Do You Really Need to Maintain Your Paver Patio?

So you’ve spent thousands of dollars on a brand-new paver patio. A contractor has dug up your backyard, laid down paving slabs, and everything looks great. That’s the end of it, right? Not really. You’ll need to maintain your patio over time. Here are some reasons why.

Improve the Appearance of Your Patio

Dirt, debris, and other nasty stuff can all affect the aesthetic appeal of your paver patio over time, especially if pavers have stains or discoloration. That’s why it’s a good idea to clean your patio every few months. Doing so will create a more welcoming space when guests visit your property.

Prevent Weed Growth

The gaps between paving stones provide weeds with the right conditions to grow, which can damage your patio. For example, weed growth can crack your pavers and even cause them to shift, resulting in an uneven surface. That can be a huge safety hazard. But don’t fear! A good weed killer can fix this issue and leave your outdoor space looking fantastic again.

Save Money on Repairs

All paver patios can suffer from wear and tear over the years. However, identifying problems before they get worse will prevent costly repairs. By carrying out regular inspections of your patio, you can increase its lifespan and stop it from deteriorating. For example, you can look at the edges of your patio to see if paving stones are positioned correctly and gently tap them back into place with a mallet or hammer.

Increase Property Value

By maintaining your paver patio, you can add value to your home and make it easier to sell your property if you put it on the market. Pavers free from cracks and discoloration can increase curb appeal and create a positive impression on buyers who visit your home.

Takeaway

You should maintain your patio to improve its appearance, prevent damage, and get more out of your investment. Otherwise, you could decrease your patio’s lifespan and have to spend money on repairs. Remember, high-quality pavers can be easier to clean and care for, so think about this when upgrading your patio in the future.

We are so delighted with our new patio installed by Mountain Strong! Working with Keegan was a pleasure. He had a lot of good suggestions, was willing to sketch out our concepts to help us envision what the final patio would look like, and was very patient as we changed what we wanted multiple times. He and his brother did the installation when they said they would—and they finished right on time. They picked up all the debris and equipment and restored the lawn where it needed new grass. The patio looks great—and we will enjoy it for years to come!

Keegan and his team do amazing work! We were in need of a walkway steps, and some landscaping to make the front of our house complete. Mountain Strong was amazing to work with throughout the entire process and made sure that the end was good and that we were informed and confident throughout the entire process. I will definitely be using them again for future projects!

We hired Mountain Stong to do a display patio at our location. Keegan and Zach were great to work with. They were very communicative and did great work. These guys definitely know what they are doing. They are great customers of ours and I would highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for an outdoor living space.

Keegan and his crew did an amazing job. I got a 6x8 patio at the bottom of my stairs to help with my dog mud situation, and they created a beautiful chevron pattern landing that fits with my deck and house style. Strongly recommend!

As a small business wonder myself, it was great to see Keegan with Mountain Strong Landscaping eager and willing to earn your business! He was flexible with my time frame, had great communication, provided ideas and worked well with his employees to get the job done! Keegan had posted on social media a patio that caught my attention. I screenshot it and looked at it often. As I am not a very good visualizer, it impressed me how this patio work I saw of his seemed to be the perfect fit for my home. It has since came to life, and I couldn’t be happier! It is Winter, so I have yet to enjoy the patio full affect - but I can’t wait! If you are looking for hardscaping - Keegan is your man!
