Design-Build in NH & MA | Our Stone Patio Creations Will Give You More Useful Space, While Adding Beauty And Functionality!

Brick

A clay brick patio is a steady, timeless addition to any home or business and is a cost-effective choice when compared to other materials. Ease of installation and maintenance is yet another advantage. Brick allows for a variety of design possibilities and gives an “earthy” quality that is perfect for blending in almost anywhere. Brick is especially nice for bringing out the green of your back yard and its toughness and durability make it a tried and true patio choice.

Granite

A granite patio will certainly make a hardy statement. This stone has been quarried by countless civilizations down through the ages for its strength, beauty and glistening mineral effects. Prized for its heavy mass, granite is highly sought after for its ease of maintenance and durability – and it is certainly in no small supply here in the Granite State. Colors like pink, white, mauve, and black – and a variety of finishes; natural, rough, polished or honed, allow for intricate patterns and offer ample possibilities. Granite is a wise choice if you need water resistance, given its rough exterior. Granite can be costlier but its beauty, strength and lasting qualities are well worth the investment.

Fieldstone

Fieldstone is naturally found in the landscape of your region, thus lending instant authenticity to any project. Individual stones come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors and offer an alternative to the uniformity of brick, concrete or pavers and the effects can be dazzling. Commonly used as material for chimneys and retaining walls, fieldstones are now being used to add to a home’s beauty. Fieldstone gives an earthen quality that is perfect for blending in almost anywhere, and its toughness, durability and low maintenance makes for a great patio.

Flagstone

Flagstone is harvested from rock quarries found in layers of sedimentary, stratified rock. These flat stones are cut into slabs of similar color, making them perfect for projects requiring a more level or harmonious surface. Patios, sidewalks and even interior flooring like garages and indoor mudrooms are commonly made from flagstone as their slab formation makes them great for linear projects. A combination of both fieldstone and flagstone is a great way to go.

Bluestone

A bluestone patio’s main advantage is the magical effect it creates wherever it is laid as it is among the more beautiful and striking of all the building stones. Versatile and natural, its color is generally determined by the depth wherein it is quarried. The deeper quarried rocks are commonly the most unique. Bluestone has many residential applications and is a great stone for areas that are frequently wet, like pool patios. Installation is relatively easy and the pavers come in many shapes and sizes. Bluestone is a cost effective and popular choice.
