A well-laid stepping stone path adds structure without overpowering your planting. In Fulham, we create routes that suit compact courtyards and longer gardens alike, from Fulham Broadway homes to quieter streets near Parsons Green. Whether you want a straight run to the patio or a gentle curve to the shed, we set each step for comfort and safety. Finishes can be crisp and contemporary or softly natural, depending on your style.
Our team regularly works across SW6, where Victorian terraces, mansion flats and modern riverside apartments often need smart access solutions with minimal disruption. Side returns can be narrow and shared access is common, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Many gardens also mix lawn, borders and paved seating areas, making stepping stones a great way to connect zones without laying a full path. We design to complement existing brickwork, stone copings and planting schemes.
We start with a site visit to assess levels, drainage and the best walking line, then provide a clear specification and itemised quote. Installation includes a stable sub-base, accurate spacing, and careful bedding so stones sit flat and don’t rock. We keep the site tidy, protect surfaces, and agree working hours that suit neighbours. Homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for reliable scheduling, premium materials, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
In the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, gardens often sit on mixed made ground with pockets of clay, so we build a sub-base that resists movement and puddling. Access can be restricted near mansion blocks and terraced rows, so we use smaller loads and staged deliveries where needed. We also consider parking controls and waste collection rules to keep the job running smoothly. The result is stepping stone paths Fulham area homeowners can enjoy year-round.

Costs vary by material, ground preparation and the number of stones. As a guide, simple gravel-set concrete or basic stone steppers often start around £90–£140 per m². Premium natural stone, slate or porcelain steppers with a full sub-base and precise bedding are commonly £160–£280 per m². Adding lighting, drainage improvements or complex curves can increase the budget. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most installations take 1–3 days, depending on length, access and whether we’re setting into lawn, gravel or a new sub-base. A short run of steppers in an existing lawn can often be completed in a day, while porcelain or slate steppers with edging, lighting and ground re-levelling may take longer. Weather, spoil removal and delivery restrictions around SW6 can also affect timings. We confirm a schedule before we start.
In most cases, garden paths are permitted development and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can change if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if works affect drainage to the public highway. Using permeable gravel surrounds or ensuring water drains to your garden is usually straightforward, and we design with that in mind. We’ll flag any potential issues and help you check requirements for your specific address.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as movement caused by inadequate base preparation, rocking stones, or joint failures from poor bedding. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or problems caused by third-party alterations after completion. We also use quality materials from trusted suppliers and follow best-practice installation methods. If anything concerns you after handover, we respond quickly and put it right.
We offer natural stone steppers for a timeless look, porcelain steppers for crisp modern lines, and slate stepping stones for rich colour and texture. Sandstone steppers are popular for warmer tones that suit traditional gardens. Layout options include straight or curved routes, with grass between stones for a softer feel or gravel surrounds for a cleaner, low-maintenance finish. We’ll help you choose sizes, spacing and finishes that match your paving, planting and how you use the garden.
