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 Philadelphia
Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?
Concrete can be less expensive upfront, but pavers often offer better long-term value due to their durability and simpler repair process. The specific paver style and complexity of the installation in Philadelphia will influence the final price. We can provide a detailed quote for your specific needs.
Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?
Do I really need sand under pavers?
Yes, a sand bedding layer is essential for a successful paver installation. It provides a smooth, level surface for the pavers and allows for proper drainage, preventing issues like cracking and shifting, which are common in Philadelphia's freeze-thaw cycles. The pros we work with ensure this is done right.
How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost?
The cost for a 20x20 paver patio in Philadelphia depends on the paver material chosen, the intricacy of the design, and any necessary site preparation. Factors like accessibility for the crew and materials in your neighborhood are also considered. We'll give you a precise, no-obligation estimate.
What is meant by hardscaping?
Hardscaping refers to the man-made, non-living elements of your landscape, such as patios, walkways, driveways, and retaining walls. Pavers are a popular material for creating these functional and attractive features. It's about building durable structures for your Philadelphia property.
What is an example of hardscaping?
A beautiful paver patio designed for relaxing or entertaining is a great example of hardscaping. Other examples include a winding stone walkway through your garden or a functional retaining wall to manage changes in elevation. These elements add significant value and usability to your outdoor space.
