What we do

We’re all spending more time outdoors these days and that makes an eye-catching, new patio the perfect addition to your house and garden. It can be like adding an extra room to your home.

In days gone by, a traditional patio or terrace often used to sit right next to the house but now it has become much more of an entertainment area designed with the idea of enjoyment to the fore and built wherever you want it to be, with a barbecue or hidden firepit as focus, surrounded by wooden or composite decking, and all kinds of colourful and stunning modern paving which can be chosen to harmonize with your house and to complement the surrounding greenery.

It’s important to personalise your patio design; depending on the size and shape of space available, perhaps choose a circular layout with mix-and-match textures; add ambient lighting, furniture and different levels to provide character and flair; we can help you to use every trick in the book to make the space seem as big as possible. Traditional, unique or strikingly modern, whatever you want we can supply it. You choose it, we’ll build it.

For full enjoyment of your patio, you might want to add a bar, a summerhouse, a pergola or raised flower and vegetable beds and, if the ground is uneven, you might even go for a retaining wall to act as a feature and maybe even as a handy windbreak. The choices are endless when we design you a truly welcoming space, where friends and family can meet up for a spot of alfresco dining and feel completely at home, relaxing together in the fresh air. You might think this only works in summer, but if you get the design right, you’ll be able to greatly enjoy your new space during the winter months too.
