You can use stone creatively to add style, depth, and functionality. You can create customized looks for your patio area according to its surrounding spaces & surfaces -­ mix various stone paver types if necessary.

Still skeptical at this point over a bunch of patio pavers? Fret not; Bay Country Contractors are no novices when it comes to sprucing up your residential hardscape. Here are just a few ideas from a wide range of ways you can utilize pavers for a patio upgrade!

1) Outdoor Entertainment Area

Create an outdoor entertainment area by using stone pavers to create a large patio space with comfortable seating and a coffee table – perfect for hosting parties or relaxing with friends outdoors!

2) Garden Borders

Use stone paver walls as garden borders – this will add extra interest AND help define the boundaries of your garden neatly!

3) Mixing and Matching

To make an interesting path throughout your garden, cleverly alternate between stone pavers and mulch/crushed gravel -­ creating depth & uniqueness; plus allowing guests easy access to getting around!

4) Pool Corners

Surround your pool with stone pavers in fun, bright colors for a summery feel that will make you want to dive right in! Consider adding a paving path from your pool area to outdoor seating arrangements.

5) Paver Stones as Stepping Stones

For a rustic look that is both practical and visually appealing, use stone pavers of varying sizes as stepping stones throughout your garden – this is perfect for those difficult-to-mow areas!

6) Circular Patio Designs

If you have sufficient space, consider adding a stone paver patio with a central fire pit – stone pavers are the perfect way to achieve a clean, classic look. Plus, this design is bound to be a conversation starter at your next gathering!

7) Furniture Foundation

Setting up furniture on the grass results in unwanted small holes on the lawn. Instead, use pavers and gravel to create a rock-solid foundation for your outdoor seating area. This method also allows for easy rearranging – no more heavy lifting!

8) Patterned Patio

Use stone pavers to create a patterned patio design. You can go for a classic look with a simple herringbone or basket weave pattern or get creative with a more complex design. Patterned stone pavers are a great way to add visual interest to your patio space.
