If your patio is tired, uneven or constantly needing upkeep, porcelain is a practical upgrade that looks sharp year-round. We install premium porcelain paving across BR4, including projects near West Wickham High Street and Coney Hall. Expect clean lines, consistent colour and a surface that’s designed to resist staining and algae. It’s a great fit for dining areas, pathways and modern garden layouts.
West Wickham’s mix of 1930s semis, larger detached houses and newer developments suits porcelain particularly well, especially where homeowners want a contemporary finish without the maintenance of natural stone. We regularly work on rear gardens with side access and family-friendly layouts, including properties towards Spring Park and the edges of open countryside. Our team helps you choose sizes, colours and laying patterns that complement brickwork, render and existing landscaping. The result feels considered, not “off the shelf”.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage and access, then provide a clear written quotation. Installation includes proper excavation, a stable sub-base, accurate falls and professional jointing for a neat finish. We protect lawns and borders where possible and keep the site tidy throughout. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, meticulous detailing and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Across the London Borough of Bromley, gardens often need careful levelling to manage rainwater and avoid water sitting near the house. In West Wickham, access can be tight on some 1930s plots, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and parking to minimise disruption. We also factor in existing steps, air bricks and damp-proof course heights when setting finished patio levels. Our approach is tailored to the property, not a one-size-fits-all method.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
For porcelain paving in the West Wickham area, budgets typically fall between £90 and £160 per square metre depending on tile choice, ground preparation and edging details. Most patio installations come out around £3,500 to £8,000 for an average-sized garden seating area. Costs vary with excavation depth, drainage requirements, access for materials, and whether you add steps, lighting channels or matching pathways.
Most porcelain patio projects take 3–5 days from excavation to final clean-down, assuming reasonable access and dry weather. Timescales can extend if we need deeper dig-outs, additional drainage, retaining edges, or complex cuts around manholes and existing features. Larger areas, multiple levels, or intricate patterns also add time. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after measuring and checking ground conditions on site.
Porcelain patios are usually permitted development for UK homes, so planning permission is not normally required. However, rules can change if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if the work affects drainage in a way that increases runoff. We’ll advise on best practice for falls and water management and can flag anything that may need checking with the London Borough of Bromley before work begins.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our porcelain paving installations, covering issues such as movement caused by inadequate base preparation, poor jointing, or incorrect levels and falls. The warranty applies when the patio is used normally and maintained sensibly. Porcelain itself is also highly durable, and any manufacturer product guarantees on the slabs remain in place. We’ll explain what’s covered in writing before starting.
You can choose from contemporary large-format slabs, subtle concrete looks, and popular stone-effect and wood-effect porcelain. Many homeowners opt for slip-resistant (R11) finishes for year-round confidence. We’ll guide you on colours that suit your brickwork and planting, recommend sizes to make the space feel larger, and suggest laying patterns such as straight lay, staggered or mixed-size modular designs to match your garden style.
