Paver patio gallery and inspiration

The photos in this paver patio gallery are inspiration images that show popular styles, materials and layouts. They are not photos of specific projects built through our referral service. As our partner contractors complete projects in Fairfax County, we will add real local work here.

Here is how to get the most out of the paver patio gallery when planning your own outdoor space:

• Save your favorites. Screenshot or bookmark photos you like and share them with your contractor during your free estimate. Pictures communicate style faster than words.
• Look at the details. Notice borders, joint width, paver size and color blends. Small details make a big difference in the finished look.
• Think about function. A beautiful fire pit circle may not fit a small yard, while a simple rectangle with a seat wall can feel generous. Your contractor can adapt any idea to your space.
• Match your home. Brick and tumbled pavers suit traditional Fairfax County colonials, while large-format slabs suit modern homes.
• Plan for slopes. Many gallery photos include steps and walls. If your yard slopes, read about retaining wall installation.
