Benefits of Adding a Patio to Your Garden

A well-designed patio offers several advantages:

Extended Living Space: It provides an outdoor area where you can spend time with family and friends, effectively expanding your home’s living space.

Versatility: Patios can serve multiple purposes, from hosting barbecues to serving as a peaceful spot for reading or enjoying a cup of tea.

Low Maintenance: Compared to lawns or flowerbeds, patios require minimal upkeep, freeing up your time for other activities.

Increased Property Value: A stylish patio can enhance your property’s appeal, potentially increasing its market value.

Our Patio Installation Process

We follow a thorough process to ensure your patio is built to the highest standards:

1. Consultation and Design

   We start by discussing your ideas and preferences. Our team assesses your garden to determine the best location and size for your patio. We’ll help you choose materials and designs that match your home’s style and your budget.

2. Site Preparation

   Before construction begins, we prepare the site by clearing the area and ensuring the ground is suitable. This may involve levelling the ground or improving drainage to prevent water pooling.

3. Foundation and Base Layer

   A strong foundation is essential for a durable patio. We lay a base layer of hardcore or gravel, compacted to create a stable surface. This step helps prevent shifting or sinking over time.

4. Laying the Paving Materials

   With the base prepared, we carefully lay the chosen paving materials. Our team pays close attention to alignment and spacing, creating a neat and attractive finish. We can lay the paving in various patterns to add visual interest.

5. Finishing Touches

   After the paving is laid, we fill the joints with mortar or sand to lock the materials in place. We also add any desired features, such as edging stones or steps, to complete the look.

6. Cleanup and Inspection

   Once the installation is complete, we tidy up the site, removing any debris. We conduct a final inspection to ensure everything meets our high standards and that you’re satisfied with the result.

Customising Your Patio

Your patio should reflect your personal style and fit seamlessly with your garden. We offer various customisation options:

Shapes and Sizes: Patios can be designed in different shapes—square, rectangular, circular, or free-form—to suit your space.

Materials: Choose from a range of materials, including natural stone, concrete slabs, brick, or composite decking.

Colours and Textures: Select colours and textures that complement your home’s exterior and garden design.

Features: Incorporate elements like built-in seating, planters, or lighting to enhance functionality and ambience.

Integrating Patios with Fencing

A patio works beautifully alongside our garden fencing services. Together, they create a cohesive outdoor environment that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Fencing provides privacy and security, while a patio offers a comfortable space to enjoy your garden. By coordinating the style and materials of your fence and patio, we can create a harmonious look that enhances your property’s overall appeal.

Quality Materials and Workmanship

We are committed to using high-quality materials to ensure your patio is durable and long-lasting. Our skilled craftsmen take pride in their work, paying attention to every detail from the foundation to the final finishes. We follow best practices for installation, including proper drainage and levelling, to prevent issues like water pooling or uneven surfaces.

Environmental Considerations

We care about the environment and strive to minimise our impact:

Sustainable Materials: We source materials responsibly, using suppliers who prioritise sustainability.

Waste Reduction: We recycle or repurpose waste materials whenever possible.

Garden Preservation: During installation, we take care to protect existing plants and trees in your garden.

Do I need planning permission to install a patio?

In most cases, you don’t need planning permission for a patio at ground level. However, if your property is a listed building or in a conservation area, there may be restrictions. We can help you understand any regulations that apply.

How long will my patio last?

With proper installation and maintenance, a patio can last for many years. The lifespan depends on the materials used and the level of care it receives. We use high-quality materials to ensure durability.

Can you help with patio design ideas?

Absolutely. Our team has experience with a wide range of designs and can offer suggestions based on your preferences and garden layout.

How do I prevent my patio from becoming slippery?

Regular cleaning helps prevent the build-up of algae or moss, which can make surfaces slippery. We can also recommend non-slip materials or treatments.
