Multi-Level & Elevated Patio Installation in Pittsburgh – Custom Outdoor Living Spaces by SORCE Landscape

Built for Elevated Living – Custom Multi-Level Patio Design in Pittsburgh

Your backyard deserves more than a flat concrete slab. Whether you’re entertaining guests, enjoying quiet evenings with family, or creating an outdoor kitchen, a multi-level or elevated patio adds depth, function, and dimension to your outdoor living space.

Unfortunately, many Pittsburgh homes are limited by sloped yards or uneven terrain. Too often, homeowners settle for small, awkward layouts that don’t take advantage of the space available.

At SORCE Landscape Contracting, we specialize in multi-level and elevated patio installations across the Pittsburgh region. Our designs maximize outdoor square footage, improve flow between spaces, and solve grading challenges.

Based in Fox Chapel, we proudly serve homeowners throughout Greater Pittsburgh with patio solutions that are functional, stylish, and built to last.

Professional Multi-Level & Elevated Patio Installation in Pittsburgh

We build patios that do more than just look good — they create new ways to enjoy your backyard.

A multi-level patio allows you to separate spaces for dining, lounging, or entertaining, while an elevated patio makes sloped or uneven yards more usable.

Whether you want a modern entertaining hub or a rustic retreat that blends into your landscape, we’ll design a patio that transforms the way you use your outdoor space.

Our Patio Design and Hardscape Services Include:

Paver Patio Installation

Brick, concrete, and Techo-Bloc or Unilock pavers installed with proper base prep and drainage to ensure long-term stability.

Concrete Patios and Stamped Concrete

A solid, cost-effective option for large patio areas. We offer broom-finished, smooth, or textured concrete surfaces with control joints for durability.

Flagstone and Natural Stone Patios

Ideal for historic neighborhoods or homeowners who prefer an organic, timeless look. Great for garden patios, fire pit areas, or relaxed seating spaces.

Multi-Level or Elevated Patios

Especially helpful for properties with uneven terrain. We use retaining walls, steps, and thoughtful grading to create usable outdoor space.

Patio Expansions and Renovations

Already have a patio that’s too small or falling apart? We can replace or expand it and blend the new with the old for a seamless finish.
