Concrete or brick paver installation costs $8 to $25 per square foot. You'll get individually placed bricks that can add variety and color. Materials and labor are both higher than a simple concrete slab but comparable to an intricate stamped and stained design. Make sure you discuss specifics with your contractor before the project begins so you can budget accordingly.
A wooden deck installation costs $4,100 to $11,500 on average for both labor and materials. It's significantly more expensive than concrete because materials cost more and it requires more time and labor to build, so be sure to factor in the additional time when planning your project—especially if trying to complete the build before the warmer months pass.
From start to finish, it will take two to four days on average to build a patio. However, the timeline ultimately depends on several factors, including your project’s complexity, the materials you choose and their availability, the season/climate, your land, and other project-specific requirements.
A well-maintained concrete patio can last 30 to 50 years. And often longer with something as simple as a resurfacing. Resurfacing concrete costs $4 per square foot on average. Like most other structures, the amount of care and maintenance you put into your patio will increase its longevity and help you enjoy it for years to come.
Extending your existing patio costs the same as any new patio, or $6 to $16 per square foot on average. For example, if you want to add 50 square feet to your existing patio, expect to pay somewhere between $300 to $800 (at minimum) for that extension. If you add any higher-end or speciality features, your costs will exceed this range.
