Patio Questions We Hear Often
Paver patios are a popular choice because they are durable, attractive, and available in many styles and colors.
Project timelines vary depending on size, layout, and site conditions, but we can give you a clear idea during the estimate process.
Small patios can be completed in less than a week from when we break ground.
Yes, when installed properly with the right base preparation and drainage, paver patios can perform very well in Michigan conditions.

Yes. We help homeowners choose layouts, materials, and features that fit their property and goals.
There is a saying that there are 2 types of concrete. Cracked ones, and soon to be cracked. Even with reinforcement, concrete can crack.
Even if it isn’t cracked, when installing, even stamped concrete, requires lines to be cut into them. This leaves breaks in the pattern so the concrete has a guided area to crack in, which it never follows.
One of the areas that pavers shine is that they are repairable. With Concrete, you have to cut out a section and pour new concrete. With pavers, you can lift out blocks, repair under them, and put them back with new joint sand. Or you can replace broken pavers.
There are very few regulations in Michigan for patios.
We excavate and prepare the base using installation practices recommended by the Concrete Masonry & Hardscapes Association (CMHA) for freeze-thaw climates like Michigan. Proper base preparation and drainage are critical to ensuring a patio stays level and performs well over time.
