A well-built path makes daily life easier—bins out, bikes in, and guests arriving without muddy shoes. Our designs suit Nunhead’s calm, community feel, whether you’re near Nunhead Green or walking distance from Nunhead Cemetery. From clean, modern lines to softer curved layouts, we tailor every pathway to how you use your outdoor space. Work is planned to minimise disruption and keep access clear throughout.
Homes across SE15 often feature Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period cottages, where a path needs to complement brickwork, iron railings and traditional garden boundaries. We regularly work on narrow side passages, stepped entrances and compact front gardens common around Peckham and East Dulwich borders. Materials and edging are chosen to look right with period details while improving grip and durability. If you want a subtle upgrade, we can match existing paving tones and kerb styles.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear recommendation on materials, edging and drainage. Sub-bases are built properly, falls are set for runoff, and finishes are laid for long-term stability. You’ll receive a written scope of works and straightforward scheduling, with tidy workmanship from start to finish. Fine Landscaping is based just 25 minutes away, so local homeowners rely on us for responsive aftercare and consistent standards.
Nunhead streets can mean tight access, limited parking and careful material deliveries, especially near busier routes towards Peckham. We plan logistics, protect shared paths, and keep neighbours in mind during excavation and waste removal. Ground conditions vary, so we adjust sub-base depth and drainage details to suit clay-heavy areas and shaded gardens. Our pathway design & installation in London Borough of Southwark is always set out to respect period frontages and boundary lines.

Costs vary by material, access and groundwork, but typical Nunhead projects start around £90–£140 per m² for gravel with edging, £120–£180 per m² for block paving, £140–£220 per m² for natural stone, and £150–£230 per m² for resin bound. Steps, lighting integration, drainage channels and complex curves can increase the total. We’ll provide a detailed, itemised quotation after a site visit.
Most paths take 2–5 working days from excavation to finish, depending on size and complexity. A simple straight gravel path may be completed in 1–2 days, while natural stone or block paving with curves, edging and drainage often needs 3–6 days. Resin bound installations usually require good weather and curing time. Access constraints typical in SE15 side returns can also affect delivery and removal timings.
In many cases, garden paths are permitted development, especially when they’re permeable or direct water to a suitable drainage area. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, affecting drainage onto the highway, or working within conservation constraints near certain streets. We’ll advise on best practice, specify permeable options such as resin bound or gravel where appropriate, and help you check any Southwark requirements before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our pathway installation workmanship, covering issues such as settlement caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, loose edging, and movement in laid surfaces under normal use. Materials are also covered by manufacturer guarantees where applicable (for example, resin systems and paving products). The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or problems caused by third-party alterations, but we’re always available to inspect and advise.
We offer natural stone paths (sandstone, limestone, granite), block paved paths in traditional or contemporary patterns, gravel pathways with stabilisation grids, and resin bound paths for a smooth, permeable finish. Design options include curved layouts, contrasting borders, crisp edging (steel, stone setts, brick), and lighting integration along steps or edges. We’ll help you choose based on your home’s style, slip resistance, maintenance preferences and budget in the pathway design & installation Nunhead area.
