Beautiful, Durable Patios Built Right
We design and install outdoor spaces made for relaxing, dining, and entertaining for years to come.
Patio Installation Services
A well-built patio gives you more than extra outdoor space. It gives you a place to relax after work, enjoy dinner outside, host family and friends, and make your yard feel complete. At Minnesota Hardscapes LLC, we design and build patios that are made for real use and built to handle Minnesota weather. As a family-owned company, we take the time to understand how you want to use your space so we can build a patio that looks great and works for your home.
We install custom patios for homeowners who want a durable, low-maintenance outdoor living area. Whether you want a small paver patio for a grill and seating area or a larger backyard patio for dining, entertaining, and fire pit space, we can help you plan the right layout. Every project starts with the property, the way water moves across the yard, and how the finished patio will connect to your home, landscaping, walkways, or other hardscape features.
What Our Patio Service Includes
Our patio service covers the full process from planning to installation. We help you choose the right size, shape, materials, and finish based on your goals, budget, and the style of your home. We build patios that are both attractive and structurally sound, with proper base preparation, grading, and edge support to help prevent shifting and settling over time.

Patio Materials and Design Options
We offer patio solutions that fit a wide range of homes and outdoor styles. Many customers choose concrete pavers because they offer a clean look, strong performance, and many color and pattern choices. Paver patios are popular for backyard living spaces because they are durable, repairable, and designed to handle freeze-thaw conditions better than standard poured concrete in many cases. We also install natural stone patios for homeowners who want a more organic, high-end look with unique texture and color variation.
Your patio can be designed to match the style of your home and the way you plan to use the space. We can create simple square or rectangular patios, curved patio layouts, multi-zone entertaining areas, and spaces that blend into gardens, pools, or outdoor kitchens. We also help with features like seating walls, borders, step transitions, and connections to existing hardscaping so the finished area feels natural and complete.
Built for Minnesota Conditions
In Minnesota, patio construction has to be done the right way. Soil movement, moisture, heavy rain, and freeze-thaw cycles can cause major problems when the base is not prepared correctly. That is why we focus on the foundation beneath the patio, not just the surface you see at the end. A strong, properly compacted base is one of the biggest factors in the long-term life of a patio.
We pay close attention to grading and drainage so water moves away from your home and away from the patio surface as needed. This helps reduce standing water, washout, and early wear. Our goal is to build an outdoor patio that stays level, drains well, and holds up through the seasons.
Benefits of a Professionally Installed Patio
A new patio can improve the way you use your property every day. It adds functional outdoor living space and can increase curb appeal and overall home value. More importantly, it gives you a finished area where you can spend time with family and friends without dealing with muddy spots, worn grass, or an uneven backyard.

Our Process
We keep the process clear and straightforward. First, we talk with you about your goals, how you want to use the patio, and what style you like. Then we review the site conditions, measurements, layout options, and material choices. Once the plan is set, we prepare the area, build the base, install the patio materials with care, and finish the project with attention to detail.
Because we are a family-owned business, you can expect personal service from start to finish. We do not treat your project like just another job on the calendar. We take pride in our work, communicate clearly, and aim to build patios that our customers can enjoy for years.

Patio FAQs
Common questions we hear from homeowners in Mora and nearby areas about patio design, installation, cost, timing, and long-term value.
- How much does a new patio cost?
Patio cost depends on the size, materials, layout, site access, and how much prep work your yard needs. A simple patio will cost less than a large custom space with curves, steps, borders, or a fire pit area. We give clear, honest estimates so you know exactly what to expect before we start. If you want real numbers for your property, call Minnesota Hardscapes LLC at (320) 405-4001 and we’ll set up a consultation.
- What patio materials do you install?
We install quality hardscape patio materials that are built to last, including concrete pavers, natural stone, and other durable patio surface options based on your style and budget. We help you compare color, texture, durability, and maintenance so you can choose the right fit for your home. Our goal is to build a patio that looks great and performs well for years.
- How long does patio installation take?
Most patio projects take anywhere from a few days to a little over a week, depending on the size of the patio, weather, design details, and site conditions. A small, straightforward paver patio usually moves faster than a larger outdoor living space with grading, edging, or drainage work. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated from start to finish.
- Will my patio shift, settle, or have drainage problems later?
A patio is only as good as the base underneath it. That’s why we focus on proper excavation, base prep, grading, and drainage before the surface materials go in. Done right, these steps help prevent common issues like settling, standing water, and uneven pavers. At Minnesota Hardscapes LLC, we build patios the right way so you can feel confident in the finished result.
- Can you help design a patio that fits my yard and how we use it?
Yes. We do more than install patios—we help plan a space that works for your home and your day-to-day life. Whether you want a quiet spot to relax, an outdoor dining area, or a patio for entertaining guests, we can recommend the right size, shape, materials, and layout.

Why homeowners recommend us
See how quality patio and hardscape work earned the trust of families across the area
"Needed a retaining wall installed. They were professional, efficient, and extremely helpful! Will definitely use them in the future."
"We could not be happier with the outcome of this project! Keenan and his team saved us from a DIY project that we bit off more than we could chew. He came out and gave us a quote less than 24 hours after reaching out to him and was able to get started on the project the following weekend. He was willing to work with the materials we had already purchased saving us the headache of returning everything. When we ran into issues with our pavers he took it upon himself to remedy the issue with the home improvement store the materials were purchased through. Again, going above and beyond what was agreed upon. He was upfront with cost changes as the project progressed and was cognizant on where he could save us money. We would, with not doubt, hire Keenan again. "
