Patios in New Jersey fail from water and frost, not from the paver brand. If the stone base is thin or the pitch runs toward the house, you will see settlement in the first couple of winters.
Build the base first
Excavate to a depth that matches the soil. Compact in lifts. Add a setting bed, then pavers or flagstone with a real edge restraint. Pitch the surface away from siding and basement windows.
Materials that belong here
Concrete pavers, natural stone, and poured patios with control joints all work. We match the material to how you use the space and to the house masonry. Request an estimate if you want a patio that stays flat.
