CCJ Groundworks

Patiosin Edinburgh & the Lothians

Natural stone, porcelain and block paving patios designed and built to transform your garden into a usable outdoor living space.

About Our Patios Service

A well-designed patio turns your garden into a functional outdoor room. CCJ Groundworks lays patios in natural stone (sandstone, limestone, slate, granite), large-format porcelain tiles and concrete block paving. We handle every stage — from marking out levels and excavating to laying a solid concrete or compacted sub-base, bedding slabs in full-contact mortar and pointing with flexible jointing compound. Our team takes care with alignment, falls for drainage, and finishing details so that your new patio looks and performs perfectly for decades to come.

Key Benefits

  • Wide choice of materials including natural stone and porcelain
  • Correctly calculated falls to keep water away from the house
  • Solid full-bed mortar to prevent slabs rocking or shifting
  • Flexible exterior pointing that resists frost cracking
  • Built-in steps, raised planters and borders available
  • Transforms unused garden space into an outdoor living area
