Project Overview: Comprehensive Patio and Landscape Renovation in Burnley

Client: Residental Property, Burnley, UK
Project Type: Patio Renovation, Fencing, and Drainage System Installation
Completion: 2 weeks

The team here at Lakestone Paving has successfully completed an extensive renovation project for a private residence in Burnley. This complex project not only revitalised the property’s patio and garden areas but also included significant improvements to its fencing and drainage systems, enhancing both the functionality and aesthetics of the outdoor space. Lets begin by showcasing some of the finised images below in a gallery.

Project Patio Task:

Patio Transformation:

    • Before: The initial state of the patio was uninspiring, with worn-out slabs that had lost their aesthetic appeal and functionality.
    • After: We installed new, high-quality paving stones that provide a robust and attractive surface. The choice of subtly varied hues complements the natural surroundings and the property’s exterior, giving the space a fresh, modern look while retaining its classic charm.

Key Project Elements:

Fencing Installation: A brand-new fence was erected, designed to offer both privacy and security. The use of high-grade materials ensures durability against weather elements, providing a lasting boundary that blends seamlessly with the garden’s aesthetic. The fence features a lattice top, which adds a decorative touch and allows light to pass through, maintaining an open, airy feel around the property’s perimeter.

Brickwork and Copings: The existing brick walls were carefully restored and reinforced, maintaining the property’s character and ensuring structural integrity. Replacement of the old wall copings with new ones, tailored to direct water flow efficiently and prevent water retention, which can lead to structural damage over time.

Advanced Drainage System:  A critical aspect of the project was the installation of an underground drainage system to effectively manage water runoff, especially important in areas like Burnley which can experience significant rainfall.  Incorporated throughout the garden to enhance soil drainage, preventing waterlogging and safeguarding the health of the garden’s plant life.

Project Highlights and Innovations:

  • Integrated Drainage Solutions: The implementation of an advanced drainage system using perforated pipes is particularly notable. This system ensures that excess water is efficiently channeled away from the patio and garden areas, reducing maintenance and preventing potential water damage.
  • Attention to Detail: Every aspect of the renovation, from the choice of materials to the execution of construction techniques, was handled with meticulous care to ensure the highest quality outcomes.
  • Customised Aesthetics: The project involved significant customisation to match the homeowner’s preferences and the home’s architectural style, resulting in a cohesive and highly personalised outdoor space.

This project by Lakestone Paving in Burnley stands as a testament to our ability to handle complex, multifaceted outdoor renovation projects that go beyond simple aesthetics to include functional improvements. The transformation of the patio, the new fencing, and the sophisticated drainage system come together to dramatically enhance the usability and enjoyment of the outdoor living space, ensuring that the property is not only beautiful but also practical for everyday use.
