Patios in Leyland and the surrounding area
Water that runs back towards the house rather than away from it is the fall being wrong, and it is the same fault that has slabs lifting and rocking, along with a bed laid too thin. We set the falls and the bed properly before anything goes down. We build your Leyland patio on the same principles as a driveway: excavate, build the base, set the falls away from the building, then lay the slabs in natural stone, concrete paving or porcelain, with steps and edging tied in.
A well-built patio gives you extra outdoor living space and somewhere to relax, whether that is a family barbecue or a quiet corner of the garden. We lay patios in Indian sandstone, porcelain and block paving, chosen with you to suit the house, and a good one adds real value as well as kerb appeal.
What’s included
- Excavation and a compacted base
- Falls set away from the building
- Slabs laid on a full mortar bed
- Pointing, edging and any steps
- Natural stone, concrete paving or porcelain

How we do it
- 01
Set out and dig
We set the patio out, excavate, and build the base with the falls running away from the house.
- 02
Lay on a full bed
We lay each slab on a full mortar bed rather than dabs, so nothing rocks or lifts later.
- 03
Point and finish
We point the joints, finish the edges, and tie the patio into steps as needed.

Why us
Why choose THB Contractors
We have worked across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire for over 20 years, and Leyland is a regular stop for our driveway and surfacing work. You are trusting someone to dig up the front of your property, or to take a car park out of use for a few days, so it is fair to want to know how we work first. We look properly before we price, we build the base around the ground we actually find, and the same team stays with the job from the first visit to the last sweep-up.
From our base in Bolton we cover Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, and Leyland is one of the Lancashire towns we are in regularly. That takes in the PR25 postcodes and the areas around them: Farington, Bamber Bridge, Buckshaw Village and Lostock Hall are all part of the same run for us.
Over 20 years’ experience
We have spent twenty years laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West, and we are known for quality workmanship and tidy, reliable jobs.
A written, itemised quote
We put the price in writing after the site visit, so you are not caught out by anything once the job is under way.
The base done properly
Most surfaces fail from underneath. We build the base to suit the ground we find rather than handing every job the same dig-out.
The same people throughout
You are not passed around. The same team handles your job from the quote through to the day it finishes.
Domestic and commercial
We give a single driveway the same care we give a full car park, both in how we price it and how we plan the work.
The price
What affects the price
We quote your Leyland job once we have been out to see it, and the visit costs you nothing. The price then matches the work in front of us instead of a guess off a description.
The main things that move the figure:
- The paving chosen (porcelain and natural stone differ from concrete)
- The area, and any steps or level changes
- Excavation and disposal
- Access to the rear of the property
