Patios and Paving

When you choose your paving for the patio, try to see it laid somewhere in a real life situation. There is no need to stick to one type of paving or surface in the design experiment. Pebbles, gravels, bricks and tiles, can all be incorporated. A contrasting brick edge can also be effective. Generally, it is better to choose a colour that contrasts or compliments, when the patio is laid near to the house. Do not try to match the colour of the brickwork for instance [Dark brickwork - light paving and vice versa]

Indian Sand Stone

Natural stone paving has an enduring quality which gets better with age. Natural stone products inevitably show variations in colour, size and thickness this however should only add to the charm and beauty of the finished laid product.

Textured Paving

An alternative to the ever popular riven finish, textured paving has a distinctive fleck created by exposing the natural aggregate during the manufacture. This gives the added benefit of an effective non slip surface.

Courtyard Paving

This range of paving is designed to give the appearance of aged foot-warn flagstones. Its mellow colour and texture normally only created through hundreds of years of weathering. The warn stone effect can add atmosphere to the "old world" cottage garden to the more formal Victorian garden design.
