Excellent quality. Have used E&V for two projects, including a large, curvy patio and walkway which still looks great after 3 years.

-Bobby Delconte

E&V Masonry did an awesome job on our pool patio. We wanted to expand what we already had and they blended it in fantastic. Would def hire them again for another job. The clean up after was beyond good. Couldn’t ask for anything more.

Is a paver patio a good investment?

Yes, a paver patio is an excellent investment for any homeowner. Paver patios offer a combination of durability, aesthetic appeal, and added functionality to your outdoor living space, which can significantly increase the value and enjoyment of your home.

Value Enhancement: Installing a paver patio can increase the resale value of your property. Potential homebuyers often view well-designed outdoor spaces as an extension of the indoor living area. A beautifully crafted paver patio makes your property more attractive to prospective buyers, should you decide to sell.

Low Maintenance Costs: Paver patios require minimal maintenance to keep them looking their best. They do not need frequent refinishing or replacement, which can save money over time compared to other types of patios that require more upkeep.

How long does it take to install a paver patio?

The installation time for a paver patio can vary depending on several factors including the size of the patio, the complexity of the design, and site preparation needs. Typically, the process can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks.

Site Preparation: This initial step involves clearing the area, grading the land for proper drainage, and laying a suitable base material. The time spent on site preparation is crucial to ensure longevity and stability of the patio, and can vary based on the current condition of your landscape.

Design and Layout: The complexity of your chosen design can also influence the timeline. Simple designs with standard pavers are quicker to install, whereas intricate patterns with varying colors and shapes may require additional time for precise placement and cuts.

Installation: Once the site is prepared and the design is planned, the actual laying of pavers is relatively swift. Our experienced team of masons work efficiently to ensure high-quality results within the shortest possible time frame.

On average, most paver patio installations are completed within one week. We at E&V Masonry pride ourselves on efficient, thorough work, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily routine while delivering a beautifully crafted outdoor space.

How long does a paver patio last?

A paver patio is renowned for its longevity and durability. When properly installed and maintained, a paver patio can last anywhere from 25 to 40 years, and sometimes even longer. The lifespan of your patio depends on several key factors:

‍Quality of Materials: The type of pavers used plays a crucial role in the longevity of the patio. High-quality pavers, like those made from robust materials such as concrete or natural stone, are essential for ensuring a long-lasting patio.

‍Professional Installation: Proper installation by experienced professionals like those at E&V Masonry is critical. This includes correct site preparation, adequate base material and compaction, and precise paver alignment and spacing. Our meticulous installation process ensures that the patio will withstand the elements and frequent use over many years.

‍Maintenance: Regular maintenance further extends the life of a paver patio. This includes routine cleaning, re-sanding of joints, and sealing the pavers to protect against moisture, stains, and weathering.

‍Environment: Environmental conditions such as extreme weather, heavy traffic, and ground movement can affect the longevity of a patio. However, pavers are particularly adept at handling such stresses due to their interlocking design, which provides greater flexibility and resistance to cracking.

By choosing E&V Masonry for your paver patio project, you are investing in a long-lasting, beautiful outdoor space that will enhance your home and lifestyle for decades. Contact us today for a free quote on a paver patio.

Are pavers high maintenance?

No, pavers are not high maintenance, making them an ideal choice for patios, especially in regions like Massachusetts that experience heavy winters. Here’s what maintaining a paver patio typically involves:

‍Routine Cleaning: Pavers require basic cleaning, which can usually be managed with just a broom to clear away debris and a hose to wash off any accumulated dirt. For tougher stains, a gentle detergent and water can be used along with a stiff brush. It is also advised to clean your paver patios after every winter.

‍Sealing: To further enhance their durability and appearance, it’s beneficial to apply a sealant to your pavers every 1-2 years. This sealant helps to protect the pavers from salt damage during winter, prevents staining, and can enhance the natural color of the pavers.

‍Resistance to Winter Conditions: Pavers are particularly well-suited to withstand harsh winter conditions. The interlocking design allows for natural expansion and contraction during freeze-thaw cycles, reducing the risk of cracking. Additionally, pavers can tolerate the application of salt for ice melting without much damage, making them a durable option through the seasons.

‍Spot Replacement: Should any paver sustain damage or excessive wear, it can be individually replaced without disturbing the surrounding area. This feature makes pavers a cost-effective and easy-to-maintain choice for patios.

Overall, the maintenance required for pavers is relatively minimal, especially considering their resilience and adaptability to various weather conditions. This makes them a practical and attractive option for enhancing outdoor spaces.
