Earl’s Court gardens often need smart level changes, especially around basement patios and raised terraces near Earl’s Court tube station. We design and build steps that look right with local brickwork and stone detailing, while improving day-to-day safety. Whether you’re updating a shared entrance route or creating access to a lawn, we tailor the rise, going and width to your space. We regularly work across SW5, including routes towards West Brompton and Kensington.
Many homes here are Victorian mansion conversions, period flats and garden square properties, where outdoor space can be compact and access is shared. We’re used to tight side returns, communal pathways and delicate boundaries, so our designs stay practical without feeling bulky. For rear gardens, we can create multi-level access from kitchen extensions down to patios or lawn areas. Our finishes are chosen to complement Victorian architecture and existing hard landscaping.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear design proposal, then handle excavation, sub-bases, drainage and precise setting-out. Every staircase is built for longevity, with frost-resistant materials and stable foundations suited to London conditions. You’ll get tidy workmanship, clear scheduling and straightforward communication from start to finish. Fine Landscaping is trusted locally because we combine premium detailing with a 10-year warranty and reliable aftercare.
In the steps & garden staircases Earl's Court area, access and parking can be restricted, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. Many properties have basement lightwells and older drainage runs, so we check falls and water management before building. We also consider party walls, shared paths and boundary lines common in mansion blocks and garden squares. For steps & garden staircases in Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, we work with local expectations on finish quality and site tidiness.

Costs vary with height changes, access, and finish. As a guide, simple sleeper steps often start around £900–£2,000. Brick or block-built steps are commonly £1,800–£4,500 depending on foundations and detailing. Natural stone steps typically range from £2,500–£7,500+ for premium materials and precise cutting. Spiral staircases and lighting/handrails add to the total, especially where bespoke metalwork is needed.
Most small step installations take 1–3 days once materials are on site. A full staircase with excavation, retaining edges, and drainage commonly takes 4–10 working days. Timescales depend on the number of risers, ground conditions, curing time for concrete, and how tight access is for moving materials through a property. Adding lighting integration, handrails, or stone cutting can extend the programme slightly.
In many cases, garden steps and small staircases are permitted development, particularly when they’re within the garden and don’t significantly alter the building’s exterior. However, Earl’s Court has many period properties and conversions where listed status, conservation considerations, or leaseholder rules may apply. We’ll flag likely constraints during the survey and can help you confirm requirements with the council or managing agent before work begins.
Yes. Our workmanship is covered by a 10-year warranty, giving you confidence that the structure is built correctly and will perform as intended. This covers issues such as movement caused by poor installation, unstable sub-bases, or incorrect setting-out of levels. Materials are also installed to manufacturers’ guidelines, and any product warranties are passed on where applicable. We’ll also advise on maintenance to keep finishes looking their best.
We offer natural stone steps for a premium, timeless look, plus brick steps that match Victorian façades, and block steps with crisp contemporary lines. Sleeper steps work well for softer, planted schemes, while spiral staircases can solve tight footprints for raised terraces or balconies. We can integrate low-glare lighting and fit handrails for safety. We’ll guide you through options based on style, slip resistance, maintenance, and budget.
