We design and construct dropped kerbs and crossovers that meet council standards and suit your frontage. From initial survey to reinstatement of footway areas, we manage the details. Our team works across SW16 with minimal disruption to neighbours and pedestrians.
Pollards Hill is a quiet residential area with excellent amenities and green space, and the housing stock often includes 1930s semis, post-war housing and maisonettes. These properties can have narrow front gardens, shared access points, or existing hardstanding that needs upgrading. We plan levels carefully to protect thresholds and prevent water tracking towards the house. Whether you’re extending an existing drive or creating a new one, we tailor the build to your plot.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements, and clear guidance on council applications and permissions. We then schedule the works, install compliant construction layers, and integrate drainage where required. All surfaces are available, and we finish with clean edges, neat reinstatement, and a thorough handover. Homeowners choose us for reliable planning support, transparent communication, and a 10-year workmanship warranty.
We’re on-site in Pollards Hill within around five minutes from our Norbury base, so surveys and follow-ups are quick.

Costs vary with frontage width, excavation depth, drainage needs and the surface finish. As a guide, many homeowners in SW16 budget from around £2,500–£6,500 for crossover construction and associated reinstatement. Wider crossovers, complex levels, or premium finishes can take projects to £7,500–£12,000+. Council fees and any required inspections are typically additional; we’ll explain these clearly after a site survey.
On-site construction is often completed in 2–5 working days, depending on width, existing materials, and whether drainage channels or soakaways are required. If you’re also building or extending the driveway surface, allow a little longer for preparation and curing times. The biggest variable is the council process and scheduling of any inspections, which can add several weeks. We provide a realistic programme before work starts.
A dropped kerb and vehicle crossover usually requires council approval because it alters the footway and kerb line. Many driveway surfaces at the front of a home can be permitted development, but rules apply around drainage, impermeable materials, and highway safety. We check access visibility, levels, and surface water requirements, then support your application and liaise as needed. If permissions are required, we’ll guide you through them before any work begins.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our crossover construction, covering issues caused by installation defects such as sub-base failure, poor edge restraint, or settlement from incorrect build-up. It also includes workmanship on associated reinstatement and drainage elements we install. Normal wear, accidental damage, and problems caused by third-party alterations aren’t covered. We’ll explain the warranty terms in writing and advise on aftercare to keep your surface performing well.
We build crossovers and drive entrances using a range of finishes, including tarmac, block paving, resin-bound surfacing, and gravel with stabilisation grids. Design options include contrasting borders, charcoal edging, permeable block systems, and discreet drainage channels. We’ll recommend the best choice based on your property style, slope, and how you use the space. Our aim is a practical entrance that looks right with your home and meets compliance requirements.
