From Tate Britain to Pimlico tube station, SW1 properties deserve paving that looks refined and performs year-round. We install and repair patios, pathways and driveway paving with a focus on drainage, clean detailing and durability. Whether you want a smart entrance for a mansion block or a quiet courtyard upgrade, we tailor the layout to your space. Expect tidy working practices and a finish that complements Pimlico’s garden squares and river views.
Pimlico features Regency townhouses, mansion blocks and period conversions, often with compact front gardens, lightwells and shared access. We’re used to working around steps, railings, basement entrances and tight side returns, keeping levels safe and thresholds neat. For clients across Westminster, Victoria and Chelsea, we match paving styles to existing brickwork, stucco façades and traditional ironwork. Our recommendations balance aesthetics with slip resistance and easy maintenance.
Our process starts with a site visit, measured design and clear specification for sub-base, edging and falls. We excavate properly, install a strong MOT Type 1 foundation, and finish joints and cuts with care for a premium look. You’ll get transparent scheduling, protection for surrounding planting, and thorough clean-down on completion. Local homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, responsive communication and a 10-year warranty.
Working in the City of Westminster often means controlled parking, narrow access and strict consideration for neighbours. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to suit SW1 streets and mansion block management rules. Many Pimlico gardens sit close to basements and lightwells, so we pay close attention to levels, drainage and waterproofing interfaces. If required, we can advise on permeable driveway solutions and surface water management.

Costs vary by material, access and groundwork. As a guide in Pimlico, block paving typically starts around £90–£140 per m² installed, while natural stone is often £120–£200+ per m². Porcelain paving commonly falls between £110–£190 per m². Driveway paving may cost more where deeper excavation, drainage channels or permeable build-ups are needed. Repairs are usually priced by area and complexity.
Most patio paving projects take around 3–7 working days, depending on size, cutting detail and steps or retaining edges. Driveway paving is often 5–10 working days, especially if we’re forming new falls, installing drainage or replacing a weak sub-base. Timescales can increase with restricted access near mansion blocks, parking constraints in SW1, or wet weather affecting ground preparation and jointing.
Many patio and pathway projects are permitted development, but driveways can trigger rules around surface water drainage. If you’re creating or replacing a front garden driveway, permeable paving or drainage to a suitable soakaway is often required to avoid planning issues. Conservation considerations can also apply near period properties. We’ll check the basics with you, advise on compliant build-ups, and flag when formal permission may be needed.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our paving installations, covering issues such as sinking caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, loose edging, and jointing failures under normal use. Materials are also covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable (for example, porcelain slabs). The warranty assumes correct use and routine care, and excludes damage from ground movement beyond our control or heavy loads not specified at design stage.
Popular choices include tumbled block paving for a traditional look, sawn sandstone or limestone for refined patios, and porcelain paving for a crisp, low-maintenance finish. We can design herringbone or basketweave driveways, setts for borders, and neat soldier-course edging to suit Regency façades. We’ll bring samples, discuss slip resistance and colour tones, and recommend jointing and sealing options to match your maintenance preferences.
