That's an excellent and very practical question! The answer isn't a simple yes or no, as it depends heavily on the bench's design, material, and your specific ground conditions. Generally, for permanent, heavy, or frequently used seating, a concrete foundation is the gold standard for maximum stability and longevity. It prevents sinking, wobbling, and frost heave in colder climates. However, many lighter-weight or properly designed benches can be successfully placed on a well-prepared, compacted base of pavers or patio stones. The key is ensuring a perfectly level, solid, and well-drained surface. For a secure installation on pavers, we recommend using bench anchor kits designed for surface mounting, which bolt the bench feet directly to the pavers without the need to penetrate deep into the ground. Always check the manufacturer's guidelines for your specific bench. In short: for ultimate permanence, choose concrete; for flexibility and good stability on existing hardscapes, a proper paver base can work perfectly.
Do your outdoor benches require a concrete foundation, or can they be placed on pavers?
