Patios in Salford and the surrounding area
A patio is built on the same principles as a driveway, and skipping either the base or the falls shows within a year. We excavate, build the base to suit the ground, set the falls away from the building, then lay the slabs onto a full mortar bed. A Salford patio can be natural stone, concrete paving or porcelain, and the steps and edging are worked in so it finishes properly at the edges.
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
Letting a contractor take up the front of your property is worth a few questions first. We price off a visit, we build the base for the ground we actually find rather than to one depth, and the same team sees the job through. That is how we have worked for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Salford included.
We are based in Bolton and cover Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Salford and the M6 postcodes are close ground for us and we are there regularly. Pendleton, Weaste, Seedley, Irlams o’ th’ Height and Broughton are covered on the same basis.
Over 20 years’ experience
Over twenty years of driveways, patios and commercial surfacing across the North West, with a reputation for careful work and clean sites.
A written, itemised quote
The price comes in writing after the visit, itemised, so the figure you agree to is the figure you pay.
The base done properly
Failures start below the surface, so the sub-base is built for the ground we find and the weight it has to take.
The same people throughout
The same people from the quote to the finish, not a crew you meet on day one.
Domestic and commercial
One driveway or a full commercial car park, both planned and costed the same way.
The price
What affects the price
Every Salford quote follows a free site visit. Ground conditions vary street to street round here, and what is under the old surface is what sets the cost of the base.
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
