The Project

Mrs and Mr Graham contacted us looking to rejuvenate their garden area, which had become uneven and dated over the years. They wanted a contemporary, easy-to-maintain outdoor space that could be enjoyed throughout the seasons. The existing patio and pathways were a mixture of old slabs and worn paving, giving the area an untidy appearance. Our clients wanted a more cohesive look that would complement their property while improving the overall usability of the space.

After discussing the various options, they were drawn to the clean, modern finish that porcelain tiles can provide. Their aim was to create a sleek patio area that would seamlessly connect to the adjoining pathways, offering both practicality and style.

Our Recommendation

Following a full site survey, we recommended the installation of a porcelain tiled patio and pathway. Porcelain was the ideal choice for this project as it combines visual appeal with long-term durability. Its non-porous surface makes it resistant to staining and weather damage, while the uniform texture provides a modern, elegant appearance that enhances any outdoor space.

We advised lifting and removing the existing surfaces before laying a new, compacted sub-base to ensure proper drainage and lasting stability. By using high-quality installation materials and carefully planning the layout, we were able to achieve precise levels and consistent spacing throughout, ensuring a professional finish that would stand the test of time.

The Installation

Once work began, our team carefully excavated the old paving and prepared the foundations for the new patio and pathways. We installed a strong sub-base and bedding layer to create the perfect surface for the porcelain tiles. Each tile was laid with precision, maintaining exact alignment and level consistency across the area.

The pathway was designed to connect naturally with the main patio with the goal of enhancing both the appearance and functionality of the garden. Despite a tight timescale of just one week, the project progressed smoothly, with every stage completed to our usual high standard. Once the installation was complete, all joints were finished neatly, and the area was cleaned down to reveal the stunning new surface beneath.

The Result

The transformation was immediate. The new porcelain tiled patio and pathway have completely refreshed the outdoor area, bringing a clean, modern look to the property. The light tone of the tiles brightens the space beautifully, while the smooth finish provides a perfect setting for relaxing and entertaining outdoors.

Mrs and Mr Graham were delighted with the result and impressed with how quickly the work was completed. The new patio and pathway not only look exceptional but will also provide a durable and low-maintenance surface for many years to come.
