Paver Patios
Add serious wow factor to your property with a custom-designed paver patio. Engineered brick pavers offer exceptional durability, design flexibility, and long-lasting color. Whether you picture a simple gathering space or a full outdoor living layout, we install paver patios that stay level, drain correctly, and look beautiful for decades.
Natural Stone Patios
There’s nothing quite like the richness and character of real stone. We build premium natural stone patios using Chilton, Lannon, New York Bluestone, and other high-quality stone varieties. These patios offer texture, warmth, and timeless appeal with craftsmanship that stands up to Minnesota’s freeze–thaw cycles.
Outdoor Fire Pit Patios
A patio is great—one with a fire pit is even better. We design and build patio spaces that integrate safely and beautifully with gas or wood-burning fire pits. It’s the perfect spot for cozy evenings, entertaining, or enjoying crisp fall nights.
Backyard & Outdoor Living Patios
Transform your yard into a true extension of your home. We build patios designed for dining, lounging, grilling, or relaxing—complete with the flow, layout, and functionality that match your lifestyle. Ideal for pairing with lighting, landscaping, or additional hardscape features.
Why Your Patio Must Be Built for Minnesota Weather
Minnesota weather is no joke. Patios built without proper base depth, compaction, and drainage fail quickly—cracking, sinking, or heaving after just one winter.
We prevent all of that with:
- Deep, compacted base layers to prevent frost heave
- Proper grading and drainage so water flows away from your home
- Edge restraints that keep pavers from shifting
- Premium stone and paver options designed for freeze–thaw durability
Your patio shouldn’t just look beautiful on day one—it should still look beautiful after ten harsh winters.

Deb F.
“We hired Gary Anderson Landscaping to put in a paver patio in our front yard with landscaping surrounding it. Bryce did a great job drawing up the plans and the installers did a fantastic job putting in the patio and landscaping. We are very pleased with the work. This is the second time we have hired Gary Anderson Landscaping and would hire them again in a heartbeat!”
Kathy W.
“Gary Anderson Landscaping made the paver patio process smooth and enjoyable. Selection of materials through installation was done professionally. They do what they say they are going to do.”
Rob F.
“We love our new patio, they did exactly what they said they would do and at the time they said they would do it. We will be hiring them again for future projects!”
Renee M.
“We met with Gary last fall before the snow came to start getting quotes on our landscaping project for this spring. Throughout the process Gary was always accommodating, answered all of our questions (quickly!) and was competitively priced. Upon the arrival of spring our landscaping and paver patio was installed quickly and looks great. I will recommend Gary and his crew to anyone that I know looking for landscaping! Thanks!”
Jamie B.
“I just had a patio installed by Gary Anderson Landscaping. We are so pleased with the outcome. It involved patio blocks, an arched wall with pillars, lighting and plants/bushes surrounded by river rock. It rained almost the entire time but the three of them just plugged along and finished in about 4 days. Very impressive!!”
