Patios Sittingbourne


Patio in Sittingbourne: Here are a few of our choicest options- 

  • Clay bricks: If you want to keep the style and design of your home historical and nostalgic, then clay bricks are the one for you. Not to forget the diverse number of designs that can be created, especially geometric ones. Clay bricks shall last for a long time, but their only downside is their price. You can opt for other bricks or reclaimed bricks, too, in order to keep the pricing within budget. 
  • Concrete: Patios made out of concrete are known to last a lifetime if well-maintained. We can add patterns to your concrete patio using stamps and add colour, too, using dyes. Concrete patios have a clean look and are befitting for you if you want a sophisticated finish. 
  • Stone slates: Tiles cut out of stone slates is the way to make stone slate patios. Stones have texture, pattern and colour added to them to give a classic finish. Stones like marble look ethereal when used in patios but can be expensive. Travertine can be a cheaper option. 
  • Tiles: An excellent choice for patios is tiled. They are long-lasting, give a clean look, are available in different colours, textures and designs and are quite comfortable for kids too. The only drawback is that they can become slippery. 
  • Flagstones: These stones are elegant in every way. They are thick and found in irregular shapes- exactly wherein lies their beauty. Their only drawback is they absorb heat during summers and get slippery during the rainy season, but proper care can help. 

 

Things to consider:

Choosing and installing patios need a lot of elements to consider, like longevity, quality, aesthetics, price, and durability. If there are kids, slippery surfaces are best avoided.
