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 Portland

Is it cheaper to lay concrete or pavers?

Where is the cheapest place to buy pavers?

Buying through a pro is usually the most cost-effective way to get materials in Portland. Specialists have established relationships with local suppliers to secure competitive pricing. Hauling heavy stone yourself can be a nightmare in Portland traffic. Let the expert handle the procurement so you get quality materials at the best value for your project.

Do I really need sand under pavers?

Yes, a proper sand layer is mandatory for any stable Portland patio. It provides the necessary drainage and base support to prevent the stones from shifting during rain. Without it, your Portland patio will become uneven very quickly. The expert will explain how the base preparation keeps your surface solid and beautiful for many years.
