Your New Wood Patio Starts Here

If you’re thinking of adding a wood patio to your Redhills home, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve been building patios across County Cavan for years, and we know what works in our local climate. No two gardens are the same, so we take the time to design something that fits your space and your budget. Whether you want a small seating area for morning coffee or a large outdoor dining space for summer parties, we can help.
Why Choose Pressure-Treated Timber?

We only use pressure-treated timber for our patios. It’s rot resistant and built to last through Cavan’s wet winters. Your patio will be built on a solid base with proper drainage, so you won’t have to worry about shifting or water pooling. As a trusted landscaping contractor in Redhills, we’ve installed dozens of patios that still look great years later. For example, we recently completed a wood patio construction in Canningstown that turned a muddy patch into a beautiful outdoor room. We handle everything from the initial design to the final sealant coat. We also advise on the best wood type for your specific needs.
Our Patio Building Process
We start with a free site visit to check the ground conditions and talk about what you want. Then we prepare the area, dig out the old soil, and lay a compacted hardcore base for stability. After that, we install the timber framework and deck boards, using stainless steel screws to avoid rust and keep the structure solid. Finally, we apply a protective oil or stain to preserve the wood. The whole process usually takes 3 to 5 days, depending on the size and complexity of your design.

Common questions about wood patio construction in Redhills
How long does a wood patio last?
With proper maintenance and pressure-treated timber, your patio can last 15 to 20 years. We recommend annual cleaning and resealing every 2 to 3 years. Regular sweeping and removing leaves also helps extend its life. We can give you a care sheet after installation.
Do I need planning permission for a patio in Redhills?
Generally, patios under 50 square meters don’t need permission. But if you’re near a boundary or in a conservation area, check with Cavan County Council. We can advise you during the quote. It’s always best to be safe.
Can you build on a slope?
Yes, we can. We’ll build a stepped or terraced design to handle the slope. We use proper drainage to prevent water issues and ensure stability. The extra work may add a bit to the cost but worth it for a safe and functional patio.
What types of wood do you use?
We mainly use pressure-treated softwood like pine or spruce. For a premium option, we can source hardwoods like ipe or cedar. Each has different durability and price points, and we’ll help you choose the best one for your budget. We always use responsibly sourced timber.

More about our wood patio construction work
Redhills has its own conditions when it comes to wood patio construction. The ground, the weather exposure, and the type of homes in the area all play a part in how we approach the job. We have worked on plenty of projects around Redhills over the years, so we know what to expect. That local knowledge saves time and means fewer surprises once we start.
We do all kinds of wood patio construction work in Redhills. Some jobs are straightforward, others need a bit more thought. Either way, we price the work honestly and do not cut corners. If we hit a problem during the build, we stop and talk to you about it before carrying on. That is just how we work.
A lot of our work in Redhills comes from word of mouth. Someone sees a job we have done at a neighbour’s house or hears about us from a family member. That matters to us. We know that in a place like Redhills, reputation travels fast. So we make sure every job, big or small, gets the same attention to detail.
If you need other work done around the property, we can often combine it with the wood patio construction job and save you time.

The materials we use for wood patio construction in Redhills are chosen for the local conditions. We do not use one size fits all products.
