What is included?
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.
Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.
- Blocks in your pattern, edges and cuts
- Falls away from the house and doors
- Optional sealer
- Jointing sand and compaction
- Layout marked out with you, including steps and doors
What the survey covers
- Where rain will go: falls away from the house, onto lawn or borders, or into a channel
- Edges against lawns, beds, fences and walls
- Access for a mini-digger and how waste leaves the garden
- Steps, walls and changes of level
- Levels against the damp-proof course and door thresholds
Do you need permission for a block paved patio in Gwynedd?
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 Wales, new front paving should be permeable or drain within your boundary to avoid planning permission, and drives of 100 m² or more need SuDS approval.
