Patios, Paving and Steps

Brick Patios

A brick patio is one of the most durable and welcoming outdoor floors you can build. We excavate, lay a compacted base, set the brick in your chosen pattern with a clean border and fill the joints, so it drains well and stays flat season after season.

Questions

About brick patios

How long does a brick patio last?

A well-built brick patio can last for decades. The base, drainage and edge restraint matter more than anything else.

Can I walk on bricks in bare feet in summer?

Clay brick stays cooler than many surfaces, and lighter colors stay cooler still.

How do I keep weeds out of the joints?

Polymeric sand and a properly compacted bed help keep joints tight, and an occasional sweep and refill keeps them that way.
