Terracing and Slate Patio

The client wanted to replace hazardous rotten decking with a new, contemporary looking garden. This needed to include a patio area,  space for to grow vegetables and a base for a green house.

Under the old decking the ground was steeply sloped and terracing with drainage was required. New steps were built to replace the old wooden ones. A hard standing area for a new green house was created and an integrated vegetable bed to one side of the patio provides an outdoor growing area. Steps down from the house onto a black Brazilian slate patio create a contemporary feel to the project. The new terraced walls were covered with black slate cladding.
