Bermondsey’s mix of warehouse conversions and lively streets calls for patios that look sharp and perform in all weathers. Whether you’re near Bermondsey Street or walking distance from Maltby Street Market, we design and build patios that feel like a natural extension of your home. Expect crisp edges, accurate falls for drainage, and finishes that complement brick, steel and contemporary glazing. We work across SE1 and SE16 with a tidy, considerate approach.
Local homes range from Victorian terraces to modern apartments with balconies and podium gardens, plus characterful converted warehouses around London Bridge and Tower Bridge. These properties often need smart solutions for limited access, shared entrances and noise-sensitive neighbours. We’re experienced with courtyard layouts, raised planters, seating areas and patio extensions that maximise usable space. Materials are chosen to suit the building style and the amount of sun, shade and foot traffic.
We start with a design consultation, then provide a clear specification covering sub-base depth, drainage, edging and pointing. Our team prepares the ground properly, using the right compaction and bedding for the chosen paving so it stays level and stable. You’ll get regular updates, protection for surrounding surfaces, and a thorough clean-down on completion. Homeowners choose us for dependable workmanship, transparent communication and a 10-year warranty.
As patios contractors Bermondsey area homeowners rely on, we plan for tight access and controlled deliveries common around SE1/SE16. In the London Borough of Southwark, parking restrictions and loading times can affect scheduling, so we organise materials and skips to minimise disruption. Ground conditions vary from made-up ground near older industrial plots to compact courtyard sub-bases, so we adjust excavation depth and build-up accordingly. We also choose finishes with slip resistance in mind for shaded gardens near taller buildings.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in Bermondsey typically depend on access, excavation depth and the paving type. As a guide, installed patios often range from £120–£200 per m² for quality Indian sandstone, and around £150–£250 per m² for porcelain. Natural stones such as limestone or slate can be £160–£280+ per m². Steps, drainage channels, lighting ducts and complex cuts will increase the overall budget.
Most patio projects take around 3–7 working days once work starts, depending on size and complexity. Smaller courtyards can be completed in 2–4 days, while larger patio extensions with seating areas, steps or retaining edges may take 1–2 weeks. Timescales are influenced by access for materials, the amount of excavation required, weather, and whether we’re also installing drainage, raised beds or new turf alongside the paving.
In many cases, a rear garden patio is permitted development and doesn’t need planning permission, provided it doesn’t significantly alter ground levels or create drainage issues. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, or where works affect shared spaces in flats. Southwark also expects surface water to drain appropriately, not onto the pavement or neighbouring land. We check the practical requirements and advise if any permissions or approvals may apply.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our patio installation workmanship, covering issues such as sinking caused by sub-base failure, loose edging, and problems arising from incorrect bedding or jointing. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or movement caused by external factors such as tree roots or third-party groundworks. We also pass on relevant manufacturer guarantees for porcelain and certain sealants where applicable, and we explain maintenance to keep finishes looking their best.
We install natural stone patios (including Indian sandstone, slate and limestone) as well as modern porcelain for a crisp, low-maintenance look. Design options include patio extensions, built-in seating areas, contrasting borders, steps, and drainage detailing for courtyard gardens. During the consultation we’ll discuss colour tones, slip resistance, joint style and laying patterns (such as linear or random coursed). We can also recommend finishes that suit warehouse conversions or Victorian terraces.
