## Frequently asked questions
### How much does a paver patio cost?
Mid-grade concrete pavers: $24–$36 per square foot installed. Premium clay pavers or natural stone: $36–$58 per square foot. A typical 400 sqft backyard patio with proper base prep lands at $11,000–$24,000. Outdoor kitchens add $14,000–$45,000 depending on appliance package.

### How long does the project take?
Patios typically 1–2 weeks of active work. Retaining walls 1–3 weeks depending on engineering and access. Full backyard transformations with patio + outdoor kitchen + fire feature run 4–8 weeks. We provide written week-by-week schedules at contract signing.

### Will it crack through Virginia winters?
Properly installed pavers don’t crack — they’re individual units that flex with frost heave and settle back into place. Concrete slabs crack because they’re rigid. That’s the structural advantage of pavers in freeze-thaw climates. Our 20-year-old installs look the same today as install day.

### What about weeds in the joints?
We use polymeric jointing sand that hardens between pavers, locks them together, and resists weed germination. Properly installed joints stay clean for 10+ years before any maintenance. We don’t use bagged play sand — that’s why your neighbor’s patio has weeds.

### Do you handle permits?
Yes. We pull permits for retaining walls over 4 feet, walls supporting other structures, and any work in stormwater easements. Patio work usually doesn’t require permits in Fairfax/Loudoun/Arlington Counties, but we verify on every job. Permit costs passed through at city/county fee.
