Trusted Patio Installers in Trafford M16

Nice & Tidy Landscaping designs and lays patios and garden paths for homeowners in Trafford and across Greater Manchester. We are a family-run business based in Failsworth.

A patio should sit level, shed water away from the house and stay put for years. That comes down to the dig, a compacted sub-base, a full mortar bed and a fall worked out before the first slab goes down.

Patio Materials We Lay in Trafford

Each material has its own look, cost and care needs. We will show you options at the free visit.

Porcelain Patio Installation

Dense, low-porosity tiles that resist staining and suit a clean, modern look. Porcelain needs the right primer and bed to bond properly.

Indian Sandstone Patios

Natural stone with varied colour and riven texture. Sealing is optional and many people like how it weathers.

Granite Paving

A very hard natural stone with a smart, even finish that works well for patios and paths alike.

Block Paving Patios

Small units laid in patterns, handy for curves and for matching a block paved drive.

Resin Bound Patio Surfaces

A smooth, seamless and permeable finish, laid over a suitable base, that suits curved and modern spaces.

Marble & Natural Stone Flagstones

Characterful natural flags for a traditional or high-end finish, each laid by hand to make the most of the stone.

Pattern Imprinted Concrete Patios

Concrete poured and stamped with a pattern, giving one continuous surface with no joints for weeds.

Tarmac & Asphalt Patios

A practical, hard-wearing surface for larger or working areas, finished with neat edging.

Gravel & Shingle Patio Areas

A low-cost, free-draining option over a weed membrane, ideal for seating corners and side areas.

How we carry out the work

How We Lay a Patio

No pressure at any stage, and nothing is booked until you have the price in writing.

Plan the layout

We agree the size, shape, levels and fall with you, keeping the finished height below the damp course.

Dig and base

The area is excavated and a crushed stone sub-base is laid and compacted.

Lay on a full bed

Each slab is bedded on a full mortar bed, checked for level and fall, and cut neatly at the edges.

Point and clean

Joints are pointed, the patio is cleaned down and all waste is taken away.

Good to know

FAQs about our Trafford Patios services

Which patio material is best?

It depends on the look you want, your budget and how much care you want to give it. Porcelain is very low-maintenance, natural stone has more character and gravel is the most budget-friendly. We will explain the options at the visit.

Will my patio need planning permission?

Most garden patios do not, but rules can apply to front gardens and to raised areas. If in doubt, check with your local council before work starts.

How long does a patio take to lay?

A typical back garden patio usually takes a few days, depending on size, levels and access. We will give you a realistic idea with your quote.

Do you lay garden paths as well?

Yes. We lay paths in the same materials as our patios and often build them as one job, so they match and share the same base.
