Frequently asked in Seattle

Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?

Concrete typically has a lower initial installation cost. However, pavers can offer better long-term value due to their durability and ease of repair. If a paver cracks, it can be replaced individually, unlike a section of concrete which might require a larger, more visible repair. Get a quote for a direct comparison for your Seattle project.

Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?

Do I really need sand under pavers?

Yes, a layer of sand is essential. This bedding layer creates a smooth, level surface for the pavers and allows for minor adjustments, preventing them from shifting or heaving. It also aids in drainage and overall stability, which is important in Seattle's often wet climate. Proper base preparation is key for a long-lasting patio.

How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost?

The cost for a 20x20 paver patio in Seattle can vary significantly. Factors include the paver material chosen, the design complexity, and any necessary site preparation like grading or drainage improvements. A personalized quote is the best way to get an accurate cost breakdown.
