Crystal Palace gardens deserve surfaces that cope with busy family life and changeable weather. Our porcelain patios are a popular choice around Upper Norwood and SE19, offering a sleek, contemporary look with excellent slip resistance. Whether you’re refreshing a tired terrace or creating a new entertaining space, we build patios that feel solid underfoot and stay easy to clean. We’re also used to working near Crystal Palace Park and its well-loved dinosaur statues, where access and levels can be tricky.
Local homes here—Victorian villas, Edwardian houses and period conversions—often have raised gardens, steps and narrow side returns. We design porcelain paving to suit those proportions, keeping joints neat and thresholds tidy. In the porcelain paving Crystal Palace area, we regularly match new patios to original brickwork, bay windows and classic garden walls. If you’re in Anerley, Penge or Gipsy Hill, we can recommend colours and formats that suit both traditional and modern extensions.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels check and a clear written quote, then careful excavation and a robust sub-base built for longevity. We install porcelain on a full mortar bed with correct falls and drainage, then finish with quality jointing for a clean, durable surface. Homeowners choose us for punctual scheduling, tidy working practices and straightforward communication from start to finish. For porcelain paving in London Borough of Bromley/Croydon/Lambeth/Southwark/Lewisham, we also help you navigate access, parking and waste removal so the job runs smoothly.
Crystal Palace’s hilltop plots often mean sloping gardens, retaining edges and multiple levels, so we set accurate falls and manage drainage carefully. Parking and access can be tight around SE20 streets, so we plan deliveries and waste collection to minimise disruption. We also consider boundary walls, shared paths and period details common to Upper Norwood properties. Where council requirements apply, we keep the build compliant and the site orderly.

For Porcelain Paving in Crystal Palace, most homeowners budget £90–£160 per square metre depending on tile choice, cutting complexity and groundwork. Typical patio projects often land around £3,500–£8,000, influenced by access, removal of old paving, steps, drainage channels and edging details. We’ll measure up, confirm levels and provide a clear itemised quote so you can compare like-for-like.
Most porcelain patio installations take 3–5 days, assuming straightforward access and average site conditions. Timescales can extend if we’re removing old concrete, rebuilding levels, adding steps, or installing drainage to manage runoff on Crystal Palace’s slopes. Weather can also affect curing time for the bedding and jointing materials. We’ll agree a schedule in advance and keep you updated daily.
Porcelain patios in rear gardens are usually permitted development, so planning permission is not commonly required. However, rules can vary across the London Borough of Bromley, Croydon, Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham, especially for listed buildings, flats, or properties in conservation areas. Drainage is also important—surfaces should not cause runoff onto public highways. We’ll flag any concerns and advise what checks are sensible before work starts.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our porcelain paving installations, covering issues such as movement caused by poor sub-base preparation, loose tiles, and jointing failure under normal use. It’s designed to give you confidence that the patio has been built correctly from the ground up. Manufacturer warranties on tiles can vary by brand, and we’ll confirm those details when you choose your materials.
You can choose from contemporary large-format slabs, classic stone-effect porcelain (grey, beige, or charcoal), and realistic wood-effect planks for a warmer look. We also offer slip-resistant options suited to shaded gardens and family spaces. During design, we’ll help you select the right size, colour and grout tone, plus edging and step details, so the patio complements your home’s period features and garden layout.
