What you get with our patios service
Block suits patios that join a block drive or path, small or awkward spaces where large slabs would need too many cuts, and gardens where you want a pattern such as basketweave or a circle feature. We lay patios to fall away from the house and below the damp-proof course, with edging that stops the blocks creeping into the lawn.
- Layout marked out with you, including steps and doors
- Optional sealer
- Blocks in your pattern, edges and cuts
- Falls away from the house and doors
- Jointing sand and compaction
What the survey covers
- Ground conditions and how deep the dig must be
- Levels against the damp-proof course and door thresholds
- Trees and roots near the paving
- Access for a mini-digger and how waste leaves the garden
- Where rain will go: falls away from the house, onto lawn or borders, or into a channel
Do you need permission for a block paved patio in Cleethorpes?
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.

Patios in Cleethorpes: questions
Is the survey in Cleethorpes free?
Yes, for new paving here: the survey and written quote are free with no obligation. Repairs and cleaning are usually priced from photos, or from a short visit where needed.
Can the paving be level with the back door?
Paving normally sits at least 150 mm below the damp-proof course. A level step-out needs a drainage channel against the house and careful detailing, which we agree on the survey.

What happens to my old patio or lawn?
Old slabs, concrete or turf are dug out and taken away, listed as its own line on your quote.
