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.

Frequently asked in Salt Lake City

Do I really need sand under pavers?
Yes, a layer of sand, typically paver base followed by a bedding sand layer, is essential. This sand creates a level surface for laying pavers, allows for minor expansion and contraction, and aids in proper drainage, preventing your pavers from shifting or becoming uneven over time in Salt Lake City's climate.
How much would a 20x20 paver patio cost?
