Patios in Oldham and the surrounding area
Water that stays on a patio gets into the joints and a frost does the rest, which is why the falls are not optional. We excavate, build the base, and set the falls away from the building before laying anything. An Oldham patio goes onto a full mortar bed in natural stone, concrete paving or porcelain, and we bring the steps and edging in with it so there is nothing left to come loose.
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
Before you let anyone dig up your frontage it helps to know how they operate. We quote from a proper look at the job, we build the base for the ground that is actually under there, and the people who price it are the people who lay it. That is how it has worked for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Oldham with it.
Our base is Bolton and we cover Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Oldham and the OL1 postcodes are regular ground, not an occasional trip. Chadderton, Royton, Shaw, Lees and Failsworth are covered on the same basis as the town.
Over 20 years’ experience
Over twenty years laying driveways, patios and commercial surfacing across the North West, with a reputation for work that lasts and sites left clean.
A written, itemised quote
You get the price in writing after we have seen it, itemised, so nothing about the cost changes once the job starts.
The base done properly
Nearly every failure begins below the surface, so the dig-out and sub-base are built for the ground we meet and the traffic it carries.
The same people throughout
The same team from the quote to the finish. No handing over to a crew you have never met.
Domestic and commercial
Driveways and commercial surfacing alike, both costed and planned the same careful way.
The price
What affects the price
Every Oldham quote follows a free site visit. Drainage and the state of what is underneath both move the price, and both need looking at rather than assuming.
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
