    Finished restoration

    Just had a really nice experience working with Art and his team. What I really appreciate it's that Arts prompt response, quick turn around time and his team detail work. If you are looking to get help on paver or landscape work, Arts the guy.

    Grout cracking.

    After reading through the positive reviews I was disappointed with my experience. The job was to level our 100 year old concrete porch and then add porcelain tile. It was enclosed with a short brick wall that was also to be demolished. All started out nice with clear communication and even getting to the job early. However, finishing was lacking. The grout was missing in multiple pockets and the spacing in some places went from 1/8" which was planned to nearly 1/2". The step was not lined up with our pavers (laterally offset). The corner of our patio had dipped a bit so this was raised an appropriately leveled. However the pavers in the area were not corrected, which left one end of the step 6 inches and the other 7 3/4" - granted the correction of the pavers was not part of the contract, which led to an additional charge to get it done. It took them a few times of coming back out until the grout appeared satisfactory. They willing corrected the offset. All in all it required me asking them to come back out at least 5 times after the job was "completed." Less than a year later some of the grout is already breaking away in a few places and one tile has separated. There is also a tile that didn't set properly and now I get a hollow sound every time I step on it. They also got grout on my paver walkway and didn't clean it. . . Plus they charged more to repair the stucco that was behind a small brick wall that they demolished (again the repair was not specifically part of the contract). Within 6 months the stucco had cracked. In the end I have a porch that looks pretty good and is nicer than it used to be. Worth the cost? No. Worth the stress and constant negotiation / asking them to come back out? Definitely not.

    Update to my previous review of Superior Paving Systems, Art assessed the cause for my pavers being covered in scum and found it was not the sealer but the sand. He completely cleaned my driveway and walkways allowing the stones to thoroughly dry. Then applied the sand. He advised that sealer not be applied at this time since the stones still have sealer on them. He said in a year we can reevaluate the stones and decide if they need sealer. He said he will apply for free. The driveway looks great. Thank you Art

    Before- Note the 4 foot slabs of concrete already there
    Aubrey M.

    We worked with Art on getting our back yard project done. Our back yard was all concrete and we wanted to put in artifical turf. We got multiple quotes and ultimately decided to go with Art for a few reasons. The main points were that Art got us a formal quote within 12 hours of coming out and taking the measurements. It was very fast communication and we appreciated that. His quote was also very good. He offered us a 10% discount for scheduling with them when they had another project in the same area. The project was planned to start on June 8th, however Art ended up calling us and telling us that they were ahead of schedule on their other project and they would start it June 1st and would be done by June 5th. We were very excited about this. The main reason why I'm giving them 3 stars instead of 5 stars is because of a complication we had during the process. Originally we had planned to pour a 2 1/2 foot walkway. This would have made the width 18 feet wide. We noticed that they had the mold made for 4 feet. When we asked about this Art told us to avoid a seam they were planning on doing a 4 foot walk way. We were slightly confused because there was already a 4 foot walk way that they had demolished, only to put in a new 4 foot walkway. Both my husband and I were in an online meeting during this time, so we just said "ok". That night we went out side to look at the progress and I noticed that they had the outline for the yard one foot in from the border. Right away we talked with Art who then explained that the turf was 15 feet wide. Thus why they put in the 4 foot walkway and then moved the border in by one foot, this making the width 15 feet not 18 feet. Overall this meant we "lost" about 150 square feet of turf. We originally were quoted for 850 square feet and this would make it 700 square feet. We "compromised" by having them put a little more turf in another area which made up round 50 square feet. So we were still about 100 square feet short of what we planned on getting. On the last day we got the final payment bill and I noted that it was the original quote. I emailed Art asking about if we could get a discount since we were quoted a certain amount, and got 100 square feet less. We talked about it and he offered us a 5% discount. Overall we just took it because we didn't want to make a big deal about it. The thing that rubbed us the wrong way was that he came out and measured and knew it was 18 feet wide, but bought a 15 foot wide roll. And just planned on making it 15 feet wide the entire time. Two days later we were looking at the grass and my husband realized that they laid out the lawn the opposite director of what we talked about. We had planned to lay it a certain way because it looked "fuller" when you looked at it from the house. Not much to do here though since they can't just come and move it 180 degrees. Overall we have enjoyed our back yard this past week and our kids love the grass vs the concrete. It's just smaller then we thought. I would recommend them, however I would just encourage you to double check on the measurements to make sure you get the square footage you want. The workers were also very respectful of our property and cleaned up very nicely. They worked very hard, during some hot days and we were very satisfied with them.

    Flagstone patio by Superior Paving Systems
    Amy D.

    For my flagstone patio and walkway project, I got three quotes using the Yelp app. The reason I went with Superior Paving Systems was how easy it was to communicate with them. I worked with Art. He was attentive and returned all my Yelp messages, emails and texts promptly. When we met to go over the details of my project, he really listened to me and made excellent suggestions that made my patio better than what I originally thought. When he went to buy the flagstones, he sent me pictures of the stones before purchasing them, just to make sure I approved of the color. The crew of four who came to install the flagstones were hardworking craftsmen. They only took two days and now I have a beautiful place to enjoy my garden.

