A patio is the part of the garden you actually live on. It wants to be big enough for the table with the chairs pulled out, positioned where the sun is when you would use it, and set at a height that works with the back door.

The construction matters as much as the slabs. Paving is laid on a compacted base and a full mortar bed rather than dabbed on five blobs, which is what causes rocking slabs and cracked corners a year later. Falls run away from the house so water never sits against the brickwork, and joints are pointed properly so nothing washes out.

Common questions

Patio Paving in Birkenhead — your questions

How big should a patio be?

Work backwards from what goes on it. A table with chairs pulled back needs more room than people expect. We set the area out on the ground before anything is cut so you can see it at full size.

Should a patio be laid level?

No. A patio needs a slight fall away from the house so rainwater runs off rather than pooling or tracking back towards the wall. It is barely noticeable underfoot but it is what keeps the surface dry.

Porcelain or natural stone?

Porcelain is dense, colour-stable and easy to keep clean. Natural stone has more variation and a softer look. Porcelain generally wins in shade and where staining is a worry; stone wins on character.

Can the patio join onto the drive?

Yes, and it is worth planning both together so levels, coursing and materials tie in rather than meeting awkwardly at a step.

How long will a patio take?

A typical domestic patio runs a few days to a week depending on size, excavation, steps and walls. The quote gives you a timescale.
