What you get with our patios service

A block paved patio is a garden seating or dining area paved with concrete or clay blocks on a compacted base. Because a patio carries people and furniture rather than cars, the sub-base is thinner than for a drive, but the falls, edging and drainage matter just as much.

  • Blocks in your pattern, edges and cuts
  • Layout marked out with you, including steps and doors
  • Optional sealer
  • Dig-out and compacted sub-base (around 100 mm for foot traffic)
  • Falls away from the house and doors

What we check on a Newton-le-Willows survey

  • Edges against lawns, beds, fences and walls
  • Block range, colour, pattern and border to suit the house
  • Where rain will go: falls away from the house, onto lawn or borders, or into a channel
  • Access for a mini-digger and how waste leaves the garden
  • Ground conditions and how deep the dig must be

Do you need permission for a block paved patio in Newton-le-Willows?

A patio or path behind the house does not usually need planning permission. Raised patios, listed buildings and flats can be different, so we check on the survey.

Paving in front of the house follows the front-garden rules: in England, a front drive over 5 m² needs planning permission unless it is permeable or drains to a lawn or border within your boundary.
