Q: Can I DIY patio installation?

• <div><p>While patio installation requires some heavy equipment to excavate the area and compact the soil, you can learn <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-questions-ask-building-diy-patio.htm">how to do a DIY patio installation</a> and potentially save money versus hiring a pro to do the work. You should be familiar with taking measurements and doing calculations to determine the right amount of materials, and you&rsquo;ll need to be comfortable working with the necessary equipment.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to build a patio with a fire pit?

• <div><p>To build a patio with a built-in fire pit, expect to pay an average of <b>$6,750</b>. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-install-patio.htm">cost to build a patio</a> alone is an average of <b>$3,500</b>. Although the cost of construction is higher, the patio and fire pit combination offers a better resale value than a patio alone or a patio with a fire pit add-on.</p></div>

Q: Does patio installation require a permit?

• <div><p>In many cases, you will need a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-i-really-need-building-permit.htm">building permit</a> for your patio, but it depends on the type of patio. Generally speaking, any improvements to your land considered &ldquo;permanent&rdquo; will require a permit. Since a concrete patio is a permanent foundation, you will need a permit. On the other hand, a paver patio or flagstone patio usually sits over gravel and sand, are considered &ldquo;temporary&rdquo; improvements, and rarely require permits. To be safe, you should always ask your building department or your patio company if a permit will be necessary.</p></div>

Q: Can I do concrete work myself?

• <div><p>For handy homeowners, concrete projects are DIYable, and DIYing is a good way to save on the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-slab-cost.htm">cost of a concrete slab</a>, walkway, or other concrete work. If you&rsquo;re completing a larger project or one that&rsquo;s subject to building codes, you should always hire a professional to ensure the job is done safely and correctly. </p></div>

Q: How far apart do you put stepping stones?

• <div><p>Stepping stones should match an average human stride, so the general rule is to place them about 24 inches between stones. However, many designs put stones closer together. If you choose to plant in between them, leave at least 6 to 8 inches between stones to give plants room to grow.</p></div>

I recently hired HHS Masonry& Restoration to install patio pavers in my backyard, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From the initial consultation to the final installation, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in bringing my vision to life.
