Frequently Asked Questions About Garden Paving And Patios

How do I know which materials to use for my patio?

Popular materials include concrete, pavers, natural stone and brick. The best material depends on your budget, aesthetic preferences and maintenance requirements. Our landscaping team can recommend the most suitable products for your project.

Acacia Gardens can indeed assist in designing your garden patio. With a team of experienced designers and landscapers, Acacia Gardens will work closely with you to understand your vision, select suitable materials and craft a layout that optimises your available space.

Will I need planning permission?

If you are using paving that is permeable (or porous), you will not require planning permission. Planning permission is unnecessary if you choose gravel, permeable concrete block paving, or porous asphalt for your driveway. If the excess rainwater is directed to a lawn or border to drain naturally, then planning permission is also not required. However, permissions may change, so checking your local council’s website is best.

Will weeds grow through my block paving?

When we excavate and prepare your paving area, we use weed control as a thick Geo-textile membrane beneath the paving on a sand screed and under all gravel or bark areas. This will prevent any growth from below; it is almost impossible to stop weeds from growing at a surface level altogether. We advise all customers that a weed killer is used periodically and to choose an environmentally friendly one.

Is block paving difficult to clean?

Your paving will require very little maintenance. However, some paving finishes are easier to keep clean than others. Paving slabs or blocks with a riven surface will allow dirt to gather more quickly, whereas smooth paving tiles are less prone to surface dirt. Porous materials like Sandstone will allow dirt to penetrate deeper into the stone naturally. This can add a desirable aged effect to your paving stones if your paving is being installed on a heritage property. Cleaning solutions are available to clean oil or tyre marks using a pressure washer.
