Bayswater’s mix of busy streets and elegant garden squares calls for paving that performs as well as it looks. Our permeable surfaces let rainwater soak through instead of pooling around entrances and basements. Whether you’re near Queensway or walking distance from Hyde Park, we design paving that complements the local streetscape while improving day-to-day practicality. Expect a clean finish, tidy edges and drainage you can rely on.
We regularly work across the permeable paving Bayswater area, including Paddington and Kensington, where access and detailing matter. Many homes here are stucco townhouses, mansion conversions and period flats, often with compact front gardens and shared approaches. We tailor sub-bases, thresholds and falls to suit older brickwork, lightwells and existing steps. The result is a surface that respects heritage features while meeting modern drainage needs.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear recommendation on the best permeable build-up. Our team installs the correct permeable sub-base, integrates drainage where needed, and finishes with crisp lines and durable edging. You’ll receive written specifications, care guidance and a workmanship warranty for peace of mind. Homeowners choose us for punctual scheduling, considerate working practices and consistent quality across every detail.
Working in Bayswater means planning for tight access, controlled parking and busy delivery routes around W2. Ground conditions can vary, so we build the correct permeable sub-base depth and stabilisation for long-term performance. We also consider basement levels, lightwells and the need to keep water away from façades. For permeable paving in City of Westminster, we align designs with SuDS expectations and practical site constraints.

Costs vary by material, excavation depth and access. As a guide in Bayswater, permeable block paving often ranges from £110–£170 per m², resin bound from £120–£190 per m², and gravel or grass grids from £70–£130 per m². Steps, edging, waste removal and drainage detailing can affect totals. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit in W2.
Most projects take 2–5 days, depending on size and complexity. A small front garden path may be completed in 1–2 days, while a full driveway with excavation, sub-base build-up and edging commonly takes 3–5 days. Timescales can extend if access is restricted, if we need to adjust levels around steps or lightwells, or if poor ground requires additional stabilisation.
In many cases, permeable paving is permitted development because it allows water to drain naturally rather than running to the street. However, rules can change if you’re in a conservation area, altering boundary walls, or working near listed features common around Bayswater. We’ll advise on SuDS compliance, check whether any permissions are likely, and help you keep the design within City of Westminster requirements.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our permeable paving installations. This covers issues arising from installation, such as sub-base failure, significant settlement due to poor construction, or edging movement where we’ve supplied and fitted it. Materials may also carry manufacturer warranties (for example, resin systems), depending on the product chosen. We also explain maintenance to help your surface perform well long-term.
We offer permeable block paving in contemporary and heritage colours, resin bound finishes for a seamless look, porous concrete for robust utility areas, and grass or gravel grids for greener, softer schemes. We’ll help you choose based on drainage performance, slip resistance, maintenance and how it suits stucco frontages and period details. Borders, edgings and laying patterns are selected to match your property style and approach.
