01.10.2019
Creating a new patio can be such an enjoyable experience. It doesn’t matter whether you’re just looking to spruce up an old patio or build a whole new one, you’ll need the perfect patio paving to suit your requirements.  It can seem confusing at first, with so many options available. So to help you, we’ve highlighted our top patio paving options, which can provide you with a stunning and practical patio space for your garden, no matter the size. 

Block Paving

Block paving is quite simply one of the best and most reliable materials you can use for your patio paving. Made from concrete and clay, the blocks can be laid into whatever pattern or detail you desire, to create an aesthetically pleasing and long-lasting finish, which will perfectly complement your property. Block paving comes in a range of styles and colours, it’s environmentally friendly, and very low maintenance; requiring just a little soap and water to keep it clean. 

Resin Bound 

Resin bound paving can provide an eye-catching natural look to your patio, since the material uses a mixture of resin and organic aggregate to create a stony surface. This patio paving option effortlessly combines style and strength, plus its non-slip qualities, durability and long lasting nature make the surface highly versatile. It’s also incredibly porous, meaning water can run off easily, which will benefit any nearby vegetation and lessen any potential damage from freezing. 

Imprinted Concrete

Imprinted concrete is a hugely popular patio paving choice for many people who want to create a distinctly decorative and professional finish to their garden patios. A single solid slab of concrete is laid. Dyes are then applied to it, along with a hardener, before the desired pattern is imprinted into the concrete. The diversity of patterns and aesthetic options are endless; from a simple gravel or slate effect, to intricate circular designs that make use of various colours and effects. It’s also virtually impermeable, meaning any maintenance is incredibly simple.   If you’re looking to get the perfect paving for your patio but don’t know where to start, then please get in touch with us for a free quotation and expert advice today, on 01952 840 838.
