Marmo Anthracite Porcelain

For this project, Shire Driveways transformed an outdoor space into a stylish and functional patio area, using Marmo Anthracite Porcelain slabs with a light plank border for a sleek contrast.

The client wanted a modern, low-maintenance patio that would complement their outdoor space and provide a durable area for relaxation and entertaining.

The combination of the deep anthracite tones with the light plank edging created a sophisticated and contemporary look, enhancing the overall appearance of the garden.

Challenges & Requirements

  • The client wanted a modern and elegant patio that would enhance their outdoor space.
  • A durable and weather-resistant surface was essential for year-round use.
  • The light plank border was included to add definition and contrast to the dark anthracite slabs.

The Installation Process

  • Ground Preparation: We began by excavating the area and leveling the ground, ensuring a solid sub-base for long-term stability.
  • Laying the Marmo Anthracite Porcelain:
    • The Marmo Anthracite slabs were carefully positioned to create a seamless, high-end finish.
    • Precision spacing and grout application ensured a flawless look.
  • Adding the Light Plank Border:
    • The light plank edging was installed around the patio’s perimeter, creating a striking contrast against the dark anthracite porcelain.
    • This added a structured, stylish frame to the patio area.
  • Final Touches & Sealing: The patio was cleaned and sealed to protect it from the elements, ensuring a long-lasting, easy-to-maintain finish.

The Result

The completed Marmo Anthracite Porcelain Patio has completely transformed the outdoor space, creating a chic, modern, and inviting area. The contrast of the light plank border against the deep anthracite porcelain enhances the design, making it a standout feature in the garden.

We recently had the the pleasure of meeting Simon, Craig & Chris when they did our driveway. What a fantastic job they have completed. These are genuine nice guys, the work was efficient, fast, & as you can see from the photo’s the final product looks amazing. They go above & beyond to exceed customer expectations. They are probably not the cheapest but the quality speaks for itself.

I’m a fussy customer with massive attention to detail so was watching closely whilst the guys were working and discussing details throughout, they rebuilt our front wall and the bricklayer finished it really quickly and to a really high standard. They then laid a block edging on the driveway and finished the driveway with tarmac. The finish looks great and is exactly what I was after. They turned it around really quickly and worked long days to get the job done. The pictures speak for themselves I think. Thanks guys.

Shire Driveways and Landscapes have done both my front drive and back garden. They have done a great job, really pleased with the work and the finished look. They block paved the front, and put patio slabs at the back. Well done! Would recommend :)
