Who should install your products?

O U T S I D E

Finding the right tradesman can be difficult, but we’ve done all the hard work for you with our list of AG Recommended Installers. These experts have passed our careful selection process to gain our tick of approval – so you know your project is in good hands. To find your local AG Recommended Installer visit our website or call in to one of our four Outside Room Centres.

How to choose. Plan early. Good contractors are in demand and are often booked up weeks or months in advance. Be wary of contractors who can start immediately. Always get more than one quote. We recommend getting at least three but make sure they are like-for-like for a true 6

price comparison. These should be dated with details of how long the quotation is valid for and must be on headed paper with the contractor’s contact information. Check them out. Ask if they have the relevant Public & Employer Liability insurance and if they are members of any trade associations. Ask for references from previous customers and details of where their work can be viewed. Ask their advice. The added bonus of contacting more than one contractor is that you often get a range of valuable free design advice. Many will have a photograph album of previous jobs that can help you visualise how our products will look in your plan. Don’t decide purely on price. It’s important that you feel comfortable with your contractor, that they understand your needs and that you’re confident in their abilities.

Once you’ve made your decision. Get an estimated start and completion date. These should be a little flexible as they can often change due to weather conditions and extended time spent on earlier jobs. Make any changes from the initial quotation and have an up-to-date quotation agreed and drawn up. Make sure you understand the plan fully and that the area measurements and order quantities are correct. Take an ongoing interest in the work and if there are any variations to what has been agreed, deal with them face-to-face. To avoid wastage. Get your contractor to accurately measure areas on site before placing an order. It’s important to note that AG do not accept returns on any materials.

Long Stone paving in Frassino, Canterra® flagstones in Silver with jointing grout and Mile Stone kerbing + seating in Slate

While gardening in the towns and cities may not be as easy as stepping outside into a fertile backyard, it’s far from impossible and in some ways even preferable!

S T Y L E

What is an urban garden? At its heart, it’s a garden that has to conform to a small or specific space. Beyond that, it can take all kinds of forms, depending upon what your site calls for.

AG’s new cement replacement means every product with Enduur now has cement content with 70% less embodied carbon per % of cement replaced.

By using the highest quality natural, reclaimed and recycled aggregates our products feature exceptional UV performance and enhanced, long lasting colours.

EX AMPLES OF COMMON SPILLS

FInally. A little effort goes a long way. Pain free dirt, debris, stains and spills AG Enduur 2 comes as standard with Fiamma flagstones. Enduur 2 adds a surface protection layer. It’s environmentally friendly, water-based and non-toxic which delivers easier product maintenance and enhanced stain resistance.

The fresh crisp look of Plaza makes it particularly suited for use in projects with a contemporary feel. The ability to weather well and even improve with age, combined with durability and a slip resistant surface, means it’s a winner on all counts. Plaza paving uses high grade aggregates, including granite, combined with a ‘washed’ finish for a premium, natural texture that oozes quality.

But in case you haven’t, here’s a quick low-down: at double the thickness of a standard tile, these slabs are designed solely for outdoor use, meaning they’re incredibly hard-wearing, stainresistant and practical. Ideal for British gardens and our sometimes unpredictable weather. Waterfall 36

STEPS + RAMPS COLLECTION

Every part of a garden should be enjoyed by everyone: bring both accessibility and design to all parts of your outside space with our paving and walling. Make a few clever choices early on – such as choosing a textured surface for gently sloping pathways - adding to the slip resistance which is doubly important for an incline.

D E S I G N

T I P

Make good use of colour and contrast your steps and ramps. Use contrasting colours to help give each step more impact. Step edges that are contrasted to step treads improve safety by helping to visually reinforce the change from flat surfaces to steps.

ST EP 2

J O I N T I N G

CHOOSE YOUR STEP RISER — from our range of kerbs. We have something to suit all tastes and styles, from rustic to more contemporary. The ideal rise is about 150mm (6 inches) and our products are designed to give you this + around 50mm (2 inches) to bury firmly into the ground. Remember to consider any curves and corners in your step when choosing a riser.

ST EP 3 CHOOSE THE TREAD OF YOUR STEP / RAMP — i.e. the flagstone or paving block you wish to use for the top surface of your step. This is entirely up to your personal preference as any of our flags or paving blocks are suitable. Flags tend to give a more contemporary look, while paving blocks, such as our Country Cobble®, will look more traditional. All AG products comply with statutory testing to ensure low slip/skid risk, but choosing a textured product will give your step even more grip than a ground surface. Our products are available in a range of colours to suit all projects. N. B .

Who knew building a wall could be so easy? The beauty of Anchor® Aspen StoneTM retaining walls isn’t only in the highly textured, richly coloured finish, it’s also in the simplicity of its construction. With no need for mortar or adhesives, each stone simply slots into the other so it’s quick and easy to construct and can be used to build walls up to 0.6m (2ft) high.

Our Woodward collection is available in two finishes. The ‘Smooth’ finish is vibrant with a smooth, sharp crispness; while the ‘Antique’ finish is rumbled with mellow pastels in the reclaimed style. Woodward is designed with a hollow depression on the top face - commonly known as a frog - which reduces the weight of the brick, thus making it easier to handle.
