Paver Patio Installation and Design Services in St. Louis, MO
Schwartz Brothers Landscape Solutions installs the highest quality paver patios and walkways in St. Louis, and all come with a 6-year guarantee against sinking or becoming unlevel. We are the #1 paver patio installation contractor in St. Louis. Our backyard patios all rest on a minimum of 6 inches of compacted gravel and have a maximum of ¼ inch of leveling sand. The number one reason for uneven paver patios is improper leveling pad installation. The most glaring mistake we see is the overuse of sand.
Almost every repair we get called to look at by other installers has a base of sand at least an inch thick. Sand cannot be compacted and should only be used to level out the minute fluctuations of the solid compacted base beneath it.

A paver patio is just one of many types of landscaping projects we offer and is often referred to as a “hardscape.” Other types of hardscapes are walkways, driveways, retaining walls, water gardens, or outdoor kitchens. Hardscapes can either be man-made or natural materials.

Paver Patio Installation Cost
While pavers do cost more than concrete, the upfront cost can easily be justified when you have the peace of mind of knowing they can be fixed, changed, or reconfigured at any time. As you spend more and more time in your new outdoor living space, the odds of adding and changing the layout greatly increase over the years. These are things you simply cannot accomplish using traditional concrete patios. Often when a paver patio is installed, an accompanying retaining wall is also built.

Why You May Want to Elect for Pavers Over a Concrete Poured Patio
• Water drains better than solid concrete patios and prevents runoff into the lawn, which is always a problem with concrete pours.
• Permeable in installation allows the drainage to go straight thru the actual paver, as opposed to channeled to the end of the concrete patio. When water is channeled to the end on concrete, it dumps onto the lawn creating the wet spot that everyone has stepped into after heavy rain.
• Easily be repaired or reconfigured should the need arise.
• They don’t crack and are extremely durable
• Available in all shapes and color schemes, some mimicking the old-world textures, while others can provide a modern flair! They can incorporate more boring design elements into their layout. These design elements won’t fade like stamped concrete over time. Also, when stamped concrete cracks, it is very noticeable and not easily fixed.
• Blends seamlessly to surrounding retaining walls and landscape lighting fixtures. They also allow for easy installation of electric lines, gas lines, and water lines at the time of installation or after the project is complete. You can always add more to a paver design down the road, while the same cannot be easily done with traditional poured concrete. Pavers are the best choice if you plan to incorporate an outdoor kitchen, fireplace or pit, or pizza oven. All these items are usually able to be matched to the various paver pallets.
• Can be reinforced to support the weight of large vehicles and if damaged, can be easily fixed. They are a great choice for a driveway. They allow you to be able to fix or modify the hardscape more readily than a fixed traditional concrete pour
