FAQ

Stonework, Patios & Driveways questions, answered.

Do I need planning for a driveway?

Usually not, provided it uses permeable material or drains to a soakaway. We will check before quoting.

How long does a typical patio take?

A 30 to 50 square metre patio with a proper sub-base is a one- to two-week job. Bigger or stepped patios run longer.

What do you mean by traditional pointing?

Hand-finished pointing with the right mortar mix for the property and the right finish for the period, instead of butter joints with a spirit level.
