Choosing the right material for path and patios is very important as
they tend to get covered with plants. Your choice will be governed by
size of garden. price, ease of laying and the importance of permanence.
1) Brick: Brick is one of the best choices. The bricks weather to
give an attractive finish. Bricks can be mystifying in their verity,
but make sure you choose frost resistant material.
2) Concrete
pavers similar in scale to bricks, these come in interlocking angular
shapes as well as the usual rectangles. The color range is less wide
and individual shades and colors are more uniform. Concrete pavers are
ideal for a new house.
3) Stone Slabs: Stone slabs are mellow and
elegant but are also expensive and may come in large sizes that can be
heavy and difficult to handle but they are perfect for larger area and
alongside stone house walls.
4) Reconstituted stone slabs: These
are very effective, as many of them contain a large proportion of
ground stone. They sometime resemble Riven stone and they come in more
manageable sizes and at a more reasonable price. They are also very
popular.
5) Concrete: State forward concrete laid on site is
inelegant as a final surface and should be avoided, but such pads are
often necessary under buildings or under drives that will be taking
heavy loads.
6) Gravel: A very useful and inexpensive surfacing,
gravel is more suitable for informal areas than patios but it is ideal
where paths can merge into beds, which can also graveled to keep down
weeds. It also makes fine, relatively inexpensive, short term surfacing.
7) Bark
Chips: You can use bark chips in a similar way to gravel, they are
especially good as paths in shade and are ideal as a surface for
children’s playgrounds.
Thanks
