Paving for the perfect patio
Published: 25th July 2008 | Author: Tom Klein
Do you have a client who’s after the perfect patio? Whether you’re a builder or a landscape gardener, you want to find paving stones that give your client the look they’re after but are the quality you need to be able to do your job properly.
Picking your paving
Of course, in most cases, it’s your client who’ll be picking the paving stones, but in many cases, they want to be guided by you and your expertise. Having access to a wide range of outdoor paving supplies means that you can help your client to find the paving that’s right for them, including:
• Shaped paving – if you want to create a paved area that’s a little different from the traditional rectangle, you might want to consider shaped paving stones. These could let you build an octagonal-shaped seating area, or use circular paving stones to create a stepping-stone effect in the garden.
• Contemporary paving – if your clients want a minimalist look, you might need to source paving that will give them the modern look they’re after. Black granite , or white paving can create a real focal point in the garden, particularly if they are set off by the planting nearby, or complemented by modern garden furniture.
• Poolside paving – many homeowners are considering adding pools if they have space in their garden. Whilst they might need specialist tiling right next to the pool, the seating and sun-bed area is nearly always traditional paving. Depending on the size of the pool, this could be a large area so you would need good quality paving that also doesn’t break the bank.
• Traditional paving – after years where decking was the most popular garden product, many people are choosing to put patios and paved spaces back into their garden. What they want is a clean, fresh-looking paving area that’s easy to maintain.
Having the ability to give your clients the widest possible choice on paving is clearly important to you, as is being able to choose and order your paving easily and knowing that delivery will be quick and accurate.
