Build an Outside Space That Works Better
Materials, levels, drainage and intended use should be considered together to create a durable result.
Patios
Create a practical seating, dining or entertaining area using suitable paving materials.
Driveways
Improve access and parking with properly prepared and finished surfacing.
Pathways and Steps
Connect different parts of the garden safely and clearly.
Garden Brickwork
Add walls, borders, raised features, fireplaces, BBQs and other permanent details.
Make the Garden Work With the Improved Home
Building work can change levels, access and the relationship between the home and garden. Landscaping can reinstate affected areas and create a more coherent finish.
The Work May Include
- Ground preparation and excavation
- Sub-bases and drainage considerations
- Natural stone or manufactured paving
- Brick, block or timber features
- Making good after extension work
Preparation Matters as Much as the Finish
A durable patio, driveway or pathway depends on suitable preparation, levels and materials beneath the visible surface.
