A patio, also known as a courtyard or forecourt, is usually attached to the residence and used for dining or recreation. Typically paved with concrete or stone slabs, more and more families believe their home is not complete without a patio or an enclosure. When you’re ready to start seriously discussing your patio options, call Innovation Design And Construction Inc. for the most affordable and dependable patio services in the state.

Patio Location

One of the first decisions to make about your patio is where you want to place it. Do you want your patio to be the first thing guests see? Or would you prefer the patio be located behind the house for privacy? The backyard, courtyard, front yard, and side yard are the most popular choices for a new patio.

Patio Hardscaping

The next decision has to do with hardscaping. Hardscaping is a subset of landscaping, and refers to any environment that is built or paved, including streets, sidewalks, structures, walls, pools, and fountains. The type of material you choose for your patio’s hardscape will determine the texture and aesthetic value. Common patio hardscaping elements include:

• Brick
• Concrete
• Granite
• Gravel
• Stone
• Tile
