Spring is now in full swing! Spring has always been universally recognized as a symbol of new beginnings – and if you don’t get the hint yet, it also is the perfect time to begin working on outdoor improvements and landscaping, such as building a patio!
An important part of any outdoor landscape is the patio. Very often, it is the first outdoor space built by homeowners for several practical reasons. It is usually the foundation where outdoor amenities such as barbecue grills, outdoor kitchen islands, fire pits, and additional seating are placed. Patios can also be used for a variety of purposes including outdoor dining and lounging.
Want a patio but don’t know where to begin? Greenscape STL can help you create an outdoor space that enhances your lifestyle and adds value to your home.
Things to Consider When Building Your Patio
During the early stages of the design and build process, our team will meet with our clients to consider three primary things.
First, how many people (and perhaps, even furry friends) will regularly use the patio? Will you consider extending the patio in the future? Information on these will help us determine the ideal size for your patio.
Second, what is the purpose of the patio? Do you need one as an outdoor dining area? Ever thought about building a fire pit for your summer evenings? Have you always envisioned an outdoor lounging set to relax? This will help us determine the best layout and location for your patio, and what essential elements should be added to your outdoor space. For instance, if you enjoy cooking and eating outdoors, consider incorporating a barbecue grill with an outdoor kitchen island so you can prepare, cook, and serve your meals outdoors. If you are keen on entertaining guests, you can never go wrong with a good fire pit and some seating walls around it. You will never again have to move the party inside when evenings go cold!
Third, which materials best suit your new paver patio? The more we understand the intended functions of the patio, the better we can help you choose which materials will be best suited for the space. Our Grand DISCOVER PAVERS® are a great choice for your outdoor kitchen, as their smooth face and clean lines make them easy to clean and maintain. If you are set on building a fire pit or a fireplace, the weathered aesthetic of our Tumbled Keystone Venetian can add a rustic charm to your outdoor space. If you prefer a more contemporary style, we also have our Non-Tumbled Keystone Venetian patio paver for that smoother and sleeker look. Our suppliers at Greenscape STL offer tons of patio paver styles and colors for you to choose from. Concrete pavers are also available.
