Patios in Stockport and the surrounding area
On a sloping garden a patio has to be set out properly or it drains the wrong way, usually back at the house. We excavate, build the base, and set the falls away from the building before a single slab is laid. A Stockport patio goes down on a full mortar bed, in natural stone, concrete paving or porcelain, and we tie it into steps and edging so the levels work with the garden rather than against it.
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
You are handing someone the front of your property for a few days, so how they work matters. We look at the job before we price it, we build the base to suit the ground rather than to a set depth, and the team that quotes is the team that lays. That has been the way for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Stockport with it.
We work out of Bolton, covering Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Stockport and the SK1 postcodes fall inside that comfortably, and we are there regularly. Heaton Chapel, Heaton Norris, Edgeley, Davenport and Reddish are covered on the same terms.
Over 20 years’ experience
More than twenty years of driveways, patios and commercial surfacing across the North West, with a reputation for solid work and a tidy site.
A written, itemised quote
After the visit the price arrives in writing and itemised, so the cost is settled before anyone lifts a spade.
The base done properly
The base is what fails first, so we size the dig-out and the sub-base for the ground in front of us and the weight going on it.
The same people throughout
The same people right through, from the day we price it to the day we sweep up.
Domestic and commercial
From one driveway to a full commercial car park, approached and costed the same way.
The price
What affects the price
Every Stockport quote comes after a free site visit. On a sloping plot the falls and the drainage change the work, and those are things to measure rather than estimate.
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
