Garden surfaces for patios, paths and decking areas

A garden surface connects the house, planting and outdoor furniture while shaping how the space is used. Our collection brings together porcelain paving, natural granite and Millboard decking. Compare the appearance and practical requirements of each material before deciding on the layout of your patio, path or terrace.

Compare materials as well as colours

Porcelain offers manufactured stone and wood-effect designs; natural granite has its own variation in tone and markings. Decking brings a board format and a different construction method. Think about the transitions between surfaces, any steps and the way the material will meet doors, lawns and planted borders.

Plan the finished surface and the work beneath it

A suitable support or base, drainage, edges and installation method are as important as the visible finish. Check dimensions and coverage carefully: products may be priced per board, slab, pack or sample. Allow for cutting and wastage and agree the installation specification with your installer. Browse garden furniture to check the usable space, and choose aftercare matched to the material you select.
