In short

Patios in Woburn Sands, answered.

Yes, Terry lays patios in Woburn Sands. Many plots on the ridge slope, so a patio here often starts with levelling, a retaining wall and steps before a slab goes down, all priced in the same written quote. The newer houses towards Wavendon have small level gardens where it is simpler.

Woburn Sands (MK17) is about 20 minutes' drive from central Milton Keynes. All about Woburn Sands: the parts we cover, the council and the other rules.

Local knowledge

What is different about patio in Woburn Sands.

On a sloping plot the patio is built as a level platform, held by a retaining wall on a concrete footing at least 300mm deep, with steps that all have the same rise, between 150mm and 180mm.

The sandy ground drains well, but every patio is still laid with a gentle slope away from the house, at least 150mm below the damp course, with a channel drain where the ground needs it.

The Victorian and Edwardian villas on the ridge suit Indian sandstone; porcelain suits the newer houses towards Wavendon.

Most gardens are reached from a large plot with room for the van and a skip. The conservation area around the High Street cares more about the front of a house than the back.

On the flatter gardens towards Wavendon Gate, a patio the width of the house needs no retaining at all, so the time goes into the base and a clean, tight finish instead.

Patios in Woburn Sands: questions people ask.

Can you build a patio on a sloping garden in Woburn Sands?

Yes. The retaining wall goes on a concrete footing, the steps all have the same rise, and it is all in one written price.

How long will a patio with steps take?

Two to four days for most patios. With retaining walls and steps it can run to a week; Terry gives you the day count with your written quote.

Is sandy ground a problem for a patio?

No. It drains well, which helps, and the patio still goes on 100mm of compacted stone and a full mortar bed so nothing moves.

The build and the price

The same standard in every town.

The layers, the written quote and the guarantee do not change from town to town, so they live on one page.

“Just had an old, tired and worn out path replaced with resin bound gravel. It is fair to say that it has transformed the whole area. Terry was easy to deal with, and was very prompt in supplying a competitive quote, as well as organising and completing the work quickly. After preparing the area he…”
