The beginning

Our customers were fed up of their tired looking patio area that just seem to collect leafs and puddle.

Work we carried out

The customer visited our showroom and decided that she would like our Classic blend of aggregate as the finishing course and we got to work preparing the ground work. Old manhole covers we lifted and replaced with recessed covers and charcoal block edgings used to surround the entire area. A pathway through the driveway gates was widened and a small step area at the back was vastly improved with a single step and resin bound finish. The front path and step was also treated to a makeover with new blocks and a Resin Bound finish to match. The transformation is remarkable and our clients have asked to quote them for a driveway area to match.

The beginning

We had previously completed some fencing for Highlees school in Peterborough which they were extremely happy with, so they contacted us regarding an outside eating area that they wanted to improve the look of, make safer and reduce the maintenance of.

Work we carried out

The previous decking area was demolished and environmentally disposed of ready for us to prepare the ground for a new permeable, resin bound eating area. The area was excavated to a larger area and 28 tonne of MOT Type-1 installed as a sub base. New edging blocks were installed around the area and a oval created some distance away from the tree to help minimise root issues. New metal railings were fabricated and the posts installed prior to compacting the Bitumen base course. The Bitumen base was installed and compacted and Red aggregate bound in UVR Resin hand troweled to the entire area. Once this had cured the metal railings were installed and the project was complete. The end result was exactly what was envisioned by the school and they are extremely happy with the new area which will require far less maintenance, wont puddle or be affected by weeds.

The beginning

Our client had a patio area in the rear garden they wanted to improve the look of and also remove a number of steps.

Work we carried out

It was decided that Resin bound would be the most suitable material and we began with new base work to widen the area into the pathway. A new step was created at the back door and the step areas in the patio were altered to slopes. The whole project was treated to Pearl Quartz aggregate bound in UVR Resin. The final result is a much cleaner looking patio area that will improve drainage and require very little maintenance to keep looking nice.

The beginning

Our client had a patio area at their home in Werrington that they wanted to reduce the maintenance to keep it looking good.

Work we carried out

The patio was treated to a Resin Bound overlay finished in Autumn Quartz aggregate bound in UVR Resin. The resin was installed in a single day and the customers could not be more happy with the finished result.

The beginning

Our client had a patio area in the rear garden they wanted to improve the look of and at the same time increase in size. They also had two pathways and a small area under the window that had loose gravel installed.

Work we carried out

After deciding that Resin Bound would be the best material to use, we excavated around the patio and pathways and installed new blocks and open course bitumen to help make the install permeable and reduce any pooling. Once the ground work had been completed we finished the install in Pearl Quartz aggregate bound in UVR Resin.

The beginning

Our customers had a decking area that was a nitemare to keep on top of and very slippery. They wanted to extend this area and create steps from the rear doors to improve access to the rear garden. They also wanted to hide the neighbouring wall which was old and replace the fencing that was on its last legs.

Work we carried out

The old fence and brick wall was taken down, disposed of and new featheredge panels installed on concrete posts and gravel boards.

Decking was removed and the area excavated to a larger size ready for MOT Type-1 Base and edging blocks to be installed.

A two level system was created using KL blocks and the entire area had bitumen course installed ready for Resin and to make the install fully permeable.

Railway sleepers were used to hide the neighbours wall and create raised planters.

The entire project was then finished in Daltex Classic aggregate bound in UVR Resin.

The beginning

Our customer had a rear garden that was in desperate need of a makeover.

Work we carried out

An old shed was dismantled and disposed of to create more space. The raised pond was filled in and the whole raised section turfed. 40+ metres of new fencing along with a gate was erected and the paving area treated to an overlay of Pearl Quartz aggregate bound in UVR Resin. A huge transformation.

The beginning

Our client had a slabbed patio area that they were struggling to keep looking nice and suffered with puddling when it rained.

Work we carried out

We adjusted the levels in certain places to allow for rain fall off and surrounded the installation with a new block border. Manhole covers were recessed to keep a nice clean look and the entire area including pathway were overlaid in Pearl Quartz aggregate bound in UVR Resin.

The beginning

Our customers wanted to improve a small gravel area at the rear of their property by converting the area to a basic slabbed area.

Work we carried out

The existing loose gravel was removed and the drain covers reset in height. A basic buff riven slab 600×600 in size was installed and a new base for the clothes airer set.

The beginning

Our customers had a patio area they were looking to improve the look of, level and at the same time extend in size.

Work we carried out

The install was extended and curves installed to improve the aesthetics. Loose slabs were reset and pointed so we had a solid base to overlay. The entire area was then overlaid in Devon Yellow aggregate bound in UVR resin. The result is a huge transformation that will require little to keep it looking nice.
