Rear Garden Patio and Landscaping Project
A bit of tender loving care can go a long way when transforming the appearance of any garden. However, no two projects are ever alike and some will naturally require more attention than others. Other elements such as the size of the area and the desires of the customer will likewise come into play. This is why those who are satisfied with nothing less than the best constantly choose the services offered by Lakestone Paving. Let us examine one of our latest success stories.
A Truly Hands-On Task
This garden was quite large, so it required a fair amount of physical intervention. Perhaps the most challenging aspect was that it had not been properly landscaped in some time. Therefore, many of the initial steps involved removing plants, weeds and similar debris. These would ultimately be replaced with turf in order to provide the property owner with a uniform and eye-catching area to relax.
Dealing with Uneven Terrain
One of the challenges which our team will face on occasion involves uneven terrain. This can cause a host of serious drainage issues and it is not always ideal from a visual perspective. This is why we opted to install a series of steps between the patio and the nearby garden; providing a unique terrace-like appearance to the entire area. These steps also served to visually “break up” the existing landscape while providing the home with a unique touch of class.
The Addition of a Custom-Made Patio
The existing patio had suffered a great deal of damage and its state was even a cause for safety concerns. It was clear that another solution would be needed. We chose to install a series of sandstone paving slabs as a viable replacement. Not only is sandstone one of the most attractive materials to use, but it is relatively easy to work with and it offers superior drainage characteristics. Our experts employed a random pattern (similar to a jigsaw puzzle) so that the design itself was entire unique. This was then complimented by stones of different hues and dimensions.
Needless to say, the client was extremely pleased with the outcome of this project. This is another clear illustration of why transforming the appearance of a garden will have a massive impact upon the property and the entire home.
