What patio tiling covers
New patio builds from ground preparation through to grouted finish, path tiling along garden edges and side returns, and step tiling where levels change across the plot. Existing slabs can be lifted and relaid if the base has settled unevenly.
Labour starts at £70 per m². Materials vary widely depending on slab choice, so they are priced after seeing the site and agreeing the spec rather than padded into the labour rate.
How a patio project runs
A free site visit first, then a written quote splitting labour from materials. Most domestic patios in Cambridge take two to three days once materials arrive. Larger areas and step work run longer and are scheduled properly rather than squeezed between maintenance rounds.
Multi-day landscaping projects start at £950. Anything involving drainage, retaining walls or access constraints is quoted after the visit rather than estimated over the phone.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Labour starts at £70 per m². Materials are quoted separately after a free site visit because slab prices vary from budget concrete to natural stone. A typical 15m² back patio therefore starts around £1,050 for labour alone, plus the slabs you choose.
Materials are sourced after agreeing the spec with you and priced at cost rather than marked up. You are welcome to supply your own slabs if you prefer. Either way the quote shows labour and materials as separate lines.
Most domestic patios in the CB1 to CB5 area take two to three days once materials are on site. Larger areas, step work or anything requiring drainage adjustments may run longer. The timeline is confirmed in the written quote.
Yes. Path tiling along side returns and garden edges, and step tiling where levels change, are both priced at the same £70 per m² labour rate. Steps require more preparation per square metre, which is reflected in the site quote.
