Frequently Asked Questions

How much do pavers cost installed?▼
Paver installation costs $10-$30 per square foot including materials and labor. Concrete pavers are most affordable ($10-$18/sq ft). Brick runs $12-$22/sq ft. Natural stone like travertine or flagstone costs $15-$35/sq ft.
Are pavers better than concrete?▼
Pavers cost 2-3x more upfront but last longer, are easier to repair (replace individual pavers vs patch), and add more home value. Pavers also handle freeze-thaw better and offer more design options. Plain concrete is best for tight budgets.
How long does paver installation take?▼
A 300 sq ft patio takes 2-4 days. Larger projects (500-1000 sq ft) take 4-7 days. Driveways take 3-5 days. Timeline includes excavation, base preparation, paver laying, and joint sand. Weather can extend timelines.
Do pavers require maintenance?▼
Minimal maintenance: sweep regularly, pressure wash annually, re-sand joints every 2-3 years, and seal every 3-5 years ($1-2/sq ft). Weeds between pavers can be prevented with polymeric sand. Individual damaged pavers are easily replaced.
What is the best base for pavers?▼
A proper base includes: 4-6 inches of compacted gravel/crushed stone, 1 inch of leveling sand, then pavers, then joint sand. This prevents settling and drainage issues. Skimping on base preparation leads to uneven pavers within years.
