Patios and Paving for homes in Norwich
Landscaping Norfolk provides patios and paving in Norwich and across the city and surrounding suburbs. With 25 years of experience in hard landscaping and groundworks, we build to last: proper preparation, the right materials for the site and a clean finish. Every job starts with a site visit and a clear written quote, and we are based in Norfolk so Norwich is well within our normal working area.
Norwich is the county city, with everything from Victorian terraces off Unthank Road to 1930s semis in Eaton and new-build estates on the outskirts. We cover the whole city and the suburbs around it, including Sprowston, Thorpe St Andrew, Hellesdon, Taverham and Costessey.
A patio is the part of your garden you will use the most, so it needs to look right and stay right. We lay Indian sandstone, porcelain, limestone, slate and block paving across Norfolk, always on a compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base with a full mortar bed under every slab. No spot bedding, no rocking slabs, no sunken corners two winters later.
Local knowledge
Patios & Paving and the ground around Norwich
Ground around Norwich varies from loam to clay within a few streets, so we check the actual conditions before setting depths. Every patio and driveway gets a full excavation, a compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base and falls set for drainage, with the depth adjusted to suit what we find.
Across Norwich we work on everything from Victorian terraces with narrow rear access to new-build gardens on the outskirts. We plan access and deliveries carefully and keep disruption to neighbours to a minimum.

Patios & Paving in Norwich: common questions
Do you cover Norwich for patios and paving?
Yes. Norwich (NR1 to NR7) is within our regular working area and we carry out patios and paving there and in the surrounding villages. We visit to measure up and quote, and travel is included in the price.
How do I get a quote for patios and paving in Norwich?
Call or WhatsApp 07920 843493, email info@landscapingnorfolk.uk, or use the contact form. We will arrange a visit at a time that suits you, talk through what you want and send a written quote with no obligation.
How long does a patio take to lay?
A typical 20 to 40 square metre patio takes three to five days depending on access, the amount of excavation and whether steps or walls are involved. Larger or more complex jobs take longer and we will give you a realistic timescale in the quote.
What is the best paving for a Norfolk garden?
Indian sandstone remains the most popular for its natural look and value. Porcelain is very low maintenance and does not fade or stain. Block paving suits driveways and paths. We will show you samples and talk through the pros and cons of each.
Do you lay patios on a full mortar bed?
Yes, always. Every slab is laid on a full bed of mortar over a compacted sub-base. Spot bedding leaves voids that let slabs rock and crack, so we never do it.
