Patios
Patios in Moffat
Moffat has many older stone-built houses and villas, and a patio beside them has to suit the house as well as the garden. We shape the layout around the space and how you want to use it, and help you choose paving that works with the character of the property.
Homes in Moffat
Moffat is a small spa town in Annandale, surrounded by hills, and many of its houses and villas are older and stone-built. That makes the paving worth choosing with care: we offer a range of colours, combinations and layouts, so the patio can complement the stonework rather than compete with it. Older stone and new paving need to sit together comfortably, so it helps to think about the look you want early on. The photo shows a finished porcelain patio in a landscaped garden, an example of our own work.
What matters for patios in Moffat
Patios in Moffat are planned around the size of the garden and what you want from it, whether that is eating outdoors, having guests or simply a tidier space. We help settle the layout and the paving, and the patio can be coordinated with any adjoining paving or landscaping so the garden looks considered from end to end.
- Pick a paving colour and pattern that suits an older stone house or villa.
- If you want paths, lawn or other paving changed at the same time, the patio can be designed to fit with them.
- Levels are part of the plan: the surface needs a small slope down and away from the house, so rainwater drains off.
Questions about patios in Moffat
How do I get a quote for a patio in Moffat?
Get in touch with the approximate size of the area and what you want the patio for. Moffat is about 24 miles north-west of our base, and knowing those details lets us talk through the job properly.
What is underneath a patio, and why does it matter?
The ground beneath the paving has a big part to play. A patio will last longest on a sub-base that has been dug out properly and compacted, so it deserves as much attention as the paving you see.
Could the path to the front door be paved too?
Paving can be used for paths and entrances as well as seating areas, either by itself or within a larger garden scheme, so it is worth mentioning a path when you ask for a quote.
