In SW9, sudden downpours can overwhelm older drainage and send water straight to the road. Our SuDS driveway solutions slow, store and filter runoff, helping protect your home and the street. Whether you’re near Stockwell tube station or walking routes by Stockwell Park, we design surfaces that cope with London weather. Expect a finish that’s practical, attractive and built for long-term performance.
Stockwell’s mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and post-war estates often comes with compact front gardens and tight access. We’re used to working around shared paths, basement lightwells and boundary walls, keeping levels correct to prevent water tracking towards the house. For homes between Brixton and Oval, we tailor layouts to suit parking needs without sacrificing planting space. Materials are chosen to complement period brickwork and modern façades alike.
We start with a site survey, levels check and drainage plan, then recommend the right SuDS build-up: permeable sub-base, edge restraints and a suitable surface. Installation is tidy and well-managed, with clear communication on deliveries, parking and neighbours. Every job is finished with a full handover and care guidance. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent specifications and a 10-year warranty.
In the suds compliant driveways Stockwell area, we often find clay-heavy ground and older drainage runs, so infiltration and storage need careful design. Streets around Max Roach Park can mean restricted access and limited on-site parking, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for typical terrace thresholds and basement steps, setting falls away from the property. Our designs align with expectations for suds compliant driveways in London Borough of Lambeth.

Costs vary with size, excavation depth, access and the SuDS specification. As a guide, gravel grids often start around £90–£140 per m², permeable block paving typically falls in the £120–£200 per m² range, and resin bound surfaces are commonly £110–£180 per m². Soakaway systems and drainage design can add £800–£3,000+ depending on testing, depth and connections.
Most projects take 3–7 working days from excavation to final finish, depending on area and complexity. Smaller frontages can be completed in 2–4 days, while larger driveways with new edging, steps or multiple parking bays may take 1–2 weeks. Timescales are affected by access in SW9, waste removal, curing time for resin, and any soakaway excavation or ground improvements needed.
In many cases, front garden hardstanding is permitted development if the surface is permeable or drains to a permeable area within your boundary. However, rules can change if your home is listed, in a conservation area, or if levels and boundaries are altered. We design to SuDS principles and check the London Borough of Lambeth guidance for your address, then advise on any applications before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering installation workmanship, including the sub-base build-up, levels, edge restraints and surface integrity when used as intended. It also covers defects caused by poor compaction or incorrect falls that lead to standing water. Normal wear, staining, misuse and damage from third-party works aren’t included. You’ll also receive maintenance guidance to keep permeability performing year after year.
Popular options include permeable block paving for a classic look, resin bound surfaces for a seamless finish, and gravel grids for a more natural, cost-effective driveway. We can also incorporate soakaway systems, channel details where needed, and planting strips to boost environmental benefits. Colour, edging and laying patterns are chosen to suit Victorian terraces and modern estates alike, with samples provided before you decide.
