How long does it take to build a patio?

• <div><p>The average patio takes anywhere from <b>30 to 50 hours</b> to build, including leveling the ground and paving the patio. If you’re doing the work yourself, you might want to plan on spending significantly more time, especially if you don’t have all the equipment or experience. After completing your patio build, consider <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-can-i-hire-prepare-my-patio-spring.htm">hiring a pro to prepare the patio for spring</a>.</p></div>

Q: Can I pour concrete patios or steps myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for small jobs, but professionals ensure durability, proper grading, and compliance with safety codes.</p></div>

Q: Do gazebos need a slab of concrete?

• <div><p>Most gazebos need a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-slab-cost.htm">concrete slab</a> for a secure, long-lasting, and durable gazebo. Whether or not your gazebo needs a slab of concrete depends on the type of gazebo you&rsquo;re building. Some gazebos have a built-in base or use other base materials, including wooden decks, paver slabs, or concrete footings.</p></div>

Q: What project can I do at the same time as repairing concrete steps?

• <div><p>You may want to hire a concrete floor contractor to check out your home&rsquo;s concrete surfaces or inspect your home&rsquo;s foundation for minor damages they can fix while on site. They may be able to fix cracks in your driveway or garage floor the same day they fix your concrete steps, as well. General concrete repair experts often won&rsquo;t be able to handle larger jobs, like leveling a sunken foundation , so you&rsquo;ll need to hire a structural engineer for bigger projects.</p></div>

Q: Should a deck be replaced with a patio?

• <div><p>If it&rsquo;s time to remove your deck, there are several advantages to replacing it with a patio. For example, you&rsquo;ll pay much less to build a patio than a new deck, especially if the framework is compromised. A patio also needs less maintenance and will last longer. However, replacing your patio with a deck may not be an option if your terrain is on a slope.</p></div>

My patio project was perfect. Not only did Bryce consistently show up on time, but he finished the project early. Bryce was extremely professional and friendly while offering great advice with colors and layout to make the perfect patio for our house. I highly recommend up North Hardscapes.

The work was done very professionally. The workers were very polite and let me know what they were doing and if there was anything I could do that would help them out like turning on the outside water for them. They had to bring the patio door in through the house because of a new deck being put...

The serviceman was right on time. He was very business-like and had a professional manner. All work was done very well. He suggested a low cost security upgrade to sliding glass patio doors. I would definitely use Suncoast Security again.

Paul was very professional to deal with; the only grade less than A that I gave was under punctuality and there is a reason for this. Since Paul is out on the job site with the crew he is not sitting in an office waiting for the phone to ring. Neither does he have an office staff. Therefore,...

It didn't go well at all. After weeks of waiting, they painted the deck a hideous orange color. The later repainted it a color of my choosing, but the paint was so thick and orange that I couldn't go back to the natural look I wanted. I selected a tan color with a white rail, but the orange...
