Patio Materials for Middle Tennessee: Pavers, Stone, Concrete and More

A side-by-side look at the most popular patio materials and how each handles Tennessee weather, wear and style.

Concrete pavers

Pavers offer the widest range of colors and styles, strong performance and easy repair. They are a good all-around choice for patios, walks and driveways.

Natural flagstone and limestone

Natural stone brings unmatched character. Flagstone suits paths and informal patios. Cut limestone gives crisp, formal surfaces. Both last for generations, and both cost more than manufactured options.

Stamped and poured concrete

Concrete is cost-effective and seamless. Stamping and color let it resemble stone or brick. Cracks are possible, and we plan joints and bases to manage them.

Travertine and porcelain

Travertine is cool underfoot and elegant, ideal for pool decks. Porcelain pavers are thin, dense and low-maintenance, popular for modern designs.

Brick

Brick is classic and long-lasting, especially beside brick homes. It works in many patterns and ages gracefully.

Gravel and crushed stone

Gravel is permeable and friendly to a budget. It suits paths, courtyards and informal seating areas with proper edging.

Our advice in one sentence

Pick the material that suits the use, the house and your upkeep tolerance, and invest in the base underneath.
