The uses of brick paver patios are not as popular as they once were but they can still add beauty to any home. Brick pavers can be used whether they are old or new. They can be made into any shape or size imaginable. We like to use brick pavers in correlation with concrete pavers. Making a brick paver rug or quilt gives you a nice focal point in your patio. A brick paver entrance can enhance a boring concrete driveway.

Choosing a Brick Patio Design

When designing a brick patio, thought should be given to the size, shape, elevation, color, sun exposure, lawn transition, and landscaping. Eastman Hardscapes' design professionals work with all homeowners to design your ideal patio. Many conditions should be considered to determine the size of your brick patio.

Some Brick Patio Ideas

Over the years we have come up with and used quite a few different brick patio ideas. The most popular idea is to use a brick paver as a border or accent border in a concrete paver patio. This could be done with bricks that may have been left over when your house was built.

You could build a patio using bricks that you have collected throughout the years, or there is a wide array of new ones available for use. One brick patio idea is to incorporate new or old bricks into columns, seat walls, benches, & fire pits. New or old, bricks are excellent material to use in a patio.
