Mark and his team removed a tired 20 year old patio and repaired and replaced it with new slabs and brickwork. Very pleased with outcome and the short turnaround providing us with a new patio to enjoy for the new season. Many Thanks

We have wanted to extend and replace our patio for several years now and after some research contacted Mark at MT Paving and Landscaping. Mark came round to discuss the patio project and what the works would entail. From our first meeting I knew this was the company that I wanted to use due to Marks professional approach and advice on the slabs and size of patio that would work best with our late 1930’s home and garden.
Mark and his team started the project a week ago and finished today. We have no side access so Mark and his team had to bring all materials through the house (and remove old materials) which was a hell of a task. They did this without causing any damage and swept up every evening. I take my hat off to them.
We now have a stunning patio and double the size so that we can actually now use it as a family and can now entertain friends without falling into the old flower beds.
The patio looks fantastic and enhances our garden. The workmanship is first class with every Indian Sandstone slab cut and laid perfectly. Not only will this enhance our lives as a family but it will also definitely add value to our home.
Thank you so much Mark we are delighted and we couldn’t recommend MT Paving and Landscaping highly enough. 💯🤩

We had a issue with rats digging under our block paved drive. Mark was quick to respond to my enquiry, a relief as it's only a small job and I feared he would not be interested. He was able to find a couple of half days to fit us in and, thankfully, once the damaged area was dug up, the problem was soon determined and repaired. It was a fixed-price quote so lucky for both of us that it wasn't as bad as it could have been and everything was finished to a very good standard.

I hired Mark and team recently to redo some block paving and fence work and they have done a great job. They worked straight through the rain to get as much done as possible, then came back promptly to finish the parts that couldn’t be done in the bad weather. They also sorted out a few issues that popped up afterwards without any fuss. Really solid work and great service — would definitely recommend them

Mark and the team did a wonderful job removing our tired old decking and laying a beautiful Indian sandstone patio. They overcame several complex challenges during the week, making recommendations at various points to ensure it aligned with our vision for the space. Professional and friendly. We'll be getting them to return later in the year to level up our lawn.

We had a great experience with Mark, Tommy-Lee and the team from MT who turned our unfinished wasteland into a fantastic sandstone patio that connects right down the side of our house.
Mark's expertise helped us determine how best to work with the extension left unfinished by previous owners - identifying challenges and providing solutions we were happy with. Mark was respectful of our budgets and helped plan realistically too.
Once on site, the team were pleasant and courteous to be around; especially kind and friendly to my curious 4 year old when she wanted to say "hello". It's messy work but within reasonable expectations things were done tidily and with no damage or incidents to our property and minimum inconvenience with deliveries etc.
The final product is a high quality finish, delivered in the predicted time frame and sticking to budget. It is just what we were hoping for. I would happily recommend Mark and the team.

I recently worked with Mark from MT Paving & Landscaping on a project at the end of my garden, and I’m really pleased with the results.
The transformation looks better than I expected, and Mark and his team were friendly throughout the process. I’ll be reaching out to Mark for future projects and would highly recommend him for anyone looking to improve their garden.

We had a patio laid by Mark and his team a couple of weeks ago in August. The quality of the work is excellent and it's turned our garden into a much nicer space that we can actually use. Mark worked with us to decide on the best option to make the layout work, especially after discovering an older patio beneath our old decking. All in all we're very happy with the job and now we're hoping the weather holds out a bit longer so we can make use of it. Only problem is now we need to get the rest of the garden up to standard....

Mark and his team did a fantastic job removing our old decking and laying an Indian sandstone patio. Mark was very thorough when it came to the quote and made sure we understood all our options. His communication was great and we felt in safe hands. The job was done to a very high standard within good time and the site was left tidy and clear. We were very impressed and will be returning next time we have a landscaping task!

I had my back garden repaved with Indian sandstone. Mark and team gave a competitive quote, started the job on the day agreed, and delivered to a high standard. I appreciate Mark also working with me to adapt the plans half way through. Would recommend.

