Verandahs & Decks landscape design

Patio Paving Advice

4 years ago

Hello!
We have just had our pavers laid for our back patio and I’m unsure of the finishing and wanted to check if my expectations are out of line.

The pavers are laid in different directions in the two sections. Do you think this looks good? (See photo 2)
The pavers don’t finish to the edge of our pool area. Should I ask the paving contractor to come back? (See photo 3)
Thanks!

a thin layer of gravel in a border of your left over bricks would be quick, cheap and OK to walk on if the under surface is level and compacted..or giant concrete pavers or new railway sleepers could look interesting and re-use as many of the existing bricks as possible to connect with the area outside

Definitely decking over paving, nothing like a natural timber look and feel!

The blue tiles are lovely and, like annb1997, I immediately liked the blue paint. It's a great shade The tiles may be overpowering in a large space Consider tiling just the risers of the steps This will give the pattern you enjoy as well as making a safety feature A panel of tiles at each side of the front door could look good too! Enjoy

You're right, they do look amazing . I'm not sure why my husband didn't want to re-use them, I think he wanted a more modern look, and now they have been sold, so not an option, unfortunately. Thanks for your comment though. I'll show him these lovely pictures, cheers.
