Patio Builders Lewes

Having a well laid out patio area will not just add extra living space to your home but can also add to your property's value. Patio areas are a highly prized feature that homeowners and buyers in Lewes covet. Homebuyers are prepared to pay a high premium for a house in Lewes with a great patio.

Shape: Shapes of patios are: Circular, Square or Free-Form. Circular patios can either be a full circle or a half circle. The full circle patio is generally independent of other hardscapes and usually feature a focal point. Half circle patios abut either a building, such as your home, or another hardscape form, like a garden wall. Circular patios blend well into landscapes since there are no hard edges that stand out. Square or rectangular patios are the most common and can blend well with formal or contemporary gardens in Lewes. If you like to entertain a lot of people, a large square or rectangular patio is a great way to go. Free-form patios are asymmetrical, less predictable, and great for more informal gardens.

Positioning: When deciding where to place your patio, it is very important to consider multiple aspects and ask yourself a few questions. What is the purpose for your patio? Do you intend to entertain large groups of people, or host intimate gatherings? Depending on the purpose of your patio, you then need to consider the proximity to your home. If you are installing a fireplace or fire pit, you need to make sure there is a good distance between your home and where the fire will be contained. You need to look at the available space in your garden. An over-sized patio will overtake a smaller garden. Another consideration is the amount of sun or shade you desire. If you plan to use your patio for sunbathing, you need to make sure it is in a sunny spot in your garden.

Size: Determining the size of your patio is very important. As stated above, a large patio can overwhelm a smaller garden, and vice versa. You can figure out how large your patio needs to be by deciding on how you intend to use it and how many people it should fit. Measure the size of your garden to see how much area you are working with, how much space you are willing to allot to your patio, etc. One good tip I've come across, is to buy your patio furniture before you install your patio, arrange it where you expect your patio to be, and observe how the space is used, where people walk, etc. This will help you see just how much room is needed for walk space around the furniture, accessories, and more.

These things are important and you will be glad that you considered all of these options before you pressed ahead and actually built your patio in Lewes. Planning is key with any project like this and it will be difficult to change things later if you get it wrong and your patio simply doesn't look right. Of course it is still possible to put things right, but not without a lot of mess and disruption. If there is anything you are not sure about there are plenty of great patio builders in Lewes who can help you.

Once you have the purpose, shape and size of your patio planned out, you can then move on to selecting appropriate paving materials. Before you jump right in and order slate tiles to go next to your pool, you need to ask yourself the following ten questions:

Patios may seem like a simple task anyone can take on, but for a great patio that you are proud of and excited to show off, a little bit of time and thought needs to be put into the planning process.

Accessorize with Plants: Plants are an idea way to accentuate and define your patio area. Consider cherry or grape tomato plants, herbs or strawberry planters as they are great decorative feature and edible solution as well. If you've got a retaining wall, consider using hanging flowers such as angel's trumpet, or climbing vines such as clematis, passion flower, honeysuckle or sweet pea. Planter baskets with pansies, petunias and geraniums. Shrubs and hedges help to divide up your space and create a definite border between your garden and patio area. In addition, they can provide an extra measure of privacy for your garden and patio area. Choosing new plants, bushes or flowers can add a facelift and a new look to your patio area in Lewes.

Decking vs Patio

Any garden or even a tiny backyard in Lewes can be transformed and improved by installing some decking or a patio. But, which is the best option?

If you happen to be restricted by a budget decking will probably be your preferred option. Decking is cheaper and frequently easier to install than a same size stone patio. Over time the maintenance costs for wooden decking can be more expensive, but much of this can be avoided with the help of composite, rot resistant materials. There will be routine yearly maintenance on both patios and decking; staining or painting, sealing surfaces etc, which is required to keep them in the best possible condition.

If you prefer a more hard wearing and durable area, this is where a patio comes out on top. Even when a patio slab breaks or cracks it doesn't normally affect its overall functionality, and it can be quickly changed by your local Lewes patio installer. A split decking plank can be dangerous and will need immediate replacement, which may not match up with the weathered decking planks already in position. Both decking and patios are super options that will provide an outdoor area for the entire family to enjoy and take pleasure in. So, if you were speculating on which is better for you - deck or patio - we hope this short article has helped.
