Description of Work: We were referred to Greg at Modular by the Brian at Mutual Materials, who we were buying our pavers from. We wanted to replace our concrete patio with a paver patio. Total size was around 400 sq ft. He gave us a quote that was higher than we had hoped and we told him we were open to doing the demo of the existing patio. He worked with me to get the priced down to within our budget. At all times, Greg was very patient and prompt at getting back to me. We knew they were pretty busy in the summer months but we told him we were planning a birthday party for our daughter and Greg made sure to get a team out and had everything complete and cleaned out 2 days before the party. We would absolutely recommend the team at Modular, as well use them again!

Our experience with Modular Paving Systems was excellent from start to finish. We had been wanting to install a backyard patio for a few years and decided to move forward with the project after Greg from MPS came out to discuss the project with us. Greg was very responsive from my initial phone call and request for an estimate, through the final inspection. When Greg came out to do the estimate he spent as much time as we needed to discuss ideas and also provided valuable design input. He offered suggestions and really took the time to make sure we were getting the design and products we wanted. The crew also did a great job. They were always prompt and started and finished the project on time. Kyle, the crew foreman was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions throughout the process. He took the time to explain the steps of the project and consulted with us on any questions he had on our design and pattern choices. I was very impressed by the crew's work ethic, skill and attention to detail. Given the quality and depth of the rock base and the quality of the paver installation, I predict we will enjoy this patio for years to come without any problems. Overall Modular Paving Systems did a fantastic job on our patio. The finished product looks and performs excellent. Greg was always quick to answer my phone calls and took the time to answer all of my questions. He also returned at the end of the job to make sure we were satisfied with the final outcome. I would highly recommend this company if you are considering pavers. They were a very professional operation with personal attention from start to finish and we are really happy with our new patio.
Description of Work: Installed a paver walkway from the driveway to the backyard and a paver backyard patio.

Kyle (the foreman) and Dan did the whole job for us, from beginning to end. First, they removed huge chunks of concrete slab, which had been badly prepped and poured (it varied from 2and quot; to 10and quot; thick). They excavated A LOT of nasty clay (we have sticky gray clay in our area), brought in tons of rock, then filled/leveled/compacted thoroughly before laying the pavers. They were meticulous with every step, and worked hard every day. Kyle has the eye of a craftsman and made everything fit precisely. Unlike some crews that are polite and careful only on the first day, these guys were great to have around! They kept us informed about every step, answered our endless questions, arrived early/stayed late to get as much done as possible, left the area tidy each day, endured the bad weather, and calmly figured out the solution when they came across the unexpected. WHAT WE LEARNED: 1) I've done very small areas in pavers, but driveways really need to be done by paver experts with equipment and experience. Landscapers seldom should tackle larger paving jobs. 2) Watch out for companies that hire contractors/subcontractors to do the work. The pavers may look okay at first, but will not hold up, and beware of bogus guarantees. 3) Lay out your design with stakes and string before you get an estimate. It really helps you visualize what you want. 3) Most important, make sure they excavate soil to at least minimum guidelines, fill with compacted rock, and don't use too much sand. The pavers will start shifting with the expansion/contraction of the soil. 5) Do lots of research, then hire these guys to have it done right!
Description of Work: BEST IMPROVEMENT EVER to our house! Modular Paving (Greg & Joel Clausen) came out the very next day after we requested a bid, and spent quite a bit of time making suggestions. Joel has a great eye for details, and pointed out several items we needed to consider in our final design. Modular has their own crew, which they personally supervise, and do small walkways to large commercial projects. We originally planned to do permeable pavers, and found out that very few companies want to tackle the extra work, but Modular specializes in permeable. Within a month, they replaced our original 1974 broken concrete driveway and walkway with gorgeous holland pavers in a herringbone pattern. It actually turned out BETTER than we expected! The neighbors are still oohing and aahing when they go by, and will get a group discount from Modular if they coordinate their projects.

We had a large concrete patio that had multiple large cracks and a large portion of the patio was sinking and moving. Modular Paving Systems (MPS) was selected to replace the existing patio with pavers. We had considered replacing the patio with stamped concrete but decided against it because of the need to maintain support of a large patio cover. MPS proposed paving over the existing concrete patio for a number of cost and design considerations. They also proposed a solution to resolve the drainage problem that was causing a large portion of the concrete patio to move. Prior to making their bid they made several on-site visits to make sure they had solutions for all of the challenging technical parts of the job. Their communications with us were very collaborative. We felt like we understood the issues and the planned solutions. They prepared the written design and statement of work that needed to be presented to our home owners association for architectural review. This was done prior to contract signing. The project was approved by the HOA, the contract was signed, a 50% deposit was made and they started work on the agreed schedule date. We were very impressed with the quality and completeness of the sales and design process and we were equally impressed with the project construction crew and their work. They are skilled workers with the right tools for the job. They were considerate of the neighborhood and neighbor's concerns. The cleanup after each work day was very good at the end of the work week it was excellent! We did not need to ask, they just do it. During the construction phase we were impressed enough with the quality of their work that we added a change order to the project to re-do some work of a previous contractor and make the projects fit together better that the original plan. Overall, Modular Paving Systems is a class act from beginning to end. They have the experience, skills, tools and customer service ethic one would like to find in every contractor they hire. Based on our experience we would absolutely recommend them.t

We could not be more pleased. Modular did a first-rate job from beginning to end. Kenna and Greg were great to work with. We knew pretty much what to expect with each phase of the project. Workmen were careful in working around existing plantings; they cleaned up the site fastidiously at the end of each day; they were always cordial.
Description of Work: We had long needed to replace our concrete driveway and front walk. For environmental reasons and because we have serious soil moisture saturation in our area (we've lost several trees and shrubs to root rot), our first choice was permeable pavers, though we realized it would be considerably more expensive than concrete. We interviewed several contractors about the job; Modular was easily our first choice. The whole process took more than a month and included removing the old driveway and hauling it away, digging out more than 15" of underlying soil, and filling the excavated area with graded sizes of rock and gravel before installing the pavers. Modular also installed a retaining wall on both sides of the driveway; something that we hadn't anticipated needing until the driveway was completed. Rather than replace the old front walk, which was too low, Modular installed a beautiful stone facing directly over the walk and the floor of the entryway that nicely complements the existing stonework on the side of the house - a bonus we hadn't anticipated.

Modular Paving Systems completed a backyard paver patio and fire pit for our family. The crew's attention to detail, can-do and fun loving attitude was just a delight. They took great pride in preparing the area properly and delivering a beautifully finished patio. The crew worked together so well and each wanted to meet and exceed expectations and they did!! Great company--our family highly recommends them. THANKS MODULAR PAVING!!
Description of Work: Modular Paving Systems installed 1400 sq. feet of paver patio, paths, and a fire pit surrounded by circular pavers in our backyard.
