Norbury homeowners often need a driveway that handles heavy rain without sending water onto the pavement. Our SuDS solutions are designed for real-life use—daily parking, bin access and safe pedestrian routes. Whether you’re near Norbury station or along Norbury High Street, we create permeable surfaces that manage runoff at source. The result is a cleaner frontage and fewer drainage headaches.
As this is our home base, we know the SW16 streets and the mix of Edwardian houses, 1930s semis and Victorian conversions. Many plots have limited front-garden depth, shared access, or sloping approaches that need careful levels and falls. We regularly work across Thornton Heath, Streatham Vale and Pollards Hill, tailoring layouts to suit kerb lines and existing thresholds. Every design balances parking practicality with proper water management.
We start with a site survey, check levels, and propose a drainage design that meets SuDS guidance. You’ll get clear options for permeable paving, resin bound systems, gravel grids and soakaway systems, with transparent specifications. Our team protects your property, keeps the site tidy, and communicates throughout the build. Local homeowners choose us for workmanship you can rely on and a straightforward 10-year warranty.
Across Norbury and the wider London Borough of Croydon, front gardens can have compact footprints and variable ground conditions. We design falls carefully to avoid water tracking toward door thresholds, and we plan sub-bases to suit clay-heavy or mixed soils where soakaway performance matters. Parking pressure around SW16 also means entrances must be robust and easy to use. We handle access, waste removal and compliance checks so the build runs smoothly.

Costs vary by size, excavation depth and the SuDS solution chosen. As a guide, gravel grid systems often start around £80–£130 per m², permeable block paving is typically £120–£200 per m², and resin bound surfaces are commonly £140–£220 per m². If a soakaway system or additional drainage design is needed, allow an extra £900–£2,500+ depending on conditions and access.
Most installations take 3–7 working days for an average front garden, including excavation, sub-base, edging and the finished surface. Larger driveways, difficult access, or extra works such as a soakaway system, kerb alterations or steps can extend this to 1–2 weeks. Weather also affects resin and jointing times. We provide a realistic schedule before starting and keep you updated day by day.
In many cases, a new or replacement driveway is permitted development if you use a permeable surface or direct runoff to a permeable area within your boundary. However, rules can change depending on drainage arrangements, listed buildings, conservation considerations, and any alterations to the pavement crossover. We check the requirements for your property, confirm the SuDS approach, and advise if an application or council approval is likely to be needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering workmanship on the driveway build, including sub-base preparation, levels and installation of the chosen permeable system. It also covers issues such as sinking caused by inadequate compaction or incorrect construction. Normal wear, accidental damage, and problems caused by third-party works or blocked maintenance points aren’t included. We’ll explain care requirements and provide aftercare guidance to keep drainage performing as designed.
Popular options include permeable block paving in contemporary or traditional colours, resin bound surfaces with natural aggregates, and gravel grids for a softer, low-maintenance look. We can also incorporate soakaway systems, channel details where appropriate, and edging that suits period homes. For suds compliant driveways norbury area properties, we help you choose finishes based on parking loads, slip resistance, maintenance, and how the design complements brickwork and boundary walls.
