CG Paving Company completely transformed this tired rear garden in Upholland into a modern, low-maintenance outdoor space designed for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying throughout the year.
The project included premium porcelain paving, a new split-level layout, raised planting beds, artificial grass and new feather edge fencing. Carefully integrated lighting around the raised beds adds another striking feature, particularly in the evening.
The result is a clean, contemporary garden that makes far better use of the available space while remaining practical and easy to maintain.
Project Overview
Before work began, the garden consisted mainly of an existing lawn with an older paved area running alongside the property.
The original patio had become tired and uneven in places, while the overall layout did little to make the most of the available garden space.
CG Paving Company redesigned the area to create a much more practical and attractive outdoor environment, introducing different levels, defined seating areas and modern landscaping features throughout.
One of the main features of the project is the new split-level layout.
Rather than keeping the garden on one continuous level, raised sections and steps were introduced to give the space more structure and visual interest.
The change in levels helps define the patio and lawn areas while creating a much more considered garden design that works naturally with the property and surrounding boundaries.
A large porcelain patio was installed immediately outside the house, creating a spacious area for outdoor furniture, dining and entertaining.
The light porcelain paving gives the garden a clean, contemporary appearance and helps brighten the space, while the large-format slabs create a smooth and consistent finish.
The new patio extends across the rear of the property and connects neatly with the steps and raised garden features.
Raised planting areas were incorporated into the new design to help separate the porcelain patio from the artificial lawn.
The beds were finished with contemporary split-face style walling and contrasting dark coping, creating a strong feature within the garden.
Decorative white stone and shaped planting add further contrast and help create a smart, low-maintenance finish.
Integrated lighting beneath the coping highlights the walling and provides a warm glow across the porcelain paving during the evening.
The existing natural lawn was replaced with artificial grass, creating a neat green area that can be enjoyed throughout the year with considerably less maintenance.
The artificial lawn works particularly well alongside the porcelain paving and raised walling, providing a softer contrast to the hard landscaping while maintaining the clean appearance of the finished garden.
It also allows the homeowners to retain a generous lawn area without the regular mowing and maintenance associated with natural grass.
New feather edge fencing was installed around the garden to provide a smart and consistent boundary.
Replacing the older fencing helps complete the transformation and provides a cleaner backdrop for the new landscaping, raised beds and artificial grass.
The natural timber finish also introduces some warmth alongside the grey walling and light porcelain paving.
The completed garden now provides clearly defined areas for seating, entertaining and relaxing.
A generous porcelain patio offers plenty of space for outdoor furniture, while the illuminated raised beds create an attractive feature in the evening.
Combined with the artificial grass, new fencing and split-level design, the garden has been transformed into a much more usable outdoor space with a modern, low-maintenance finish.
The difference between the original garden and the completed project is substantial.
What was previously a simple lawn and ageing paved area has become a carefully designed garden incorporating porcelain paving, artificial grass, raised beds, feature walling, new fencing and integrated lighting.
The finished result is stylish, practical and designed to be enjoyed throughout the year.
