It doesn’t matter what size your property is; our team at Mail Construction has your garden paving requirements covered.
For modest properties, we suggest smaller-sized paving slabs or block paving. Either creates the illusion of more space and can be laid in intricate patterns, such as herringbone or basketweave. Weathered bricks or natural stone will also enhance rustic charm for homeowners in more rural localities, with the earthy shades seamlessly blending with their surroundings. This will help make your garden appear larger and more uniform.
Medium gardens offer more design flexibility. A mix of stone and modern concrete pavers can create a harmonious contrast which won’t look out of place in the majority of standard-sized gardens. Flowing garden pathways can connect different areas, and mixing materials helps to add depth and visual interest to spaces in Harpenden and St Albans.
Bigger properties offer ample space to experiment with garden paving. Try using oversized paving slabs to create a grand entrance or an expansive terrace. To soften the look, we suggest incorporating greenery with pockets of gravel or planting beds for a comfortable yet eye-catching effect. Our natural stone slabs are perfect for such projects, offering both durability and elegance.
In addition to garden pathways and garden patios, our projects can include design elements like fire pits or bespoke seating areas, regardless of a property’s size. They help transform the outdoor space into a multi-functional area for social gatherings or quiet relaxation.
Whether your Harpenden or St Albans property is small, medium or large, the key to a successful exterior is careful planning. We always consider the layout, drainage, and maintenance requirements. By selecting the right paving materials and incorporating them thoughtfully into your landscape, our skilled team can enhance the beauty and functionality of your property.
