Patio & Paving in Epsom
Epsom mixes period market-town homes with established suburban roads, so gardens here are wonderfully varied. We cover the whole KT17–KT19 area, from Victorian rear gardens to larger plots up toward the Downs. When it comes to patio & paving in Epsom, that local knowledge matters: Closer to Epsom Downs the ground turns chalky and free-draining, which suits chalk-loving planting, while the valley areas hold more moisture, we plant to suit each.
Why local matters for patio & paving in Epsom
Choosing a team that already works across Epsom and KT17, KT18, KT19 means we understand the gardens here — the chalk-to-clay ground, the style of the local properties, and what makes patio & paving last in this part of Surrey. We're regularly in Epsom and neighbouring Banstead and Cheam, 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.
