Space for real life
Allow room for seating, dining and comfortable movement around furniture.
Choose your character
Explore porcelain or natural stone for a finish that complements the house and garden.
Plan the connections
Discuss steps, thresholds, adjoining paths and drainage before installation.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Your patios questions, answered.
Every site is different. These are starting points for a conversation about yours.
How large should my patio be?
Think about the table and chairs you want to use, circulation space and how the patio connects to the garden. Share these priorities when discussing the layout.
Porcelain or natural stone?
Both appear in Ardent’s published paving offer. Appearance, texture, cleaning needs, budget and site suitability should guide the choice. Ask to see available options.
Can you replace my old patio?
Discuss replacement or possible lifting and relaying with Ardent. The existing paving, base and drainage need assessment before the right approach can be agreed.
Do levels and drainage need changing?
They may do. The site assessment should consider the relationship between the patio, the house and the garden, including how rainfall will drain.
How much will a new patio cost?
Size, materials, access, removal of old paving, preparation and any steps or drainage work affect the quote. There is no fixed price advertised in this draft.
