A well-built path changes how you use your garden, from the front gate to the patio. We design and install pathways across Banstead, including homes near Banstead High Street and the open stretches of Banstead Downs. Whether you want a straight, formal route or a flowing curved design, we’ll match the layout to your planting and levels. Every path is finished with neat edging and considered drainage so it stays tidy year-round.
Banstead’s mix of large detached houses, 1930s properties and executive homes often calls for higher-end finishes and clean detailing. In Nork and around Burgh Heath, we regularly create pathways that complement wide frontages, generous side access and landscaped rear gardens. We can coordinate materials with existing brickwork, paving and boundary walls to keep everything cohesive. For sloped plots or long runs, we plan the route to feel natural underfoot and easy to maintain.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels and discuss how you’ll use the space. Then we propose materials and a layout, including lighting integration, edging profiles and drainage solutions where needed. Our installation team builds solid sub-bases, compacts properly and finishes joints cleanly for a premium result. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, tidy working practices and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
In the SM7 area we often encounter mixed ground conditions and changes in level, so we design bases and falls carefully to move water away from buildings. Access and parking can vary between wider driveways and tighter approaches, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also consider how pathways sit alongside mature planting and boundary features common in Banstead gardens. If you’re in the pathway design & installation banstead area, we’ll tailor materials and detailing to suit the property style and setting.

Costs depend on size, groundworks and the finish you choose. As a guide, gravel pathways often start around £70–£120 per m², block paved paths typically £110–£180 per m², and natural stone commonly £140–£250+ per m². Resin bound paths are usually £120–£200 per m². Steps, complex curves, edging, lighting integration and drainage solutions can increase the total.
Most garden paths take 2–5 days from excavation to final finish, depending on length, width and access. Larger schemes with curved designs, multiple landings or lighting integration can take 1–2 weeks. Timescales are affected by ground conditions, the amount of spoil to remove, curing times (especially for resin) and any drainage works. We’ll provide a realistic programme after the site survey.
In many cases, garden pathways are permitted development and won’t need planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, working near boundaries, or creating impermeable surfaces in front gardens where drainage is restricted. Conservation considerations can also affect some locations. We’ll advise on best practice, specify permeable options such as resin bound or gravel where appropriate, and help you check any relevant Reigate and Banstead Borough requirements.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering installation workmanship, including sub-base preparation, compaction and laying standards. This helps protect you against issues such as settlement caused by inadequate groundworks or poor installation. Materials are supplied to manufacturer specifications, and any product warranties are passed on where applicable. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from misuse, heavy vehicle loading on paths, or ground movement beyond reasonable control.
We offer natural stone paths for a timeless look, block paved paths for crisp patterns and easy repairs, and gravel pathways for a softer, traditional finish. Resin bound paths are popular for a clean, permeable surface with minimal maintenance. We can include curved designs, contrasting edging, and discreet lighting integration for safety and ambience. During the survey, we’ll recommend colours, textures and jointing to suit your home and garden layout.
