Costs depend on size, paving choice, and added features like pergolas, built-in benches and lighting. As a guide, a small patio seating area may start around £2,500–£5,000. Mid-sized spaces with quality paving and simple lighting often fall between £6,000–£12,000. Larger builds with pergola seating, fire pit areas, steps, drainage and premium stone can be £15,000–£30,000+.
Most projects take 3–10 working days, depending on groundworks and complexity. A straightforward patio for dining spaces can be completed in under a week, while designs with pergolas, built-in benches, lighting and multiple levels typically take 1–3 weeks. Timescales are affected by access, weather, curing time for concrete, and whether we’re adding drainage, retaining edges or bespoke joinery.
In many cases, patios, seating areas and low-level landscaping are permitted development, so planning permission isn’t required. However, rules can apply if you’re in a conservation area, altering levels significantly, installing taller structures like pergolas with screens, or adding electrics that need certification. We’ll advise on what’s likely to be permitted, check constraints, and recommend speaking with the council if anything looks borderline.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for outdoor seating areas, covering installation issues such as sub-base failure, movement from poor compaction, and defects linked to our build methods. Materials are also covered by manufacturer warranties where applicable (for example, certain paving, lighting fittings or timber treatments). We’ll explain what’s included in writing and how to care for surfaces to keep them looking their best.
Popular choices include porcelain paving for low maintenance, sandstone or granite for a natural look, and composite or hardwood for built-in benches and sun lounging areas. We can add pergola seating, shade sails, privacy screens, and layered lighting (steps, wall lights and feature spots). Fire pit areas can be gas or wood, with heat-safe surrounds. We’ll help you choose finishes that suit your home style, budget and how you entertain.
