What affects the price
When planning a hardscape project, several factors influence the total investment. The type of materials you select—whether natural stone, concrete pavers, or permeable options—plays a significant role. The scope of work, including site preparation, excavation, and existing landscape removal, also impacts the bottom line. Projects involving complex patterns, curves, or integrated features like fire pits and retaining walls require more labor and time. Soil conditions and drainage needs can add complexity, affecting overall installation requirements. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
About this service
Installing pavers involves more than just setting stones; it requires excavating the area, installing a crushed rock base, and laying sand bedding. Costs are driven by the quality of the pavers, the size of the footprint, and the amount of grading needed to ensure water drains away from your home. We assess your yard to give you an accurate estimate. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
Frequently asked in Norfolk
Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?
In Norfolk, concrete typically has a lower upfront installation cost than pavers. However, pavers offer greater design flexibility, easier repairs by replacing individual stones, and a refined aesthetic that can add significant value to your property over time. The long-term durability and repairability of pavers often make them a sounder investment.
Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?
Do I really need sand under pavers?
Yes, a layer of coarse bedding sand is a critical component of any paver installation. It ensures a level and smooth surface for the pavers, allowing for minor adjustments during laying. This base layer is essential for the stability, appearance, and longevity of your patio in Norfolk's coastal climate.
How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost?
The cost for a 20x20 paver patio in Norfolk can vary widely based on the chosen paver material, design intricacy, and the necessary site preparation. Natural stone or premium concrete pavers will be more expensive than basic options. A free, personalized quote is the most accurate way to determine the price.

It provides the structural foundation and aesthetic framework for your outdoor living areas. In Norfolk, it's about creating durable and attractive features that enhance your property and complement the coastal environment.
What is an example of hardscaping?
A common example of hardscaping is a custom-designed paver patio that expands your home's living space, perfect for enjoying the Virginia coast. Another example includes a sturdy paver walkway leading through your garden or a functional retaining wall to manage slopes and create different levels in your yard.
