excavate properly, build a stable sub-base, and lay limestone on a full mortar bed for strength and longevity. Edges, drainage falls and pointing are finished neatly, then we apply sealing where appropriate to help resist staining and weathering. Fine Landscaping is based in Norbury, only around 25 minutes away, so aftercare and follow-up are straightforward.
Banstead gardens can sit on chalky downland soils, so we pay close attention to sub-base depth and compaction to avoid movement. Access varies from wide driveways in executive homes to tighter side passages near Banstead High Street, and we plan deliveries and waste removal accordingly. We also consider surface water management and practical drainage details in line with expectations in the limestone paving in Reigate and Banstead Borough. If parking is limited, we schedule drops and collections to keep disruption down.

For limestone paving Banstead area projects, budgeting is usually £90–£160 per m² depending on slab grade, thickness, finish (honed or tumbled), edging details and site preparation. Most patio installations in Banstead come in around £3,500–£8,000, influenced by access, excavation requirements and drainage work. We’ll confirm measurements on site and provide an itemised estimate rather than a one-size figure.
Most limestone patios take 3–5 days from excavation to final pointing and clean-down. Timescales depend on the size and shape of the area, how much digging out is required, and whether we’re adding steps, retaining edges or drainage channels. Weather can slow curing and jointing, particularly in colder or wetter spells. We’ll agree a programme before starting and keep you updated daily.
In many cases, garden paving is permitted development and doesn’t need planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, working near boundaries, or if drainage could cause water to run onto the highway or neighbouring land. If your property has restrictions or is in a sensitive area, requirements can differ. We’ll flag any likely issues early and advise on drainage solutions and compliance.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for limestone paving, covering issues such as sub-base failure, movement caused by incorrect installation, and pointing defects attributable to our work. Natural stone itself can vary in tone and may weather over time, which is normal and not a fault. We’ll also explain aftercare, cleaning and resealing intervals to help your patio stay looking its best.
Popular options include Blue Limestone for a modern look, Grey Limestone for a softer contemporary tone, and Cream Limestone for brighter gardens. You can choose a tumbled finish for a more aged, textured feel or a honed finish for cleaner lines. We also recommend sealing where needed to help protect against stains and algae. We’ll bring samples, discuss slip-resistance and layout patterns, then help you select a design that suits your home.
