What we do
Large format slabs are the modern choice for patios and driveways, and they suit both new builds and older Irish homes. Porcelain slabs are incredibly hard-wearing, fade resistant and easy to clean, which makes them perfect for our weather. We can help you choose the right size, colour and finish, and then lay it with precision on a solid base with proper falls. Whether you want a minimalist grey patio in Sligo or a warm sandstone drive in Galway, we will design it around your space. Our own team does the design, the groundwork and the laying, so nothing gets lost between trades.

Frequently asked
- How much does a slab patio cost per square metre?
- Porcelain patios generally cost between €75 and €120 per square metre installed, while natural stone can be more depending on the material. We will give you an itemised quote after surveying the site.
- How long does a slab patio take to install?
- Most patios take 4 to 7 days, depending on the size and the amount of ground preparation needed. We will agree a timeline with you before we start.
- Which is better, porcelain or natural stone?
- Porcelain is lower maintenance, stain resistant and keeps its colour well, while natural stone has a unique, organic look. We will talk through the pros and cons and help you pick the right one for your budget and style.
- Will my slab patio stay clean in wet weather?
- Yes, porcelain in particular is very easy to keep clean and resists algae and moss far better than some other surfaces. We also lay with proper falls so water runs off instead of pooling.
- Can you match my new patio to my house or existing paving?
- Yes, we will bring samples to your home so you can see colours and textures against your house. We can also source materials to tie in with existing paving.
- Do I need planning permission for a slab patio?
- Most patios in back gardens do not require planning permission, but large areas or those close to boundaries can. We will advise you on what applies to your property.
