seeking patio design & installation in carol stream

I'm looking for a company to design/install a new back patio. Anybody have any suggestions (especially somewhere that won't charge top dollar??)?? Thank you!

i know a deck guy but not a cement guy

I had a lot of Unilock paver work done by a company called Brick Creations (630) 816-2163. They are based in Aurora, but they do work all over the place. Roger Garcia owns the company, and I was so happy with my patio, that I hired him to do additional landscaping later. His price was much lower than the other estimates that I got, and he was willing to throw in a lot of landscaping and clean up work for free. He tends to get really busy in the spring, but I'm sure if you want the work done this year before it starts snowing, he'll give you a great price. (That's what I did.) If you end up calling him, don't be put off by the spelling errors in his contract paperwork. He does everything he says he is going to do and more. He has lots of references and they are all too happy to show you his work and sing his praises. He also has lots of reviews on Angie's List. Good luck with the patio. Whomever you end up hiring, make sure they have thorough knowledge of drainage issues. I've known so many people who's patios flood because they don't drain properly.
