The scope of work, including site preparation, excavation, and existing landscape removal, also impacts the bottom line.

Frequently asked in Philadelphia

Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?

The initial cost of concrete might be slightly lower, but pavers often offer better long-term value in Philadelphia. Pavers can be individually replaced if damaged, which is more cost-effective than resurfacing concrete. We can help you weigh the pros and cons for your specific situation.

Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?

Do I really need sand under pavers?

Yes, a layer of bedding sand is essential for a properly installed paver system. This sand creates a level and stable base, allowing for minor adjustments during laying. Proper drainage, enhanced by the sand base, is crucial for preventing issues in Philadelphia's climate. It's a vital preparation step.

How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost?

What is meant by hardscaping?

What is an example of hardscaping?

A beautiful paver patio is a prime example, offering a great space for outdoor entertaining. Other examples include charming brick pathways or functional retaining walls that manage landscape slopes. These elements add both beauty and utility to your Philadelphia home.
