From smart front driveways to family patios, we install paving built to last in SE23. Our team regularly works near Honor Oak Park station and up towards One Tree Hill, where levels and drainage need careful planning. Whether you want block paving for kerb appeal or porcelain for a clean, modern look, we tailor the build to your garden and access. Repairs and re-laying are also available when existing paving has sunk or loosened.
Honor Oak’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and 1930s semis often have compact front gardens, shared boundaries and narrow side access. We design paving that maximises usable space without looking cramped, and we match edging and detailing to period features. For homes around Forest Hill and Brockley, we can integrate steps, retaining edges and subtle lighting channels where needed. The result is a practical surface that complements the property rather than overpowering it.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check the sub-base and agree the finish, pattern and drainage approach. Every job includes proper excavation, MOT Type 1 base, correct falls and professional jointing for a stable surface. You’ll get a written specification, staged updates, and a clean handover with aftercare advice. Local homeowners choose us for consistent quality, honest guidance and workmanship backed by warranty.
As paving contractors in London Borough of Lewisham, we factor in sloping plots and variable ground conditions common around Honor Oak. Parking and access can be tight on residential roads, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and work hours to minimise disruption. We also consider drainage rules for front gardens and specify permeable options where appropriate. Our designs suit the area’s period streetscapes while staying practical for everyday use.

Costs vary by material, access and groundwork. As a guide in Honor Oak, block paving is often £90–£140 per m², natural stone £120–£200 per m², and porcelain £110–£190 per m², including a proper sub-base. Driveways can cost more if you need extra excavation, drainage channels or retaining edges on slopes. Repairs are usually priced by area and cause, from a few hundred pounds upward.
Most patio paving projects take around 3–7 working days, depending on size, cutting detail and whether steps or edging are included. Driveway paving is commonly 5–10 working days, especially if we’re installing drainage, permeable layers or dealing with significant level changes. Timescales can extend with restricted access, poor existing sub-bases, or wet weather. We confirm a realistic programme after the site survey.
Many patios and garden paths are permitted development, but driveways can be different if you’re changing levels, adding walls, or managing surface water to the public drain. In Lewisham, front-garden paving typically needs compliant drainage, often via permeable paving or directing runoff to a soakaway within your property. We’ll advise on the best approach and flag any situations where permission or additional checks may be required.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our paving installations, covering issues such as sub-base failure, settlement caused by installation defects, and jointing problems under normal use. Materials are also covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable, and we’ll explain care requirements to keep finishes looking their best. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, vehicle overloading beyond the design, or problems caused by third-party alterations.
For period homes, tumbled block paving, charcoal borders and herringbone patterns are popular for driveways and paths. Natural sandstone and granite setts suit traditional gardens, while porcelain paving works well for low-maintenance patios with a contemporary feel. We can also create mixed-width layouts, contrasting edging, and step details for sloping plots. We’ll bring samples, discuss slip resistance and maintenance, then design a finish that suits your home and budget.
