Why two Naples quotes can differ
Pattern
Herringbone and curves take longer to lay and waste more stone than a running bond.
Permit
At-grade patios often need no permit; add a retaining wall, a cover, or a connection to the house and that changes.
Paver material
Pavers alone average $2-$4 per sq ft but the full range is $1-$15 depending on concrete, brick, or natural stone (HomeGuide).

The best months for paver patio in Naples
Climate numbers on this page come from NOAA's 1991-2020 U.S. Climate Normals at the nearest suitable station, Naples Muni Ap (in the city). They are 30-year averages, so any one year can run hotter, colder or wetter.
For digging, grading and setting material in the ground, the comfortable months in Naples are October through May: 8 of 12. Outside them, June, July, August and September have an average daytime high of 90°F or more.
Naples gets about 50 inches of precipitation in a normal year. The wettest months are July, August and September (8.9 inches in August). Inside the workable window, November and December are the driest, at 1.4 and 1.3 inches. The station averages about 103 days a year at 90°F or above.
We do not adjust the estimate by month, because we have no reliable published data on seasonal pricing. It is still worth asking contractors whether an off-peak start date changes their bid.

Who does the work: Naples trade wages
The labor line is built from BLS wage data, one trade at a time. This job draws on 3 trades. We compare each trade's local median with the US median, weight the ratios by how much of the job each trade does, and apply the blend to the national labor cost. For Naples the blend is 0.97.
For construction laborers (47-2061, weighted 50%) the local median is $22.13 an hour, which is in line with the national $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $18.77 and $24.00 an hour. BLS counts 2,340 of them working in the area, 134.6 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 70.5), so the local bench is deeper than average.
For brickmasons and blockmasons (47-2021, weighted 30%) the local median is $28.27 an hour, which is 5% below the national $29.87. The middle half of them earn between $21.85 and $30.60 an hour. BLS counts 150 of them working in the area, 8.6 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 3.4), so the local bench is deeper than average.
Landscaping and groundskeeping workers (37-3011), 20% of the weighting: a median of $18.56 an hour, in line with the US median of $18.82. The middle half of them earn between $18.02 and $21.54 an hour. About 4,610 work in the metro. That is 265.1 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 61.3 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.
A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (construction laborers) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $110 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $190. That is a swing of roughly 4.6% to 2.6% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.
