Project Information
This project in Werrington, Peterborough was completed on the 5th July 2020 and involved excavating and block paving a patio area with a triple step and a pathway to the back of the garden, as well as turfing an area of grass.
Customers’ Needs
The customer wanted to do a complete overhaul on the patio area by replacing the slab patio with a better looking block paving product, giving themselves a tidier and nicer area for entertaining. They also wanted to give themselves better access to the rear of the garden by replacing part of the grass with the same block paving while also turfing the remaining grass area for less garden maintenance.
Installing Block Paved Patio
The first part of this installation involved us excavating and block paving the patio area, for this we used modern looking Savanna autumn block paving, these blocks come in 3 different sizes and are laid in a random stretcher bond design, we then used charcoal as the border colour, while also installing a triple step that went down from garden level to house level.
Installing Block Paved Pathway
We then excavated and block paved a pathway from the patio area to the rear of the garden, for this we used Savanna autumn block paving, these blocks come in 3 different sizes and are laid in a random stretcher bond design, we then used charcoal as the border colour.
Installing Area Of Turf
We then excavated and turfed the slab & grass area to leave the customer with less garden maintenance, to do this we excavated the area to a suitable depth, installed a layer of topsoil and then carefully laid turf on top, which was then cut in to follow the shape of the block paving.
The Finished Product
The customer now has a much more tidier and usable patio area which has multiple areas for seating and entertaining as well as improved access to the rear of the house, on top of that now that the area is block paved and the grass is turfed it means less garden maintenance will be required, with piece of mind that all the work here is guaranteed for 10 years.
