Custom Patios: The Perfect Space to Enjoy Home Outdoor



You’re probably wondering what the difference between a deck and a patio is…



It’s a great question — and one we get all the time. While both decks and patios expand your living space outdoors, they each have their own style, structure, and purpose.


A deck is typically elevated off the ground, built from materials like wood or composite (we’re TimberTech Certified Installers, so we know a thing or two about great decks). A patio, on the other hand, is built at ground level — usually made from stone, pavers, or concrete — and is perfect for creating a seamless flow from your home into your backyard.


So if you love the look of natural stone, want something low-maintenance, or your yard is already level and ready to go — a custom patio might be the perfect fit for you.

FAQs

  • How long does it take to build a new patio?

    Most custom patios can be completed in about one to two weeks, depending on the size, design, and materials you choose. We take the time to prep the site properly and lay each stone or paver with precision — so your patio not only looks great, but lasts for years to come. 

  • How early should I start planning my patio project?

    We recommend reaching out 2–3 months before you want to use your patio. That gives us time to discuss your design ideas, finalize materials, and get everything ready for a smooth build. For spring or summer patios, that means starting the conversation in late winter or early spring.

  • Can you build patios year-round?

    Mostly, yes. We work year-round whenever the weather allows. Concrete and paver patios can be installed in cooler months as long as the ground isn’t frozen and temperatures stay above freezing during installation and curing. We’ll always give you an honest timeline based on current conditions.
