Keston homeowners often want paving that suits both countryside character and modern outdoor living. Our limestone patios and paths look right at home near Keston Common and around properties close to Keston Ponds. We install clean, level surfaces that feel solid underfoot and drain properly. Expect a premium finish that elevates entertaining areas, side returns and garden steps.
We regularly work across BR2, including Hayes, Farnborough and Downe, where gardens range from compact courtyards to wide lawns. Period cottages benefit from softer edges and tumbled limestone, while large detached houses and country homes often suit bigger-format, honed slabs for a contemporary look. We’ll help you match colours and jointing to existing brickwork, stone walls and planting schemes. The result is paving that looks intentional, not “added on”.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels check and a clear written specification. We excavate to the right depth, build a robust sub-base, and bed the limestone correctly to reduce movement and rocking. Edges, falls and drainage are set out carefully before pointing, then we can apply sealing for extra stain resistance. Local clients choose us for tidy working, consistent communication and a 10-year workmanship warranty.
Keston sits within the London Borough of Bromley, where access can vary from narrow drives to long private frontages. We plan deliveries, parking and waste removal to minimise disruption, especially near busy routes and village lanes. Ground conditions can change between clay-heavy areas and freer-draining sections, so we tailor sub-base depth and drainage details accordingly. If your plot is close to Caesars Well or woodland edges, we’ll also account for leaf fall and shade when advising finishes and sealing.

For Limestone Paving in Keston, most projects fall between £90–£160 per m² supplied and installed, depending on slab choice, cut complexity and access. Typical overall costs are around £3,500–£8,000 for an average patio or combined patio-and-path scheme. Steps, drainage channels, intricate patterns and extensive excavation can increase the budget. We’ll provide a detailed breakdown after a site survey.
Most limestone paving jobs take 3–5 days, depending on size, weather and how much groundwork is required. Straightforward patio replacements can be quicker, while new builds needing deeper excavation, drainage adjustments or multiple levels usually take longer. Cutting around manholes, retaining edges and adding steps also adds time. We’ll confirm a schedule before starting and keep you updated daily.
In many cases, garden paving is permitted development, but rules can apply if you’re changing levels significantly, affecting drainage, or working near boundaries. For front gardens, permeable construction and correct run-off management are important to comply with national guidance. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, extra checks may be needed. We’ll advise on the practical requirements and help you stay compliant.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty covering installation-related issues such as sub-base failure, loose edging, or movement caused by incorrect bedding and compaction. It’s designed to give peace of mind that the paving has been built to last, not just to look good on day one. Natural stone itself can vary in tone and markings, which is normal and not a defect. Maintenance guidance is included.
We install blue limestone, grey limestone and cream limestone in a range of sizes, from clean contemporary formats to more traditional layouts. Popular finishes include a tumbled finish for softer edges that suit period cottages, and a honed finish for a smoother, modern look. We can also apply sealing to help resist staining from food, leaves and general use. We’ll bring samples and recommend jointing colours to suit your home.
