If your garden needs a smarter, more usable surface, we build patios that look sharp and perform year-round. We regularly work around SE20, including near Penge High Street and Alexandra Recreation Ground, creating spaces for dining, lounging and entertaining. From compact courtyards to longer gardens, we plan layouts that suit how you actually live outdoors. Expect crisp edges, solid sub-bases and finishes that stay looking good.
Penge has a mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions, often with narrow side access and established boundaries. That calls for careful material handling, tidy storage and efficient scheduling. We also work across nearby Anerley, Crystal Palace and Beckenham, so we’re used to the varied garden levels and older paving we often uncover. Our recommendations balance style with practicality, including slip resistance, maintenance and drainage.
We start with a design consultation to agree the look, levels and how the patio connects to doors, lawns and borders. Then we excavate properly, install a compacted sub-base, set falls for drainage and lay your chosen finish with precision. You’ll get clear communication, respectful working practices and a clean site at the end of each day. Homeowners choose our patios contractors penge area service because the detailing is consistent and the build is built to last.
In the London Borough of Bromley, we often encounter mixed ground and older garden layers that need proper excavation and compaction. Parking and deliveries around Penge East station can be tight, so we plan drop-offs and waste removal to minimise disruption. Many gardens sit behind terraced homes with limited access, so we use efficient kit and protect pathways and thresholds. The result is a smoother build and a better-finished patio.

Costs vary by size, access and the finish you choose. As a guide, professionally installed patios in SE20 often range from about £120–£180 per m² for Indian sandstone, £140–£220 per m² for limestone or slate, and £160–£260 per m² for porcelain. Steps, drainage, seating areas and complex cuts can increase the total. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most patio projects take around 3–7 working days, depending on size and complexity. A small courtyard can be completed in a few days, while larger patio extensions with steps, seating areas or multiple levels may take 1–2 weeks. Timescales are affected by excavation depth, waste removal, access through terraced properties, and curing time for bedding and jointing. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule before work starts.
In many cases, a garden patio is permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re significantly altering ground levels, affecting drainage, working near boundaries, or if the property is listed or in a conservation area. Surface water management is important, and we’ll advise on falls and drainage solutions. We can also help you check any Bromley-specific requirements before you commit.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our patio installation workmanship, covering issues such as subsidence caused by inadequate base preparation, failed pointing due to poor application, or movement from incorrect bedding. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or problems caused by third-party alterations after completion. We also follow manufacturer guidance for the materials you choose, and we’ll explain care and maintenance to keep the finish looking its best.
Popular choices include porcelain for a clean, contemporary look and low maintenance, Indian sandstone for warm, natural variation, and slate or limestone for a refined finish. We can design patio extensions, built-in seating areas, steps and edging details to suit period gardens and modern conversions alike. During the design consultation, we’ll review samples, discuss slip resistance and upkeep, and plan a layout that works with your doors, planting and lighting.
