Thornton Heath has excellent-value homes with varied garden shapes, from Victorian terraces to Edwardian semis and 1930s houses. We regularly work on rear gardens with narrow side access, stepped thresholds and older drainage runs. Our patio builds suit everything from compact courtyards to longer lawns that benefit from a patio extension. If you’re near Grangewood Park or within CR7, we’ll recommend materials and laying patterns that complement your property’s character.
We start with a design consultation, then plan levels, drainage falls and edging details before any digging begins. Sub-bases are installed properly, with careful compaction and tidy spoil removal, so the finish doesn’t sink or rock. You’ll get clear timescales, material options and a written scope of works. Local homeowners trust us because we communicate well, protect access routes, and back installations with a 10-year warranty.
Gardens in the London Borough of Croydon often have mixed ground and older drainage, so we check levels and water run-off carefully. Many CR7 homes have limited access and controlled parking, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for boundary walls, shared paths and changes in level common to terrace plots. The result is a patio that fits the site, not a one-size approach from a brochure.

Costs vary by size, access and material. As a guide, professionally installed patios in Thornton Heath commonly range from about £120–£180 per m² for quality concrete paving, £150–£230 per m² for Indian sandstone, and £180–£280+ per m² for porcelain. Steps, drainage adjustments, retaining edges, waste removal and complex patterns can increase the total. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most patio projects take 3–7 working days once work starts, depending on size and complexity. A small seating area can be completed in a few days, while larger patio extensions with steps, raised sections or drainage work may take 1–2 weeks. Timescales are affected by access through the property, waste removal logistics, curing time for bedding and jointing, and weather. We confirm a realistic schedule before starting.
In many cases, a new patio at ground level is permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, affecting drainage to the public highway, working near boundaries, or the property is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll advise on best practice and check any Croydon requirements that may apply, including permeable solutions and sensible water run-off management.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our patio installations, covering issues caused by installation defects such as movement from inadequate sub-base preparation, poor levels, or jointing failures. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or extreme events outside normal conditions. We also use reputable materials and follow manufacturer guidance for bedding and jointing, which helps maintain the finish. Warranty details are provided in writing with your quote.
