Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of interlocking concrete pavers?
Interlocking concrete is a durable and weather-resistant choice for your new patio. You can also stain it to give a unique look that blends with the rest of your home. Traditional concrete might cost less to install than concrete pavers, but it's not as strong and will require more maintenance throughout its lifetime.
How should I care for my new patio?
Paver patios might seem like a significant investment. But once you have had one installed, it requires very little care and attention to keep it in top condition. You will likely want to sweep and rinse your patio to remove debris and dirt, or even require a sealer solution every few years to keep it looking fresh. There are also specialized solutions available if your pavers become stained. With the proper care, a paver walkway or patio can last for several decades.
What are the installation costs for a paver patio?
When planning this type of project, it is important to remember that laying patio pavers is a long and complex task. Patio contractors often charge for their labor by the hour, with brick paver installation costing $70 an hour on average*.
What other factors can affect the cost of my patio?
Your patio may be more expensive to install if there are additional factors involved such as the removal of an old patio, demolition work or grading. Removing an old asphalt driveway starts from around $3 per square foot*.
