Patio & Pathway Design
Stone terraces, curving walks, seating walls and glow — arranged around your household and laid for barefoot daily use across decades.
A fine terrace mirrors your habits: sunrise coffee in warmth, supper for eight, a secluded nook with a novel. We draft arrangements to host those rituals, select stone, brick or porcelain to complement your dwelling, and grade falls so rain runs off and door thresholds meet flush — no stumbles, no standing pools.
Walks earn equal thought: generous bends, steady permeable footings, and borders that soften each margin. Finish with low-voltage glow and the plot serves after sunset too.
We survey, photograph and chat about how you wish to dwell outside.
Sketches, surfacing and one fixed figure — no hazy ballparks.
Most terraces finish in 1–3 weeks with nightly sweeps.
Bedding, lighting and a handover tour with a care sheet.
A typical household terrace spans one to two weeks; grander schemes with walls, treads and glow run two to three. You receive a day-by-day programme upfront, and we hold to it.
Warm sandstone brings mellow character, porcelain lends a sharp modern face with scant upkeep, and brick flatters older brickwork. We carry samples to your visit so you can weigh them in your own daylight.
Not over a sound footing. We dig to firm strata, compact layered sub-base to true falls, and lay units on full mortar beds — hence our 5-year craftsmanship warranty on every scheme.
Happily — tight gardens are a forte. Clever grading, diagonal coursing and built-in benches make bijou spaces read twice their size. Browse recent schemes for proof.
