Patios & terraces in Caterham
A valley town on the dip slope of the North Downs. Steep gardens are common — and with them, the retaining and levelling work that makes them usable.
Patios & terraces in Caterham
A well-built terrace should sit flush with the threshold, shed water invisibly, and feel level underfoot twenty years on. We lay in natural stone, porcelain and clay paver on full mortar beds over engineered sub-bases — specified to the site, not to a standard template.
Our process
- 01
Site survey — measure the space, check levels, note drainage and access constraints.
- 02
Specification — choose materials from samples, agree layout, confirm dimensions in writing.
- 03
Groundworks — excavate to formation, lay and compact the sub-base, set falls for drainage.
- 04
Laying — bed the paving on full mortar, cut to line, point in the specified style.
- 05
Finish and handover — clean down, review against specification, hand over care notes.
Materials we use
- Indian sandstone (riven and sawn)
- Yorkstone
- Limestone
- 20mm external-grade porcelain
- Clay pavers
- Granite setts for edging and borders
Typical timeline
Two to four weeks on site, depending on area and complexity.
About Caterham
1930s and post-war houses on sloping plots. Many gardens need structural work before anything decorative goes in.

Common questions
Stone weathers and develops character; porcelain stays consistent and cleans more easily. Walk on both before you decide — the feel underfoot is as important as the look.
