Felix Carver

Patio Project Researcher & Cost Data Analyst

I'm Felix Carver, and I've spent the last decade helping homeowners navigate the confusing world of outdoor living costs. After overseeing renovation projects for my own properties—and getting sticker shock more times than I'd like to admit—I became obsessed with understanding the real numbers behind patio pricing. I spend my time aggregating contractor quotes, tracking regional material costs, and breaking down the true expenses behind concrete pours, paver installations, and stone work. My goal is simple: give readers the transparent, no-nonsense pricing data they need to make confident decisions before they commit to a project. When I'm not deep in spreadsheets, you'll find me in my backyard testing different patio materials or helping friends figure out whether they should DIY or hire a pro.
