Patio Contractors in West Wickham
Patios in West Wickham — London Borough of Bromley
West Wickham's long rear gardens suit a two-part layout: a generous terrace by the house for eating and sitting, and a second paved area further down where the sun lands later in the day, connected by a path.
What matters for patios in West Wickham
Terrace plus a second seating area
Splitting the paving usually gives a better garden than one huge slab of stone. It also spreads the cost, because the path and second area can follow later if you would rather phase the work.
Falls across a large terrace
The bigger the area, the more obvious a bad fall becomes. We set levels with a laser across the whole terrace so water leaves consistently instead of pooling in the middle.
Edging and lawn transitions
Where paving meets lawn, a flush edging detail keeps the mower running over the joint and stops the turf creeping over the stone.

Patios in West Wickham — your questions
Can a patio be laid in phases?
Yes. We often build the main terrace first and add the path and second seating area later. It costs a little more overall because of the return visit and repeat deliveries, but it lets you spread the work — we will price both approaches so you can compare.
