Paving Slab help

Hi All,

Wondering if you could help me. I'm really excited- having looked at a building site of a garden for the last year we are now finally getting around to landscaping our back garden.

The picture we are working towards is below from Pinterest. Does anyone know of anywhere that I might be able to find similar paving slabs for c.£30 per m2 (or below). Ideally natural stone and will need to be anti slip if possible as we have a LO.

Thanks

L

    Sorry, I can't offer any specific advice, but my first port of call would be Jewsons, Travis Perkins or a local builder's merchant.


    You could also have a browse through the Marshalls website : https://www.marshalls.co.uk/homeowners


    Click on the "Find A Stockist" on the menu and you'll be able to find a local stockist - I know that TP and Jewsons usually stock ( or can order ) Marshalls stuff.


    Hope this helps.
  • I'd be interested to know if you manage to find those precise ones in the photo - as I rather like them myself.

    I don't know if it helps but it looks like the image comes from this website, which is for a garden design service in London. You could always be cheeky and give them a ring :)

    We spent ages earlier this year trying to find slabs we liked for the garden (initially found some porcelain ones we loved until we worked out the cost of the materials plus cost to install)

    We ended up getting some sawn sandstone from a site called Infinite Paving who were very good - well priced and quick delivery.

    Good advise to visit some local builders merchants as a start and pick up some brochures.

    Not sure of the area you need but many places won't sell part crates so do check Gumtree or eBay too for people selling left overs from jobs if you only need a smallish area.
