patio - Patio with inset manhole covers
Our customer wanted a patio to surround their conservatory but were concerned that two existing manhole covers would spoil the appearance of the paving. We laid paving slabs with a block paver edge and used inset covers to make the manhole covers blend in with the patio. They also wanted to retain a small tree but didn't want this to limit the patio size so we incorporated this within the patio by bordering it with block pavers. A path was also added the full length of the garden for easy access to other areas.
