Natural limestone patio and landscaped garden in Lewisham, South East London.

PAVING & PATIOS

Paving and Patios in South London

Well-planned patios, pathways and paved areas designed around your home, garden and everyday use.

Paving designed as part of the whole garden

A successful patio or pathway should do more than provide a hard surface. Its proportions, direction, materials and relationship with the house influence how the entire outdoor space feels and functions.

Brick Stone Projects plans paving around access, seating, circulation, changes in level, drainage and the architectural character of the property. Whether the project forms part of a complete garden transformation or focuses on one defined area, the aim is a durable and considered result.

Paving applications

Materials chosen for the property and setting

Material selection considers appearance, intended use, surrounding brickwork and the character of the garden.

DETAILS MATTER

Paving that connects with the architecture

The best paving choices respond to the materials and proportions already present at the property. In Dulwich, Yorkstone and Victorian mosaic detailing created an entrance that complements the traditional façade. In Lewisham, limestone and red clay pavers defined separate areas while remaining part of one coordinated garden design.

What sits beneath the finish matters too

01. Site review

We review access, existing levels, intended use and how the paved area connects with the property.

02. Ground preparation

Excavation and preparation are planned according to the selected surface and project conditions.

03. Levels and drainage

Falls, transitions and drainage are considered so the finished surface works as part of the wider garden.

04. Installation and finishing

The paving, edging, steps and adjoining details are installed to create a coordinated result.
