A well-built garden path should look refined, feel safe underfoot and cope with year-round weather. We design and install pathways across CR2, creating routes that suit how you move between the house, patio and lawn. From smart front approaches near All Saints Church to family-friendly garden links close to Sanderstead Recreation Ground, we tailor every detail. Expect clean lines, tidy transitions and a finish that complements your home.
Sanderstead’s affluent residential streets include large detached houses, executive homes and characterful period properties, often with generous front gardens and side access. We create paths that match brickwork, render and traditional detailing without looking “bolted on”. Whether you’re in Purley, Selsdon or Hamsey Green, we’ll balance kerb appeal with everyday practicality. Our pathway design & installation Sanderstead area service is built around durable materials and thoughtful layout.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check existing surfaces and discuss how you want the space to work. You’ll receive clear options on materials, edging, curved designs, lighting integration and drainage solutions, then a tidy, scheduled installation with careful preparation and compaction. We protect planting, keep access where possible and leave the site clean. Homeowners choose us for straightforward communication, high standards and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Ground levels and run-off vary across Sanderstead, so we set falls carefully and add drainage where needed. Access can be tight on some residential roads, so we plan deliveries, parking and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also consider local character—period homes and executive builds often suit different edging and stone tones. For pathway design & installation in London Borough of Croydon, we prioritise permeable options where appropriate.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs depend on the material, groundwork depth, access and drainage. As a guide, gravel pathways often start from £70–£120 per m², block paved paths typically range £120–£200 per m², resin bound paths are commonly £140–£220 per m², and natural stone paths are usually £160–£300+ per m². Curves, steps, lighting and premium edging will increase the overall price.
Most pathway projects take 2–5 days from excavation to finishing, depending on length, complexity and weather. A simple gravel path can be completed quickly, while natural stone or block paving with curved designs, edging and lighting integration may take longer. Timescales also change with access for machinery, spoil removal, and whether we’re adding drainage solutions or correcting levels around patios and lawns.
In many cases, garden paths are permitted development and won’t need planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re altering access points, working near highways, or if the property is listed or in a conservation area. Drainage is also important—permeable surfaces or run-off control may be required. We’ll advise on suitable materials and layouts and can help you check any Croydon-specific considerations before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our pathway installation workmanship, covering issues such as settlement caused by inadequate preparation, loose edging, or failures linked to the installed sub-base. Materials are also covered by relevant manufacturer warranties where applicable. The warranty assumes normal use and that the surface is maintained appropriately (for example, keeping joints topped up where required and avoiding harsh chemicals on certain finishes).
We offer natural stone paths for a premium, timeless look, block paved paths for crisp detail and patterns, gravel pathways for a softer, cost-effective finish, and resin bound paths for a smooth, permeable surface. Design options include curved layouts, contrasting borders, robust edging, step details, and lighting integration for safer evening access. We’ll help you choose based on your home’s style, foot traffic, drainage needs and the look you want.
