Whether you’re looking to enhance your garden, patio, or driveway, our team uses high-quality materials and expert techniques to create stunning paved areas that stand the test of time. Here’s how we approach the stone and paving process.
Step 1 - Prep / Setting out
The first step in any successful stone and paving project is thorough preparation and setting out. We begin by assessing the site to determine the appropriate layout and design, taking into account factors such as drainage, slope, and intended use. Our team carefully clears the area of any debris, vegetation, and old paving materials, creating a clean slate for the new installation.
We then set out the area using precision measurements and marking tools to establish the layout and design of the paving. This involves planning the pattern and orientation of the stones to achieve a visually appealing result. Our careful preparation and setting out ensure that the paving project proceeds smoothly and accurately, laying the groundwork for a flawless finish.
Step 2 - Laying Stone
Once the area is prepared, we begin laying the stone. Our customers select high-quality stones that suit the aesthetic and functional needs of the project, whether it's natural stone, granite, concrete pavers, or others. We lay each stone with precision, ensuring they are level and properly aligned according to the planned design.
We use a suitable bedding material, such as sand or mortar, to secure the stones in place and provide stability. This step is crucial for creating a durable surface that can withstand foot traffic and environmental conditions. Our meticulous attention to detail during the laying process ensures that your paved area is not only beautiful but also built to last.
Step 3 - Grouting
After the stones are laid, we proceed with grouting to fill the joints between them. We use high-quality grout that is designed for outdoor use, providing excellent resistance to moisture, weathering, and wear. Our team applies the grout carefully, ensuring it penetrates fully into the joints and creates a seamless finish.
Grouting not only enhances the appearance of the paved surface but also adds stability and strength by locking the stones in place. Proper grouting prevents water ingress and weed growth, helping to maintain the integrity and appearance of your paving over time. With our expert grouting techniques, we deliver a polished and durable finish that complements the overall design of your outdoor space.
