Patios questions, answered by experts
It is essential to have a stable and well-prepared foundation under stone steps. Often, a layer of gravel or crushed stone is placed as a base material. This provides a firm and level surface for the stone steps to rest upon. Additionally, landscape fabric is often laid down before adding the base material to prevent weed growth and help stabilize the foundation. Creating a solid base ensures the stone steps have adequate support, reduces the risk of settling, and enhances the overall durability and longevity of the steps.
Usually 2-3 days, plus additional curing time before full use.
Porcelain pavers come at a premium. If you want to save some cash, choose concrete pavers. Concrete pavers can cost as little as $0.50 per square foot.
You may want to hire a concrete floor contractor to check out your home’s concrete surfaces or inspect your home’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’t be able to handle larger jobs, like leveling a sunken foundation , so you’ll need to hire a structural engineer for bigger projects.
When comparing pavers versus a concrete patio, paver patios tend to be more costly than their concrete counterparts. However, the total cost depends on the type of materials you use and the size of the patio. If your patio needs repairs, a paver patio will be easier and less costly to fix, even though it’s more expensive upfront. Plus, a paver patio won’t bump up your property taxes, while a concrete patio will.
