What affects the price
When planning your hardscape, the final cost depends on a few key variables.

About this service
These are weather-resistant floor coverings designed to add color, texture, and comfort to your hardscape. You need them when you want to define specific zones, such as a dining area or a conversation pit, on your patio. They are excellent for covering older surfaces or adding a softer touch to stone. Ensure the surface underneath is properly leveled first, as rugs perform best on smooth, clean pavers or finished concrete.
