Patios Engineered to Endure
A beautifully constructed patio is the heart of a garden. We build yours on a foundation of integrity, craftsmanship, and a promise of true longevity.
A patio is far more than a paved area, it is the stage for your outdoor life. A space for morning coffee, family lunches, and quiet evenings with friends. We believe such a central feature should be an investment for a lifetime. That's why our entire process is designed to create a stunningly beautiful patio that is also a masterpiece of engineering, guaranteed to remain flawless for decades to come.
Why Our Patios Don't Sink, Shift, or Subside
Your greatest concern should be what lies beneath the surface. The vast majority of patio failures stem from a hastily prepared, shallow sub-base. Our process is meticulous, transparent, and designed to provide absolute peace of mind.
Meticulous Excavation & Sub-Base
We begin by excavating to a significant depth, creating a solid, reinforced sub-base with high-quality aggregate. This foundation is expertly compacted to create an immovable bedrock for your patio, completely eliminating the risk of future sinking or movement.
Professional Drainage & Pointing
Every patio is designed with perfect falls to ensure proper drainage, preventing water pooling. We use advanced pointing and grouting compounds that resist weathering and weeds, ensuring the joints remain as pristine as the slabs themselves.
The Art of Laying
Each paving slab is laid with precision by our skilled craftsmen, ensuring perfect lines and a flawless, level finish that feels solid and luxurious underfoot.
Timeless Materials, Expertly Chosen
We guide you through the choice of materials, explaining the benefits of each to find the perfect complement to your home and garden.
Indian Sandstone Patios: For a timeless, classic look with natural character and warm tones. A perennial favourite in Oxfordshire for its enduring beauty.
Porcelain Patios: For a clean, contemporary aesthetic. Porcelain is incredibly dense, highly resistant to staining and frost, and offers a sophisticated, low-maintenance finish.
Classic Block Paving: Perfect for creating intricate patterns, paths, and durable driveways with a traditional feel.
