What affects the price
When planning a hardscape project, several factors influence your final investment. The total square footage is the primary driver, but the complexity of the design—such as curves, patterns, or multi-level tiers—adds to labor time. Site accessibility matters too; if crews need specialized equipment to move materials into a tight backyard, that affects the bottom line. Material choice, from standard concrete blocks to premium natural stone, significantly shifts the budget. Additionally, your current ground condition determines how much excavation and base preparation is required for long-term stability.
About this service
A patio is a paved outdoor area that serves as an extension of your home's living space. You need a patio when you want a dedicated zone for dining, grilling, or lounging in your backyard. Unlike a deck, which is usually elevated and made of wood, a patio is typically set directly on the ground. A well-designed patio acts as the foundation for all your outdoor activities and is the main reason homeowners decide to invest in professional landscape hardscaping.
Frequently asked in Memphis
Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?
Concrete may be cheaper to pour, but pavers are more durable and easier to repair in Memphis. Pavers handle the hot sun and heavy rain without cracking as easily as large slabs. If you need a repair, you can swap out individual stones easily. Discuss the long-term cost benefits with a pro during your free Memphis estimate.
Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?
The cheapest way to acquire pavers in Memphis is through a professional with supplier accounts. They get bulk rates that you won't find at retail stores. Trying to transport heavy materials across Memphis can be time-consuming and expensive. Let the pro handle the entire material order to ensure your project stays within your overall budget.
Do I really need sand under pavers?
Sand is crucial for a level and stable patio in any Memphis yard. It prevents the pavers from rocking and allows for proper drainage during heavy rain. Without a sand base, your Memphis patio will likely sink over time. The specialist will demonstrate how they prepare the ground to ensure your new patio remains perfectly flat.
