"Excellent work and reasonably priced! We recently engaged Salgado's Brick Paving Services LLC to remove our old patio and install new brick pavers, and we are very pleased with the outcome. The entire experience was great start to finish. Greg was a pleasure to work with. He was consistently responsive and readily available for calls when I had questions about the project. Greg Salgado, our project lead, was responsive and available for questions, ensuring smooth communication. A key benefit was their comprehensive approach: Greg efficiently coordinated sub-contractors for design, electrical, sprinkler, and door replacement needs, and did so in a way that kept the project moving along quickly. Greg's team was professional, did good work, and also thoroughly cleaned the site after completion of the project. I confidently recommend Salgado's Brick Paving Services LLC for reliable, high-quality work."

Customers say: Super punctual

"We recently hired Green City Gardens for a landscaping project and we couldn't be happier with the results! JD's knowledge about plants and design is so impressive. He took the time to listen to our vision and made excellent recommendations based on our layout, local climate, and soil conditions. JD and his team's attention to detail was also impeccable. They were incredibly thorough in every aspect of the project, from preparing the soil to ensuring proper drainage. They worked efficiently but took the time needed to get everything just right. I especially appreciated how they kept the workspace clean and organized throughout. In addition to their technical skills, their customer service was outstanding. They communicated clearly, kept us informed about progress, and were always open to our input. I felt like they truly cared about making sure we were happy with the final product—and we absolutely are! If you're looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and skilled landscaper that is in a class of their own, I highly recommend JD at Green City Gardens. He transformed our outdoor space into something beautiful, and we couldn't be happier!"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.

Outdoor kitchens get wet and are sometimes next to pools. To avoid accidents, go with a non-slip material like concrete, brick, or rubber. Avoid materials like ceramic and porcelain, as they are known to be quite slippery. Wood and composite flooring can be slippery if untreated, so make sure to stain or finish these materials.

Generally speaking, tiles are for indoor use, while pavers are for outdoor use. The main difference between travertine tiles and pavers is their thickness. Tiles are around 1/2 inch thick, and pavers are 1 1/4 inches to 2 inches thick.

Pavers are more rugged and can handle different weather. The extra thickness on pavers also makes them ideal for high-traffic areas.

Yes, permeable paving is expensive. For driveways, expect to pay up to $70 per square foot; for patios, permeable paving can cost up to $30 per square foot. Costs will depend on the type of material you choose, plus the standard labor rate in your area.

While blacktop is a type of asphalt, the terms should not be used interchangeably, as not all asphalt qualifies as blacktop. The primary differences are in their composition, production process, and ideal applications. Blacktop contains more stone than other types of asphalt and is heated to a higher temperature during production—300°F or more—while hot-mix asphalt is heated to between 275°F and 300°F. The ratio of bitumen (a tar-like crude oil) is a key differentiator, though sources vary: some state blacktop has less bitumen, making it less durable, while others claim it has a higher ratio. Due to these differences, asphalt is generally more durable and better for high-traffic areas like highways and streets, while blacktop is more suitable for playgrounds and residential driveways. For a driveway project, it is best to consult a professional to determine the most appropriate material.
