Relay Old Patio and Extend to Entire Garden

The Beginning

Our customer in Cardea wanted to extend their installed patio so that it covered the entire rear garden area.

This included lifting the old slabs so we could create a chequered effect when mixing with new slabs.

Work we carried out

The turf area of the garden was lifted and disposed of. The existing slabs were then lifted and the entire area excavated ready for hardcore.

Once the hardcore was installed the entire area was whackered down to give a firm base.

The slabs were then laid and existing block edging re-used to create a decorative design in the middle of the garden which we installed White Flint aggregate bound in UV resistant resin to match the front of the property which we also installed.

Resin Garden Makeover

The Beginning

Our client had a back garden she was finding high maintenance and quite bland. She wanted something that would look great all year round with little maintenance and had a few ideas she wanted to work with.

Work we carried out

After arranging to visit Rachel she had quite a clear idea of what it was she was looking to achieve and we managed to get this all down in a quotation that she was happy with.

The main turfed area of the garden was to be lifted with a decorative blocked circle to be created in order to house a small area of approximately 3m of turf, breaking up the garden. We would compliment this with a charcoal blocked border around the entire project area.

The gravel and slabbed area was also lifted to match up with the rest of the garden and become one install area.

A concrete base was installed with draining areas and the customers choice of Daltex Golden Quartz Resin overlayed.

Rachel loves her new garden and we think the entire project looks fantastic.

Number of install days was 4.

New Patio and Pathway (Resin/Slab/Block)

The Beginning

The customer wanted a modern looking patio area for their garden, a mixture of both resin and slab.

Work we carried out

The install area was prepared with a full dig-out. The patio area to be slabbed was raised to a higher height to the rest of the install as you can see in the images. This was slabbed with the rest of the install being Resin Bonded Surfacing.

This leads to a pathway which we created using a mixture of both Resin and Blocks and winds all down the garden.

The final result is superb and the customer couldn’t be happier.

Install clients slabs

The Beginning

Our client contacted us as they had half their patio missing and wanted to enjoy it for the rest of the summer.

They had found some used slabs that were similar to the rest of the remaining patio and were wanting someone to install them correctly.

The customer was also having issues with Bamboo coming through from next door which needed to obviously be dealt with so it wouldn’t affect the newly installed slabs.

Work we carried out

A full dig out of the install area was completed along with a trench to install a bamboo barrier.

Once the dig out was completed we installed hardcore and laid the slabs to fit in with the rest of the already laid slab work. This obviously involved cuts to make sure everything looks as tidy as possible.

Laying slabs to an already existing slabbing area can be tricky as you need to keep with the levels of the already existing slabs so the new patio doesn’t stick out as freshly laid too much.

The work took a couple of days and as well as being the most lovely customers (Coffee, Biscuits, Bacon Sandwiches etc 🙂 ) they were chuffed to bits with the final result.
