Wide Open is a suburban pocket inside Newcastle upon Tyne, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Newcastle upon Tyne job. We plan around back-garden patios with level changes and lawn-to-paving transitions. That's why this page exists separately to ourNewcastle upon Tyne page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
Tyne and Wear's distinctive blend of riverside developments, Victorian suburbs, and modern housing estates gives every project its own character. We draw on years of local experience to deliver exterior improvements that sit naturally alongside the county's diverse architecture.
As the regional capital, Newcastle has an incredibly diverse housing stock from Grade II listed Georgian townhouses on Grey Street to modern riverside apartments at the Quayside. Jesmond and Gosforth offer leafy Victorian suburbs, while the west end features more affordable terraced housing.
Every area has its own requirements. Here's what we consider when working in Wide Open.
How we adapt for this area:
Children's play equipment and garden furniture are carefully moved and protected during the project.
We mark out the full patio layout with string lines and pegs so you can visualise it before we start.
We set up a clear work zone in your garden and protect the lawn and planted areas throughout.
Our team knows this city inside out — from the busiest streets to the quietest suburbs.
Every project is backed by comprehensive public liability insurance for your peace of mind.
All our work comes with a written workmanship guarantee, giving you confidence for years to come.
We leave your property spotless at the end of every day and remove all waste on completion.
Our skilled tradespeople bring years of hands-on experience to every project.
We design driveways and gardens that enhance your property's value and fit the local streetscape.
Solid-built semi-detached homes with good-sized plots, perfect for adding a new driveway or patio.
Newer builds with open-plan gardens that suit contemporary patio designs and low-maintenance landscaping.
Houses that have been extended often need the driveway or roof adjusted to match the new footprint.
Properties on corner plots have more frontage and garden space, offering greater scope for creative exterior design.
We keep stock of popular materials at our yard so projects in major towns can start quickly without long lead times.
We visit your garden to discuss your vision, measure the area, and suggest suitable materials and layouts.
We present options for stone, porcelain, and accessories, with a detailed quote and timeline.
Existing surfaces are cleared, the area is excavated, and a solid base with drainage is installed.
Your patio is laid to the agreed design with precision cutting, proper falls, and quality jointing.
We inspect every detail, complete any finishing touches, and walk you through maintaining your new patio.
