Carshalton’s gardens deserve paving that looks smart year-round and copes with British weather. Our porcelain patios suit everything from relaxed entertaining near Carshalton Ponds to clean-lined seating areas that complement The Grove. Expect sharp edges, consistent colour, and a surface that’s easy to keep looking fresh. We install with correct falls and drainage so your patio works as well as it looks.
We regularly work across the SM5 postcode, including Carshalton Beeches and Hackbridge, where outdoor spaces range from compact courtyards to generous family gardens. Victorian and Edwardian houses often benefit from lighter stone-effect porcelain that brightens shaded plots. 1930s semis suit contemporary formats and neat borders that echo their proportions. For period properties, we can soften the look with warm tones while keeping the finish modern and practical.
Our process starts with a site visit, measuring, levels, and a clear recommendation on layout, edging, and drainage. We excavate properly, build a stable sub-base, and bed porcelain on a full mortar layer for strength and longevity. Joints are finished with a quality grout system designed for outdoor use, helping reduce weed growth. Homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, dependable scheduling, and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
In the porcelain paving Carshalton area, we often deal with mixed ground conditions and gardens that slope gently towards the house. We plan falls, channels and soakaway options to manage surface water sensibly. Access can be tight on residential roads, so we organise deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also work with typical Sutton property layouts, keeping paths and thresholds neat and practical.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
For porcelain paving in London Borough of Sutton, most homeowners budget £90–£160 per square metre supplied and installed, depending on slab choice, cutting complexity and groundwork. Typical Carshalton patio projects often land between £3,500 and £8,000 for a well-built sub-base, bedding, jointing and finishing details. Steps, drainage channels, lighting ducts and intricate patterns will increase the overall spend.
Most porcelain paving installations take around 3–5 days, assuming reasonable access and dry enough weather for groundwork and jointing. Timescales vary with excavation depth, whether an old patio needs breaking out, and how many cuts are required around manholes, planters or curves. Larger patios, multiple levels or added features such as steps and drainage can extend the programme slightly.
In many cases, a garden patio is permitted development and won’t need planning permission, but rules can change depending on drainage, levels and whether you’re in a protected setting. Surface water should usually drain to a permeable area within your property rather than the public sewer. We’ll advise on practical drainage solutions and, if needed, help you check any relevant London Borough of Sutton requirements before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for porcelain paving installations, covering issues such as sub-base failure, poor bedding, and jointing defects arising from installation. It’s designed to give you confidence that the patio has been built correctly from the ground up. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or movement caused by factors outside our control, but we’re always happy to inspect and advise.
You can choose from contemporary large-format slabs, classic mid-size paving, and mixed-size layouts depending on the look you want. Popular options include stone-effect greys and beiges, warmer limestone-style tones, and realistic wood-effect planks for a softer feel. We’ll help you select slip-resistant finishes, matching edging, and a grout colour that complements your home, then provide a clear layout plan before installation.
