Canary Wharf’s hard landscaping needs to cope with intense downpours and limited runoff routes. Our SuDS compliant driveway solutions use permeable paving, resin bound surfacing and engineered sub-bases to help water soak through rather than rush to the drains. We regularly work around One Canada Square and Crossrail Place where access, loading times and finish quality matter. The result is a driveway or parking bay that performs in wet weather and looks premium.
Property styles across E14 are dominated by modern high-rise apartments, waterfront developments and penthouses, often with controlled entrances and strict management requirements. We tailor specifications for podium levels, basement car parks, private forecourts and small frontage parking in Isle of Dogs and Poplar. Where space is tight, gravel grids and slimline drainage design can deliver SuDS performance without sacrificing usable area. Every design is chosen to complement contemporary architecture and clean lines.
We start with a site visit to assess levels, existing drainage, and where water can safely disperse. You’ll receive a clear proposal covering permeable build-ups, soakaway options and planning compliance checks, plus a realistic programme that respects building rules and neighbours. Our team protects communal areas, keeps noise and dust controlled, and leaves the site clean each day. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent communication and long-lasting finishes.
We understand the practicalities of working in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, including access control, timed deliveries and limited on-street parking. Ground conditions can vary across reclaimed dockland areas, so we design sub-bases and soakaways to suit local infiltration and levels. For waterfront blocks and managed estates, we coordinate with building management and follow site protocols. If you’re in Limehouse or near the Museum of London Docklands, we’ll plan logistics to keep disruption low.

Costs vary by access, excavation depth and the SuDS solution required. As a guide, resin bound systems often start from around £120–£180 per m², while permeable block paving is commonly £100–£160 per m². Gravel grids can be £60–£110 per m². Soakaways, drainage design and disposal can add £800–£3,500+ depending on complexity and permissions.
Most projects take 3–7 working days, depending on size, access restrictions and the amount of excavation needed. Resin bound installations can be quicker once the base is prepared, while permeable block paving may take longer due to laying and edging details. In Canary Wharf developments, timed deliveries, lift/parking arrangements and approvals from building management can extend the programme slightly.
Often, front garden and driveway works are permitted development if the surface is permeable or drains to a permeable area within your property. If you’re proposing impermeable surfacing, changes to levels affecting drainage, or work within a restricted setting, permission may be required. We check the SuDS requirements, advise on compliant materials, and can help you prepare the information needed for Tower Hamlets processes.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our SuDS compliant driveway installations. This covers issues arising from installation defects such as base failure, poor compaction, incorrect falls or edging movement, subject to normal use and maintenance. Materials may also carry manufacturer warranties, depending on the product chosen. We’ll explain what’s covered in writing and how to keep the surface performing well.
Popular options include permeable block paving in contemporary colours, resin bound aggregate blends for a smooth finish, and gravel grids for a clean, low-maintenance look. We can integrate soakaway systems, channel drains where appropriate, and edging details to match modern façades. For the suds compliant driveways canary wharf area, we’ll recommend finishes that suit building management rules, slip resistance needs and long-term durability.
