Question about choosing paver colors

So we are having Fernando do our back patio and hopefully our front walkway and new stoop. We are also having our driveway done by Fasco. The driveway will have pavers along the sides. Does this paver have to match the paver along the edges of the walkway? Also, do you have the pavers in the front match the pavers in the back?

We are going with toffee onyx in the back but think toffee onyx lite would look better in the front. Did anyone ever use different colors? Do you try to match the front to the roof? Thx!

Question about choosing paver colors

I personally don't think that the front and back have to match because you'll never see them together to be able to compare. IMO, I do want the pavers in the front to match other pavers in the front. Fernando is starting a big job at our house in June (driveway, walkway to the back, walkway, front stoop) and the paver border in the driveway will match the pavers for the stoop/walkway. We are also considering either the toffee onyx or the toffee onyx lite!

We are having the hardest time choosing between the two! Have you gone to any stores to see the colors in person? If so, where? Nice been to deer park and kings park on townline road.

What color are you going to border the walkway with? So confusing!!!

Re: Question about choosing paver colors

My pavers in the front do not match the ones in the back. We have for example River Bed which I believe is 3 different colored bricks mixed together. We picked one of the colors for the border. I think you can do the same in the front. Just pick a color to do the border on the driveway from the colors you pick for the stoop. If your using one color I'd probably match the driveway/walk/stoop.
