If you wanted a patio, the only available options used to be poured concrete patios or patios made from expensive bricks or awkward pieces of slate. However, today, there are many different patio materials to choose from.
If you like the look of traditional brick patios, you can find concrete bricks that look like old fashioned red house bricks but are much more reasonably priced. These concrete pavers can be used to create patterns that give patios a very formal, but attractive, design. Herringbone, basket weave, and running bond are the most common brick patio patterns. You can also find gray concrete bricks.
Larger pavers made from concrete are also readily available. These pavers make patio construction a quick and easy task, since one paver is often the size of eight standard bricks. However, these pavers can be prone to cracking and are not quite as sturdy as the smaller concrete pavers. You can buy large pavers in several different colors. Often, homeowners install these pavers in a checkerboard design. However, a solid red, tan, or gray patio is also attractive.
Interlocking patio pavers are a newer type of patio material. These pavers are available in a range of neutral colors. Their unique interlocking design creates a strong patio that is less prone to shifting and heaving than patios made with traditional pavers.
Before installing a patio, you may want to check with your local planning commission to be sure you do not need special permission. Be sure to consider your final patio location carefully. A patio that is close to the kitchen is ideal, since you will be able to have easy access to cold drinks and food. However, some people prefer to create a secluded patio out in the garden area so that they can relax in the tranquil setting.
Once you decide on a location, you will need to level the area. Then, you will need to spread several inches of crushed stone as a foundation. On top of this, you will need to spread several inches of sand. Then, you will need to lay the pavers, using mortar or sand between them.
Before you use your new patio, be sure you protect it properly. Paver sealing fluid will keep too much moisture from seeping into the pavers and will help prevent them from cracking. Sealers also will help your patio repel stains.
With proper installation and maintenance, you will be able to enjoy your new patio for years to come.
