Pimlico’s garden squares and riverside streets deserve pathways that look considered and last. From Tate Britain to Dolphin Square, we design routes that suit formal planting, iron railings and period detailing. Whether you want a crisp entrance path or a softer garden trail, we balance aesthetics with safe, even footing. Our installations are built for year-round use in SW1.
We regularly work with Regency townhouses, mansion blocks and period conversions across Pimlico, Westminster and Victoria. These properties often need sympathetic materials, neat lines and minimal disruption to shared access. We can match classic stone thresholds, create curved paths around mature shrubs, and keep levels tidy at steps and basement lightwells. The result is a pathway that complements the building rather than competing with it.
Every project starts with a site visit, measured survey and clear design options, including edging, lighting integration and drainage solutions. We prepare a stable sub-base, set accurate falls, and finish with precise joints and clean transitions to patios or entrances. Work is scheduled to suit residents and neighbours, with tidy daily clear-ups and straightforward communication. Homeowners choose us for dependable workmanship, premium finishes and a 10-year warranty.
Access in Pimlico can be tight, with controlled parking and shared entrances near Pimlico tube station and St George's Square. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to keep disruption low. Many gardens sit close to buildings, so we prioritise drainage, correct falls and careful detailing around steps and lightwells. If you need pathway design & installation in City of Westminster, we also consider local rules on surface water and conservation-area sensitivities.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary by material, access and ground preparation. In Pimlico, gravel pathways often start from around £90–£140 per m², block paved paths typically £120–£180 per m², and natural stone commonly £160–£260+ per m². Resin bound paths are usually £140–£220 per m². Edging, steps, lighting and drainage channels can add to the total, especially on constrained SW1 sites.
Most path projects take 2–5 working days from excavation to final finish, depending on size and complexity. A simple straight gravel path can be quick, while curved designs, intricate stone cutting, or block paving patterns take longer. Timescales also depend on access for materials, the need for drainage solutions, and curing time for resin or mortar. We provide a clear schedule before work begins.
Pathways in front or rear gardens are usually permitted development, but rules can change in conservation areas or listed buildings, which are common locally. The key consideration is surface water: impermeable paving in front gardens may need permeable materials or drainage to a suitable soakaway. We advise on compliant options such as resin bound, gravel or permeable block paving, and we’ll flag any permissions or council requirements before starting.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our pathway installations, covering workmanship and installation-related defects such as sub-base failure, sinking caused by poor compaction, and issues with edging stability. Materials are covered by their manufacturer warranties where applicable. The warranty assumes normal domestic use and that basic maintenance is followed, such as keeping drainage points clear and using appropriate cleaning methods for stone or resin surfaces.
We offer natural stone paths for a classic look, block paved paths for pattern and durability, gravel pathways for softer, traditional gardens, and resin bound paths for a smooth, permeable finish. Designs can be straight or curved, with contrasting edging, soldier courses, or metal/stone borders. We can also integrate low-glare lighting and discreet drainage. We’ll help you choose based on your property style, foot traffic and maintenance preferences in the pathway design & installation pimlico area.
