What affects the price:
Material | Best for | Advantages | Things to know |
Concrete pavers | Patios, driveways, pool decks | Lowest cost, many colors, damaged pavers can be replaced individually | Needs periodic sealing |
Travertine | Pool decks, patios | Natural-stone look, generally stays cooler underfoot | Costs more; needs sealing |
Marble | Upscale patios and pool areas | Premium appearance | Highest cost |
Poured concrete | Budget slabs | Low upfront cost | Cracks can’t be repaired invisibly |
Artificial turf | Lawns, pet areas, gaps between pavers | No watering or mowing | Needs occasional cleaning |
Salt air, strong UV, heavy summer rain and sandy soil wear down outdoor spaces faster in Vero Beach than inland. The base under the surface matters as much as the surface itself: a properly compacted sub-base is what stops pavers from sinking or shifting.
For outdoor kitchens, solid stone construction avoids prefab frames that can rust, and avoids glued-on stone facing that can loosen over time.

Pavers cost less and are easy to repair. Travertine costs more but has a natural-stone look and generally stays cooler underfoot. Both work well around Florida pools when properly installed and sealed.
Outdoor kitchens with gas or electrical connections usually need permits, and many HOAs require approval before work starts.
