What to know before a block paved patio in Evesham
Evesham has a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many older patios here are ready to be replaced or re-laid.
Clay ground is widespread in the West Midlands, so the sub-base depth and drainage are checked on every survey.

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.
- Jointing sand and compaction
- Optional sealer
- Dig-out and compacted sub-base (around 100 mm for foot traffic)
- Blocks in your pattern, edges and cuts
- Falls away from the house and doors
What we check on an Evesham survey
- Block range, colour, pattern and border to suit the house
- Edges against lawns, beds, fences and walls
- Where rain will go: falls away from the house, onto lawn or borders, or into a channel
- 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 Evesham?
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.

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.
Is the survey in Evesham 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.
How long does a block paved patio take?
Most patios and paths take two to five working days, depending on the size, any steps and the dig. Your quote gives the expected duration.
