Whether you want a flat backyard patio, an elevated patio, or a multi-level outdoor living space, our team brings your vision to life through expert craftsmanship.
Why Choose a Paver Patio?
Durability & Strength
Pavers are built to handle New Jersey’s weather. Unlike concrete, they do not crack as easily because each piece is an individual unit that can flex with the ground. This helps maintain a clean, attractive surface for years.
Endless Design Options
Pavers come in an array of shapes, colors, textures, and patterns. Whether you prefer modern, rustic, or traditional aesthetics, there is a paver style that complements your home.
Easy Maintenance & Repairs
If a paver becomes stained or damaged, it can be replaced individually—meaning you avoid the costly, messy repairs often associated with concrete slabs.
Improved Drainage & Safety
Paver joints allow water to drain naturally. This reduces pooling and slipping, making paver patios an excellent choice for pool areas or outdoor kitchens.
Types of Paver Patios
Grade-Level Paver Patios
A flat backyard is perfect for a traditional grade-level paver patio. This option provides a clean, stable area for seating, grilling, or outdoor dining. With professional-grade preparation and edge restraints, grade-level patios remain sturdy and low-maintenance over the long term.
Raised or Elevated Paver Patios
If your yard has uneven ground, a raised patio can transform unused space into a functional, attractive outdoor area. Raised patios often incorporate built-up base materials, retaining walls, or step transitions—creating beautiful elevated spaces ideal for entertaining or relaxing.
Retaining Walls, Edging & Structural Features
Paver patios can be enhanced—and structurally supported—with a variety of hardscape features:
- Retaining walls for elevation changes, terracing, or built-in seating
- Edging and restraints to keep pavers locked in place and prevent shifting
- Built-in planters or garden borders
- Steps and transitions between patio levels or into the yard
- Fire pits, seating walls, and other outdoor-living elements
These additions not only strengthen the installation but also create a cohesive, finished look.
Outdoor Living With Pavers
Your paver patio can be the foundation of a complete outdoor-living retreat. Popular additions include:
- Outdoor kitchens and grilling stations
- Fire pits or fire tables
- Dining and lounge areas
- Walkways and garden paths
- Pergolas and shade structures
- Built-in seating or retaining-wall seating
Because pavers are highly versatile, they enable seamless transitions between areas of your yard, creating a unified, inviting outdoor space.
How We Build Your Patio
To ensure your patio stands the test of time, we focus on:
Proper Excavation & Base Preparation
A stable patio starts with precise digging, base installation, and compaction.
Drainage Planning
Every patio needs controlled water management—especially raised patios or patios on slopes.
Correct Edging & Restraints
This prevents lateral movement and keeps pavers locked in place.
Material Guidance
We help you choose the right pavers, patterns, and colors to match your home and landscape.
Expert Craftsmanship
Our crew brings years of experience building paver patios across New Jersey. Every detail is handled with care to ensure a long-lasting result.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you install concrete or asphalt patios?
No. DeFeo’s Landscaping specializes exclusively in paver patios. We do not offer concrete or asphalt installations. By focusing solely on pavers, we deliver higher-quality craftsmanship, greater long-term durability, and greater design flexibility for our clients.
Can you build a paver patio on a slope?
Yes. We frequently build paver patios on sloped or uneven yards. Depending on the grade, we may incorporate retaining walls, terracing, or a raised patio to create a stable, attractive outdoor space that complements your property’s natural contours.
What types of pavers can I choose from?
We offer a wide selection of pavers, including shapes, colors, textures, and styles such as brick, stone-look, and modern rectangular designs. During your consultation, we’ll help you choose materials that complement your home and meet your needs, whether you want a classic look or a more contemporary design.
How long does it take to install a paver patio?
Project timelines vary depending on size, complexity, site conditions, and whether retaining walls or multiple levels are involved. Most standard patios are completed within several days, while more complex outdoor living projects may take longer. We’ll provide a clear estimate once we see your property.
Do paver patios require a lot of maintenance?
Paver patios are low-maintenance compared to many other surfaces. Occasional sweeping, rinsing, and adding polymeric sand to joints as needed is usually all that’s required. If a paver becomes stained or damaged, it can be replaced individually—something concrete slabs can’t offer.
Recent Paver Installation Reviews
“I typically don’t write reviews… but felt it necessary to highlight DeFeo’s quality work and professionalism. We first worked with them in 2017 on a 20×40 curved backyard patio with seating walls. Tough project due to shade and constant moisture, but after 8 years nothing has moved — which says it all.
We hired them again in 2025 to replace our front walkway and had the same amazing experience. The crew dug the base to full depth, didn’t skimp on stone, and handled all cuts and leveling with precision. They paid attention to layout and symmetry, started on time, finished on time, and completely cleaned up.
It’s a lot of money for any homeowner, but their pricing is fair and the value is exceptional. We’ve dealt with bad contractors before… DeFeo is the opposite. Thank you to the team — we’ll continue recommending you to everyone. To the team at DeFeo, thank you very much for being good people.”
“In my experience with landscaping companies, DeFeo’s stood out for their skill and attention to detail. Their care for the customer is evident in the beauty of the finished product. I would always choose DeFeo’s because I want the job done right the first time and built to last.”
“We hired DeFeo’s Landscaping for a large paver patio. Mike came by multiple times to explain everything, and we were very happy with the design and price. His crew came out a few weeks later and completed the job in just over a week. David ran the crew, and those guys really hustled—they were professional, courteous, and delivered exactly what we were looking for. Great company.”
