Why Invest in a New Patio?
An external patio is an outdoor living area, typically paved or tiled, designed to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing space for relaxation, socialising, or dining. Patios are usually situated in gardens, backyards, or other outdoor areas, and can be seamlessly integrated with the rest of the home or garden design.
Investing in a new patio offers several advantages. It can significantly enhance your property’s kerb appeal, increasing its value while providing a practical, low-maintenance outdoor space. Professionally installed patios are designed to complement your home’s style and landscape, ensuring they are both durable and functional. Furthermore, a well-constructed patio offers better drainage and prevents water from pooling, thus protecting your property’s foundation.
There are various types of patios to choose from, including paved, stone, block, and gravel, each offering its unique style and benefits. A professionally installed patio ensures that the right materials and installation techniques are used to create a long-lasting and attractive outdoor space, tailored to suit your needs and preferences.

What Our Customers Say...
FAQs – Patios in Dorset
Yes – coastal properties often face more extreme weather conditions, including salt spray and high winds. We recommend materials such as fibre cement or composite cladding for homes in areas like Poole and Christchurch, as they are specifically designed to withstand harsh coastal environments. These options are moisture-resistant, won’t warp or rot, and require very little upkeep.
Absolutely. External cladding adds an extra layer of thermal protection to your property. This helps reduce heat loss in the winter and can contribute to lower energy bills over time. When paired with insulation backing boards, cladding systems can significantly improve the energy efficiency of homes across Dorset.
In most cases, planning permission is not required for cladding your property, especially if you’re using similar materials and finishes to the original design. However, if your home is listed, in a conservation area, or you’re planning a major visual change, local planning rules in Dorset (such as in Bournemouth or Christchurch town centres) may apply. We can advise you on this during your consultation.
For most standard homes, cladding installation is completed within 3 to 5 working days. Larger or more complex projects may take longer, but we’ll provide a clear timeline as part of your quote. We always aim to minimise disruption and complete work efficiently.
uPVC and composite cladding typically have lifespans of 25 to 30 years with minimal maintenance. Fibre cement cladding can last even longer – often 40 years or more – and offers excellent resistance to fire, rot and pests. Choosing a reputable installer like Prize Home Products ensures your cladding performs at its best for decades.
Yes – we offer cladding systems in a variety of colours, profiles, and finishes to complement both modern and traditional Dorset homes. Whether you’re in a period cottage in Wimborne or a more contemporary home in Poole, we’ll help you find a style that fits.
