Garden Slabs Farnham — Premium Paving for Surrey’s Historic Market Town
At Paving and Slabs Ltd, we understand that Farnham gardens are defined by a unique blend of heritage and modern outdoor living. From the Georgian elegance of the town centre to the sprawling woodland plots in Lower Bourne and Rowledge, your patio needs to be as resilient as it is beautiful. We have become a trusted supplier of garden slabs in Farnham by offering materials that stand up to Surrey's seasonal shifts while complementing the local vernacular of red brick and flint. Whether you are designing a contemporary "indoor-outdoor" transition in Wrecclesham or a traditional courtyard near the Castle, our range provides the professional finish your project deserves.
We deliver daily across the GU9 and GU10 postcode areas. We specialise in high-performance outdoor porcelain and ethically sourced natural stone, ensuring Farnham homeowners and landscapers have access to the highest quality materials on the market.
Paving Designed for Surrey’s Unique Geology
Farnham sits at the intersection of the North Downs' chalk and the sandy beds of the Weald. While these soils often offer better drainage than heavy clay, they can be prone to "washout" or settling if a sub-base isn't correctly prepared. When choosing garden slabs in Farnham, stability is key. Our porcelain paving is a favourite for local projects; its density makes it virtually impervious to water, preventing the algae growth that thrives in the shaded, wooded areas around The Bourne.
For properties with a heritage feel, our Indian Sandstone offers a timeless, riven finish that bridges the gap between old-world charm and modern durability. To see why stone is the superior choice for Surrey homes, read our guide on paving vs gravel and decking.
Expert Tip: Ground Preparation in GU9 & GU10
Because much of Farnham features "Folkestone Formation" sands, ensuring your sub-base is properly compacted is vital to prevent slabs from tilting over time. We recommend a minimum 150mm compacted MOT Type 1 layer. For projects near the river Wey or in areas with higher moisture levels, integrated drainage channels are essential to prevent standing water. For more technical details, see our installation guide.

The Smart Choice for Surrey Landscaping
Unlike standard concrete slabs found in big-box DIY stores, our garden slabs are selected for their high compressive strength and frost resistance. They are designed to withstand the "freeze-thaw" cycles of a Surrey winter without surface flaking. By investing in professional-grade paving slabs, you ensure your garden remains a safe, slip-resistant, and high-value asset to your home for years to come.
Planning Advice: When ordering your garden slabs, always **add 10% extra** to your total square meterage. This accounts for essential cuts around curved borders and any minor wastage. Check our size and thickness guide to match the right stone to your garden's foot traffic.

Farnham Paving FAQs
Do you deliver garden slabs to residential addresses in Farnham?
Yes. We deliver via tail-lift vehicles to almost all residential addresses. All we require is a flat, hard surface (like a driveway or kerbside) for the safe offloading of the pallets.
Which slabs are best for a north-facing Surrey garden?
For shaded gardens, we highly recommend porcelain. Its non-porous surface prevents moss and algae from taking hold, ensuring your patio doesn't become slippery in the damp winter months.
Do garden slabs require sealing?
Sealing is optional but recommended for natural stone like sandstone to preserve its colour and protect against stains. Porcelain is non-porous and does not require sealing. Visit our Maintenance Guide for more tips.
How do I manage drainage for my new patio?
In Farnham’s variable soils, a 1:60 fall is essential to direct water away from the property. On steeper sloping sites, retaining walls and integrated drainage channels may be needed. See our Drainage Guide for more help.
