Whether you want a space in your garden where you can relax during the summer or a hard wearing low maintenance option that will stand the rigours of kids, our team will design your perfect patio or path with your needs in mind.
If you are considering adding a new patio or refurbishing your existing patio then porcelain paving slabs are an excellent choice. They’re straightforward to install and require little maintenance due to their non-porous nature. This means that very little water is absorbed, so dirt, algae, and moss are less likely to build up.
Made up from white clay, sand, and feldspar, porcelain pavers are kiln-fired at an extremely high temperature which makes them extremely durable and resistant to harsh weather conditions like rain, wind, ice, snow, and UV rays.
Furthermore, porcelain paving slabs are incredibly versatile and because they are non-slip they can be used for patios, walkways, and more.
Patios
Where ground levels are fairly flat a patio is an excellent option for your garden. There is a truly fantastic range of slabs and materials available with something to suit every taste and budget.
We can supply samples for you to choose your perfect slabs, from natural stone through to composite concrete products.
We lay our patios on a compacted base of Type 1 MOT and then a continuous bed of concrete and a Priming Slurry so that they will not move once laid.
A patio with a raised edge finish flush with the lawn will make your life easier when cutting the lawn too as well as looking amazing. We can incorporate all manner of features with your patio to include benches and fire pits and ponds.
We also advise and install drainage around your patio edges or a threshold drain around your property with a continuous fall into the drainage.
Patio Options include the following:
- Natural Stone (Sandstone, Limestone, Granite, Slate): Highly durable and unique, offering natural color variations, with sandstone providing autumnal tones and limestone offering consistent shades.
- Porcelain Slabs: A contemporary, low-maintenance choice that is scratch-resistant and ideal for high-traffic areas. Available in a range of styles, colours and sizes.
- Concrete Paving & Slabs: Cost-effective, versatile, and available in many colors/shapes, including stamped concrete.
- Brick or Block Paving: Ideal for creating a classic or rustic look with multiple colour and texture options.
Just bounce your ideas off us and we can offer expert help and advice and design the perfect patio for your garden.

Block Paving & Patio Cleaning
When we clean block paving and patios, we not only clean the surface, we clean the joints between as well. If a significant amount of muck is not removed from the joints, weeds will quickly start to re-establish themselves, this is always very frustrating for customers and is why we make sure we do a thorough job time and time again.
Block paved driveways and patios are not only vulnerable to weed growth, but also if they are left unprotected the colour of the blocks will fade due to the effects of UV light from the sun.
We always recommend sealing block paving and patio slabs once it is clean and dry to protect it from surface wear, loss of colour and staining.
By helping the sand in between the blocks set solid, this will also reduce weeds in the joints.

Garden Paths
Adding structure and flow to your garden with a pathway can change the dynamics and add new interest. From simple solutions like steps and gravel paths connecting house and garden, to more complex garden designs that separate areas and create more of an adventure.
A garden path has endless possibilities to connect different areas and zones within your garden or for a functional service from the front of the house to the back.
Paths can take a direct route to connect one area to the next in a simple straight line or can take the Japanese approach with a winding path to slow you down and appreciate the garden at a relaxed pace.
