Your Local Landscaping Company Answers Questions on Garden Paving & Patio Laying in Banstead | Surrey Landscapes

What are the benefits of choosing block paving for a new driveway?

Block paving offers durability, a wide range of designs, and the ability to create intricate patterns; if you want our landscaping company to create a one-of-a-kind new driveway that stands out from others around Banstead, it’s unrivalled! On top of this, it's also low-maintenance and allows for easy repairs of individual blocks if needed.


How do you address drainage issues when installing a new driveway?

Proper drainage is crucial. We assess the landscape and use appropriate techniques like channel drains or permeable paving to ensure efficient water runoff and prevent water pooling on a new driveway we’ve just installed in Banstead.


What structural considerations are taken into account when building garden walls?

Our landscaping company takes the time to assess soil conditions – which can drastically differ from one Banstead property to another – potential load, and usage requirements to ensure garden walls’ structural integrity. As a Marshalls approved installer, we also will always use appropriate foundations and materials for stability.


Can you incorporate lighting or other features into garden walls?

Yes, we work alongside some of the most creative and proven electricians to offer options for integrating lighting fixtures into garden walls to enhance both aesthetics and functionality.


What advantages does natural stone paving offer for patio laying and garden paving?

Natural stone, such as Indian sandstone paving, provides a unique, natural look and withstands the typical Banstead climate well. Other reasons our landscaping swears by it for both garden paving and patio laying include the fact it's durable, non-slip, and available in various colours and textures.


How do you ensure that the patio design complements the existing landscape?

Before getting on with the patio laying itself, our team conducts on-site assessments to understand your garden's layout and design elements that harmonise with the surrounding environment for a cohesive look.


What maintenance is required for Indian sandstone versus porcelain paving?

Indian sandstone paving requires periodic sealing and cleaning, while porcelain paving is virtually maintenance-free, needing only occasional cleaning due to its non-porous nature.


Can you explain the installation process for Indian sandstone paving and porcelain paving?

The installation of these forms of garden paving involves meticulous site preparation, laying the slabs with precision, jointing, and finishing.


How does a fencing company account for slopes or uneven terrain when handling an installation?
