Porcelain typically costs £90-120 per square metre installed, compared to £85-110 for natural stone, making both excellent choices for Northamptonshire patios."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How long does a typical patio installation take?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Most residential patios take 3-5 days to complete, including excavation, base preparation, and laying. A standard 4x4 metre patio usually takes 3 days, whilst larger courtyards or complex designs with multiple levels can extend to 6 days. Weather conditions may add an extra day for concrete to cure properly."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Do you need to dig up my existing patio to install new paving?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"In most cases, yes - we remove the existing surface to ensure proper drainage and longevity. Old concrete slabs or worn paving must come out so we can install a fresh sub-base and sand bed. This prevents future settling, cracking, and drainage problems that plague overlay installations."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What's included in your £85 per square metre paving price?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Our paving prices include excavation, hardcore sub-base, sand bedding layer, the paving materials, and all installation labour. We also include joint filling and initial cleaning, though premium materials like high-end porcelain or intricate patterns may increase the rate. Each quote itemises exactly what's covered for your specific project."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Will my new patio have proper drainage to prevent water pooling?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes, we install every patio with a minimum 1:60 gradient to direct water away from your house and prevent pooling. We also lay a permeable hardcore base beneath the paving and can install land drains if your Northamptonshire garden has particularly heavy clay soil. Proper drainage prevents frost damage and extends your patio's lifespan significantly."}}]}]}
