Answer

Can you lay a patio around a tree?

Yes; respect the root protection area, often with a no-dig build-up, and leave room to grow.

In short

Yes, with care for the tree. We design the patio to respect the root protection area, often with a no-dig build-up rather than excavation, and leave room for the trunk to grow. Done well, a mature tree becomes the best feature of the patio rather than a problem.
