Frequently asked in Chicago

Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?

While concrete might have a lower upfront cost in Chicago, pavers often prove more economical long-term. Pavers are more resistant to cracking from freeze-thaw cycles and are easier to repair if individual pieces are damaged. The overall cost depends on paver style and installation complexity.

Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?

Do I really need sand under pavers?

Absolutely. A critical layer of sand acts as a bedding for pavers, ensuring a level surface and allowing for proper drainage in Chicago's climate. This prevents shifting and heaving due to temperature changes. The crew will ensure the correct base and sand preparation.

How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost?

What is an example of hardscaping?
