We install patios and paving in natural stone, porcelain and Indian stone as part of our hard landscaping services. ### Who it's for It's for homeowners who want a usable outdoor space that looks good all year, whether replacing an old, uneven patio or adding one for the first time. ### When it's needed Typical reasons include cracked or sunken slabs, a patio too small for a table, paving in the wrong spot that never gets sun, or a new garden that needs a hard-wearing heart. ### Why professional help matters A patio lasts only as long as what's beneath it. Excavation, a compacted sub-base, correct falls for drainage and properly bedded and jointed slabs are what separate a patio that lasts from one that moves after a winter. General garden guidance ## Considerations for Your Garden Project Failing patios get worse. Water gets under loose slabs, frost lifts them further, weeds take hold in open joints, and a minor fix becomes a full relay. ### Risks and escalating costs - Trip hazards from rocking or sunken slabs - Water pooling against the house without correct falls - Weeds and moss in failing joints - A patio sized or positioned so it is rarely used ### Common mistakes homeowners make - Laying on an inadequate base to save time - Choosing a stone that doesn't suit the use or the house - Ignoring drainage and falls - Positioning the patio by habit rather than by sunlight Our process ## Free Design, Quotes & Landscaping - 01 ### Free site visit Contact Oliver to arrange a free site visit and discuss your garden. - 02 ### Free garden design Professional planting plans and CAD drawings are free of charge. - 03 ### Free quote Quotes are free.
