"Fantastic work!! Pacific Outdoor Living was such a pleasure doing business with. They have such great customer service. I emailed/called them with so many questions before and during the job. I was afraid I was going to drive them crazy, but they were always happy to help with the decision making. It was a pretty big job, and everyone involved was nice and professional, and they finished right on schedule. The paving stones look so much better than our old asphalt driveway. Everyone who walks by pays us compliments. I think it really improved our curb appeal. Highly recommend!"

"The first thing that convinced us that Cristian was the man for the job was his honest, kind, and helpful demeanor. We weren’t entirely sure what we wanted to do in our outdoor space and he came back on several occasions to discuss plans with us, walking through our yard and helping us visualize the possibilities. We never felt rushed and Cristian genuinely wanted us to end up with a space that we really enjoyed, which in the end, we did. He also offered information from his years of experience in both landscaping and other construction work. He really knows his stuff! He was also very responsive whenever we needed to discuss something. When the work began, he arrived on time with a good crew and they worked efficiently to get each stage of the project done ahead of the estimated timeframe. Our happiness was in the little details too. When asked to be careful of newly planted plants in our garden when putting in the sprinkler system, Cristian’s crew were careful. In the end we opted for natural grass with a full sprinkler system. We were very happy with the end result. The grass looked great and the sprinklers were placed well so that all parts of the grass are getting water. In a time when materials and labor are very expensive, Cristian’s pricing seemed reasonable and fair. Overall, we were very happy with the work Cristian and his crew did. He has since been in contact with us several times, stopping by to check on the grass and adjust the watering as needed. We would definitely hire Cristian again. He provided a very professional and skilled service, and is a kind and friendly man."

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

The recommended minimum amount for a paver base is 4 inches. From there, it depends on the kind of traffic the pavers will see and the current soil conditions. Two inches of paver base won’t create the amount of stability and support that pavers need to remain securely in place over time.

You should place a layer of thick landscaping fabric directly over the concrete slab and then a thin layer of leveling sand over that to protect the pavers from moisture. For border pavers, you should plan on locking them in place with polyurethane adhesive. This will prevent them from shifting under foot traffic.

Wet cutting is usually the preferred method. It controls dust, which helps protect your lungs and makes for a cleaner working environment. Plus, the water cools the blade, preventing overheating and prolonging its life while providing smoother, more precise cuts. The downside is the mess—water and asphalt sludge can be messy to clean. Dry cutting, though convenient if water isn’t available, creates a lot of dust, which can be harmful. This also increases the risk of blade damage due to overheating. So, if you have the option, wet cutting is the better method for most asphalt jobs.

Yes, hardscaping is generally a great investment that can increase your home's value. Hardscape features improve your yard's functionality, safety, and aesthetics, which boosts curb appeal and overall property value. According to a survey by the National Association of Realtors and the National Association of Landscape Professionals, hardscape upgrades are one of the top four outdoor projects that add value to a property for resale, along with landscape upgrades, landscape management, and lawn care services. While most buyers see value in these features, some may be concerned about potential increases in property taxes or the cost to alter them later. However, the return on investment is typically excellent. For best results, hardscaping should be combined with professional landscaping, and it's wise to hire a reliable contractor for installation.

Yes, a paved or repaved driveway can boost your home's value by increasing its curb appeal and the functionality of your outdoor space. A new driveway can add anywhere from $5,000 to $20,000 to a property's value. An old, crumbling driveway can be a red flag for potential buyers and inspectors.

The amount of value added depends on the materials used, the design, and local market conditions. Concrete is often cited as adding the most value due to its long lifespan, though asphalt may be more desirable in colder climates. The return on investment is greatest when replacing a driveway that is in poor condition; repaving a driveway that is already in good shape will not yield as significant an increase in value.
