A well-laid patio turns a garden into a practical outdoor room—ideal for dining, entertaining and easy maintenance. We design and install patios across SM5, including Carshalton Beeches and near Carshalton Ponds. From compact courtyards to larger family gardens, we tailor the layout to your space and how you use it. Expect crisp edges, tidy drainage details and a finish that complements your home.
Carshalton has a mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, 1930s semis and characterful period properties, often with mature gardens and varied levels. We regularly build patio extensions to create more usable space without losing planting areas. Our designs suit traditional brickwork as well as rendered façades, with colours and jointing chosen to match. If you’re updating an older garden, we can also improve access routes and thresholds for a neater transition from house to patio.
We start with a site visit to measure, discuss materials and confirm falls for surface water. Your patio is then built on a properly compacted sub-base with the right bedding and jointing system for the chosen slab. We keep disruption low, protect existing features, and leave the site clean at the end of each day. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, reliable scheduling and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
We understand the practicalities of patios in London Borough of Sutton, including access constraints on residential streets and the need for considerate waste removal. Gardens around The Grove and Carshalton House can include mature trees, meaning shade and leaf fall influence material choice and jointing. We also account for mixed ground conditions and ensure the sub-base is built to suit, not guessed. Where parking is limited, we plan deliveries to keep the job moving without blocking neighbours.

For patios carshalton area, most installations fall between £70–£150 per square metre, depending on the slab type, site access and groundwork required. Typical total spend is often £2,800–£7,500 for a well-built patio including excavation, sub-base, bedding, jointing and waste removal. Natural stone and porcelain usually sit at the higher end, while simpler layouts can reduce labour time.
Most patio projects take 3–5 days from excavation to final jointing, assuming average size and straightforward access. Timescales can change if we’re removing old concrete, building steps or retaining edges, or if the garden has awkward levels. Weather can also affect curing and jointing. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after the site survey and keep you updated throughout the build.
In many cases, a rear garden patio is permitted development and doesn’t need planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, working near boundaries, or if your property is listed or within a conservation area. Drainage is also important—water should soak away within your garden rather than run to the highway. We’ll flag any likely issues and advise what to check before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our patio installation workmanship, covering issues such as sinking caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, movement from poor bedding, or jointing failure due to incorrect application. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or problems caused by third-party alterations after completion. We also recommend appropriate care products for porcelain and natural stone to keep the finish looking its best.
We install natural stone patios, porcelain patios, Indian sandstone, slate and limestone, as well as patio extensions to match existing areas. Popular choices include large-format porcelain for a clean, modern look, or Indian sandstone for warmer, traditional character. We’ll help you choose colours, slab sizes, edging details and jointing to suit your home and garden light levels. If needed, we can add steps, curves or planting borders for a softer layout.
