Hi, I am in the process of thinking about putting in a 30m2 patio at the rear of my house. I would like it as low maintenance as possible. e.g power wash it every year, and sweep once a week.
I have been reading that you can lay the patio on sharp sand or first pour a concrete slab. Is one method better than the other in terms of maintenance?
I am thinking of using 2cm outdoor porcelain tiles.
The garden has clay soils so I am slightly concerned that the concreate slab would need to have adequate drainage.
Any advice or thoughts would be appreciated.
