A well-planned patio gives you somewhere to eat, relax and gather, and a good walkway gets everyone to the door safely.
Ironedge Paving & Masonry provides paver patio installation in Bridgewater, NJ, planning each layout around how you use your yard, how water drains and how people move through the space.
The best patios start with a simple question: what will you do out there? The answer shapes the size, shape and position of the space.
Room for a table, chairs and space to walk around them without stepping onto the grass.
A spot for the grill close to the kitchen door, with clear space around it.
Space for lounge chairs or outdoor seating, placed to catch the sun or the shade you prefer.
A dedicated seating circle with room around the fire pit.
A patio that steps out from the back door and leads naturally into the rest of the yard.
A paver walkway should follow the way people already walk, feel steady underfoot and drain well after rain.
A clear, welcoming route from the driveway or sidewalk to your front door.
A firm path for trash cans, garden tools and trips to the backyard.
Paths that lead through planting beds and connect seating areas.
On sloped lots, steps can be built into the walkway to manage the grade. For existing entry steps, see front steps and stoops repair.
An old slab has cracked, heaved or stained beyond what cleaning can fix.
Foot traffic has worn bare tracks across the lawn.
The patio can't fit a table, chairs or the people who want to use it.
Rain collects on the patio or runs back toward the foundation.
A path has become a tripping hazard for family and visitors. If your existing pavers have sunk or shifted, they may only need repair. See repairing sunken or shifted pavers.
A well-planned paver patio or walkway balances space, foot traffic, drainage, and design to create an attractive, functional outdoor area that lasts.
The patio is sized for the furniture and activities you plan, and shaped to suit the house and yard.
Every patio needs a gentle slope so rain runs away from the house rather than toward the foundation.
Position affects how comfortable the space is at different times of day.
A border course or contrasting edge frames the space and helps define where it ends.
On sloped yards, a patio may need a wall to create level ground. Learn more about retaining wall installation and repair.
Pavers come in many colors, sizes and finishes. We talk through the options that suit your home, budget and the way you’ll use the space.
A wide range of colors, shapes and textures, suited to most patios and walkways.
Stone such as bluestone or flagstone, for a natural look with individual variation.
A classic brick look that suits traditional and older homes.
Pavers with wider joints that let rainwater soak through, useful where drainage is a concern.
Running bond, herringbone, basketweave and mixed-size patterns each give a different look. Borders and accent bands can add contrast.
We look at the space and discuss how you want to use it.
Size, shape, pavers and pattern are confirmed before work begins.
The area is excavated, the base is built and graded, and the pavers are laid.
We walk the finished space with you and explain basic care.
Every patio and walkway is priced on its own layout and site. These are the main factors.
The total square footage of the patio or walkway.
Material, size and finish all affect price.
Curves, borders and complex patterns take more cutting and time.
Slope, soil and removal of an old patio or path.
How easily equipment and materials can reach the work area.
Steps, walls, seating or lighting built into the design.

Ironedge Paving & Masonry is based in Bridgewater and builds paver patios and walkways for homes across Somerset County.
Many yards in the area are sloped or hold water after storms, so drainage and grading are planned from the start. We also serve Morris, Hunterdon, Essex, and Bergen Counties. Share your address, and we will confirm whether your location is within our service area.

Years of Experience
Whether you’re repairing an existing feature or planning an improvement, we can discuss the type of work involved and the options that may suit your property.
Renewing worn mortar joints with a compatible mortar.
Repairs for sunken, shifted or loose pavers, and new paver surfaces built on a solid base.
Cracked, loose or uneven entry steps repaired for safe, solid access.
Walls that hold back soil and create level ground on sloped yards.
Tell us how you’d like to use your outdoor space and what’s there now. We’ll take a look, talk through layout and paver options, and explain what the project involves.
Start with what you want to fit: a dining table and chairs, lounge seating or a grill. Allow room to walk around furniture comfortably. We can mark out the size on site so you can see how it feels before anything is built.
Each has strengths. Pavers offer more color and pattern choices, and individual pavers can be lifted and reset if needed. Poured concrete has a smoother, more uniform surface. We can talk through which suits your yard and budget.
Sometimes, but it depends on the condition and height of the old slab and how water drains around it. In many cases, removing the old patio and building a proper base gives a better result. We'll check the slab before recommending either option.
Wide enough for the way it's used. Many homeowners prefer a walkway that lets two people walk side by side to the front door, while side paths can be narrower. We'll suggest a width that suits your entry and the space available.
It depends on your town and the size and location of the patio. Some homeowner associations also have their own rules. It's worth checking with your township before work begins.
