Landscaper in Orpington: local knowledge

Orpington's 1950s and 1960s suburban estates were built with decent-sized gardens front and rear, and many of these properties are now reaching the point where original landscaping features need wholesale replacement. The privet hedges, concrete slab patios, and timber fencing installed when the estates were built are tired and dated, and homeowners are increasingly investing in modern paving, composite fencing, and updated planting schemes to bring these gardens into the current decade.

Pro tip for Orpington homeowners

Many Orpington gardens still have the original 1960s concrete slab patios, which were laid on minimal sub-base directly onto the clay. If your patio has sunk, cracked, or become uneven, simply re-laying on the existing base will not fix the problem. The old base needs to come out completely and be replaced with a properly compacted Type 1 sub-base at the correct depth. It is more work, but it means the new paving will stay level for decades.

Our 1960s Orpington patio is cracked and sunken. Is it worth repairing or should we replace it?

In almost every case, replacement is the better option. The original 1960s patios in Orpington were typically laid on minimal preparation, often just sand over clay, which is why they have sunk and cracked over the decades. Repairing by re-levelling individual slabs is a temporary fix that does not address the underlying sub-base failure. We remove the old patio completely, excavate to the correct depth, lay a compacted Type 1 sub-base, and install new paving that will remain level and stable. The cost difference between a proper repair and full replacement is usually modest, and the result lasts far longer.