    After

    I cannot say enough good things about working with Art and Superior Paving Systems. I initially contacted Art to get an estimate on redoing our front yard. He responded promptly and was able to give me an estimate quickly. It wasn't a problem that I didn't already have a design in mind. He took my ideas and came up with a lovely design for the yard. Initially, it was well over our budget, but Art went back to the drawing board and was able to come up with something amazing that met our budget. We were prepared for the work to take anywhere from 4 - 6 weeks, but Art's guys did it in a week! And it looks amazing. We have been so impressed with Art and his guys that we decided to do our backyard as well, which has been another fantastic experience. It looks amazing and took less than a week to finish. Throughout it all, Art has been engaged and responsive when I've had questions or requests for changes. His guys are quick, professional and have been very kind to my 2 year old who has been mesmerized by them. We would definitely use Art and Superior Paving Systems again.

    Our review is overdue but not forgotten by far! My husband and I had finished our kitchen remodel and knew we wanted to look out into a beautiful redesigned backyard where we could entertain, play and just relax. We started our research by looking into hardscape ideas/materials. This is when our luck changed amid the confusion with the many options to pick from- we met Art Rodrigues! He was so professional and kind in answering all of our questions and concerns from the initial meeting and continued after the project was completed. Art took a lot of time working with us to create a design. He listened to what we wanted. Through his experience, he added unique ideas we had never thought of - the result was beyond our expectations! Art personally took us to look at current as well as completed projects, and met with us to pick out building materials and plants. He was very accommodating with our busy work schedule to meet in early morning hours and on weekends .It was always reassuring to know that Art would respond to any text, email or phone call very quickly. Art's team took extra effort and detail throughout the project. For instance, after a day of rain, puddles of water lead the team to have to remove prior installed pavers, correct the slope issue and reinstall pavers. Another example came at the end of the project when Art noticed that the pavers didn't look just right after the sealant was applied. He had them stripped and reapplied. Any need was acknowledged and dealt with - no questions asked. Our backyard is a "Work of Art". We love sharing it with family/friends and during quiet times as we listen to the water flowing from our fountain. We definitely enjoyed and appreciated the time, patience and expertise Art continuously offered us. We highly recommend Superior Paving Systems and take pride in showing our project to others!

    Renzo and his crew were fantastic. We were not easy clients and had a lot of non-standard asks and…read morequestions. * Renzo gave great advice about the project overall and influenced some decisions that in hindsight, we're really glad we listened to his counsel on. * Renzo was super punctual for all our meetings, a great communicator, and did a great job explaining the billing and timing structure. No surprises! * The crew was very neat, organized, and worked fast. We are really delighted with the results and would 100% work with them again!

    Out of the nine contractors we interviewed, Renzo was the only one who insisted on no cement…read moreapproach; made me consult an arborist; suggested to grade the whole front lot instead of just replacing the old pathway; and genuinely cared about my plants.  We didn't want to hire him at the beginning and was even about to sign contract with someone else. It all started with the inquiry of concrete footing which he refused to do and I wanted to know why. He replied promptly. During our communication, Renzo's clarity, persistence, knowledge and patience impressed and persuaded me, not to mention his very reasonable quote. Instinctively I knew I could trust Renzo and he is the right guy for my project, even though I haven't met him.  So I waited a month and hired him. The wait was worth it. They built three walls and one patio, redesigned front left yard by grading and building a new pebble pathway with statue, installed lighting and irrigation system that had better dripping rings. They also revamped the driveway that made it look brand new and pebble-covered the right front yard.  It was truly a remarkable experience. Not only they did an excellent job with fine craftmanship, but their punctuality, hardwork, efficiency, know-how, discipline, organization, respect, kindness and neatness were a force to be reckoned with and an inspiration beyond a mere landscaping job. They take pride at what they do and the result is phenomenal! Before and during the three-week construction, Renzo was very respectful and made me feel my opinion matters. He was responsive, accommodating, flexible, easygoing and honest. He listened. He always showed how it would look. When something didn't work out, he was open to suggestions and assisted with solutions. I felt he had my best interest. The level of care to my plants led to high survival rate during transplant. I also noticed one of my trees was magically recovered from disease and the other was vigorously blossoming, which has never happened before. They brought life to my garden. Everything was done very nicely. They cleaned up the whole place and it was much better and cleaner than when they started. They also showed up for additional work as promised. Renzo and his crew transformed my old and messy space into the most beautiful and meaningful garden/haven that I could have only dreamed of. With the new lawn, now my garden has never looked better. I spend more time there and enjoy it more than ever. Renzo at Total Landscape is the best! I highly recommend them!
