How much does a indian sandstone patio cost in Clacton-on-Sea?

Typical prices

Ballpark UK prices for labour and materials. Local quotes vary with access, ground conditions and the materials you pick.

What changes the price

• Size and shape. Bigger areas cost less per square metre; awkward shapes and curves cost more.
• What's there now. Digging out and removing an old surface typically adds £10–£25 per m².
• Drainage. In England, paving more than 5m² of a front garden needs planning permission unless the surface is permeable or drains onto a lawn or border. A good installer builds that in.
• Edging and kerbs. Adds a few hundred pounds but stops the edges spreading.
• Access. If materials can't be dropped close by, labour goes up.
• Time of year. Spring and summer book up fast in Essex. Getting quotes early gives you more choice.
