Patios are a great place for homeowners to relax and entertain guests. But sometimes, patios can feel too small, especially when hosting large gatherings or events. If you're in this situation, you might consider extending your patio using pavers.
Pavers are a great option for extending patios because they are durable, easy to install, and come in a wide variety of colors and patterns. In this blog, we hope to give you some ideas about ways for you to extend your patio while maintaining function and a beautiful aesthetic.

Match the Existing Patio
One way to extend your patio with pavers is to match the existing patio's color and pattern. Matching the pavers will give your patio a cohesive look, and it will look like the extension was part of the original design. You can also consider adding a border around the new section with a different paver color to make it stand out.
Create a Different Pattern
If you want to create a visual contrast between the existing patio and the extension, consider using a different pattern. For example, if the existing patio is a simple straight pattern, you could use a herringbone pattern for the extension. This will make the new section stand out while still complementing the existing patio's design.
Add a Fire Pit
If you love to entertain guests or spend time outdoors, adding a fire pit to your extended patio can be a great idea. You can create a circular or square fire pit in the center of the new section using pavers. This will provide a cozy and comfortable gathering spot for you and your guests.
Install Outdoor Lighting
Adding outdoor lighting to your patio extension can create a warm and inviting ambiance. You can install string lights overhead or use paver lights along the edge of the new section. Outdoor lighting will also make your patio safer to use at night.
Create a Garden Bed
If you are an avid gardener or love to have fresh herbs, you can create a garden bed in the new patio extension using pavers. You can create a rectangular or circular garden bed and fill it with soil and plants. This will add color and beauty to your patio extension and create a natural and relaxing environment.
Build a Water Feature
A water feature, like a fountain or small pond, can be a great addition to your patio extension. You can use pavers to create a base for the water feature and then add stones and plants around it. The sound of running water can create a peaceful and calming atmosphere.
Use Pavers as Stepping Stones
If you have a large yard, you can use pavers as stepping stones to connect your patio extension to other areas of your property. This will create a cohesive and seamless look throughout your outdoor living space. You can also use pavers to create a path to a garden or other outdoor features.
Add Seating
If you love hosting gatherings, then you know more seating is always a good thing. Adding more seating to your patio extension will help your guests better enjoy your patio space. You can use pavers to create built-in seating or add outdoor furniture to the new section. Of course, adding cushions or decorative pillows will make the seating even more comfortable and inviting.
