We've designed and installed patios for homeowners throughout Rickleton and across Tyne and Wear. Every project starts with a free consultation where we discuss your vision, measure your space, and recommend materials that suit your budget and garden.
Rickleton sits in the NE37 postcode area under Sunderland City Council, with easy access from the A1(M) / A19 corridor — so we can be on site quickly from our base in Tyne and Wear, often combining visits with nearby work in Lambton, Fatfield.

Rickleton is a suburban pocket inside Washington, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Washington job. We plan around 1960s-90s family homes, wider drives and mature front gardens. That's why this page exists separately to ourWashington page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.

How we adapt for this area:

We set up a clear work zone in your garden and protect the lawn and planted areas throughout.
Tyne and Wear is a densely populated metropolitan county with a mix of Victorian terraces, post-war estates, and modern developments. Properties here range from traditional Tyneside flats to large detached homes in leafy suburbs, all requiring exterior work that respects the area's industrial heritage and urban character.
Washington is a planned new town built in the 1960s and 1970s, with distinct numbered villages each containing their own housing estates, shops, and green spaces. Properties are predominantly modern semi-detached and detached houses with good-sized gardens.
As well as patios & landscaping, we also offer these services to homeowners in Rickleton.
