Uneven lawns and sloping plots around the Lee Green crossroads can make gardens awkward to use, especially in wet weather. We design and build steps that feel solid underfoot and look like they belong with your landscaping. Whether you’re improving access from the patio or creating a route to a raised terrace, we tailor each staircase to the space. We regularly work across SE12, including routes near Lee station and Manor House Gardens.
Lee Green’s mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis and 1930s houses often comes with level changes, narrow side returns and compact rear gardens. Our designs respect period brickwork while adding modern performance, drainage and slip resistance. If your garden sits higher than the kitchen extension or drops away at the boundary, we can create clean, comfortable multi-level access. Homeowners in the steps & garden staircases lee green area often ask for solutions that look premium without feeling over-designed.
We start with a site visit to measure rises, treads and landing space, then propose materials and a layout that meets safe step geometry. Our team handles excavation, sub-base, drainage, edging and tidy finishing, with clear communication throughout. Every build is installed to high standards and backed by a 10-year workmanship warranty for peace of mind. With our base just 30 minutes away, local clients value quick follow-ups and reliable scheduling.
In the London Borough of Lewisham, we often encounter heavy clay pockets and water run-off that can undermine poorly built steps. We design with robust sub-bases, falls and drainage to keep treads stable year-round. Access can be tight on residential streets around Leegate Shopping Centre, so we plan deliveries, parking and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also match brick tones and coping styles commonly seen in SE12 homes.

Costs vary with height change, width, materials and whether you add lighting or handrails. As a guide, simple sleeper steps often start from around £900–£1,800, while brick or block steps commonly fall between £1,800–£4,000. Natural stone steps and larger multi-level staircases are typically £3,500–£9,000+. We’ll confirm a tailored range after measuring levels and access in SE12.
Most small to mid-sized garden step projects take 2–5 days on site, depending on excavation, waste removal and curing times for mortar or concrete. Larger staircases with landings, retaining edges, lighting integration or handrails typically take 1–2 weeks. Timescales are influenced by access for materials, the number of steps, ground conditions and any drainage adjustments needed to keep the area dry.
In many cases, garden steps are permitted development and don’t require planning permission, especially when they’re within your boundary and don’t significantly alter street-facing elevations. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, or if works affect shared boundaries, drainage, or public-facing front gardens. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and can advise on checks with the London Borough of Lewisham where needed.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our steps and garden staircases, covering installation quality, stability and structural integrity when used normally. This includes issues such as movement caused by poor sub-base preparation or incorrect laying. Materials are also covered by relevant manufacturer guarantees where applicable (for example, certain stone or lighting components). We’ll explain what’s included and how to care for surfaces to keep them looking their best.
We build natural stone steps for a premium finish, brick steps to match period homes, and block steps for clean, modern lines. Sleeper steps are popular for softer, landscaped looks, and we can create spiral staircases where space is tight. Options include integrated step lighting, handrails, landings and multi-level access routes. We’ll help you choose based on style, slip resistance, maintenance and how the steps connect patios and pathways.
