FAQ’s – Common Questions On Our Patios
Customers often ask us these questions so we put together a list of common questions to help you understand the patio process
What is the best material for my new patio or path?
The “best” material depends entirely on your home’s style, how you plan to use the space, and your budget. We commonly install durable options like Natural Stone (e.g., Indian Sandstone), Porcelain Paving, and Concrete Slabs.
-
Natural Stone offers unique beauty and character.
-
Porcelain is highly sought after for its modern look and very low maintenance (it’s non-porous and highly resistant to fading).
We always offer a free consultation to look at your specific Heanor garden and advise you on the perfect material for your needs.
Do I need to worry about drainage or water pooling on my patio?
No, not if it’s installed correctly. A crucial part of our professional process is ensuring a slight, deliberate fall (or gradient) is built into the patio during installation. This directs surface water away from your house and into a suitable area (like a lawn or a dedicated drain/soakaway), preventing standing water and protecting your home’s foundations.
How long will a new patio installation take?
The timeline varies significantly based on the size of the area, the complexity of the design, and the materials chosen. As a general guide, most standard domestic patios in the Heanor area take between 3 to 7 working days. We will provide a clear, detailed timeline in your quote once the design is agreed upon.
My existing patio is looking tired/dirty. Can you restore it instead of replacing it?
Absolutely. We specialise in Patio & Path Refurbishment. Our cleaning service uses powerful, non-chemical methods to safely remove years of grime, moss, and algae, bringing your slabs back to life. In many cases, effective cleaning and re-pointing can make an old patio look almost new, saving you the cost of a full replacement.
Will I need planning permission for a new patio?
For a standard patio in your rear garden that is at or near ground level, planning permission is usually not required. However, if you are installing a large, raised patio (over 30cm high) or installing hard surfaces that cover a significant portion of your front garden, you may need to check local regulations. We can discuss any potential planning concerns during our initial site visit.
