From Morden station to the quieter streets around Morden Park, homeowners want paths that look sharp and stay safe in all weather. We design and install pathways that guide visitors neatly to your door, connect patios to lawns, or improve side access. Expect crisp lines, well-planned levels and surfaces that feel solid underfoot. Every build is tailored to your layout, not a one-size approach.
Morden’s mix of 1930s semis, post-war estates and modern developments means pathways need to suit different frontages and garden proportions. We regularly work across SM4, including Morden South and Lower Morden, where space can be tight and levels vary. Whether you need a straight run to the porch or a curved route around planting beds, we design for practical daily use. Finishes are chosen to complement brickwork, render and boundary walls typical of the area.
Our process starts with a site visit, measured layout and clear material recommendations, then careful ground preparation to prevent sinking and puddling. We install proper sub-bases, edging restraints and drainage solutions so the path performs year after year. You’ll get tidy workmanship, clear communication and a written 10-year warranty for peace of mind. Local homeowners choose Fine Landscaping because we build paths that stay level, drain well and look premium.
We’re 15 minutes from Morden, so visits and aftercare are straightforward. In the London Borough of Merton, we often encounter mixed ground conditions and older garden levels that need careful setting-out to avoid trip points. We plan deliveries and parking around residential streets near Baitul Futuh Mosque and busier routes by Morden station. Our builds factor in water run-off and practical access, so paths stay tidy and compliant.

Costs vary by material, ground preparation and access. As a guide, gravel pathways often start around £70–£120 per m², block paved paths typically fall in the £120–£200 per m² range, and natural stone is commonly £160–£280+ per m². Resin bound paths are usually £140–£240 per m². Edging, steps, lighting and drainage can add to the total after a site survey.
Most garden paths take 2–5 days from excavation to final finish, depending on length, curves and the chosen surface. Resin bound installations are often quicker once the base is prepared, while natural stone can take longer due to cutting and setting. Timescales also depend on access for removing spoil, weather, and whether we’re adding lighting integration or drainage channels. We’ll confirm a realistic programme after measuring up.
In many cases, garden pathways are permitted development and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re changing levels significantly, working near boundaries, or altering drainage so water runs onto the highway. Using permeable surfaces (such as gravel or resin bound) and proper drainage solutions often helps. For pathway design & installation in London Borough of Merton, we’ll advise on likely requirements and flag anything that should be checked before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our pathway installation workmanship, covering issues such as sinking caused by sub-base failure, loose edging due to incorrect restraint, and installation-related movement. It’s based on correct use and normal ground conditions, with exclusions for accidental damage, tree-root upheaval, or third-party alterations. We also follow manufacturer guidance for products like resin systems. If a problem arises, we’ll inspect promptly and put it right where covered.
Popular choices include natural stone paths for a timeless look, block paved paths to match existing driveways, gravel pathways for a softer, permeable finish, and resin bound paths for a smooth, low-maintenance surface. We can add curved designs, contrasting borders, robust edging and discreet lighting integration along steps or planting beds. We’ll help you choose finishes that suit your home’s style, your budget, and how you use the space day to day.
