Walter and his amazing crew of one, Victor, did a fantastic job on my walkway and patio lift and relay plus enlarged the patio area by using a combination of new and old pavers. It was completed in the timeframe he promised us and looks great. Would highly recommend Paving the Way LLC. Walter, you rock!!!

Outstanding workmanship, competitively priced, and strongly recommend. Our paver patio was in disrepair. We also have elderly parents who had difficulty negotiating the stairs to the house. We discussed our requirements with Walter: level the patio, secure loose pavers, add a step to each of the two sets of paver stairs (decreasing drop from 6 to 4 on each step) and install railings on the stairs. Walter was detailed in explaining the way they would meet our requirements and the techniques they would use. We received bids from multiple contractors. None would install or manage the installation of the rails. Walter researched different options, and he identified railings that matched our patio furniture perfectly. Walter and Victor power washed the entire patio, and removed and reset every paver. The results were at a perfect level with a consistent code pitch. The patio was like new. The stairs were rebuilt to our specifications and to code. Although most homeowners do not add railings to their stairs, the one Victor researched and installed fit perfectly to our design, and add a degree of dimension to the overall patio image. Bottom Line: Paving the Way delivers. Their end product is top-notch. It was a pleasure working with them.

It has been over a year since Walter and his crew replaced our front walk and front steps and every day I am happy when I look at the job they did. Walter helped us determine a beautiful design for the project that suited the style of our house perfectly. I especially loved his attention to detail, he wanted to make sure that everything was perfect. The crew showed up on time every morning and was fastidious about cleaning up at the end of the day, there was no mess left lying on our front lawn. The price was fair, the work exceptional and we have a showcase front walk and steps to show for it. Highly recommend Walter and his crew.

Walter, the owner, spent time with me going over several different patios that would make my backyard beautiful. He drew out the diagram and helped to pick out the needed stone. He gave me the date the project would start and he was on time. It was seamless for me to get deliveries. His stuff was courteous, clean and considerate of my home and my property. They did an excellent job, and I would recommend this company to do any project . It was a grate experience dealing with this company. I look forward in dealing with them for the future projects.

From start to finish, Walter and his crew were great. He gave good suggestions during design for stone type and colors, as well as help with picking the type of step we wanted. Lots of attention to detail during construction and the guys were always willing to answer any questions we had. Our patio looks fantastic and we can't wait to start using it.

The owner, Walter, did a great job with our paver walkways and steps. He provided a fair quote, and personally oversaw the project. He and his crew performed the work when he said he would and finished on time. He was even able to handle an extra project while he was here. The work is top quality and looks beautiful! I would highly recommend Walter and his crew to anyone!

I knew I wanted a paver patio and Walter and his crew built me the PERFECT patio. I gave him the color scheme and he made it happen. I was so pleased until I had him to do the same paver pattern at my front door that curves around to the driveway. Walter is very friendly and I would use him again if the need be.

Walter and his team were amazing. The work was terrific but what I valued the most was their design work and attention to every detail. This was a large, complex project that included blue stone patio, steps and landing; over 100 feet of veneer stone walls; huge outdoor kitchen; cascading waterfall/pond; veneer stone fireplace; and extensive landscaping. It looks amazing! And Walter was the quintessential professional - responsive, trustworthy, passionate about his team's work,, reliable, hard working, and a true pleasure to do business with.

Walter Fortune is sheer genius! He knows what he is about and his workmanship, and that of his crew is excellent. Our driveway looks so beautiful! Simply gorgeous! It was worth every penny to get the paver stone drive and we are so glad to have gone with Paving the Way. We cannot praise them enough! From beginning to end it was a fantastic experience! Walter walked us through every step. If you are looking for superb quality work and high end looks then Paving the Way has to be your choice for contractor. We have gotten many compliments on the look of our new drive.
