Biggin Hill gardens often come with changing levels, long runs and exposed edges, especially around Aperfield and Berry's Green. We create steps and garden staircases that feel natural in the landscape and comfortable underfoot in all seasons. Whether you want a short set of sleeper steps or a statement stone staircase, we build for stability, drainage and day-to-day use. We’re also used to working near local points of interest such as Biggin Hill Airport and the RAF Memorial.
Homes in TN16 range from large detached houses and bungalows to characterful period properties, many with generous front approaches and terraced rear gardens. That variety calls for tailored detailing—wider treads for family use, softer risers for older knees, or crisp brickwork to match existing walls. In semi-rural plots around Cudham, we often integrate steps into planting beds and natural edges rather than hard, straight lines. The goal is always the same: safer movement and a layout that looks intentional.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, discuss routes, and confirm how water moves through the garden. You’ll receive clear options on materials, edging, handrails and lighting integration, plus a practical programme for the build. Our teams work tidily, protect lawns and paving, and finish with precise alignment and secure fixings. Local homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for dependable workmanship, transparent communication and a 10-year warranty on our installation.
Biggin Hill’s semi-rural plots can mean longer carries, tighter side access and variable ground—from firm chalky areas to softer made-up garden sections. We plan deliveries, parking and waste removal to keep disruption down, and we build sub-bases suited to the site conditions. Where properties sit higher or lower than the road, we design multi-level access that feels natural and meets safe step proportions. For clients seeking steps & garden staircases in London Borough of Bromley, we also consider boundary lines, visibility and any nearby trees or roots.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary with height changes, width, materials and whether you add lighting or handrails. As a guide, simple sleeper steps may start around £1,200–£2,500, while brick or block steps are often £2,000–£5,000. Natural stone steps and larger multi-flight staircases commonly fall between £4,000–£12,000+. Spiral staircases and complex detailing can increase budgets further after a site survey.
Most small step sets take 2–4 days, while larger staircases with multiple landings typically take 1–3 weeks. Timescales depend on excavation depth, ground conditions, access for materials, and curing time for concrete footings and bedding. Adding lighting integration, handrails, or matching brickwork can extend the programme slightly. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after measuring levels and agreeing the design.
In many cases, garden steps and staircases are permitted development, particularly when they’re within your boundary and don’t create major changes to ground levels near boundaries. However, restrictions can apply for listed buildings, conservation areas, or if you’re altering retaining structures significantly. We’ll advise during the site visit and can help you check any Bromley requirements before work starts, so there are no surprises.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as movement caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, poor bedding, or incorrect fixing methods. It’s designed to give peace of mind that your steps will remain stable, aligned and safe. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or normal wear to surface finishes. We also follow manufacturer guidance for any lighting or handrail components used.
We build natural stone steps (sandstone, granite, limestone), block steps with crisp edging, traditional brick steps to match period detailing, and sleeper steps for a softer garden look. For tighter spaces, we can design spiral staircases, and we regularly add lighting integration and handrails for safer use after dark. We’ll help you choose the right tread size, finish and colour based on your levels, style of home and how the route will be used.
