We recently filled in our pool with the plan to completely re-do our backyard. After getting plans/renderings done by Yardzen, we interviewed several contractors and based on our interactions with our eventual project manager Ryan as well as their competetive pricing, we went with FG Pavers for our backyard transformation.

Our project included installation of pavers and rock in our entire backyard and both side yards, drip irrigation and installation of all new plants/trees, the demolition of an existing overhang/balcony and the construction of a new, larger balcony, the construction of a large enclosed walk-in planter box, and integrated lighting. This was the largest home renovation project we've tackled to date, and Ryan and his team (plus the external contractor teams recommended by FG Pavers to do the balcony deck and planter box builds, and the plant/tree installation) were all very courteous, helpful, and available for questions/feedback all along the way. Ryan was always available to provide updates, ask questions of us on our preferences, and provide feedback when we had our own questions that popped up daily.

In the end, our project went as planned, and we are very happy with the results. I am writing this review about 4 months after the work has been completed and we are still really happy with how everything turned out. We would not hesitate to bring FG Pavers back in for our future projects and would definitely recommend them to any of our friends looking to transform their front or back yards.

Eduardo and Hugo were amazing. We redid our backyard and they put in the coolest basketball court around. In addition, they worked thoroughly with us to pick amazing turf to train for soccer.

Their ability to problem solve throughout the process was excellent. We weren't sure about how to level the area and they had the creative idea to just bring the whole area up and forget about keeping the unnecessary slope to the street. We put in a step to the street instead and it was genius of them to think of it (sounds simple but all the folks that bid on the project didn't suggest it).

Last, they have been back out like 4 Times since it ended to help me add sealant and fix my sprinklers.

They go above and beyond. We won't forget them because they haven't forgotten us!!!! We're a FG family for life

We have recently used FG Pavers to landscape our front yard. We are very happy with the service that we've received. FG Pavers were very easy to work with and provided high quality service. A crew of at least 4 landscapers was solidly working every day so the project moved very swiftly. The communication was easy with both the site manager and the project consultant. Very professional good service. Thank you

FG pavers did a wonderful job on our front yard landscaping. Very professional. Skilled and conscientious workers. Good communication throughout the project. I had no concept of the amount of prep work and excavation involved before getting to the point of the actual turf and paver stone install. These guys definitely knew what they were doing, working hard and steady throughout. I would definitely use them again for any future work we have done, and I would recommend FG pavers to anyone looking to have a landscaping project done right. Thank you Nick, Dan and all the workers for bringing our vision to life.

We were referred to FG Pavers and Turf by Yardzen and we could not be happier. While we interviewed a number of contractors, we knew immediately that this was the company we would be working with. Ryan, the project manager, was one of the main reasons. He was amazing to work with due to his timely, comprehensive communications. One would expect that this level of customer service would result in outrageous pricing. This was not the case. The overall project cost was competitive and completely reasonable. When it came time to install, the process was seamless with Danny as the installation lead. They were able to complete our yard ahead of schedule and it looks even better than the Yardzen renderings.

FG Pavers & Turf did an incredible job on my small backyard and side yard landscaping. Hugo, the main point of contact, guided me through the entire process with exceptional professionalism. We began the booking process in early April, and from signing the contract to starting the project, it took about a month.

Hugo flawlessly brought my vision to life by adding a small putting green and stepping stones. The project's overall cost was competitive for the high quality delivered. Fernando, the on-site leader, was transparent and respectful, managing his team efficiently. He always consulted me for any detail-related questions, ensuring everything was done to my preference.

Hugo promised the project would take 8 consecutive days, and true to his word, it was completed right on schedule. As a bonus, he gifted me three mini putters and golf balls for the putting green. From the outset, I was confident in FG Pavers & Turf's quality, and they exceeded my expectations. Every detail was meticulously handled, with no visible errors.

I'm extremely satisfied with both the experience and the quality of work. I can confidently say that FG Pavers & Turf is the go-to company for all landscaping needs. Hugo was a consummate professional, providing competitive pricing, addressing my concerns, and reassuring me that my vision was achievable in a small space. He maintained clear communication throughout, with regular check-ins both in person and via text to ensure everything was progressing perfectly.

We were referred to FG Pavers via the Yardzen service. Not only were FG Pavers the only ones that responded to our backyard project request, but they were professional, courteous and got the job done right. Tony (the designer and project manager) was extremely patient as we worked through the decision process and helpful in clarifying pros/cons with the material choices. From project start to completion the team was prompt and responsive to changes. In the final walkthrough, they accommodated all of our concerns quickly (some minor fixes needed). We're very happy with our new backyard -- it's so much cleaner, exactly what we wanted! And Tony's lighting design was just icing on the cake.

We selected FG pavers for our landscaping project after an extensive search which included hearing how they could make our Yardzen design come to life.

The FG pavers team was very organized in the initial phase of the project and very helpful in adjusting our plans based on our budget, etc. Overall, they moved the project along relatively quickly, even in the face of supply chain and weather related issues.

As is often the case with any contracting project, there were frustrations and some miscommunications along the way. Some things needed to be redone. But here's the critical difference between FG and other companies: Frank, Erik and team went above and beyond to make sure every issue was rectified in a professional manner. They always demonstrated the utmost class and were always calm and respectful. Frank and team clearly have a high standard when it comes to customer satisfaction. They do what's right to make it right!

Thank you FG Pavers for creating a space we are excited to use for many years to come.

This company was fabulous to work with from start to finish! Erik was easy to work with and listened to our needs and concerns. He stayed on top of the project and kept us posted on any changes or updates. Fernando and his crew showed up on time every day and worked hard to get the project complete in a timely fashion. They did a great job cleaning up after completion and everything looked great! We will definitely have them back to do our front yard!
