Across SE15 you’ll find Victorian terraces with small front gardens, Georgian houses with tighter access, and converted warehouses needing clean, contemporary finishes. We tailor levels, edging and drainage details to suit each property style and protect thresholds and air bricks. In streets around Nunhead and East Dulwich, we often work around mature trees and existing boundary walls. Our solutions balance kerb appeal with practical water management.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a clear drainage plan, then recommend the best permeable build-up for your budget. Every installation is laid by our experienced team with tidy working practices and careful waste removal. You’ll get straightforward communication, transparent options, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty. Homeowners choose us for consistent finishes, reliable scheduling, and drainage that performs year after year.

Costs depend on size, excavation depth, access, and the chosen surface. As a guide in Peckham, permeable block paving often starts around £120–£180 per m², resin bound around £110–£170 per m², and gravel grids around £70–£120 per m². Soakaways, drainage design and waste removal can add £800–£3,000+ depending on requirements. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a survey.
Most projects take 3–7 working days for a typical front driveway, including excavation, sub-base, and laying the permeable surface. Larger areas, complex level changes, steps, or new soakaway systems can extend this to 1–2 weeks. Timescales also depend on access for machinery, weather, and curing time for resin bound finishes. We agree a schedule in advance and keep disruption to a minimum.
In many cases, replacing a front garden with a permeable surface is permitted development, provided water drains within your property and doesn’t run to the highway. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, or if you’re altering boundary walls and levels. We check the key requirements for Southwark, advise on compliant construction, and can help you prepare information if an application or confirmation is needed.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our SuDS compliant driveway installations. This covers issues caused by installation faults, such as settlement from inadequate sub-base preparation, edge restraint failures, or poor drainage detailing. Materials are also covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable (for example, resin and paving products). To keep performance high, we’ll advise on simple maintenance like sweeping, occasional pressure washing, and keeping joints permeable.
Popular choices include permeable block paving in traditional colours for Victorian terraces, resin bound stone for a smooth modern look, and gravel grids for a natural finish with strong load support. We can incorporate contrasting borders, soldier courses, recessed manhole covers and subtle falls to guide water into the permeable build-up. After a site survey, we’ll recommend the best option based on aesthetics, parking needs, shade, and drainage performance.
