Wood Patio Construction in Milltown, County Cavan

Need a wood patio that looks good and lasts? We build them right here in Milltown, using pressure-treated timber and proper drainage. No shortcuts, just solid work. You pick the size and design, we handle the digging, levelling, and fixing. We’ve done plenty of jobs around the area, so we know the ground conditions and what works.

Built for Cavan Weather

Milltown gets its share of rain, so your patio needs a good base and the right timber. We use pressure-treated boards that resist rot and insect damage. We dig down, lay a compacted hardcore base, and add a membrane to stop weeds pushing through. The frame sits on concrete pads or gravel, with gaps underneath for airflow. That stops water pooling and keeps the wood dry. No fancy treatments, just practical construction that holds up year after year. We’ve also done many wood patio construction in Butlersbridge and other nearby towns, so we know what works in this climate.

What We Do, From Clearing to Finish

We handle the whole job, from clearing the ground to the final board. Here’s what’s included:

• Site clearance, we remove old slabs, grass, or rubble and level the area.
• Sub-base, hardcore and sharp sand compaction, with falls for drainage away from your house walls) in Milltown.
• Timber frame, pressure-treated joists on supports, spaced right for strength.
• Decking boards, laid with gaps for water run-off, fixed with hidden clips for a clean look.

We also treat the wood with a protective oil after installation (you can top it up yourself each year). Usually a 3x4m patio takes us two to three days, depending on access and ground conditions.
