Indian sandstone, porcelain, granite setts, outdoor kitchens and bespoke garden builds. Laid properly on the right sub-base, jointed, sealed and finished to the last edge. We do the whole job, not just the slabs.
Hardcore base whacker-plated and bound, with a mortar bed under every slab. Not five-spot dabs, not sand-only on questionable ground. The base is what the slab sits on for the next twenty years.
Falls set away from the house and toward planned drainage, not just sloped wherever. On a Cornish garden that takes a beating from Atlantic rain, the falls are what keep the patio dry.
Edge restraints concreted in before laying, with mortared kerb lines or stone edging where the patio meets lawn or border. The bit that fails first on a cheap job is what we spend the most time on.
Resin-grout joints on porcelain, polymeric or wet-mortar on sandstone, sealer on request. Cleaned down, swept tidy and the patio walked over before we hand it over.
Indian sandstone is the workhorse, porcelain is the modern choice, and Cornish granite or slate works beautifully if the budget allows. We'll quote whichever you prefer and tell you honestly which would weather the Atlantic best for your aspect.
Yes. We've built outdoor kitchens, pizza ovens, planted walls and built-in seating into patio jobs across Cornwall and Devon. Bring a photo or a sketch and we'll work out what's possible on your plot.
A 30 sq m sandstone patio is usually 4 to 7 working days from strip to handover, depending on access and what the sub-base looks like once we dig it out. We give you a programme at quote stage and stick to it.
Yes. A 20 sq m back-garden patio is just as welcome as a full new-build hard-landscape. We'll travel for it across Cornwall and most of Devon.
Yes. Lifting, breaking up and carting away the old surface is built into the quote. We tip at a licensed waste transfer station and keep the duty-of-care notes for our records.
A quick call or message with Robert is usually enough to know whether your patios & landscaping job is a good fit. No detail too small.
