Patios designed for Wallington homes

Wallington is more suburban, with terraced and semi-detached homes, compact gardens and neighbours close by. Making a smaller space feel bigger and work harder is usually the brief.

For Wallington patios we set every slab on a full mortar bed over a compacted sub-base, so nothing rocks, sinks or lifts once the ground moves through winter. Falls are set away from the house and, where the ground holds water, we add channel drains or linear gullies before a single slab goes down.

How we work in Wallington

Access in Wallington is often through the house or a side alley, so we protect floors and pathways, keep the site clean and finish each day tidy.

A typical Wallington patio runs to three to seven working days. We lift and clear the old surface, excavate to depth, compact the base in layers, then lay, cut and point the paving. Cuts around drains, manholes and steps are made on site so the pattern runs true, and we finish with brush-in jointing compound and a clean edge detail. Steps, sleeper edging and retaining walls can all be built into the same project where your garden changes level.

Every Wallington project starts with a free, no-obligation site visit. We measure up, talk through materials and options, then send a written, itemised quote so you can see exactly what is included. We are insured, hold a waste carrier licence and every employee on site is enhanced DBS checked. Most of our work comes from word of mouth in and around Wallington, which is why we care as much about how we leave your home each evening as about the finished result.
