Why a real patio

The builder slab is never big enough.

Most East Valley homes come with a narrow slab under the back cover and not much else. A new or extended patio gives you room for a full table, a grill and a path out to the yard, on a surface that stays level.

In Chandler the patio is also where you escape the summer heat in the evening. Planning it around shade, the path of the afternoon sun and where the monsoon runoff goes makes it a place you use, not just a slab you walk past.

What every patio job covers
Patio types

Patios we build most in Chandler.

These are six of the most common patio requests we get from homeowners in Chandler, Gilbert and Tempe. Most yards end up combining two of them.

A covered slab with a paver extension beyond the roofline is a typical example. The part under the cover stays shaded, and the open part gets a fire pit or a table for cooler months.

01

Interlocking pavers off the back door, finished with a decorative rock border.

02

A fresh concrete slab under the back porch, poured to meet the house cleanly.

03

Light natural stone that pairs well with a pool or a turf lawn.

04

Patio extensions

More square footage added onto the slab the builder poured.

05

A ring of seating around a fire feature, set into the patio.

06

Room and a solid base for a grill island and counter space.

Not sure how big to go?

Set out your chairs and table where you want them. We will measure around them and size the patio to fit.

Sizing it right

We measure around your furniture.

A patio that looked big on paper can feel cramped once the table is on it. We measure the space with your layout in mind, check the slope and the door heights, and give you a written patio quote that matches.

We also note where the afternoon sun lands, where the roof drains and whether the existing slab is sound enough to tie into. Those are the things that decide how the new patio gets built.

The build

Five steps from staked out to swept.

The steps are the same for pavers, stone or concrete. What changes is what goes on top of the base.

For a paver or travertine patio the crew compacts a base and screeds sand. For poured concrete they set forms and pour. Either way, patio installation in Chandler starts with the grade, because clay soil that holds water will move whatever sits on it.

01

Plan and price

Layout staked, measured and quoted.

02

Clear the area

Grass, rock or old slab removed.

03

Grade and base

Fall set, base compacted or forms placed.

04

Surface

05

Edges and cleanup

Borders finished, yard cleaned, walkthrough.

Make it a room

A patio gets used more with these.

Shade and a place to gather are what get people outside in Chandler. A pergola, a fire pit or a kitchen island turns a slab into somewhere you spend the evening.

Landscape lighting along the patio edge and the path out to it makes the space usable after dark. In an Arizona summer, that is when most time outside actually happens.

Pricing

What goes into a patio quote.

We price each patio from what we see at the site visit, not from a flat rate. These four things drive the number most.

Surface choice matters, but so does what is already there. Tying into an existing covered slab, removing old cool deck or working around pergola posts all change the scope of the job.

Size

Total square footage is the biggest single factor.

Surface material

Concrete, concrete pavers and travertine each cost differently to buy and to lay.

Tie in and demo

Removing an old slab or matching door heights adds work.

Add ons

Seat walls, steps, a fire pit or a kitchen base are priced as separate items.

It all goes on one written quote you can compare.

Questions

Patio questions we hear a lot.

Have something else in mind? Ask us on the free site visit. We would rather answer it in your backyard than guess at it here.

Most patio questions around Chandler come down to size, surface and drainage. Here are the ones we get asked before almost every patio job.

Yes. We can add onto a builder slab with concrete, or run pavers or travertine out from its edge. Where the old and new surfaces meet, we plan the joint so it looks intended.

Concrete is usually the lower cost and smoother surface. Pavers cost more but handle ground movement better and can be repaired one piece at a time.

Big enough that chairs can slide back from the table without dropping off the edge. Measure around the furniture you plan to use, add walking room, and we will check it on site.

It can, which is why we set a slight fall away from the house and look at where the water goes next. A patio should never send runoff toward the foundation.

Yes. We work around the posts and cut the surface tight to each one, so there is no gap or loose fill left at the base.

Yes, and it is easier if you tell us up front. We can leave the space for it so the patio does not have to be cut up later.

Where we work

Patio builds across Chandler and the East Valley.

We are Chandler based, with patio jobs from Tempe and Ahwatukee down to Queen Creek and San Tan Valley. Gilbert and Mesa are regular stops too.

If you live in an HOA community, bring your design guidelines to the site visit. We will plan the patio materials and colors to fit what your association allows.

Surfaces

Four ways to surface a patio.

Each surface looks, feels and ages a little differently. We lay out the tradeoffs on site so you can choose.

In the Arizona sun, color matters as much as material. Lighter pavers and travertine stay easier on bare feet, while darker concrete and pavers hide dirt better on a patio that sees heavy use.

/01

The most color and pattern choices, and simple to repair.

/02

Light natural stone that feels good underfoot around a pool.

/03

A smooth slab, left plain, colored or stained.

/04

Flagstone

Irregular natural stone for a looser, desert look.
