Finally Use Your Backyard Year-Round

Your backyard should work for you, not against you. No more avoiding that uneven, muddy area where you’d rather be hosting barbecues or enjoying morning coffee.

A properly installed patio gives you solid, level ground that drains correctly and handles Pennsylvania’s weather without cracking or shifting. You get a space that’s actually usable – whether you’re entertaining guests, letting kids play safely, or just want somewhere decent to sit outside.

The right patio installation means you stop worrying about water pooling, weeds growing through cracks, or having to explain to guests why half your yard is off-limits. Instead, you get outdoor space that adds real value to how you live and what your property is worth.

Patio Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Installation

We start with a site visit to assess your space, drainage, and what you actually want to use the patio for. No generic solutions – we look at your specific property and discuss material options that make sense for your budget and goals.

Next comes proper excavation and base preparation. This is where most problems start if it’s done wrong, so we take time to create a stable foundation with correct grading for drainage. We’re not rushing this part to get to the next job.

Then we install your chosen materials – whether that’s natural stone, concrete, or pavers – with attention to proper spacing, leveling, and finishing details. You’ll see the progress each day, and we clean up as we go so your property isn’t a disaster zone while we work.

What's Included in Your Installation

Your patio installation includes complete site preparation, proper excavation to required depth, and installation of a stable base that won’t shift or settle over time. We handle all the groundwork that determines whether your patio lasts five years or fifty.

Material installation covers your choice of natural stone, concrete, or pavers, installed with proper joint spacing and leveling. We also include necessary drainage solutions to keep water moving away from your home’s foundation – a critical detail in Brookhaven’s clay soil conditions.

Finishing work includes edge restraints, joint filling, and cleanup of your entire property. You get a completed patio that’s ready to use immediately, plus guidance on maintenance to keep it looking good for years. We don’t disappear after installation – you know how to reach us if questions come up later.

How long does a typical patio installation take in Brookhaven?

Most patio installations take 3-5 days depending on size and complexity, but weather and soil conditions in Brookhaven can affect timing. Clay soil takes longer to excavate properly, and we won’t install materials in wet conditions because it compromises the foundation. We’d rather take an extra day to do it right than rush and create problems later. During your consultation, we’ll give you a realistic timeline based on your specific project and current weather patterns. We also coordinate with you on timing so the work fits your schedule as much as possible.

What's the best patio material for Brookhaven's climate and soil conditions?

Natural stone and concrete pavers both perform well in southeastern Pennsylvania’s freeze-thaw cycles, but the choice depends on your budget and style preferences. Stone costs more upfront but handles weather changes without much maintenance. Concrete pavers offer more design flexibility and cost less initially, though they may need occasional releveling over time. Solid concrete can crack with ground movement, which is common in Brookhaven’s clay soil. We’ll assess your specific site conditions and explain which materials make the most sense for your property and budget during our consultation.

How do you handle drainage issues during patio installation?

Proper drainage is critical in Brookhaven because clay soil doesn’t absorb water quickly, leading to pooling and foundation problems. We grade your patio to direct water away from your home and create drainage channels where needed. Sometimes this means installing French drains or adding gravel layers beneath the patio surface. We also make sure the patio surface itself has enough slope to shed water without being noticeable when you’re using the space. Every installation includes a drainage plan specific to your property’s existing water flow patterns.

What should I expect to pay for professional patio installation?

Patio installation costs vary based on size, materials, site conditions, and design complexity. Basic concrete patios start around $8-12 per square foot, while natural stone installations can range from $15-25 per square foot or more for premium materials. The total project cost includes excavation, base preparation, materials, and installation – not just the surface materials. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Factors like difficult access, extensive drainage work, or complex designs will affect pricing, which we’ll discuss during your consultation.

Do you handle permits and inspections for patio installations?

Most basic patio installations in Brookhaven don’t require permits, but larger projects or those involving significant grading might need township approval. We know local requirements and will handle permit applications if your project needs them. This includes providing necessary drawings and specifications to meet township standards. We also coordinate any required inspections so your project stays on schedule. If you’re unsure whether your project needs permits, we’ll check with Brookhaven Township during our initial consultation and factor any permit costs into your project estimate.

How do I maintain my new patio after installation?

Maintenance depends on your patio material, but most installations need minimal ongoing care. Stone and concrete patios benefit from annual cleaning and occasional resealing to prevent staining and weather damage. Paver patios may need joint sand replenishment every few years and occasional releveling if individual pavers settle. We provide specific maintenance guidelines for your installation, including recommended cleaning products and schedules. Most importantly, keep drainage areas clear of leaves and debris so water continues flowing away from the patio surface. Simple annual maintenance prevents most problems and keeps your patio looking good for decades.
