Mr. Pavers

We are so thankful to Mr. Pavers and their Design Consultant Mr. John Cordova for such a wonderful job in redoing our driveway and front yard.

My wife and I had been wanting to redo our driveway and front yard for many years. However, due to budgetary reasons, we had not been abled to do so.

We had searched for companies that would perform dependable, high quality work, but also at an affordable price. We found that Mr. Pavers met all of our needs and demands for our project.

From our first meeting with Mr. Cordova, we felt at ease with his expertise and understanding for our project needs. His advice for our project was invaluable, including his transparency in sharing ideas from past projects completed by the company.

We even had the opportunity to visit past projects completed by Mr. Pavers, and, without exception, every past client that we contacted was extremely satisfied by the work performed by Mr. Pavers.

As we were pressed for time in starting and completing the project, Mr. Pavers crew showed up to our home in a timely manner as expected. From the tearing and demolition of the old driveway to the completion of the project, Mr. Pavers crew was able to complete the project in a matter of ONE WEEK!!! Amazingly efficient and professional!

By the end of the project, our home had the following:
-- a brand new driveway and side yard completed with beautiful pavers
-- a front porch with leading walkway and steps with matching pavers integrated with the driveway
-- side yard area covered with artificial grass with the most realistic appearance that would never need watering in these most demanding drought days
-- embedded accent lighting in the driveway, walkway, and front porch that is flushed with the paved surfaces and looks most-beautifully lit in the evenings and nights
-- additional accent lighting in the artificial grassy area

All the work above was performed by Mr. Pavers in a matter of one week and at about 30% less in price compared to the nearest business competitor. Some companies were not even able to come close in terms of providing us with similar completion time and price estimates as Mr. Pavers was able to accomplish.

We also had the pleasure to interact multiple times with Mr. Pavers Company Owner Mr. Glayston Soares, who cared very much for our project needs, particularly in the final steps of the project.

Mr. Cordova, Mr. Soares, and Mr. Pavers crew are absolutely the best as professionals in their industry, and we wholeheartedly recommend them for your project needs without reservations.

Most Sincerely,

We had pavers installed in the driveway and pool deck. Our old concrete was all cracked and uneven. The pavers left us with so much more living space. The job was done fast and precisely. They did everything that I requested and more. John and Alvis were very responsive to my needs and changes. The workers cleaned after the work they had done.
The pavers look beautiful and a lot less maintenance. As a senior, it made my life easier. No more weeds.
I would recommend MR. PAVERS to everyone.
Thank you, Mr. Pavers!

Had a small project that other service providers doing pavers wouldn't take. Mr. Paver was glad to have the business. Several Travertine Pavers around the pool's skimmer basket had sunken and were allowing rain water to pool worsening the sinking of surrounding pavers. Phoned on Wednesday to set up an estimate on Thursday, work was scheduled for Friday 8am-10am. The estimator, Matt, who came Thursday afternoon, assured me there wasn't anything structural or serious going on. He said pavers around the skimmer basket tend to sink after pool construction (2017) in 3-4 years. He said I was lucky to have gotten almost 7 years with barely noticeable paver sinking. Matt noticed some other sunken pavers around the enclosing fence's gate and said his crew would take care of those as part of the job. The job was small enough to remain in Mr. Paver's very affordable minimum price quote.

The crew of 2 arrived right at 8am on Friday (today) and got to work on removing the sunken pavers, preparing the ground under them, tamping the sand and clay material down to level it and placing the same pavers that were removed back in place. No breakage at all. Took about 2 hours for the entire job which included fixing some other sunken pavers around the pool enclosing fence's gate. Work site clean-up concluded the job ..... and no sand or other material got into the pool!!!

Great local company with a focus on ethics, affordable pricing and quality work.

I chose Mr Pavers to install paving stones from my patio down the side of my house and out to my driveway. This involved paving around raised planters and a curved path to the driveway. They did an excellent job, I couldn't recommend them more highly. The entire job was completed in only 2 days of work. They stayed late on the second day to finish up.

Regarding his reply, again I am disappointed with his dishonesty but am not surprised.
The company google reviews has many 1 star reviews as well as yelp, so I am not sure about 90% satisfaction rate when you have 3.7 star review. Mr Pavers is the first construction company I hired ever since I lived here and I am not sure about the 'previous' contractor warned him about me. Nice try to discredit my review in a dishonest way. Yes the pictures I posted are not all final products because I corrected his mistake and had him come over to fix. He had to send his guys many times because his workers would do very minimum work and brush off and hide other defects. And Glayston never inspected the work and demanded the money. Instead, he complained about coming out too many times. Don't you want to inspect your employees work before demanding the money? I wanted him to come out 1 time to fix it. Anything more than that, he should be apologizing for my time. As of today, he still hasn't addressed all the problems I've mentioned. I called him to fix it and he said it would come today, Monday 8/19/24, but he never showed up. So the problems still exist.

