Earl's Court homes often need hard landscaping that manages rainfall without sacrificing style. We install permeable surfaces that help water soak through rather than pooling, ideal for properties around Earl's Court tube station and the SW5 streets near Philbeach Gardens. Whether it’s a front garden conversion or a rear courtyard refresh, we design paving that complements Victorian architecture while improving day-to-day practicality.
Our team regularly works across Kensington, West Brompton and Fulham, where Victorian mansion conversions, period flats and garden square properties bring tight access and high expectations. We’re used to working with shared entrances, basement lightwells and limited storage space, planning deliveries and waste removal accordingly. If you’re comparing options for permeable paving earl's court area, we’ll guide you to the right system for foot traffic, parking and planting layouts.
We start with a site survey, levels check and drainage plan, then recommend the best permeable build-up for your ground conditions. Every installation includes proper sub-base preparation, edge restraint detailing and drainage integration where needed, so performance matches the finish. Homeowners choose Fine Landscaping because we keep sites organised, communicate clearly, and stand behind our work with a 10-year warranty.
In SW5, access can be restricted and parking controls are common, so we schedule deliveries and collections to minimise disruption. Many properties have shallow front gardens and existing services near boundaries, so we locate utilities and set levels carefully. We also factor in how water currently runs towards basements and lightwells, specifying permeable systems and falls that protect entrances. If required, we align specifications with permeable paving in Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea expectations for SuDS-friendly surfacing.

Costs vary by material, access and groundwork. As a guide, permeable block paving often starts around £120–£180 per m², resin bound typically £140–£220 per m², and porous concrete can be higher depending on finish and reinforcement. Grass or gravel grids may be £80–£140 per m². Excavation depth, waste removal, edging and drainage integration can change totals significantly, especially on tight SW5 sites.
Most small courtyards take 2–4 days, while a typical front driveway is usually 4–8 days from excavation to final finish. Timescales depend on area size, sub-base depth, access for machinery, and whether we’re adding steps, retaining edges or channel details. Resin bound and porous concrete also require dry conditions for best results. We provide a clear programme before starting and keep disruption controlled.
In many cases, permeable surfacing for a front garden or driveway is permitted development because it allows water to drain through rather than into the public sewer. However, rules can change if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if you’re altering boundaries, levels or access. We’ll advise during the survey, confirm SuDS compliance, and help you check any Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea requirements before work begins.
We include a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our permeable paving installations. This covers issues caused by installation faults such as sub-base failure, poor levels, loose edging or premature movement, provided the surface is used as intended. Material warranties (for resin, blocks or grids) vary by manufacturer and are supplied in writing. We also explain aftercare to keep permeability performing well over time.
You can choose permeable block paving in contemporary or traditional colours, resin bound in a wide range of aggregates, porous concrete for a clean modern look, or grass/gravel grids for greener parking solutions. We also offer drainage integration, recessed covers and edging details to match period entrances. We’ll help you select finishes that suit Victorian mansion conversions and period flats, balancing aesthetics, slip resistance, maintenance and budget.
