Porcelain Paving There are many benefits to using porcelain paving over the other available paving types here are a list of reasons to choose Porcelain for your garden.1.Low maintenance- Materials like stone and decking require regular upkeep such as sealing and require specialist cleaning products. Porcelain is relatively low maintenance needing only the occasional clean with a mop or a pressure washer this is why they are our top recommendation for a low maintenance option.2.Consistent sizing- Because of porcelain's engineered nature it means that each of the tiles are uniform throughout the batch this means you can get a cleaner more modern look when laying your tiles due to the sharp edges and consistent sizing.3.Slip resistant- If required a textured surface can be added to ensure an anti-slip finish Porcelain is also non-porous making it resistant to moss and mould growth factors that can make other surfaces more slippery.4.Frost proof- Due to the manufacturing process porcelain tiles absorb very little water meaning that they are resistant to frost minimizing the risk of cracked tiles and reducing the possibility of slipping in icy conditions, this make them perfect for patios as it ensures that your garden is usable all year round.
Landscaping
Sustainability One of the most important things we consider when creating a garden is the sustainability of the materials and processes that we use to create your perfect outdoors. When crafting a water feature we always make sure we source our stone from British eco-conscious quarries meaning that the stone is removed with the natural ecosystem in mind as well as ensuring that the material doesn’t have to travel as far to be in your garden. Another important thing to consider when sourcing materials is its effect on the ecosystem in your own back garden. If you have fish and other wildlife then it's important to find stone that is non toxic and won't negatively affect the ecosystem of your pond and garden.There are a few ways that you can create a sustainable garden, here are some tips to get you started.1.Collect rainwater- One of the best ways you can help the environment is to have a rain collection system in your garden. This way you can save water and keep your plants healthy by reusing rainwater and removing the need to use a hosepipe or tap.2.Plant more trees- If you have the space, planting trees can have an extremely positive impact on the environment as well as your local wildlife. By planting more trees you can not only create a home and food source for local wildlife but help add more oxygen and remove Co2 from the environment. If every gardener planted just one tree then there would be a positive impact on the environment.3.Go Peat free- Peatlands are one of the largest storer of carbon in the world. This is why it’s vital to keep peat in the ground where it can positively impact the environment and ensure that valuable ecosystems for plants and animals are kept protected and untouched.4.Make your own compost- A great way to reduce the household waste and help your garden is to create your own compost. According to the RHS “Every 1kg of home-made compost saves 0.1kg fossil carbon, which could save more than 15 - 19kg carbon, per gardener, per year.”5.Grow your own- Growing your own fruit and veg is not only extremely rewarding (and tasty) but is fantastic for the environment, much of the food we buy has a large carbon footprint due to it being transported from other countries. If you can grow your own then not only do you help the environment and local wildlife but get the excitement of eating and growing your own food.
