What affects the price

When planning your hardscape, the final cost depends on a few key variables. First, the size of your space and the specific materials you choose, such as natural stone versus concrete pavers, play a huge role. Complex patterns, drainage needs, and site preparation—like excavation or leveling uneven ground—also influence the total. We provide exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

This service involves clearing the existing ground, laying down a crushed stone base, and compacting it before placing the pavers. It is necessary when you want a stable, low-maintenance surface for your backyard that won't crack like traditional concrete. Proper installation is critical because it prevents shifting and weed growth. If you are tired of muddy grass or uneven dirt patches, a professionally installed paver patio provides a solid, flat foundation for your outdoor activities.

Frequently asked in Minneapolis

Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?

Concrete is less expensive initially, but pavers are far more resistant to Minneapolis freeze-thaw cycles. Pavers allow for minor ground movement without cracking, saving you from expensive repairs later. Call us to speak with a pro about the best long-term choice. They will explain why pavers offer better value here.

Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?

The pros in Minneapolis usually have access to contractor pricing that is lower than retail store costs. This is the smartest way to get quality materials for your patio. Call us to discuss your project and learn how to save. They manage the supply chain to ensure your costs remain low.

Do I really need sand under pavers?

Yes, a deep sand base is critical in Minneapolis to manage drainage and prevent frost damage. If you skip this layer, your patio will buckle as soon as the ground freezes and thaws. The specialist will ensure your base is built for our weather. This step is non-negotiable for lasting quality.

How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost?
