Patio & Walkway Planning Checklist

1. Define Your Vision

Consider how you’ll use your space; outdoor dining, lounging, walkways to gardens, or curb appeal upgrades.

2. Choose Durable Materials

Options include pavers, stamped concrete, natural stone, or brick. Each offers different aesthetics and maintenance needs.

3. Incorporate Design Features

Add fire pits, seating walls, lighting, or garden borders to maximize function and beauty.

4. Plan for Drainage & Durability

Professional grading and proper installation prevent pooling water, shifting, and cracks.

5. Think About Seasonal Maintenance

Sealing and joint sanding protect your hardscapes from Pennsylvania’s freeze-thaw cycles.
