New Malden homeowners often want a driveway that stays usable after heavy rain and still complements the street scene. Our solutions are designed for real-life conditions around New Malden High Street and nearby parks such as Beverley Park. We create attractive, hard-wearing surfaces that let water pass through rather than pooling on top. The result is a safer entrance, less mess tracked indoors, and a finish that lifts your frontage.
From 1930s semis along residential roads to Edwardian houses and modern apartments, we tailor the build-up to the property and how you use the space. We regularly work across the permeable paving New Malden area, including Raynes Park, Motspur Park and Worcester Park. Whether you need extra parking, a wider crossover, or a neater path to the front door, we design for everyday practicality. Colours, edging and patterns are chosen to suit brickwork, render and boundary walls.
We start with a site visit, levels check and a clear drainage plan, then recommend the best permeable system for your budget. Our installations include proper sub-base preparation, compaction and drainage integration to meet SuDS compliance where required. Work is scheduled to minimise disruption, with tidy handover and aftercare guidance. Local homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent communication and a finish that lasts.
In KT3 we often encounter mixed ground conditions and tight access, especially on streets with on-road parking. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to keep things smooth for neighbours. Our designs also consider typical crossover widths and water run-off routes so the paving performs in real storms. If council guidance affects the frontage, we advise on a compliant approach for permeable paving in Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.

Costs vary by material, excavation depth, access and the amount of groundworks needed. As a guide, permeable block paving often starts around £90–£140 per m², resin bound typically £110–£170 per m², and grid systems for gravel/grass can be £70–£120 per m². Edging, steps, drainage details and waste removal can affect totals. We provide a site-specific written estimate after measuring and checking levels.
Most driveways and front garden projects take 3–7 working days, depending on size and complexity. Smaller paths or parking bays can be completed in 1–3 days, while larger areas with significant excavation, retaining edges or multiple levels may take 1–2 weeks. Weather, curing times (especially for porous concrete), and access for machinery also influence the programme. We confirm a realistic schedule before starting.
In many cases, a new or replacement driveway is permitted development if the surface is permeable or drains to a permeable area within your boundary. That’s why SuDS-compliant systems are so popular. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, or if you’re altering access/kerbs. We’ll flag any likely constraints, help you choose a compliant build-up, and advise if you should check with the council before work begins.
Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on our permeable paving installations, covering workmanship and installation-related issues such as sub-base failure, settlement caused by poor compaction, and edging movement (subject to fair use). Material warranties may also apply depending on the chosen product and manufacturer. The warranty is supported by clear aftercare guidance, including cleaning and weed-prevention tips, so your surface keeps performing and looking its best.
We offer permeable block paving in a range of colours and laying patterns, resin bound finishes for a smooth contemporary look, porous concrete for robust performance, plus grass grids and gravel grids for a greener, softer appearance. We can add contrasting borders, kerb edging and neat thresholds to match your property. During the survey we’ll show samples, discuss slip resistance and maintenance, and recommend the best option for your layout and drainage needs.
