Every photo on this page is a Valley Outdoor job.

Fire pit patios
A full circle of pavers with a stone fire pit in the middle, banded so the edge reads clean from the house.

Paver patios
Sized for how you use the yard: a grill corner, a table for eight, room for kids to run.

Fire pits
Round stone fire pits built into a bigger patio, even right at the water's edge.

Seat walls
Low stone walls that frame the patio and give everyone a place to sit.

Walkways and steps
Front walks, side paths and stone steps that make the house easier to get to and nicer to look at.
Dreamed. Designed. Delivered.
One real patio, start to finish
A side yard with nothing but grass became a dining patio, a fire pit circle and a stepping-stone path.

Before
Grass right up to the door.

Base
Dig out, bring in base rock and compact it so the patio stays flat.

Pavers
Set the pavers, cut the edges to fit, lock them in.

Delivered
Dining patio, fire pit circle, stone path and new beds.

What patio customers said
"Austin and his crew did a great job with our hardscape/firepit project. Great communication and efficient."
"We are so pleased with the new walkway and steps that Valley Outdoor created! Austin presented us with a new design that works perfectly with updating the front of our house."
"Wrap around path complete with stairs on both sides was not an easy project for sure. The transition with multiple kinds of stones along the path is flawless."
Straight answers
Patio and fire pit questions
Updated September 2026
How long does a paver patio take to install?
It depends on the size, the shape and how easy the yard is to get into. You get a timeline with your quote, before anything is dug. [CONFIRM WITH OWNER: typical range]
Why choose pavers over a poured concrete patio?
Pavers come in more colors, shapes and patterns, and single pavers can be lifted and reset if the ground ever settles or you need to get underneath. We will walk you through both so you can decide what fits the yard.
Can you build a fire pit, seat wall or steps with the patio?
Yes. Round fire pits, curved seat walls, walkways and stone steps are some of our favorite add-ons, and they are designed together with the patio so everything lines up.
Do I need a design before you build a patio?
No. Austin studied landscape design at Iowa State and lays out the patio with you on site, so the size and shape fit how you will actually use it.
