A good patio is the difference between a yard you visit and a yard you actually live in. Done right, it becomes the room the whole family spends the most time in from May through October — grilling, entertaining, watching kids in the pool, or reading on a Saturday morning. Done wrong, it settles unevenly, holds standing water after every storm, and needs to be rebuilt in five years. For 18+ years, Great Valley Landscape & Pool has been designing and building patios, walkways, and pool decks across Frazer, Chester County, and the Main Line. We build the boring stuff — grading, base, drainage, edge restraint — the way it should be built, because that is what makes the pretty stuff last. ## What we build **Paver patios.** Concrete pavers in traditional or contemporary formats, from tumbled cobble to large-format porcelain-look pavers. Repairable, replaceable, and available in finishes to match any Main Line home. **Natural stone patios.** Bluestone, travertine, and limestone laid dry or mortared, edged with stone or paver bands. The premium choice around pools and formal entertaining spaces. **Walkways.** Front walks, side walks, garden paths — designed as part of the whole property, not tacked on. Curves, transitions, and step details that feel intentional. **Pool decks.** Deck surfaces designed and built as part of the pool. Cool underfoot, slip-resistant, and finished with coping that flows into the deck material — not a mismatched afterthought. **Outdoor kitchens and fire features.** Grill surrounds, pizza ovens, fire pits, and fireplaces integrated into the patio layout, not floating in the middle of it. ## Why our patios last - **Proper base depth.** 8–12 inches of compacted stone under the surface, more for driveways or heavy loads. - **Real drainage.** Pitch, French drains where needed, and drainage tied to the storm-water plan of the property. - **Polymeric jointing.** Sand that stays put through storms and freeze cycles. - **Steel edge restraint.** Not the plastic strips that shift after two winters. - **Installed by our masons.** The same people who build our [retaining walls](/services/retaining-walls/) and [stone structures](/services/stone-masonry/) — not a subcontracted crew. ## Combining with other work Most patios we build are one piece of a larger backyard project. A new patio pairs naturally with a [pavilion or pergola](/services/pavilions/) for shade, [landscape lighting](/services/landscape-lighting/) for evening use, and finished [planting](/services/landscape-design/) that softens the edges. When the patio is part of a pool project, we build [inground pools](/services/inground-pools/) and [remodeled pools](/services/pool-remodeling/) with the deck integrated from day one. ## Serving your neighborhood We build patios and walkways across Frazer, Malvern, Chester Springs, Downingtown, West Chester, Wayne, Bryn Mawr, Villanova, Gladwyne, Bala Cynwyd, Media, Chadds Ford, Newtown Square, and the surrounding Main Line and Chester County neighborhoods.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a properly built paver patio last in Pennsylvania?

A patio built on a properly compacted base with the right joint sand and edge restraint should last 25 years or more in Chester County conditions. The failure mode on most patios is a rushed base, not the pavers themselves.

Pavers, natural stone, or poured concrete — which is right for my yard?

Pavers are the workhorse — durable, replaceable individually, and available in many finishes. Natural stone (bluestone, travertine, limestone) is the premium choice around pools and formal patios. Poured concrete is the least expensive but the least forgiving of Pennsylvania freeze-thaw. We'll help you pick based on your yard, your house, and your budget.

Can you match my patio to an existing pool or driveway?

Yes. Most of our patio projects are additions or extensions to existing hardscape. We source materials to match tone, finish, and format so the finished project reads as one design.

Do you handle grading and drainage as part of a patio job?

Always. Because our excavation crew is in-house, we grade the site, install drainage, and set the base before a single paver is placed. That is what makes a patio last.
