Question 1

How long will a patio installation take?

Accepted Answer

Times vary by size, material and access. A small patio can be completed in a couple of days once materials are on site; larger or multi-level projects may take longer. We give a clear programme at survey stage and keep you updated if weather or deliveries affect the schedule.

Question 2

Do you handle drainage and planning issues?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We set correct falls and supply suitable sub‑base and drainage where needed to prevent puddling. If the project needs planning consent or affects boundary walls, we advise on permissions and, where required, work with your chosen specialist or surveyor.

Question 3

Which materials do you recommend for local gardens?

Accepted Answer

For low-maintenance contemporary looks we often fit sawn porcelain or resin-bond surfaces; for a natural aesthetic we use sandstone or limestone. Choice depends on use, surrounding landscaping and budget — we discuss pros and cons at the site visit and show examples from local jobs.

Question 4

Will you match an existing patio or re-level older paving?

Accepted Answer

We can tie new paving into existing patios and re‑lay or re‑point sections where possible, but sometimes complete replacement is the safer long-term option. We assess the existing base and advise the most durable solution rather than a quick fix that might fail later.

Question 5

What aftercare and guarantees do you offer?

Accepted Answer

We aim to return within 48 hours for any remedial issues and explain routine maintenance for your chosen material. Workmanship is covered by our site documentation and we carry public liability insurance up to £2 million; any specific manufacturer guarantees for materials will be passed to you at handover.
