If you have ever looked at an outdoor space and thought it looked so well planned but had no idea why, it might have been the way paving contractors organize outdoor features with strategic paving stones. Arlington and Newton, MA, area outdoor living spaces can be defined with pavers that visually separate the intended use in your landscape.
Patios
A well-planned patio can become the extra living space that you want but don’t have in your home. When you can open the doors to a patio space, it can be your favorite spot for morning coffee and the place you love to end a busy day.
The most common paving stones for patios are paving stones that come in a wide array of colors, textures, and shapes to give you any number of design options for a unique patio. Adding in traditional bricks, bluestone, granite, travertine, and porcelain tiles can mean that no two patios will look the same.
When you work with a skilled paving contractor, they can help you select the stones that will complement your home and landscape while giving you the living space you want. You can choose to use a single stone type for the base of the patio while selecting a different type of stone to form a square within the patio for a dining area. Any stone can be used as contrasting banding to bring more interest and color to your patio space with endless laying patterns and designs limited only by your imagination.
Outdoor Kitchens
Cooking somehow can feel quite different when done outdoors and this is what an outdoor kitchen is for—cooking fun. From grilling burgers and hotdogs to family pizza night in the pizza oven, an outdoor kitchen can be a great way to spend time together with those you love.
A paving stone specialist can set your outdoor kitchen apart from other living spaces with stones that complement any existing stone flooring. You can use all the same stone choices for the kitchen space with the structure of the kitchen echoing the stone colors and textures but the actual dining area can boast a double pattern of edging to designate a square, rectangle or circular eating space.
You can customize the kitchen with multiple stones and use similar or different stones for a bar area where you can whip up yummy drinks. An outdoor kitchen can be as simple as a perfect grilling station with ample counter space to hold serving plates and condiments or as elaborate as a full gourmet cooking space.
Creating a multi-season retreat can be easy with the skills of a paving contractor who has the design team that can lead you through the process as you choose from beautiful materials and custom features. From a wet bar to an ice machine to specialized cabinetry, you can create a gorgeous outdoor living space that has all of the features that you want.
