Our Paver Project is Done - Pic Overload

Our Paver Project is finally done! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon It took 2 weeks, but it was well worth it in the end.

Fernando
Doctor Pavers
631-901-9450

We highly recommend Fernando & his crew. Him & his crew where there every step of the way if we had any questions or concerns. There everyday bright and early to get started and stayed all day to get the work done in the 2 weeks. We will recommend Fernando & his crew to family & friends in the future. We are extremely happy with our pavers and how everything turned out. We had lots of ideas and Fernando helped us with our ideas. We worked out the details as we went along with the project. In the end everything turned out the way we wanted it. Fernando has lots of great ideas himself and lots of pictures to show his past work.

And I wanted to thank dbleplay17 one more time for recommending Fernando to me 2 years ago. Thanks Chrissy! Chat Icon

Well here are the pics. Chat Icon

Words of advise when doing such a large project like this at once, expect for the project to cost more, expect that everything is going to be a mess for awhile, expect to change things around, expect to add things, but most of all expect it to be awesome in the end. And if you are thinking about maybe putting in sprinklers after doing something like this, make sure you get some PVC piping put in under your patio or wherever you might need it. Or of course get the sprinklers done first. Chat Icon We can't wait to get the sod put in, the handrails put in & the new wood stairs in the backyard. Will post more pics when everything is done. Thanks for looking everyone.

Products we used:

Pavers are Nicolock Holland Stone. Outer border is Charcoal, red border is Bayberry Blend and center pavers are Granite City Blend. The stoop bullnose is Nicolock Charcoal, but the risers and the sides of the stoop are Cambridge Onyx Natural. The light pier & small wall are also Cambridge Onyx Natural. Nicolock also has these same bricks, but they weren't available for our project so we went with Cambridge. We are completely happy with our choices.

That looks fantastic.

Unsolicted advice: did you ever think of putting up shutters? I think it would complete the entire lookChat Icon

Re: Our Paver Project is Done - Pic Overload

I'm thinking, it ONLY took them 2 weeks to do all that work.

I'd recommend them too just based on seeing yours.

Awesome!
