Concrete & Paver Patios in Los Angeles, CA

Patios · Los Angeles, CA

The Floor of the Outdoor Room

A patio contractor in Los Angeles builds the floor of the most-used room in the house, the one with no roof. Around Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena and across the Los Angeles area, a backyard gets used twelve months a year, and the surface underfoot decides whether it feels finished or temporary. We build concrete patios and interlocking paver patios, new and as replacements for cracked old slabs, and we build them on compacted base so they stay flat on LA clay.

Most of our patios are the first move in a bigger outdoor plan: the floor under a pergola, the field around a fire pit, the surface a kitchen island stands on. Because the same masons build the seat walls, steps and planters, the patio and everything on it come from one plan and one quote. Our outdoor living builds show how far a yard can travel from bare dirt.

What We Handle

  • Broom, trowel and colored concrete patios
  • Slabs and footings for covered patios and pergolas
  • Interlocking paver patios in running bond, herringbone and plank layouts
  • Patio floors for fire pits and outdoor kitchens
  • Seat walls, planters and low walls around the patio
  • Patio steps and level changes on sloped yards
  • Old patio demo, base correction and rebuild
  • Drainage falls that move water away from the house

Concrete Patios and Covered-Patio Slabs

A concrete patio is the working answer for most LA backyards: one clean pour, finished for the use, pitched just enough to drain away from the house. We form and pour patios on compacted base with control joints laid out so the normal hairline lands in a straight sawcut, and we finish them broom for grip, smooth trowel for a modern house, or with integral color and banding. Homewyse puts a basic concrete patio at $10.59 to $12.99 per square foot, its September 2026 national average and the lowest entry price of the three patio surfaces. Our concrete patio price guide shows what base work and tear-out add.

Covered patios start with us too. A pergola or a solid patio cover needs a slab and footings poured to the cover builder's plan, with post bases set where the drawings say and the slab pitched so the cover sheds water the right way. We pour that stage, the cover goes up, and the yard is ready for furniture. One of the patios on our work page is exactly that build: a fresh concrete floor under a new pergola with stone accents.

Paver Patios That Move With the Ground

LA's expansive clay swells wet and shrinks dry, and a one-piece slab answers that movement by cracking. An interlocking paver patio answers it by flexing, but only over a real base: excavation to depth, base rock compacted in lifts, screeded bedding, edge restraint at every border and polymeric sand locking the joints. That section is most of the cost and the entire reason a paver patio stays flat, and our paver patio cost guide explains why cheap bids find their discount there.

Pavers also give the patio its design range. Large-format planks read modern, running bond stretches a small yard, and a soldier-course border frames the field like trim. Seat walls faced in stone veneer rise from the same field, a fire pit sinks into it, and a paver pool deck runs the same pattern to the water. The full material story lives on our paver installation page.

Clay brick is its own build. Fired clay brick laid in herringbone or basket weave, sand-set or mortared onto a slab, lives on our clay brick patio page.

Want a Natural Stone Patio Instead?

Flagstone is the patio for a yard with trees and curves, and it has a page of its own. Our flagstone patio installation and repair page covers dry-laid and mortared flagstone, garden paths, entry steps and resetting an old stone patio. Concrete and pavers, the two surfaces on this page, suit a patio that needs a flat, even floor for furniture, a covered-patio slab or a paver field that runs out to the pool.

Whatever the surface, the patio is usually where the bigger plan starts. Add the fire pit or kitchen island and the patio stops being a surface and becomes where the evening happens.

How much does a patio cost in Los Angeles?
Published LA guides put installed paver patios at $15 to $30 per square foot, so a 400-square-foot paver patio lands roughly $6,000 to $12,000. Homewyse puts September 2026 national averages at $10.59 to $12.99 per square foot for a basic concrete patio and $25.82 to $33.38 for flagstone. Demo of an old slab, steps and walls are priced as their own lines in our written quote.
Concrete, pavers or flagstone: which patio should I pick?
Concrete wins on entry price and clean modern lines. Pavers cost more, then flex with LA clay instead of cracking and repair by the unit. Flagstone is the natural look, priced like the craftwork it is. Yards with tree roots or drainage trouble lean toward pavers or dry-set flagstone. We build all three, so the advice fits the yard.
Do I need a permit for a patio in Los Angeles?
In the City of Los Angeles, a patio floor at ground level is usually exempt: the building code needs no permit for platforms, walks and driveways up to 30 inches above grade and not over a basement. Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena and the other cities set their own rules. Walls, steps and a patio cover are separate questions, and the cover is permitted work through the cover builder. Our patio permit guide for Los Angeles walks through raised patios, walls and grading. We flag the permit picture with the quote.
Can you replace my old cracked patio?
Yes, and it is a large share of our patio work. We saw-cut and remove the old slab, correct the base and the drainage that let it fail, and build the new surface you choose. If the old concrete is still sound, resurfacing can be the cheaper route, and we tell you which case you have at the site visit.
How long does a patio take to build?
A straightforward concrete or paver patio runs from a few days to about a week, longer with demolition, seat walls or steps. Concrete takes foot traffic after a couple of days and furniture within the week. Paver and flagstone patios are ready for use as soon as the joints are finished. Your timeline comes with the quote.
