Patio & Paving in Esher
Esher's leafy roads and generous plots mean gardens here are often a real feature of the property rather than an afterthought. We work across the KT10 area on everything from compact townhouse courtyards to substantial family gardens. When it comes to patio & paving in Esher, that local knowledge matters: Many Esher gardens sit on heavier ground near the Mole valley but lighter, sandier soil toward the commons, so we tailor planting and drainage to the specific plot.
Why local matters for patio & paving in Esher
Choosing a team that already works across Esher and KT10 means we understand the gardens here — the mixed clay-to-sandy ground, the style of the local properties, and what makes patio & paving last in this part of Surrey. We're regularly in Esher and neighbouring Cobham and Oxshott, 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.
