i called for a quote and if the job was not over 500 square feet they would not work with me. Too bad as i would have done more business but hate it when they only want the big jobs. What am i to do if i want only a small job. Great way to show your work and have me do more- too bad

They just laid pavers, a little patio, and walkways, and did a really nice job with the pattern. It has held up really well. They had a big crew, and got the job done quickly, and cleaned up after themselves. The work took three days.

Had Paver Crafter come out and give me an estimate for a paver patio job. Mark came out and gave me an estimate but never got back to me after that. I reached out a couple days later to see when the quote would be ready and he replied by the end of the day. It's been a week since that conversation and I still have not received a quote. Obviously this company doesn't care about being professional or trustworthy. Decided to go with another company based upon this poor level of service right from the start.

We called Pavercrafters to come give us an estimate. Phone service was excellent and Mark arrived on time. He spent several minutes with me and gave me some suggestions, a nice catalog and his card. He got my email and said he'd email an estimate. After one week with no word, I called Mark and left a message on his cell phone., never got a reply. After 2 weeks, I called the main business number and explained the situation, that person said they would contact Mark and have him get in touch with me. It's been 3weeks now- no reply from anyone.

project went smoothly and efficiently; we worked with Mark S. (sales) who was very informative, friendly and professional; 6-man crew completed the project in 3 days - they were highly productive and worked well together; we were pleased with Mark's design assistance with paver types and detailing; we used a herringbone pattern with sailor or soldier courses (edging) in different areas; the concrete planter wasn't perfectly constructed (there were some gaps at seams where blocks met which we had to go over with hydraulic cement & DryLock to [hopefully] prevent serious leaking) but Mark advised on how we could deal with it

The salesman, Mark, gave me some great ideas how to decorate my yard. The employees showed up and went right to work. I have never seen 3 men work so hard and fast. They were all so friendly and helpful. They gave me further great ideas and made me very comfortable that I knew they knew their job. And they wanted to make sure I was happy with everything they were doing. And the job turned out perfect...I am so pleased.
IT WENT GREAT! I met Mark Sojka at his office and provided him with some plans that I had drafted for a new paved driveway, walkways and patio. He patiently walked me through the myriad of color and texture choices including differences between manufactures. He showed me his paver display area, which was extremely helpful in narrowing down my choice. Mark met with me at my home a couple of days later and I walked him through my plans in more detail, pointing out areas that I felt might be problematic. Mark was very creative and quickly had answers for my areas of concern and made many suggestions that greatly improved my original drawings. Mark provided me with a very competitive quote and was more than willing to answer the many follow-up questions that I had. Upon my request, he provided me with the locations of 4 Paver Crafter jobs that used either the same style and/or color of pavers. This was extremely helpful in confirming the selection of pavers for my home. Mark was present for the beginning of the demolition work as well as beginning of the paver installation. In each instance, he reviewed the work that needed to be done with his subordinates. This was a very professional touch, which gave me great comfort knowing that the project would start out on the right foot with everyone on the same page. Robinson ("Rob"), Mark's foreman, did an excellent job! He has 14 years of experience and it showed. He had many creative solutions such as using pavers for a short retaining wall that enabled my porch to be larger and more useful. He often provided me with carefully considered alternatives for areas that required an owner's "judgment call". He always said "Yes", without hesitation, when I requested things like a tighter radius for a curve in the driveway or a steeper slope in a walkway in order to maximize the useable patio area. Rob and his team worked tirelessly and left the jobsite clean and orderly at the end of each day. I couldn't be more pleased with the final result which is confirmed each day by the asseverations of my neighbors. Given Paver Crafters attention to detail and willingness to place the customer's satisfaction above all else, I am certain that in the unlikely event that a warranty claim is necessary, Mark will honor his commitment. My experience is that Mark and the Paver Crafters' team are highly skilled, very professional, easy to work with and very ethical. I would highly recommend using Paver Crafters and would be more than willing for Mark to use my project as a referral source for any prospective customers.
Description of Work: Paver Crafters demo'd and prepared my residential property for the installation of approximately 3,800 square feet of pavers. They installed an entire driveway, carport, large patio and 3 connected walkways. They also paved a fire-pit / seating area and installed a retaining wall adjacent to a small paved, landing..

I had a very good experience. Mark came out on time to give me a bid, which included the option of building a wall along one edge of my paver patio; he didn't try to oversell me on the wall, and I ultimately decided not to do the wall. Once I accepted the bid for the 1000 square foot rectangular patio (which was about the same as one other bid I received, and much lower than a third bid I received), the project was scheduled for a few weeks later. The 3-man crew showed up early and removed the old dirt/landscaping and installed the new patio in one day. They did a very nice job.

Mark came out and we talked about what I wanted. He offered good ideas and we came to a good design. The professionalism was top notch with Mark and the installation crew, which were puctual, fast, and kept a clean job site. Completing my front entryway in about 5 hours. I love the work they did...All the neighbors also love the work and the new look PaverCrafters provided. I am currently looking for them to do more around my home.
Description of Work: PaverCrafters put in pavers to my front entry
Mark Sojka was professional from the start. He responded to our initial call quickly and submitted a thorough quote. We went to the showroom and picked out the pavers with his assistance. He answered all our questions completely. We scheduled a start date, but he made the correct call to postpone one day for rain. Work started the next day and was completed in four days. His crew worked nonstop and left the property neat and trash free. I would recommend Pavercrafters very highly and am grateful that Angie's List helped me find this company.

