Paths & Steps in Market Drayton
Done properly in Market Drayton, and cleared up after
A path is the part of a garden you use every day, in the dark and in the rain, so the details are worth getting right. We lay paths on a compacted base with a slight fall across the width, which keeps surface water moving instead of standing on it. Steps are set out so every riser in a flight is the same height, because a single odd step is exactly what trips people.
We take on paths & steps for homes across Market Drayton and the surrounding Shropshire villages, including Soudley, Hopton, Norton in Hales. Tell us what you are looking at and we will come out and price it properly.

The process
How your Market Drayton job runs
- 1
Set out where it should go
We work out where the sun lands in the afternoon, how the patio meets the back door, and what has to be dug out or built up to reach a level surface.
- 2
Dig out and prepare
The area is excavated, a compacted base is laid, and the finished height is set clear of the damp proof course so water can never track back into the wall.
- 3
Lay to a fall
Paving is bedded on full mortar, not on dabs, with a fall running away from the house. Slabs on dabs are the reason patios rock and joints crack.
- 4
Finish and walk it with you
Joints are filled, the edges finished against the lawn or border, and once the surface is washed down we walk the patio with you and go through how to keep the paving and jointing looking good.
The price
Paths & Steps costs in Market Drayton
No two jobs price the same, and anyone quoting over the phone without seeing it is guessing. These are the things that actually move the number, and the visit to work them out is free.
- The length and width of the path, and how many steps are in it
- How much level change the steps have to absorb
- Material choice, which on a narrow path is a smaller share of the cost than the groundwork
- Access, since a back garden path often means everything in and out by wheelbarrow
Why choose us
Why Market Drayton calls us for this
- 1
Private homes only
We only work on private homes and gardens, so a domestic job is the job, not a gap between contracts.
- 2
The groundwork gets its time
The groundwork gets the time it needs. That is unglamorous, and it is the whole difference between a surface that lasts and one that moves.
- 3
Waste leaves with us
Waste leaves with us, so you are not left disposing of spoil, old slabs or brash.
- 4
One point of contact
You deal with the person doing the work, so nothing gets lost between a salesman and a fitter.
