At Home Service Specialists, we believe a beautiful patio should do more than enhance your backyard. It should change the way you experience your home. Whether it’s gathering around a fire with family, hosting friends for dinner, or simply enjoying a peaceful morning outdoors, we design and build spaces that make those moments possible.

As a three-time Best in the PNW Gold Award winner for Patios & Hardscapes, we’re proud to provide custom patio design and installation in Bellevue, Kirkland, Clyde Hill, Medina, Mercer Island, Redmond, Woodinville, Seattle, and surrounding communities. Our boutique, design-build approach combines personalized service, innovative 3D designs, carefully selected materials, and exceptional craftsmanship to create outdoor living spaces as unique as the people who enjoy them.

But what truly sets our patio installations apart is our attention to the details you may never see. From proper excavation and drainage to meticulous base preparation and precise paver installation, we believe what goes beneath your patio is just as important as the beauty you see above it. Because a truly exceptional patio isn’t simply built to look beautiful on installation day. It’s built to be enjoyed for years to come.

At Home Service Specialists, we pride ourselves on crafting patios that are not only visually stunning but also embody the pinnacle of quality and functionality. Each project is a testament to our commitment to excellence, tailored to meet the high standards of our discerning clients.

Our approach to patio installation focuses on a personalized experience, ensuring that every aspect of the design and functionality reflects your unique lifestyle and preferences. From the initial design to the final touches, our team ensures every detail is perfect.

At Home Service Specialists, we understand that the choice of materials is paramount in creating a patio that not only meets but exceeds your expectations. Our selection process is designed to cater to your discerning taste, offering a wide range of high-quality materials that are custom-selected for you and your needs. That’s why we work with trusted manufacturers such as Techo-Bloc, Belgard, Newstone, Mutual Materials, and other leading brands known for their craftsmanship, innovative designs, and lasting quality.

From the timeless elegance of natural stone to the modern appeal of porcelain pavers, we carefully evaluate each material for its quality, aesthetics, durability, and suitability for your unique project. This meticulous approach allows us to create more than just a beautiful patio—it ensures a lasting investment in your home and an outdoor living space designed to be enjoyed for years to come.

Here’s a closer look at some of the most popular patio materials to consider:

• Concrete Pavers: One of the most popular and versatile choices for patio installations, concrete pavers are available in an extensive range of styles, colors, sizes, and textures. From the timeless charm of natural stone to sleek, contemporary designs, premium manufacturers like Techo-Bloc, Belgard, Newstone and Mutual Materials offer options to complement virtually any architectural style. Known for their durability, design versatility, and relatively low maintenance, high-quality concrete pavers are an excellent choice for creating beautiful, long-lasting outdoor patios.

• Porcelain Pavers: For a modern and sophisticated look, porcelain pavers offer exceptional durability, low maintenance requirements, and a wide range of colors, patterns, and finishes to suit any design style. They are significantly more costly and labor intensive than standard concrete pavers but those who have the budget to opt for this option are always in love with the final result and value. 
• Concrete: Whether you’re looking for a simple broom finish or a sophisticated stamped concrete patio, we will ensure we figure out the perfect fit for your patio needs. Stamped concrete requires meticulous attention to detail and skills and allows you to achieve the look of natural stone or pavers. It comes in a variety of patterns and textures, and can be colored and stained to match your desired aesthetic. Stamped concrete is significantly more expensive than a regular concrete pour but a popular choice for unique and beautiful patios.
• Natural Stone: For a touch of timeless beauty and natural elegance, natural stone pavers are an excellent choice. Flagstone and bluestone are all popular options, each offering unique textures, colors, and finishes to complement your property’s aesthetic. It is important to consider that they come with natural nuances and are subject to availability year-round as well as more expensive than concrete pavers. 

Additional factors to consider when choosing your patio materials:

• Style: Consider the overall style of your home and outdoor living space, and choose a material that complements it.
• Durability: Consider how much foot traffic your patio will endure, and choose a material that can withstand wear and tear.
• Maintenance: Think about how much time and effort you’re willing to invest in maintaining your patio. Some materials, such as sealed concrete, require minimal maintenance, while others, like natural stone, may require occasional cleaning and sealing. 
• Climate: Bellevue, Kirkland, Seattle and the surrounding cities experience occasional freezing temperatures and wet winters. While freeze-thaw resistance is a consideration for some materials, at Home Service Specialists, we have extensive experience selecting high-quality concrete pavers and ensuring the proper concrete mix is used so that all of our selections are well-suited for our local climate. We will factor in your patio’s specific exposure to the elements (covered vs. constantly exposed) to ensure you get a beautiful and long-lasting patio.
• Safety: For year-round enjoyment of your patio, we prioritize selecting materials that offer good slip resistance, minimizing the risk of falls, especially on wet or icy surfaces.
