Natural Stone Patios Essex - Frequently Asked Questions
Is natural stone better than concrete paving?
Both can look great when installed properly. Natural stone offers a more unique, premium finish with individual tones and textures, while concrete paving can be more uniform. We can talk you through the pros and cons for your garden.
How long will a natural stone patio last?
With the correct base, good quality materials and proper pointing, a natural stone patio can last many years. We always install on a solid sub-base to help prevent movement and sinking.
Is natural stone slippery when wet?
Most natural stone products used for patios have a textured or riven surface, which offers good grip. We will recommend suitable stones for areas that may get wet more often, such as around pools or shaded gardens.
Can you replace my old patio with natural stone?
Yes. We can remove your existing patio, dispose of waste and rebuild the area with a new natural stone design, improving both appearance and practicality.
