Paving & Patio Installers
Porcelain Paving & Patios
Porcelain paving remains popular for its durability, low maintenance, and clean, contemporary finish. When porcelain paving is installed correctly, it provides a strong, long-lasting surface that performs as well as it looks. With over 15 years of experience as paving installers and patio contractors, we complete porcelain paving and patio installation in Lincoln, Gainsborough, Scunthorpe, Sleaford, and surrounding areas.
As experienced garden landscapers, we prioritise correct preparation and proven installation methods. However, porcelain paving demands more than appearance, as poor preparation causes long-term failure. Therefore, we follow correct paving installation methods to ensure lasting performance. In addition, we act as approved installers for Talasey Landscaping Solutions.
Clients are offered a range of paving options, from budget-friendly porcelain to higher-end Italian porcelain, all available in a range of sizes, from a standard 600mm slab to large-format feature pieces.
Reshape Landscaping Ltd is a Lincoln based paving company covering the whole of Lincolnshire. As patio installers in Lincolnshire, we lay porcelain and Indian sandstone paving slabs for patios, garden paths and block paving, from the sub-base up. We also pave driveways in block paving, so one team can build the driveway and patio together.
Sandstone Paving
Our sandstone paving installation services offer a natural, understated finish that suits gardens where texture and variation matter. At the same time, it works well in modern properties by breaking up strong tones. Its layered surface and subtle colour changes add depth and character, which continue to develop as the stone weathers.
With over 15 years of experience in paving installations, we install a range of sandstone paving options, including Indian sandstone, from natural to sawn smooth surfaces using methods specifically suited to natural stone. Our paving installations achieve consistent levels, secure bedding, and reliable jointing. With all paving, correct installation remains essential for maintaining durability and appearance over time.
In addition, sandstone works effectively for patios, walkways, and informal seating areas. It adapts well to both structured layouts and softer garden designs. A well-installed sandstone patio provides a durable, attractive foundation for outdoor living, combining visual warmth with everyday usability. Our patio maintenance tips explain how to keep a new patio looking its best.
Bespoke Paving
Our bespoke paving services design gardens around how people actually use them. This approach avoids forcing standard layouts into unsuitable areas. We adapt paving sizes, materials, patterns, and levels to suit each garden.
Our team provide custom paving installations that consider movement routes, seating areas, drainage paths, and visual balance. We plan every element before the patio installation begins. This planning ensures the finished surface feels intentional rather than pieced together. Bespoke paving works particularly well in gardens with level changes or irregular boundaries.
It also suits clients who want something unique, such as a sunken entertainment area or different material types such as granite, Yorkshire stone, or Italian porcelain. Thoughtful detailing and accurate setting-out guide flow and maintain a clean, cohesive finish. A custom paving installation creates a strong foundation for outdoor living. We provide paving installation in Lincoln, Gainsborough, Scunthorpe, Sleaford, and surrounding areas across Lincolnshire. As a Lincolnshire paving company, we lay porcelain, Indian sandstone, limestone, granite and Yorkshire stone patios and paving.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is porcelain paving slippery?
No, porcelain paving isn’t slippery when the correct outdoor-rated slabs are used. External porcelain has an anti-slip surface designed for wet conditions, making a porcelain patio safe underfoot.
Does sandstone paving get dirty quickly?
Sandstone is a natural, porous material, so it absorbs moisture, dirt, and organic matter. This means it can darken over time and is more prone to algae and staining, particularly in shaded or damp areas. Regular cleaning and sealing help, but it will always need more maintenance than non-porous paving.
Is porcelain paving expensive?
Porcelain paving comes in a wide range of colours, finishes, and styles, making it suitable for both modern and traditional gardens. With different formats and price points available, there are options to suit most budgets without compromising on durability or performance.
Are you approved installers?
Yes, we are approved installers for all Talasey landscaping products, so you can be confident that materials are installed correctly to manufacturer standards and designed to perform long-term.
How long will the paving installation take?
Most patio installation projects can take between 2 days and 2 weeks, depending on the size of the area, ground conditions, drainage requirements, and overall layout. Correct preparation is essential with porcelain paving, so installation time should never be rushed.
Is porcelain or Indian sandstone better for a patio?
Both work well when installed correctly. Porcelain is non-porous, low maintenance and has an anti-slip surface designed for wet conditions. Indian sandstone gives a natural, textured finish that develops as the stone weathers, but as a porous material it needs more cleaning and maintenance over time.
Do I need to seal a new patio?
Sandstone and other natural stone are porous, so they absorb moisture, dirt and organic matter, and regular cleaning and sealing help keep them looking right. Porcelain is non-porous and needs less maintenance.
