01

Porcelain Patio
Installation

Transform your outdoor living area with a premium porcelain patio installation. Porcelain paving is the ultimate choice for modern London gardens, offering a sleek, contemporary aesthetic combined with unmatched durability. Unlike traditional natural stone, porcelain is fired at extreme temperatures, making it non-porous, highly stain-resistant, and completely frost-proof. It won't absorb water, meaning algae and moss struggle to take hold, resulting in a low-maintenance surface that looks pristine year after year.

Our expert installation process ensures a flawless finish. We utilize laser-leveling technology to ensure perfect drainage and a seamless transition from your indoor living space to the outdoors. Whether you desire a minimalist, polished look or a textured, wood-effect finish, we source only the finest materials from top Italian and UK quarries. A porcelain patio is an investment in your property's value and your quality of life, providing a sophisticated space for dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing.

Indian Sandstone
Paving

Experience the timeless elegance of natural stone with a premium Indian Sandstone patio installation. Sourced from high-quality quarries, Indian Sandstone offers an organic, character-rich charm that no manufactured material can replicate. Featuring naturally riven textures and unique geological banding, no two slabs are ever alike. It is the perfect paving choice for traditional Victorian and Edwardian period properties, blending seamlessly with classic London brickwork.

Our structural installation methodology guarantees a lifelong build. We excavate to a minimum of 150mm to mitigate South East London's heavy clay soil, compact a solid MOT Type 1 sub-base, and apply SBR slurry primer to prevent rising moisture stains (picture framing). Laid on a full wet mortar bed and sealed with breathable, protective sealants, we ensure your natural stone patio remains level, stain-free, and safe for family outdoor dining year-round.

03

Composite
Decking

Elevate your garden with high-performance composite decking, the smart alternative to traditional timber. Composite decking offers the warm, tactile beauty of natural wood without the demanding upkeep. Manufactured from a blend of recycled wood fibers and durable polymers, boards from leading brands like Millboard and Trex are engineered to resist fading, warping, rotting, and splintering. You'll never need to spend your weekends sanding, staining, or oiling your deck again.

We specialize in designing and constructing bespoke composite decking frameworks tailored to your garden's unique contours. Whether you need a simple, elegant platform for summer barbecues, a multi-tiered structure to navigate sloping terrain, or a custom surround for a hot tub, our carpentry team ensures a rock-solid, properly engineered subframe for lasting stability. With a wide range of colors and textures available, composite decking provides a safe, slip-resistant, and luxurious foundation for your outdoor lifestyle.

Artificial Turf
& Turfing

Achieve a lush, vibrant lawn regardless of your garden's lighting or soil conditions with our professional turfing services. For London homeowners seeking a perfectly manicured look with zero maintenance, our premium artificial turf is the ideal solution. Modern synthetic grass is incredibly realistic, UV-stabilized to prevent fading, and features excellent drainage, making it perfect for heavily shaded areas, pet owners, and busy families who want a mud-free lawn all year round.

If you prefer the natural touch and ecological benefits of real grass, we also offer expert natural turfing using high-quality, locally sourced meadow rolls. Our comprehensive installation process includes thorough ground clearance, precise soil levelling, and the incorporation of nutrient-rich topsoil to ensure a healthy, deeply rooted lawn. Whether you choose the flawless convenience of artificial turf or the organic charm of real grass, we deliver a flawless green canvas that instantly rejuvenates your garden's appearance.

Cedar Slatted
Fencing

Define your property boundaries and enhance your privacy with our elegant cedar slatted fencing. Moving away from standard, uninspiring fence panels, horizontal slatted fencing adds a distinct architectural element to any contemporary garden. Western Red Cedar is renowned for its striking natural color variations, from warm ambers to rich sienna browns, bringing a touch of luxury and warmth to your outdoor space.

Beyond its undeniable aesthetic appeal, cedar contains natural oils that make it highly resistant to rot, decay, and insect damage, ensuring remarkable longevity even in the unpredictable UK weather. Our bespoke installations are custom-built on-site, allowing us to perfectly navigate uneven ground and integrate seamlessly with existing walls or structures. The horizontal lines create an illusion of space, making smaller urban gardens feel wider, while the subtle gaps allow wind to pass through, reducing pressure on the fence during winter storms.

06

Pergolas &
Structures

Maximize the usability of your garden with a bespoke pergola or architectural garden structure. A well-designed pergola serves as a captivating focal point, providing a dedicated zone for dining, lounging, or entertaining while offering a gentle reprieve from the midday sun. It blurs the boundary between indoor luxury and outdoor freedom, extending your living space into the fresh air.

We design and construct custom timber pergolas tailored to your garden's specific geometry and your personal style. From classic, open-rafter designs perfect for training climbing plants like wisteria and jasmine, to modern, streamlined structures with integrated lighting and automated louvers for complete weather control, we build to your exact specifications. A bespoke garden structure not only adds significant architectural interest and vertical dimension to your landscape but also creates a cozy, sheltered retreat where you can enjoy your garden long into the evening.

07

Full Garden
Makeovers

By treating the garden as a single, unified project, we ensure perfect flow, consistent material quality, and a cohesive design language that perfectly complements your home. Turn your underutilized yard into a stunning, functional sanctuary that you'll be proud to show off.

Common Questions

How much does a patio cost in the UK?
The cost of a new patio installation in London is influenced by several variables, including material selection (such as Italian porcelain or natural stone), ground preparation requirements, and site access. We provide free on-site consultations and detailed, itemised quotes to ensure a fixed and transparent investment figure for your project. Book a Consultation.
Do I need planning permission for a patio?
Generally, no. Patios are considered "permitted development" as long as they are not higher than 300mm above ground level and manage drainage within your property boundary.
What is the best material for a modern garden?
For a modern London garden, we recommend Porcelain Paving for the patio (clean lines, stain-resistant) and Composite Decking (Millboard) for entertaining areas. Both are low-maintenance and look pristine for years.
Is composite decking better than wood?
Yes, for most London homeowners, composite decking (such as Millboard) is superior to natural wood. While hardwood and softwood decking look great initially, they require annual sanding, sealing, and staining, and can become highly slippery when wet. Premium composite decking has a built-in slip-resistant surface, does not warp, rot, or splinter, and has a 25-35 year lifespan with zero maintenance other than a soap-and-water wash.
What is the best low-maintenance patio material?
Vitrified porcelain paving is the best low-maintenance patio material. Unlike natural sandstone or limestone, porcelain tiles are non-porous (water absorption rate of less than 0.05%), meaning they are highly resistant to moss, algae, and stain penetration. They do not require sealing, stay slip-resistant when wet, and will not fade over time, making them extremely easy to keep clean in shaded urban gardens.
