What adds to the price
- Patterns & borders: herringbone, banding and contrasting borders add labor and material.

- Site prep: grading, drainage and removing an old slab or deck all factor in.
- Access: tight backyard access can slow material handling and add labor.
Is a paver patio worth it?
In Southwest Florida, an outdoor living space is used nearly year-round, so a patio effectively adds livable square footage to your home. Pavers keep it low-maintenance — a rinse and periodic re-seal — with no cracking or annual resurfacing. It's one of the more enjoyable upgrades you can make, and it holds resale value.
