Our patios are installed by our skilled and experienced patio pavers, who work to strict installation methods. Our process is efficient and effective; firstly, we dig out a deep foundation for the patio to sit on, into which we pour wet cement. This forms a base for the stonework, allowing it to sit flat. This technique ensures that the patio paving stays level avoiding subsidence. We finally lay the slabs creating the finished patio, which will keep its finish for many years to come.
If you want to soak up the sunshine and make the most of your garden this summer then we highly recommend you getting a patio. Beat the rush and book an appointment with us before the summer months get here, call us on 01603 360548.
