"D&R did a tremendous job of repairing my cracked and buckled drywall.  The quality of work was amazing and even brought his team out during the service to evaluate other work at my residence.  Their team was extremely professional, produced high quality results, and was extremely well priced.  This was by far my best experience on Angie's List and I highly recommend D&R to anyone who needs work done.

"This is the first time I have used Mountain Side Contractors. I found them on "Angi". From the first contact with them (initial call from Brenda) to the last encounter was outstanding in EVERY way! ALL of the staff was highly professional, extremely responsive and provided excellent workmanship. In this day and age (difficult to find a company that encompasses superior quality, professionalism and good value - along with people that want to work) - it is so refreshing to experience a company who stands by their word, exhibits the utmost integrity and professionalism. They showed up on time, were very respectful to my neighbors (noise factors) and always cleaned up after themselves as they found it. Cuco and Brenda were top notch in everyway. They kept me abreast during the entire process. I finally found a company that I can rely on! I will refer them to everyone I know, and will only utilize their services for any future projects! Thank you Mountain Side for making this experience the best it could be! Please see the pictures - they raised our North and East walls and poured a very large concrete pad for our new Swim Spa, hot tub and sun deck."

"The crew of Sam's flooring: Sergio, Luis, Benny, Jose, Carlos, and Diego did a fabulous job. There were a couple of snafu's but they were taken care of quickly and professionally. They were respectful of covid-19 practices, arrived on time everyday, cleaned up at the end of each day, and finish the job 3 days faster than expected. Beautiful job, professional craftsmanship, and excellent customer service and support. Thank you, gentlemen!"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

The ideal distance between stepping stones depends on your design preference. A general rule is to place them about 24 inches apart from center to center to match an average person's stride. Another common approach is to leave about 6 inches of space between the edges of each stone; this can be adjusted to fit the path's total length without cutting pavers. If you plan to plant between the stones, leave at least 6 to 8 inches of space to give the plants room to grow.

If you're designing a new patio in an area with poor drainage, permeable pavers made from porous materials may help prevent water issues. Most permeable pavers feature a gravel-only aggregate base instead of a concrete base to allow water to flow through instead of getting trapped. While beneficial in some cases, permeable pavers come with higher initial costs and greater load-bearing limitations compared to traditional pavers.

The stones do not work well on uneven ground. If the stones are not buried into the ground and made level upon installation, they almost certainly will shift or crack on uneven ground. Additionally, rainwater or water from sprinklers can run under the edge of an uneven paver, causing erosion. In a freeze and thaw cycle, trapped water under the paver can cause the problem to worsen by shifting the stepping stones around. Use a bubble level to make sure the ground under each paver is as even as possible, even if the nearby ground is uneven.

You’ll first need to install a base underneath your pavers for extra stability and drainage. Otherwise, the pavers can sink into the ground, and you’ll have to reinstall them. Use a base gravel layer of 4 to 6 inches for walkways and 10 to 12 inches for driveways. Compact your gravel layer every 2 to 4 inches so it’s nice and solid. After you install your gravel base, apply a 1-inch layer of sand on top.

If your new pavers look dull or unclean, it is likely due to efflorescence, a chalky, white powder that forms when lime in the pavers gets wet. This condition often resolves on its own, as rain will naturally wash it away within about a year. For faster results, you can use a pressure washer to clean the pavers. Alternatively, consider using cleaning products specifically designed to remove efflorescence or applying sulfuric acid crystals.
