Homes in Mount Merrion and what that means for this job

Mount Merrion is a 1930s–1950s suburb of large semi-detached and detached homes with mature gardens. Mount Merrion is in Co. Dublin and falls under Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown.

1930s–1960s houses often have generous gardens with mature trees and older paths and walls that may need rebuilding. 1970s–1990s estate gardens are typically rectangular and ideal for patio, lawn and decking layouts, but often sit on heavy clay. Newer homes can have small gardens with poor, compacted builder's fill, so drainage and soil improvement come first.

What the fix involves and typical cost in Mount Merrion

Excavate, lay a deep sub-base and install block paving, tarmac, gravel or resin, with drainage.

Typical price: €70–€130 per m² (indicative Dublin range incl. VAT). The final price depends on:

  • Size of the area
  • Groundwork and excavation
  • Drainage requirements
  • Materials (natural stone, porcelain, concrete, resin, timber)
