<p>If you are going to build a patio or remodel the one you currently have, a number of important questions need to be answered such as the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>How do you use your patio? Will you be entertaining a lot for numerous people, or will your patio be used only be you and few others.</li>
<li>What type of pavers, stone, brick or other types of flooring surface will look best and be most efficient for your area?</li>
<li>What size of patio do you want?</li>
<li>Will you need privacy around your patio to be able to enjoy it? If so, what will provide that in the best way?</li>
<li>What shape should your patio be in conjunction with your landscape and the size of your yard?</li>
<li>What is your budget for building and furnishing your patio with comfortable <a title="patio furniture" href="http://www.directpatiofurniture.com/" target="_blank">patio furniture</a>?</li>