As I said above, the quote was excellent, but I felt I had to constantly be on top and contacting Mark to get information. When I finally got the quote within minutes I said I wanted to go with the service. I was told to sign the contract and that they needed a thousand dollar deposit. I signed and sent the deposit right away, I had to e-mail Mark yet again just to find out it was going to take over a month to get the job started..never a word in the beginning about ordering parts or anything. It was like no communication on his end what so ever. I was waiting for the time the job was going to be done, and in the mean time I lost my job and needed to conserve my money at this point. I e-mailed Mark immediately to explain, to get feedback of "I'm sorry you lost your job, but we were going to come out next week to do the work" So they just decide they are going to do the work with no communication to set a date? He also informed me it might be hard to get my deposit back..which I was not okay with, and after multiple e-mails it was finally resolved with me getting back 500 and there is now a 500 deposit for 6 mos if I can afford the work. I am okay with the resolution, and I am not upset with them for me having to cancel the job, but I already felt bad for having to cancel, and I have two children to take care of the last thing I need is to spend more money with no job. My biggest complaint on the company is the lack of communication. They might want to tell clients upfront how long it will take to get the job done. Also keeping in touch with the client is appropriate, the client should not have to constantly be chasing after them.
Description of Work: Mark came out to get measurements and would e-mail me the quote for the project. I had to call him to find out where the quote was a day after he said I would have it. I finally got the quote and liked the price, and all went down hill from there.

They did a fine job start to finish. Mark was my contact. He took care of everything. He consulted with me on my new design. He made adjustments when I changed my mind. He was a pleasure to work with. When we ran up against a big tree root, he took the shovel in hand and handled it right on the spot. The work was done very professionally by a large crew that knew exactly what they were doing so it was done in a timely manner.

I went with somebody else. The estimate was around $15000. They are excellent. The owner is topnotch. I wish I had gone with them. Their price was pretty close. If I had known more about the other company, I would have gone with Paver Crafters. Their responsiveness was fine. I would definitely call them in the future if I need similar work done.

Doug Corey and PaverCrafters exceeded our expectations from start to finish. We started with a current survey and looked at the possibilities for expanding both the driveway and front walkway. PaverCrafters then created plans for us to review and provided an excellent selection of quality pavers to choose from. They were helpful with our choosing one that would complement our tile roof. Permits were pulled and delivery of the pavers was a few weeks out as they had to be made and shipped by freight. When the project got underway it only took a total of 3 days. The concrete driveway / walkway were machine excavated and debris hauled away. Any irrigation problems or relocation of heads was taken care of. Pavers were artistically placed and curving was beautifully done. They had to saw cut the front door threshold to remove existing tile to allow for thin pavers to be installed. The end product was perfect. PaverCrafters did several extra things before setting the pavers - they placed a conduit under the walkway for our low voltage lighting and attached a drain pipe to the gutter downspout with a pop up on the lawn so that the water wouldn't always pour onto the driveway and darken it. The pavers then had to cure for about 30-45 days. PaverCrafters returned after that time and power washed and applied 2 coats of sealant. The end result - amazing. I would highly recommend Doug Corey and PaverCrafters.

Plans were then drawn up using a current survey for expanding both the driveway / walkway. Permits were then pulled and product was ordered. The existing concrete driveway / walkway were machine excavated and the concrete debris was hauled away. Any irrigation issues were taken care of. Pavers were artfully laid for the driveway / front walkway / entry and front door threshold. The front door threshold had existing tile cemented to the concrete that had to be chipped off so that thin pavers could be installed. Prior to the pavers being laid, conduit was laid under the walkway to allow for low voltage lighting and a drain pipe was attached to the gutter downspout and run under the walkway to a popup on the lawn to allow for runoff on the lawn rather than the driveway. Special sand and was applied over the project and swept off. The pavers required 30 days to cure and after that time the driveway / front walkway entry were power washed and 2 coats of solvent based high solids acrylic were applied.

Upon meeting the Owner of Paver Crafters, Mr Doug Corey. We new we made the write choice, he personally came out and measured the area we were going to install the new pavers on. He brought out a huge selection of product, showed us pictures of prior jobs they have completed, showed all local and state licenses, all required insurance certificates and great customer referrals. My wife and I had 3 other companies come out and none of them showed the professionalism that Mr. Corey showed us, there price was very competitive and the quality of his work force was unbelievable, they worked form arrival to departure, and were happy the whole time. Kudos to you Mr. Corey your company demonstrated true customer satisfaction in a world of over promise and under deliver. We will definitely refer your company to any one we know.
Description of Work: They installed pavers on our porch, made new walk ways around our house, installed pavers around our pool, new copeing around the pool, and excavated a large grassy area which is now a paved entertainment area.
