What does a block paved patio involve?
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.
- Jointing sand and compaction
- Dig-out and compacted sub-base (around 100 mm for foot traffic)
- Optional sealer
- Falls away from the house and doors
- Layout marked out with you, including steps and doors
What we check on a Yeadon survey
- Levels against the damp-proof course and door thresholds
- Trees and roots near the paving
- Outside taps, lights and cables
- Steps, walls and changes of level
- Edges against lawns, beds, fences and walls
Do you need permission for a block paved patio in Yeadon?
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.
