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.
About this service
Patio furniture includes tables, chairs, benches, and loungers designed to withstand outdoor conditions. You need these items once your hardscape project is complete to turn your new patio into a functional living space. Choosing the right pieces depends on your local climate, the size of your patio, and how often you plan to host guests. Durable materials like powder-coated metal, teak, or high-quality resin help ensure your furniture lasts through many seasons of outdoor use.
Frequently asked in Pittsburgh
Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers in Pittsburgh?
Typically, concrete has a lower initial cost than pavers in Pittsburgh. However, pavers offer better long-term value through easier repairs and a longer lifespan if installed correctly. Concrete can crack and be costly to fix. The pros can discuss which option makes more sense for your budget and desired outcome.
Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers in Pittsburgh?
To find the most affordable pavers in Pittsburgh, check with local masonry and landscape supply yards. Buying in bulk can often reduce the per-unit cost. The installation specialists you'll work with usually have good relationships with suppliers and can help source materials cost-effectively. Ask them when you call.
Do I really need sand under pavers for my Pittsburgh patio?
Absolutely. A well-prepared base with a layer of paver sand is crucial for a stable and level patio in Pittsburgh. This sand bed allows for minor adjustments, ensures a tight fit between pavers, and helps prevent shifting or heaving. The pros ensure this critical step is done right.
How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost in Pittsburgh?
What is meant by hardscaping?
Hardscaping encompasses the non-living features of your outdoor space. This includes patios, walkways, driveways, retaining walls, and outdoor fireplaces. It's about building functional structures that define and enhance your property's usable areas. Think of it as the architectural elements of your yard.
What is an example of hardscaping?
A common example of hardscaping is a custom-designed paver patio that seamlessly integrates with a stone retaining wall. Another would be a decorative concrete driveway leading to a home, or a series of interconnected flagstone pathways through a garden. These elements provide structure and utility.
