New Patios in Navan

In Navan, as anywhere, a good patio fits the way the garden is used. The design work starts with where you want the table, where the sun sits in the evening and how you come out of the back door, and the size, shape and levels are settled with you before the ground is opened.

Stone choice is made in your own garden. Porcelain, granite and limestone samples are brought to the FREE design visit so you can see how the light in your Navan garden changes each one: porcelain clean and even, granite tough and finely speckled, limestone the soft blue-grey of many Irish gardens.

If you step down from the house onto the patio, the steps and edge pieces can be laid in the same stone so the finish carries through.

The area is dug out and a compacted base built, and the slabs are fully bedded with no hollow spots. A gentle fall sends rain away from your walls, and the installation is covered by a 5-year warranty.

How It Works

How a New Patio Is Built

  1. Plan the Layout

    Your garden is measured and the patio's size, shape and levels agreed with you, with samples to look at on site.

  2. Dig Out

    The existing lawn or paving is cleared and the ground dug out to take a solid base.

  3. Base & Falls

    Compaction gives the base its strength, and it is set to fall gently away from the house.

  4. Lay & Point

    The slabs go down to the agreed layout, cut where required, and the joints are pointed.

  5. Final Check Together

    We go over the completed patio with you and confirm everything has been done exactly as agreed.

FAQs

Patios FAQs for Navan

Do You Lay Patios in Navan?

Which Patio Stone Is Best for an Irish Garden?

Laid on a proper base, all three cope with Irish weather. Pick porcelain if you want the easiest cleaning, granite if hard wear is the priority, or limestone for a classic blue-grey finish. Samples are brought to your garden at the visit, so you can compare them in your own light.

Will a Porcelain Patio Be Slippery in the Rain?

Outdoor porcelain is manufactured with a textured surface for wet-weather grip. Its slip resistance is graded on an R scale, and most suppliers treat R11 as the minimum for garden use, with outdoor slabs generally 20mm thick. You can feel the surface of every sample at the visit before making a choice.

How Big Should My Patio Be?

Work out the furniture you plan to use, then leave space around it for people to move and chairs to slide back. At the visit the outline is marked out on the ground with you, so you can see the size for yourself before digging.

What Affects the Cost of a New Patio?

The key factors are the area to be paved, the stone you choose, the amount of excavation and base needed, and features like steps or edge pieces. Porcelain is slower to cut, which affects labour. After the FREE site visit you receive a clear quote, and payment is due on completion with no deposit.

Can the Patio Be Level With My Back Door?

It sits just below the threshold rather than flush, with a gentle fall away from the house built in. The result is that rain drains across the patio and away from the back door instead of towards it. These levels are agreed with you before any work begins.

How Much Fall Should a Patio Have?

Patio laying guides generally recommend a drop of 1 in 60, roughly 17mm per metre, away from the house. For very smooth porcelain some suppliers suggest one in eighty. The fall on your patio, and the point the water drains to, is worked out and agreed with you at the visit.

Can You Lay a Patio Over My Old Slabs?

No. The old slabs and the bed they sit on are lifted first, so nothing that has failed underneath is carried into your new patio. It is then laid on a base that has been freshly dug out and compacted.

Does a New Patio Need Sealing?

Porcelain doesn't need sealing because it is non-porous. Granite asks for little more than sweeping and an occasional wash. Limestone may be sealed to help stains come off more easily, but it is not essential, and the pros and cons are explained when you choose your stone.

Is There a Warranty on a New Patio?

Yes. A 5-year warranty comes with every new patio installation, and the slabs are covered separately by the manufacturer's warranty. Quotes come without small print, no deposit is taken, and you pay when the patio is complete, though larger projects may be split into stage payments.

How Can I Tell a Patio Has Been Laid Well?

Walk the patio: no slab should rock and water should not sit in puddles after rain. Adjoining slabs should be level to within about 2mm, the usual guideline, and joints should be evenly and fully pointed. Paving should also finish no less than 150mm under the damp proof course except at doorways, and air bricks should never be covered.
