Fulham gardens often need clever level changes, especially near Parsons Green and along the riverside. We create steps and garden staircases that feel like part of the landscape—whether you’re improving access from a patio or creating a statement approach. From clean-lined contemporary flights to characterful brickwork, we tailor the build to your home and layout. We regularly work close to Fulham Broadway and Bishops Park, so we understand the local expectations for finish and durability.
Properties in SW6 range from Victorian terraces and mansion flats to modern riverside apartments, each with different access challenges. Period homes often benefit from sympathetic brick steps and traditional proportions, while newer builds suit sleek natural stone with integrated lighting. Basement-level gardens and raised patios are common, making multi-level access a practical priority. Our team measures carefully and designs for comfortable riser heights, secure landings and safe edges.
We start with a site visit, levels survey and design options, then confirm materials, drainage and lighting routes before work begins. Every build is set on a properly prepared sub-base, with solid haunching and consistent falls to manage water. You’ll get clear scheduling, protection for existing paving and planting, and a tidy handover. Local homeowners choose Fine Landscaping for dependable communication, premium workmanship and a 10-year warranty.

We also factor in typical London clay conditions and ensure robust foundations and drainage to reduce heave and settlement. Working within the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, we keep an eye on conservation considerations and boundary details. Our finishes suit local styles—from Victorian brickwork to crisp stone for riverside apartments.

Costs vary with height change, width, foundations, and finishes. As a guide, simple sleeper or block steps often start around £900–£2,500, while brick steps with detailing are commonly £1,800–£4,500. Natural stone steps typically range from £2,500–£8,000+ depending on stone type and coping. Lighting integration and handrails usually add £300–£2,000. We provide a site-specific quote after measuring levels.
Most small step installations take 1–3 days, assuming straightforward access and minimal excavation. More complex staircases with multiple landings, retaining edges, lighting integration, or bespoke stone cutting usually take 4–10 working days. Timescales can change due to curing time for concrete bases, weather, and restricted access for materials near busy streets. We’ll confirm a programme before starting and keep disruption as low as possible.
Many garden steps are permitted development, especially when they’re within your boundary and don’t significantly alter the street-facing elevation. However, rules can differ for listed buildings, conservation areas, or where works affect a front garden, boundary walls, or drainage. We’ll flag likely constraints during the survey and can help you check requirements with the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. If approvals are needed, we’ll build to the agreed specification.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering workmanship and installation integrity, including sub-base preparation, bedding, and structural stability of the steps and landings. It’s designed to protect you against issues such as movement caused by poor construction or incorrect build-up. Materials are covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable, and we’ll advise on care for stone and brick to keep them looking their best. Warranty terms are confirmed in writing with your quote.
We build natural stone steps (sandstone, limestone, granite), brick steps to match Victorian terraces, robust block steps with paving caps, and sleeper steps for a warm, garden-led look. For tighter footprints, we can design compact arrangements and, where suitable, spiral staircases. Popular upgrades include recessed LED step lights, contrasting nosings, and powder-coated or stainless handrails. We’ll help you choose based on style, slip resistance, maintenance, and budget.
