From quick walks to Westfield London to evenings near Shepherd's Bush Empire, a well-planned path makes daily life easier and your entrance more inviting. Fine Landscaping designs and installs pathways that look refined and perform in all weather. Choose natural stone, block paving, gravel or resin bound surfaces to suit your property and budget. We also handle edging, drainage solutions and lighting integration for a complete finish.
Shepherd's Bush homes range from Victorian terraces to mansion conversions and modern apartments, often with compact front gardens and shared access routes. We design paths that respect period detailing while delivering clean lines and safe thresholds. For W12 properties, we can incorporate curved designs to soften tight layouts and improve flow. Our material choices balance kerb appeal with low maintenance and slip resistance.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear design proposal, then prepare a proper sub-base to prevent movement and puddling. Every installation is built with careful compaction, accurate falls and neat edging to keep lines crisp. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy working practices and straightforward communication. You’ll also receive aftercare guidance to keep your new path looking its best.
In the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, many gardens sit behind short front boundaries with limited working space and controlled parking. We plan deliveries, waste removal and access carefully, especially around busy routes near White City and Holland Park. Local clay-heavy soils and older drainage can cause standing water, so we prioritise permeable options and robust drainage solutions. Our detailing suits both Victorian façades and contemporary apartment entrances.

Costs vary by material, excavation depth, access and drainage needs. As a guide, gravel pathways often start around £80–£140 per m², block paved paths typically £120–£220 per m², and resin bound paths roughly £140–£260 per m². Natural stone paths can range from £180–£350+ per m² depending on the stone and pattern. Edging, steps, lighting and drainage are priced based on scope.
Most pathway projects take 2–5 days from excavation to final finish, depending on size and complexity. A small straight run in gravel may be completed in 1–2 days, while curved designs with lighting integration, edging and drainage solutions can take a week. Timescales also depend on access for materials, the need to remove old surfaces, and curing time for bedding and jointing where applicable.
In many cases, a garden path is permitted development and won’t need planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, working near a highway, or if the property is listed or within a conservation area. For front gardens, permeable surfaces and suitable drainage are important to comply with surface water requirements. We’ll advise on best practice and help you check any council constraints before work begins.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our pathway installations, covering issues such as movement caused by poor base preparation, edging failure, and drainage falls not performing as specified. Materials are also covered by relevant manufacturer warranties where applicable (for example, resin systems and lighting components). The warranty assumes normal domestic use and reasonable maintenance. We’ll explain care requirements and provide aftercare tips at handover.
We offer natural stone paths for a premium, timeless look, block paved paths for pattern and durability, gravel pathways for a softer, cost-effective finish, and resin bound paths for a smooth, permeable surface. Design options include curved layouts, contrasting edging, step detailing, and lighting integration for safer access. We’ll recommend colours and textures that complement Victorian brickwork or modern façades, and we’ll match the solution to drainage and maintenance preferences.
