A well-built path changes how you use your garden day to day, from bins and bikes to prams and muddy boots. Our team designs and installs pathways across Tolworth, including around Tolworth Broadway and near Tolworth Tower. Whether you want a crisp, straight run to the front door or a softer curved route through planting, we tailor the layout to your space and style.
Tolworth’s mix of 1930s semis, post-war houses and newer developments often comes with narrow side access and sloping front gardens. We regularly work across KT5 and KT6, creating paths that suit existing brickwork, render and modern façades. If you’re updating a tired concrete strip or replacing uneven slabs, we’ll propose materials and edging that look intentional and add value.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check drainage and discuss how you want the path to function. You’ll receive a clear design proposal and itemised options, then our installers handle excavation, sub-base, falls and finishing details. We keep the site tidy, protect borders, and communicate throughout so there are no surprises. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, reliable scheduling and long-lasting results.
We plan around Tolworth’s typical access constraints, including shared drives and narrow side passages common on 1930s plots. Ground conditions can vary, so we specify the right sub-base depth and falls to manage surface water. Where needed, we incorporate permeable options such as resin bound or gravel to support drainage. We also consider practicalities like parking, deliveries and keeping entrances usable during the works.

Costs depend on material choice, ground preparation and access. As a guide, gravel pathways often start around £70–£120 per m², block paved paths typically sit at £110–£180 per m², natural stone commonly ranges £140–£250+ per m², and resin bound paths are usually £120–£200 per m². Steps, lighting integration, edging and drainage can increase the overall budget.
Most garden paths take 2–5 days on site once materials are confirmed, with larger or more complex layouts taking 1–2 weeks. Timescales vary based on excavation depth, waste removal, access for machinery, and whether we’re adding drainage channels, lighting, or steps. Resin bound and block paving also need careful base preparation and curing time. We’ll provide a realistic programme before work begins.
In many cases, garden pathways are permitted development and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re changing levels significantly, altering drainage onto the highway, or working near boundaries where water run-off is a concern. For front gardens, using permeable materials or appropriate drainage is often important. We’ll advise on best practice and check any relevant constraints before installation.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as sub-base failure, sinking, and movement caused by incorrect construction. The warranty assumes normal domestic use and that any maintenance guidance is followed (for example, keeping joints topped up where applicable). Material warranties can vary by manufacturer, especially for resin systems and lighting components, and we’ll confirm these in writing.
We offer natural stone paths for a premium, timeless look, block paved paths for strong pattern options, gravel pathways for a softer, permeable finish, and resin bound paths for a smooth, low-maintenance surface. Designs can be straight or curved, with edging in stone, brick or metal for crisp lines. We can also add lighting integration and drainage details. We’ll help you choose based on style, budget and how you use the space.
