A good patio is where the garden and the house become the same room. We design and build porcelain, Indian sandstone and polished-stone terraces that sit precisely with the house they belong to.

We visit, listen, measure, and take levels.
Material samples, bond patterns and a fixed itemised quote.
Mortar bed, permeable base, falls set to the millimetre.
Full clean, seal and a 5-year workmanship guarantee.
Phil and the team transformed our sloping back garden into a proper sunken entertaining space. The porcelain terrace is flawless and the outdoor kitchen gets used at least twice a week — even in October. Communication was excellent throughout and the build ran exactly to the programme we were quoted.
Replaced a tired deck with a large-format porcelain terrace and a slatted Iroko screen. The finish is remarkable — clean lines, immaculate jointing and a thoughtful approach to lighting. Urban's team are proper craftsmen, not landscapers who'll have a go at stonework.
Most terraces take 2–3 weeks once on site. Larger schemes with lighting or levels can run 4–6 weeks.
Rarely. Patios at grade almost never need planning. We'll flag it at survey if yours is an exception.
A Type 1 MOT sub-base, compacted in layers, with a permeable detail where we can — we hate standing water.
Porcelain is lower maintenance and frost-proof; sandstone is warmer and weathers in. We often suggest porcelain near pools and sandstone near older houses.
Yes — a 5-year workmanship guarantee plus the manufacturer's product warranty on the stone.
Usually yes. We'll bring matched samples to the survey.
