A well-built path changes how your home feels from the first step—guiding visitors, protecting lawns, and adding value. From smart front approaches near Sevenoaks High Street to garden routes leading towards patios and outbuildings, we design paths that suit how you live. Expect clean lines, safe levels and a premium finish that complements planting and architecture. We can also integrate lighting for evening use and added security.
Sevenoaks homes often call for a higher standard of detailing, whether you’re updating a period property or refining an executive home. In areas such as Riverhead and Otford, we frequently install pathways that balance character with modern performance. Natural stone can echo traditional materials, while resin bound offers a sleek, low-maintenance look for contemporary builds. We tailor widths, curves and thresholds to suit larger detached plots and busy family entrances.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and a clear design proposal, then careful ground preparation to prevent movement and puddling. We install robust sub-bases, set accurate falls, and add drainage solutions where needed to manage surface water. Every pathway is finished with neat edging and tidy junctions to lawns, beds and steps. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, respectful workmanship, and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Across the Sevenoaks District, clay-heavy ground and winter rainfall can expose poor groundwork quickly, so we prioritise depth, compaction and correct falls. In TN13 and TN14, access can be tight with shared drives or limited on-street parking, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also match materials to local property styles, from period façades to modern executive homes. If surface-water rules apply, we’ll recommend permeable options such as resin bound or gravel.

Costs vary by material, groundworks and access. As a guide, gravel pathways often start around £70–£120 per m², block paved paths typically £120–£180 per m², resin bound paths £140–£220 per m², and natural stone paths commonly £160–£280+ per m². Steps, lighting integration, edging, and drainage can add to the total. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most garden paths take 2–5 working days, depending on length, curves, and the amount of excavation required. Resin bound installations can be quicker once the base is prepared, while natural stone and intricate block patterns take longer due to cutting and setting. Timescales are also affected by access, waste removal, and whether drainage solutions or lighting cabling are included. We confirm a realistic programme before starting.
In many cases, a garden pathway is permitted development, especially when it’s within your property boundary. However, rules can change if you’re in a conservation area, altering levels significantly, or directing surface water towards the highway. Permeable finishes (like resin bound or gravel) and suitable drainage are often recommended. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and can advise on what to check with Sevenoaks District Council if needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our pathway installations, covering workmanship and installation-related issues such as sub-base failure, significant settlement, and edge restraint problems (subject to normal use and maintenance). Material warranties vary by manufacturer and product, and we’ll explain these clearly before you choose finishes. We also give aftercare guidance to keep joints, gravel and resin surfaces performing well year after year.
We offer natural stone paths for timeless character, block paved paths for pattern and colour choice, gravel pathways for a softer, cost-effective route, and resin bound paths for a smooth, permeable finish. Design options include curved layouts, contrasting edging, step details, and lighting integration along borders or entrances. We help you select colours and textures that suit your house style, existing paving, and how the path will be used daily.
