Frequently asked in Pittsburgh

Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?

While concrete might seem cheaper initially for your Pittsburgh patio, pavers often provide better long-term value. Pavers are more resistant to cracking from freeze-thaw cycles common in Pittsburgh and are easier to repair if damaged. The overall cost depends on the paver style and design complexity. We’ll give you a clear quote.

Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?

Do I really need sand under pavers?

Absolutely, a proper sand base is critical for paver longevity. This layer creates a uniform bedding for the pavers, allowing for slight adjustments and ensuring good drainage, which is vital in Pittsburgh's climate. Without it, pavers can shift and settle unevenly. The pros ensure this is done right.
