The difference between a paver patio that lasts 30 years and one that heaves in 3 is entirely underground. Our ICPI-certified crews excavate to undisturbed soil, build a compacted road-base foundation in lifts, and use polymeric sand and edge restraints so the surface stays locked and flat through every freeze-thaw cycle.
We install Belgard, Pavestone, and natural flagstone in patterns from clean modern planks to tumbled cobble. Every quote includes base depth and compaction specs in writing — ask any other bidder for the same and compare.

Common Questions About Paver Patios & Walkways
How much does a paver patio cost in Fort Collins?
GreenPath paver patios start at $22 per square foot installed, so a typical 300–400 square foot patio runs about $6,600–$8,800 including excavation, compacted road base, polymeric sand, and edge restraints. Every quote lists the base depth and compaction specs in writing.
Will pavers heave or shift in Colorado winters?
Not if the base is built right — the difference between a 30-year patio and a 3-year one is entirely underground. Our ICPI-certified crews excavate to undisturbed soil and compact road base in lifts, which is why our hardscape carries a 25-year workmanship warranty through every freeze-thaw cycle.
Are pavers better than a concrete patio?
For Colorado, usually yes. Poured concrete cracks with freeze-thaw and repairs show forever; pavers flex with the ground, and a damaged unit can be lifted and replaced invisibly. Pavers cost more up front but rarely need the mud-jacking and replacement concrete eventually demands.
