How much does patio & paving cost in Cheam?

Patio cost depends on the paving material and how much excavation and base-building the site needs. Porcelain costs more than sandstone but needs almost no upkeep. We quote materials and labour separately so the choice is yours. Every Cheam garden is different, so we always quote after seeing your space rather than over the phone.

Why local matters for patio & paving in Cheam

Choosing a team that already works across Cheam and SM2, SM3 means we understand the gardens here — the loam over clay ground, the style of the local properties, and what makes patio & paving last in this part of London. We're regularly in Cheam and neighbouring Worcester Park and Banstead, so a visit is easy to arrange.

The base is the patio

We excavate to the correct depth, lay and compact a structural sub-base, and bed every slab on a full mortar bed rather than five spot blobs. Full-bed laying is what stops slabs rocking, cracking and staining, and it is the corner most often cut.

Falls, drainage and the damp course

Every patio is laid with a slight fall so water runs away from your house, never toward it, and we keep paving the correct distance below the damp-proof course. Get this wrong and you invite damp into the building; we design it in from the start.
