Porcelain Paving Installation in Margate
We provide professional porcelain paving installation for patios, pathways and outdoor areas throughout Margate. Porcelain delivers uniform colour consistency, low maintenance demands and exceptional long-term durability that conventional paving materials simply cannot provide.
Porcelain paving is ideal for various garden areas in Margate, including:
- Patios and seating areas – The non-porous surface effectively resists staining from food, beverages and furniture impressions
- Pathways and walkways – Maintains its original appearance indefinitely without fading or discolouration
- Pool and spa surrounds – R11-rated varieties offer superior slip resistance in wet conditions
Installing porcelain requires different preparation methods compared to natural stone. We install using either a concrete base with adhesive bonding or a pedestal system for elevated applications like roof terraces. The concrete base approach requires laying a 100mm reinforced slab, followed by securing tiles with flexible adhesive and applying specialist grouting compounds to guarantee proper porcelain bonding.
We consistently recommend resin grout for porcelain installations, as it offers flexibility, excellent weather resistance, and can be colour-matched to create contrast with the porcelain tiles.
For patio areas, we can utilize a sand/cement bed installation comparable to natural stone methods, although the adhesive technique delivers superior long-term stability. A standard patio installation typically requires 2 to 4 days to complete from beginning to end.
In addition to porcelain tiling, we provide alternative surfacing solutions for your patio, including paving, sandstone installations, and limestone.
