Custom Patios, Pavers & Outdoor Living Spaces

Seamlessly integrated with your pool design — built to last decades and transform your entire backyard.

Beyond the Pool — Complete Outdoor Spaces

A great pool deserves a great surround. Dr. Zee's hardscaping team designs and builds custom paver patios, walkways, steps, and retaining walls that integrate seamlessly with your pool and the architecture of your home.

We work with concrete pavers, porcelain tile, natural bluestone, and stone veneer — every material selected to handle NJ's freeze-thaw cycles without cracking or heaving. We'll help you choose the right material for your climate, budget, and aesthetic.

Because we handle both pools and hardscaping, everything gets designed and built as a single cohesive project. No coordinating between separate contractors, no mismatched finishes, no scheduling conflicts. One team, one vision, one timeline.

Our hardscaping goes beyond pool decks — we do full backyard transformations including fire pit areas, outdoor kitchens, front yard renovations, retaining walls, and driveway aprons. If it involves stone, pavers, or concrete, we build it.

Everything You're Wondering About

What types of pavers do you install?
We work with concrete pavers, porcelain tile, natural bluestone, and manufactured stone veneer. Each has different looks, price points, and maintenance needs — we'll walk you through the options.
Can you do pool and hardscaping at the same time?
Yes — and it's the best way to do it. Building both together means seamless integration, a more efficient schedule, and often a better price than doing them separately.
How long does a paver patio last?
A properly installed paver patio using quality materials can last 25–30 years or more. Individual pavers can be replaced if damaged — a major advantage over poured concrete.
Do I need a permit for a patio in NJ?
Requirements vary by municipality and depend on size and grading. We assess permit needs during the consultation and handle the process if required.
What's the difference between porcelain and concrete pavers?
Porcelain is denser, more stain-resistant, and has a higher-end look. Concrete pavers offer more texture variety and are typically more affordable. Both perform well in NJ's climate when properly installed.
How much does a paver patio cost in NJ?
Concrete paver patios generally start around $15–$25 per square foot installed. Porcelain and natural stone are higher. An on-site consultation gives us everything we need to provide an accurate quote.
