IMHO, you might also get quotes on concrete pads, and then painted (stained) with concrete specific paint to look like cobble stone or bricks. I would not get concrete and then THIN brick pavers as these tend to crack. Great care needs to be taken to install a brick patio or walkway if you do not have a suitable base, the bricks will shift and become uneven. Also, check to see where you irrigation lines are located, these are NOT allowed under concrete pads, and there may be a concern under bricked areas.
Hope this helps, good luck with your project.