Mark and his team were fantastic from start to finish. It is fair to say that my garden was A JOB. It was in a huge state, with loads of gravel everywhere, uneven lawn, overgrown beds and a huge mass of bamboo and trees. Mark listened to what I wanted and immediately got it, but gave advice on what he recommended to keep costs down.
Once he started the work, the whole team worked hard and were all absolutely lovely. They basically gutted the place and started from scratch…bamboo gone, brand new lawn, two new patios, new sleeper beds… The outcome was amazing and I am so happy with my new garden, it looks incredible.
I highly recommend Mark and his team, you can’t go wrong. Thank you!

Mark was great to deal with and his team did a top job extending my patio and installing some railway sleepers as borders. They work hard and were very good at what they do, and followed my brief entirely. I'm delighted with the results!

Mark and the guys very efficiently made me a new wall. Easy to deal with, very quick turn around time, lovely wall and all tidied away afterwards. No extra charges on top of the original quote either.

I contacted Mark as I like to use local traders if I can. He exudes professionalism and after he'd inspected the job and given me a quote we did the deal on a handshake. Mark and his crew worked hard to clear an old bed and match in new paving on my drive. They weren't happy with the result on day one, but rather than rush it and get away, they came back the next day to finish it properly. Very happy with the results

I recently employed Mark and his team to redesign a driveway on a property. The driveway needed to be split into two to allow for access to a new development soon to be built on the land behind. This works included replacing a small lawn with block paving, erecting a new fence as well as installing a trellis around the existing fence for some extra privacy for the homeowner ahead of the building works starting.
I was most impressed with the work that Mark and his team carried out as was the homeowner most importantly. They completed the job in the time promised, left the site clean and tidy and the job was reasonably priced. I would highly recommend MT Paving and Landscaping and will certainly be looking to use them again myself in the future.

FAQ's
What is the best material for a patio in St Albans?
The best patio material depends on the style you want, how you use the space and your budget. Indian sandstone is a very popular choice for its natural appearance, while porcelain offers a sleek, modern finish with low maintenance. We can talk you through the options and help you choose a patio material that works perfectly for your garden and property.
How long does a new patio last?
When installed correctly on a properly prepared base, a quality patio can last for many years. The key is in the groundwork, drainage and the quality of the materials used. At MT Paving & Landscaping, we follow proven methods and complete every patio to a high standard so that it not only looks great but performs well over the long term.
Can you design a patio to suit my garden?
Yes, every patio we install is tailored to the individual property and client. We can advise on layout, size, shapes, materials, edging and any additional features such as steps or connecting paths. Whether you want a simple seating area or a larger entertainment space, we can help design a patio that fits your garden beautifully.
Do you offer professional patio laying in St Albans?
Yes, we provide professional patio laying in St Albans for all types of gardens and outdoor spaces. Whether you want a new sandstone patio, porcelain paving, traditional slabs or a completely bespoke design, we can help. We handle everything from planning and preparation through to installation and finishing, ensuring your new patio is attractive, durable and built to a high standard.
How much does a patio cost in St Albans?
The cost of a patio depends on the size of the area, the material you choose, the design and the condition of the existing ground. Every project is different, so we provide free, no-obligation site visits and quotations to assess your garden properly and give you a clear price based on your exact requirements.
Do you offer a guarantee on patio installations?
Yes, all of our patio installations come with a 5-year workmanship guarantee for added peace of mind. We are also fully insured, so you can feel confident that your project is being handled professionally from start to finish. Our guarantee reflects the care and confidence we put into every patio we install.
Can you replace an old patio with a completely new design?
Yes, we regularly remove tired, damaged or outdated patios and replace them with completely new designs. This can include changing the layout, extending the size, adding steps or paths, and choosing a totally different paving material. It is a great way to refresh your garden and create an outdoor space that suits how you want to use it now.
Are patios easy to maintain?
Most patios are relatively easy to maintain, especially when they are installed correctly and cleaned occasionally. Regular sweeping and the occasional wash will help keep the surface looking its best. Different materials have slightly different maintenance requirements, and we’ll always explain the practicalities of each option before you decide which patio finish is right for you.
Can a patio include steps, paths or other features?
Yes, we can incorporate a range of additional features into your patio design, including steps, pathways, edging details and different sections for seating or access. These details can make a big difference to how practical and attractive the finished garden looks, and we can help plan them as part of the overall project.
