Paver Patios Built Around How You’ll Use Them
A table for six. A fire pit with room for chairs. We shape your patio around how you’ll use it, then build it with Techo-Bloc pavers on a compacted stone base.
Start with the table, the fire pit and the chairs
Before we talk about pavers, we ask how you’ll use the patio. How many people. A dining table. A fire pit with room for chairs around it. This information decides how much square footage you need and how it’s laid out.
From there we give you a 2D drawing of the space. It’s what we measure and price from, and it’s where the layout gets settled with you.
We build new patios, extend and replace existing ones, and take on repairs and surface restoration.
Patios are one part of the hardscaping we build.
The part you never see.
A patio is only as level as what’s under it. Here’s what goes down before the first paver, and how we handle the water and the yard around it.
Excavate
We dig out the patio area to make room for a proper base.
Weed fabric
A layer of fabric helps keep weeds and other growth from coming up through the finished patio.
Compacted 57 stone
A gravel that locks together when it’s compacted and lets water drain straight through.
Concrete sand
A compactable sand layer that gives the pavers a smooth, even bed to sit on.
Pavers and edge restraint
The pavers go down, and an edge restraint holds every open edge. Where the patio meets a driveway, walkway or another patio, that surface holds the edge instead.
Polymeric sand
Swept into the joints and set, it locks the pavers into one surface built to stay put under everyday foot traffic.
Every patio is pitched to drain.
We build in a slight slope so rain runs off toward your lawn or beds, away from the house. Heavy clay or a yard that already holds water may need more, like raising the patio or adding a drain along its edge. Every install gets its own drainage plan.
We put the lawn back.
When equipment has to cross the yard, we lay plywood so tracks don’t run on the grass. Digging still roughs up the ground around the patio, and sod is how we prefer to repair it. Where sod isn’t in the scope, we put down straw and seed so grass comes back instead of mud.
Techo-Bloc first, for a reason
Techo-Bloc is the manufacturer we buy from first. We focus on the Techo-Bloc products that are most readily available, so material turnaround stays short.
Other manufacturers, on request
If you need something specific, or a price point our catalog can’t reach, we can source from other manufacturers.
Natural stone
It isn’t what we install most, but we can install it. We’ll talk it through at your consultation.
Chosen at your consultation
Material drives price, so we settle it with you before we quote. If you’re torn on color, that can wait until after you approve the estimate, before installation starts.
What a patio costs
These ranges are a starting point, not a quote. Your price comes from your consultation, once we’ve agreed on size, layout and materials.
$10,000–$20,000
A simple rectangular patio, around 10 by 20 feet. Materials and anything else in the scope decide where it lands.
$20,000–$40,000
Larger patios with more square footage and more material choices, or a patio built together with other features.
$40,000+
Several pieces built as one project: a seating area, a wall, a fire pit, more than one room of patio.
One of the first things we’ll ask about is your budget ceiling. Knowing it lets us shape a plan that fits, and if something won’t, we’ll tell you where the plan needs to change.

What homeowners ask before they build
How long does a patio installation take?
Most average-size patios take 3 to 5 days on site. Larger patios take longer, and a very small pad, like one for trash bins, can be done in a day. Weather is the most common delay: if the site is too wet or muddy to prepare or reach, we wait for it to dry out. A delay on an earlier job can also push a start date.
Do I need a permit for a paver patio?
Usually not. Residential patios rarely need one. If yours does, typically because a gas line is being extended or electrical work is involved, we handle the permit.
What about my HOA?
The approval request comes from you, but we give you what HOAs usually ask for: the drawing and the scope of the project.
Will weeds grow up between the pavers?
We lay weed fabric under the base to help keep weeds and other growth from coming up through the patio, and polymeric sand in the joints locks the surface together.
What happens at the free consultation?
We talk through how you’ll use the space, your budget, the design and the materials, and you get a price before we leave.
Does Peak Sodding repair the lawn after hardscaping work?
Yes. Heavy equipment damages turf on almost every hardscaping project. Because Peak Sodding installs sod as its core business, the lawn is restored as part of the job rather than left for the homeowner to arrange separately.
