"Highly recommended! My experiences with trying to find a landscaping business that actually responded to my request and even show up to look and provide me with a quote have been horrible. When Paola and her father showed up, listened, took measurements I figured I would probably not hear back (story of my life), but Paola sent me her renderings of what I was wanting and added her special touches and ideas along with a couple of price proposals. They listened to what I wanted to do. Paola is very creative as well as patient but most of all so very nice! They took those thoughts I had in my head and made them come true. Her dad is on site with the crew who went to work right away. All of them worked hard, and very professional! They cleaned up and left me with a huge smile on my face for leaving me with my backyard ideas made real. Cannot thank them enough. I have already recommended them to family and friends! "

Oregel brick paving is a locally owned company with 20+ years experience. Quality and customer satisfaction is always at the top of our list so we always bring our highest quality of work and customer service to every job that we complete. Our focus is to complete the job in a quick and timely manner with the utmost professionalism and work with our clients to create the vision they have to enhance their outdoor living space at a competitive price.

"Wonderfully!! They were and always have been excellent. We have a 50 foot patio with 3 sizes of pavers in a random pattern. A large section was removed, leveled and put back together exactly correctly. The entire patio was power washed, resanded and sealed. This was a 2 day job and the price was very good. We originally had 3 other estimates and were told that the old patio needed to be scrapped and replaced with a new patio for $25,000 to $30,000. We wanted to keep the same pavers (some of which were no longer made) and pattern, and Oregel were the only company that could do this and for a fraction of the other estimates."

"CRACKS, CRACKS CRACKS !!!My brand new ten month old driveway from Total Paving is a bunch of CRACKS!!! The cracks are growing longer and wider and new ones are forming all over my driveway- down the center of the whole driveway, along the sides and in between. The owner of Total paving George Lozada even noted on an invoice that “a notable amount of cracking , which is not typical for a year old driveway , has become an issue that may not be resolved by typical repair methods”However, he would not redo the driveway which is under WARRANTY unless I hired a soil Expert and agreed to pay for the dig up of the old driveway undercutting and new asphalt which was going to be the case as asking for a driveway without cracks was opening a can of worms . I already paid 11,589 and am not going pay for a redo .The Total Paving says they Guarantee an esthetically complete driveway that shows off its quality through its beauty”- that is Not my Cracked driveway! Total Paving website states “our commitment to you is to provide a strong and durable pavement that us functional , reliable for years to come “ - that is Not my Cracked driveway.Total Paving website states “the proper steps are taken to install a driveway that lasts “-that us not my Cracked driveway! Whether it was improper base,( which I have pictures when they widened my driveway on the cracked side they never added any rocks or base the day of installation)wet base, the asphalt material or installation workmanship something went wrong that day and my driveway from Total Paving is horribly Cracked!"

"I hired these people to do my backyard and paver. They did an excellent job doing it. When something doesn’t look right to them, they fixed it for free! This is what I call a good service. The price was reasonable and affordable, it’s better than other deals I’ve seen. Their service goes beyond five-stars. If there was a higher option, I would give it ten-stars! The finished product looked, Clean, Beautiful, and they really put a lot of effort into my backyard. Now when I glance at my backyard, it looked much better than before. I would definitely recommend their service."

Retaining wall installations FAQs

With proper design and construction, stone retaining walls can last anywhere from 50 to 200 years. They're built to withstand soil pressure and environmental factors, especially when reinforced with geogrid and constructed on solid foundations. Using quality materials and skilled professionals ensures your retaining wall will be durable for decades.

You can choose between natural stone and stone veneer for your project. Natural stone offers timeless durability and character, while stone veneer provides a sleek, modern look and is lighter to install. Both options are strong and provide good drainage. Consider your budget, maintenance preferences, and design goals to decide which material is best for your wall.

Choosing the right masonry professional is key to ensuring your stone wall stands the test of time. Be sure to check that the contractor has valid licenses and certifications, and a strong track record of quality work. Look at their past projects and read customer reviews. Meeting them in person and getting detailed quotes will help you make an informed decision. Taking these steps will help you find an expert who can build a sturdy and beautiful wall for your home.