I went on a vacation for 14 days in June because I was told the job would be done by May. My mother stayed behind during the 14 days and I told him to continue the work. He would rather work else where until I came back. "We could not work there" is a lie. Yes, swimming pool guy started working on my pool when Mr. Pavers was done with the demo. Swimming pool contractor spent 10 days to finish his work so Mr Pavers could resume his work. However, Mr. Pavers started filling dirt and soil concurrently before the pool guy finished the work. Mr Pavers broke water pipes, electric lines, 4 trees, all upright light fixtures, electric conduit, grill equipment and artificial turf he installed was damaged. These guys are reckless.

" We rarely have a customer that expects the owner to be on site all the time" - Yes we do. I want a project manager to be on site to lead the workers. You don't have a project manager and you are never at the site with your workers. This is the root of the problem.

"unfair projection of what our goal was with you and we stand on the fact that we gave you credits.." Glayston gave me credits. I didn't mention in the original review because it wouldn't be fair for him after I shook his hand but since he brought it up, here is what happened.
He destroyed 4 of my trees by accident. He gave me $700. This is not any near what would cost to replace my trees. In fact, he couldn't find the same size trees, so he gave us money for little trees which will take 2-3 years to grow back to how it was. I could have asked to replace them apple to apple which would have cost him much more. He broke our Viking grill equipment, doors, side burners. They are top brand. I gave him a break and didn't ask for money but now I will ask for the damage. He broke low voltage light lines. He said he is not reliable anything buried under ground. He broke water pipes.
He broke electric conduit. He fixed. He ruined my sliding doors because he sprayed polymeric sands everywhere. My screen doors got stuck. I vacuumed and asked him to vacuum once more. My doors are not smooth as before. I never asked for the damage. Dust is everywhere on my windows and doors and sliding rails. I asked him to power wash and he said no because he doesn't want to be reliable for paint peeling. He installed artificial turf in front yard and it was melted down right away before I saw the finish product. He claims it is my windows fault. Why wasn't I warned about it? He gave me credit for half of what it would cost to replace. Why did I settle with it? Because I told him he put in effort and I feel bad so we agreed to lose 50/50 each. He simply doesn't have experience on artificial turf. He broke my swimming pool remote receiver. Gave me $200, not enough to buy new. and so on. I wish he didn't bring up the credit he gave me. Mr Pavers is reckless.

"We remain very proud of our quality and service"
I have about 30 pavers lights installed. They were taped up on each connection and they are not water proof. No junction boxes, just wires hanging on the ground with electric tapes. and so on.. They charged me $250 for each light and charged me for a transformer, $600, they didn't install. "Quality", "Honesty" is not the right word for Mr. Pavers.

John, Nelson, and the entire crew did an exceptional job on our backyard project.
The team was highly professional and in my opinion real craftsmen. They finished on schedule, doing everything they promised and made some good suggestions during completion which we incorporated into the project.
All in all a great experience.

Mr. Pavers did an amazing job on our front yard pavers. We are very happy with the results, and it looks great!
The quality and workmanship was first rate and they completed the job in 3 days. I would highly recommend them!

I recently discovered one loose paver on the front step walkway leading to my front door. I contacted Nelson and he sent one of his employees to my house immediately to take care of the issue. I could not be happier with the amazing customer service from Nelson and Mr. Pavers, thank you!!

I am updating my review once again (from 3 stars to 4) now that the surplus pavers and pallets that were blocking one side of our driveway have been removed, but be aware that these materials may remain on your site for several days after your project has been 'completed'.

In our case, there were 2 stacks of empty pallets and 2 partial pallets of pavers blocking more than half of our driveway for 4 days (including a weekend), and we had to consolidate stones from two pallets onto one and stack empty pallets into a single pile to make room for family members coming to visit.

To give credit where it's due, I want to reiterate that the paving work itself was done quickly and well; we just hadn't expected to have to move stones and pallets ourselves to be able to use our driveway.

had a new driveway and walkway installed.
SO HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS.
Staff did everything they promised, came as scheduled, working with us to redo look of the front of the house. So happy we went with pavers. Money well spent ,totally upgraded front of our home.Shout out to John who was so patient and knowledgeable.

This is the 2nd job I had Mr Pavers do to my home and like the first one, completely happy with the professionalism, time of completion and quality of the product!
