It is a simple, effective addition that allows you to use your patio comfortably throughout the afternoon while protecting your guests from direct heat.

Frequently asked in Raleigh

Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?

Concrete typically has a lower initial installation cost than pavers in Raleigh. However, pavers can offer better long-term value. They are more resistant to cracking from temperature fluctuations and can be repaired by replacing individual units, which is often more economical than patching a concrete slab.

Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?

For the most competitive prices on pavers in the Raleigh area, consider sourcing from local landscape supply yards or directly from paver manufacturers. Buying in larger quantities can also lead to cost savings. The professionals we work with can often provide competitive material pricing.

Do I really need sand under pavers?

Yes, a layer of bedding sand is essential. This sand, placed over a properly prepared and compacted base layer, allows for precise leveling of the pavers and provides a cushion. It is critical for proper drainage and to prevent the pavers from settling or becoming uneven over time in Raleigh's climate.

How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost?

The cost for a 20x20 paver patio in Raleigh varies widely. Key factors include the type of paver selected, the complexity of the design, and the specific site conditions that require preparation. The depth of the base material and any additional features will also influence the final price. A free quote will provide an accurate cost.

What is meant by hardscaping?

Hardscaping refers to the non-living, structural elements of your landscape design. This includes features like patios, walkways, driveways, and retaining walls. These elements provide functionality, define outdoor spaces, and enhance the overall aesthetic appeal and usability of your property.

What is an example of hardscaping?

A paver patio is a classic example of hardscaping, offering a durable and attractive surface for outdoor living, ideal for placing patio furniture and a patio umbrella. Other examples include stone pathways, brick garden walls, or a concrete driveway. These are permanent features that shape your outdoor environment.
