What affects the price
Several things change the final quote for a hardscape project. The biggest factor is the size of the area you want covered, followed by the specific materials you choose. Natural stone, for example, usually costs more than standard concrete pavers. You also have to consider site prep; if the ground needs significant grading or old materials removed, that adds labor hours. Complex patterns, retaining walls, or built-in features like fire pits will also shift your budget. We can get you an exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Frequently asked in New York
Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?
Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?
For the best value on pavers in New York, local landscape supply yards and specialized paver retailers are your best bet. They often carry a wide selection and can offer bulk discounts. While big box stores might seem convenient, they may not have the same variety or expertise. The pros we work with can also guide you on where to source materials efficiently.
Do I really need sand under pavers?
Yes, sand is crucial for a stable paver installation, especially in a city like New York where ground conditions can vary. A layer of sand, typically coarse aggregate, is spread over a compacted base. This sand layer allows for slight adjustments and creates a bedding that supports the pavers. Without it, your patio can shift and become uneven over time.
How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost?
What is meant by hardscaping?
Hardscaping refers to the non-living elements of your landscape design. This includes patios, walkways, retaining walls, driveways, and fire pits. In New York, it's about creating functional and beautiful outdoor structures that complement your property. It's the solid foundation for outdoor living, adding both aesthetic appeal and practical use to your space.
What is an example of hardscaping?
A classic example of hardscaping is a well-designed paver patio extending from your back door in New York. Other examples include flagstone walkways winding through a garden, a sturdy retaining wall built on a slope, or an outdoor kitchen area. These elements define spaces and enhance the usability of your property.
