What porcelain patios in Edith Weston usually involve
We lay porcelain, Indian sandstone and natural stone patios on a full mortar bed, with a bonding primer on porcelain, falls away from the house and levels kept 150mm below the damp proof course.
Edith Weston sits on the south shore of Rutland Water, a stone village with a green and a number of substantial houses, next to St George's Barracks. Terraces, outdoor rooms and lighting designed around the views are the typical projects here.
We cover Edith Weston (LE15) and the villages around it, including North Luffenham, South Luffenham, Lyndon, Manton and Normanton.
Ground, drainage and conservation in Edith Weston
Edith Weston is on the limestone plateau above the reservoir, and most plots drain reasonably well, though clay pockets turn up. We test the ground before designing the base.
Edith Weston has a conservation area and no Article 4 direction, so normal permitted development rules apply outside listed buildings, with natural materials the right choice in the conservation area.
Rutland Water itself carries negligible flood risk according to Rutland's flood strategy, and Edith Weston is not one of the places it names for river flooding. You can check any address on the Environment Agency flood map.
