Limestone is a premium choice for patios and garden paths, giving a clean, architectural look with natural variation. We install limestone paving across Bromley, including BR1 and BR2, with careful preparation for a surface that stays level. Whether you’re near Bromley South station or heading out towards Shortlands, we’ll help you pick a colour and finish that suits your home. Expect sharp detailing around steps, drains and planting borders.
The Bromley area includes large detached houses, Victorian villas and smart modern developments, often with generous rear gardens. We regularly design patios that complement period brickwork in Bickley and more contemporary extensions in Bromley Common. Our layouts consider how you use the space—dining zones, walkways, and a practical transition from house to lawn. The result is limestone paving Bromley area homeowners can enjoy year-round.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels check, and a clear written specification. We excavate properly, build a solid sub-base, and lay each slab with consistent bed depth and jointing for long-term performance. We can apply sealing once the paving is ready, helping resist staining and algae. Homeowners choose us for tidy working, reliable scheduling, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Bromley properties often combine sloping gardens with mixed ground conditions, so we set falls carefully and build sub-bases to suit. Access can be tight around driveways and side passages, especially near The Glades Shopping Centre and surrounding streets, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also consider surface water management and practical drainage details for patios close to the house. Our approach keeps finishes sharp while meeting local expectations for quality.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
For Limestone Paving in Bromley, expect around £90–£160 per square metre installed, depending on stone choice, finish, and site preparation. Typical patio projects often fall between £3,500 and £8,000, influenced by access, excavation depth, edging, drainage, and whether you add steps or retaining details. We provide a clear breakdown after a site visit so you can compare like-for-like specifications.
Most limestone patio installations take 3–5 days, assuming straightforward access and average-sized areas. Timescales can extend if we need deeper excavation, additional drainage, steps, complex cuts around manholes, or if weather delays curing and jointing. We’ll confirm a realistic programme before starting and keep the site safe and usable at the end of each day wherever possible.
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 the property is listed or within a conservation area. Drainage is also important—permeable solutions or suitable run-off management may be required. We’ll flag likely requirements during the survey and advise what to check with the London Borough of Bromley if needed.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty covering installation issues such as movement caused by inadequate base preparation, poor laying, or jointing failures. It’s designed to give peace of mind that the patio has been built correctly from the ground up. Natural stone itself can vary in tone and markings, which is part of its character, but we’ll always set expectations on colour blend and finish before work begins.
Popular options include Blue Limestone for a contemporary look, Grey Limestone for a softer neutral tone, and Cream Limestone for brighter patios that lift shaded gardens. Finish choices include a honed finish for a smooth, modern feel or a tumbled finish for a more aged, traditional appearance. We’ll help you choose slab size, laying pattern and edging details, and we can recommend sealing for easier maintenance and stain resistance.
