After living in the country this winter, it's clear I shall need to have a large patio built if I want to venture outside at all next winter!
I'd like a large area about 15ft x 35ft done, and I'd like it to blend in as much as possible with the very rural setting.
The problem is the soil here is the heaviest clay I've ever come across so I would appreciate any suggestions/tips for the best surface to use, what depth you would take the sub base to, and whether you know of any environmentally friendly surfaces that I might consider.
This won't be a DIY job, apart from some digging out that we could do to help reduce costs, but I'd just like to be well prepared for when I get quotes.
TIA
