Patio Builders Newtownabbey

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 Newtownabbey covet. Homebuyers are willing to pay a high premium for a house in Newtownabbey with a great patio.

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.

Shape: Shapes of patios are: Free-Form, Circular or Square. Free-form patios are asymmetrical, less predictable, and great for more informal gardens. 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 Newtownabbey. If you like to entertain a lot of people, a large square or rectangular patio is a great way to go.

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 Newtownabbey. 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 Newtownabbey who can help you.

Once you have the purpose, size and shape 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. If you've got a retaining wall, consider using hanging flowers such as angel's trumpet, or climbing vines such as clematis, honeysuckle, passion flower or sweet pea. Planter baskets with pansies, geraniums and petunias. 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. Consider strawberry planters, grape or cherry tomato plants or herbs as they are great decorative feature and edible solution as well. Choosing new plants, bushes or flowers can add a facelift and a new look to your patio area in Newtownabbey.

Decking vs Patio

Virtually any garden or even a small courtyard in Newtownabbey can be improved by installing some decking or a patio. But, which option best fits your needs?

If it's down to initial outlay, then decking wins hands down. Decking is cheaper and often easier to lay than a similarly sized slabbed patio. Some folks claim that decking is expensive and challenging to maintain, however with today's composite materials this isn't really an issue any longer. There'll be routine annual maintenance on both patios and decks; painting or staining, the sealing of surfaces etc, which is required to keep them in the best possible condition.

Slabbed patios are the preferred choice for people wanting a more durable surface which can stand up to heavy use regardless of the weather in Newtownabbey. These hard surfaces will last a lifetime, and even if a stone breaks or cracks, it won't impact on the overall structure of the patio and can be very easily exchanged. On the other hand, a broken deck plank or board, needs to be replaced straight away, because it will create an unsafe trip area on even a low-level deck. When push comes to shove, either solution will offer you many years of outdoor pleasure for the whole family.
