How do we know when to pay a little more for something and know it’s worth it??? There are many reasons as to why we buy something, and yet it always comes down to a few questions...

Choosing a Contractor | Outdoor Living | Pavers
So this is the year that you decided that it was time for that paver patio project you've been thinking about. That is great, because if that's the fact, this article was written specifically for you!

Have you ever seen a paver patio that had weeds or moss growing in the joints? How about areas with a lot of ant hills following the paver joints? Or entire sections of a paver area that had no sand in the joints whatsoever - because it had all washed out? These are all things we have seen, and they're maybe the reason you haven't wanted pavers. And yet... you really like the look of a beautiful stone patio or driveway with an accenting border - it's just gorgeous. There's hope. Pavers no longer have to be such an eyesore or so much maintenance. We can now use polymeric sand (or poly sand, as we like to call it).

The most common question we get asked when considering a paver project is, “How much does it cost per square foot to install pavers?” Unfortunately, there is no simple answer. Sure, we can do calculations all day long to figure out that last week we installed a 430 sf patio for Mrs. Jones for $9,245.00, and with some quick math, we know that it was installed for $21.50 per square foot. But what about next door? We installed a walkway last week for the Smiths and the price per square foot was closer to $28.00. What gives? Why did the Smiths have to pay so much more? And what goes into the pricing for each job?
