Patio Inspiration – Get Autumn Ready!

By Erin Simpson
Landscape Architect
2 min read

Back to school season is upon us, with the summer months drawing to a close. At Tobermore, we hope that you have enjoyed your summer months outside, dining al fresco and making the most of the long sunny evenings.

The good news is that outdoor living doesn’t have to end when the summer is over. A well designed outdoor space can allow you to enjoy outdoor living all year round.

Award-winning columnist Vanessa Drew, explains why outdoor living is no longer a seasonal trend:

“The simple addition of features such as lighting, cosy seating such as an egg chair or a gazebo allow you to enjoy your outdoor space all year round, rather than just using the area in the spring and summer months.”

With the kids back at school and less time spent in the garden, now is the perfect time to overhaul your patio area. Make the most of your extra free time and you could have your garden autumn ready within a few weeks. Autumn is also a great time for patio transformations as this can be a quiet time for paving contractors.

As your outdoor space shapes the style, character and value of your property, give this careful thought. Tobermore offer a range of design services, such as Visualise It. This design service allows you to see a photo-realistic computer-generated image of your paving, right alongside your property. Using a photo of your home, we superimpose your new paving, including any finishing touches like planting – giving you a really clear picture of how your finished project could look. 

Why not get in touch with Tobermore today and see how we can get your outdoor space ready for year round enjoyment!

If you are in need of some inspiration to help you get started, have a look at our Inspiration Gallery. Or better still, give us a call or pop in to our Paving and Walling Centre in Tobermore, open Monday – Saturday all year round. You can also find your local Tobermore stockist on our website.

In addition, we offer FREE Home Consultations with our experienced Paving & Walling Managers. We’ll tour your outdoor space together, offer advice on bespoke garden and driveway design – and provide estimated costs so you can plan confidently. Our experts will also introduce you to local merchants and paving contractors experienced with Tobermore installations, measure your space, and agree next steps before we leave.
