Project Description

New Garden Patio Installation in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire

Overview

This project involved transforming a tired and outdated garden area into a modern, functional patio space, enhancing both the aesthetic appeal and usability of the outdoor space. The new patio seamlessly complements the garden, creating a beautiful and practical environment perfect for relaxation and social gatherings.

Initial Challenges

  • The existing garden consisted of uneven, worn-out paving slabs with minimal design appeal.
  • The area required extensive preparation, including the removal of old slabs, leveling the ground, and ensuring proper drainage.
  • The design needed to integrate with the garden’s existing features, including a charming wooden cabin and nearby greenery.

Process

  1. Design and Planning:
    • A tailored patio design was created to suit the client’s needs and the natural flow of the garden.
    • Curved edges were incorporated to soften the layout and blend the patio with the surrounding lawn and planting areas.
  2. Ground Preparation:
    • The old paving slabs and debris were removed.
    • The ground was excavated and leveled, with a sub-base of compacted MOT type 1 laid for stability.
    • A sharp sand screed was applied to create a solid foundation for the new patio.
  3. Installation:
    • High-quality grey sandstone slabs were chosen for their durability and timeless appeal.
    • The slabs were laid in a staggered pattern with precise alignment for a sleek finish.
    • A contrasting charcoal edging block was added to define the patio’s borders and enhance its visual impact.
    • A pathway leading to the wooden cabin was carefully designed, incorporating curves to create a natural flow.
  4. Finishing Touches:
    • Soil borders around the patio were prepared for planting, allowing the client to personalize the garden further.
    • The surrounding lawn and garden were tidied up to highlight the new patio’s design.
    • All materials and tools were cleared, leaving the area spotless.

Final Result

The completed patio is a stunning addition to the garden, combining practicality with a sophisticated design. The grey sandstone complements the wooden cabin and brickwork of the house, creating a harmonious blend of materials. The new patio provides a versatile outdoor space for entertaining, dining, or relaxing.
