I do everything inside and out. I have 7 years of carpentry experience and have worked as a carpenter in the military. I can do stairs, decks, siding, cabinets, trim, doors, windows, shelving, some auto repairs, anything else you can name. I will also build furniture, cutting boards, or any other specialty items. I am married with 2 children and I am currently a full time Firefighter with 2 out of 3 days off so I have plenty of time to work for you.

"I was extremely pleased. The young man was on time, polite and efficient. I look forward to calling him for future home projects."

Owner operated

"Hired from Yellow Pages, to redo steps and sideway. a) Work was completed in a shoddy and hurried manner b) Left the work area with concrete pieces, cigarette butts, nails, and even a large iron rod strewn all over. Did not bother to clean up, damaged the lawn, with no attempt to fix any of it. c) The steps had large jagged gaps under it (not fully reaching the ground), refused to address it until I threatened to go the BBB with a complaint. d) When he finally did show up, he patched it poorly, leaving the front stairs to my house worse than before the project. e) One side of the steps still has a piece of concrete jutting out, which he hasn't bothered to address. I will most likely get this rebuilt in the future, I would advise others to not pay, until full inspection of work from this provider (I paid him in full faith, which was error in judgement on my part)."

Pavers and Hardscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, interlocking pavers need sand both as a base and as a finishing touch to fill any gaps. Sand helps keep your pavers in place to avoid shifting, especially for areas with high foot or vehicle traffic. It also helps prevent water buildup by providing a channel for water drainage.

If you’ve researched everything there is to know about gravel driveways and aren’t sold on the idea, you have options. Gravel alternative materials for driveways include traditional options like concrete and asphalt. If you want the look of natural stone, stone pavers are another option that sometimes uses gravel around the pavers. For maximum drainage, permeable driveways or brick driveways are also popular choices.

Most installations take 3-10 days, depending on the area size and design complexity.

A paved driveway adds $5,000 to $7,000 to the value of your home. That’s because it increases your curb appeal and the functionality of your outdoor space, which appeals to potential buyers.

You can walk on newly sealed pavers as long as they’ve had enough time to dry and cure—typically after 24 hours for patios and walkways. Even so, don’t rush it. Humidity, temperature, and the type of sealant you use can stretch that window up to 72 hours. Rushing it can leave footprints or even damage the finish, especially if the surface hasn’t fully hardened. For driveways, wait at least three full days before parking or driving over them. Always check your sealant label for the most accurate timeline, since not all products cure the same way.
