A well-built patio transforms how you use your garden, from morning coffee to weekend barbecues. We design and install patios across Orpington, including BR5 and BR6, with finishes that suit both traditional and modern homes. Whether you’re near Orpington station or popping into The Walnuts Shopping Centre, we keep the project organised and disruption low. Expect clean lines, solid sub-bases and drainage that works in heavy rain.
Orpington’s mix of 1930s semis, detached houses and newer estates often calls for practical, low-maintenance outdoor spaces. Many gardens benefit from a level seating area, a safe step down from the back door, or a patio extension to create a larger entertaining zone. We regularly work in Petts Wood, St Mary Cray and Farnborough, tailoring layouts to the shape and slope of each plot. The result is a patio that looks right for the property and functions brilliantly.
We start with a site visit to measure, discuss materials and confirm levels, access and drainage. Your patio is then built with a proper sub-base, accurate falls, and careful jointing for long-term stability. We protect paths and lawns, keep the site tidy, and provide clear updates throughout the job. Homeowners choose us for dependable workmanship, transparent pricing, and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Across the London Borough of Bromley, gardens can have variable clay-heavy ground, so we prioritise sub-base depth and compaction. Access and parking around the High Street and near Orpington station can be tight, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Many Orpington homes have side access typical of 1930s semis, which helps with efficient material handling. We also design around mature planting and boundary levels common in established streets.

For patios in the Orpington area, typical pricing is £70–£150 per square metre depending on the material, groundwork and detailing. Many homeowners spend around £2,800–£7,500 for a complete installation, including excavation, sub-base, laying and jointing. Porcelain and premium natural stone usually sit at the higher end, while simpler layouts and easier access can reduce costs. We’ll confirm a tailored estimate after a site visit.
Most patio projects take 3–5 days from start to finish, assuming straightforward access and fair weather. Timescales can change based on the size of the patio, the amount of excavation needed, steps or retaining edges, and whether you’re adding a patio extension. Porcelain often needs more cutting and precision, which can add time. We’ll agree a schedule before work begins and keep you updated daily.
In many cases, a new garden patio is permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, affecting drainage to the public highway, or working near listed buildings or within special designations. We also ensure surface water is managed correctly, using suitable falls and drainage where needed. We’ll flag any potential Bromley Council considerations during the survey and advise on the safest route.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our patio installations, covering workmanship such as sub-base preparation, laying standards and jointing performance under normal use. This helps protect you against issues like rocking slabs caused by inadequate bedding or poor compaction. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or movement from external factors beyond our control. We’ll also share care guidance to keep your patio looking its best.
We install Natural Stone Patios and Porcelain Patios, with popular options including Indian sandstone, slate and limestone. Design choices range from clean contemporary porcelain with slim joints to warm, riven sandstone with traditional edging. We can also build patio extensions to link doors, lawns and seating areas smoothly. During the consultation we’ll show samples, discuss slip resistance and maintenance, and help you pick a layout that suits your home and budget.
