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 wanted to remove our big lawn and replace it with a low maintenance yard. We worked with Tony, Eddy and his crew and they were able to transform our tired lawn into a beautiful zen rock garden. They had a big crew with all the equipments to complete the project quickly. They went above and beyond to keep everything tidy and to avoid damage to our front yard as they brought the equipments to our backyard. The prep work was meticulous with Tony helping us with the landscape design and choosing the right materials. We appreciated the follow up by Eddy to make sure every details were perfect. We asked Tony a lot of questions before starting our landscape project to ensure they were the right crew to get what we wanted done. They certainly delivered. We are enjoying our new backyard! Thank you Tony, Eddy and Team at FG Pavers and Turf.

TL;DR: friendly, personable, quick service and high integrity company. Highly recommended.

Longer story: I moved into a new house that had used Frank for their backyard renovation. The quality of the work done was something that actually drew us to the house and was one of the deciding factors to purchase. Once we moved in we noticed a bump in the turf. I reached out to Frank and he sent out a crew who uncovered a massive mushroom, made sure the area was completely clean, flat and back to original shape then spent time tirelessly ensuring that the turf was put back together exactly how it was.

I was so impressed with the work and will recommend FG to anyone who's looking for a company to work with.

We wholeheartedly recommend FG Pavers for anyone who needs hardscape renovations done for their property. We had approximately 6000 sq. ft. of work including 2500sq ft of pavers, about equal that in artificial turf, and a 3ft high retaining wall that ran about 120ft. We interviewed 7 different contractors with high ratings on Yelp and Google, and narrowed it down to FG and another company we would have been happy to go with.

Hiring a contractor is always a bit of a crapshoot but I feel we got very fortunate to meet Daniel and his team after a lot of hard work and due diligence in our selection process. Start to finish, we began interviewing in November of 2024 and finished up work in May 2025.

We chose FG for a number of reasons. First, Daniel was professional, knowledgeable and detailed in the initial consultation and quoting process. His quote left no question what they were, and were not, going to do, and his prices were in line with other contractors.

Equally important was that Daniel is a calm, neutral presence. Not salesy, responsive to texts and calls, and reasonable in his responses. Not over promising, but also able to execute what we wanted with minimal headaches and never any pushback. He even met us at SiteOne to go over options and pricing for pavers.

And, the pictures online demonstrated an attention to detail and sophistication that other companies seemed to lack. We wanted to go with a smaller, local company rather than contract out to a larger corporation that charges more simply for name and overhead.

They were able to start within about 3 weeks. Once ground broke, things moved FAST. Incredibly fast. Massive bobcats working straight 8 hours a day fast. As the backyard got rolling and we were happy with the crew and results, we added a new driveway to complete the entire look because it made sense and the team was there and working quickly.

The paver job was excellent. Crisp cuts, sharp lines, imperfections only if you get down on your hands and knees to see. You can see some very faint seams in the artificial turf but it's hardly noticeable unless you're being super critical. One area of turf is slightly rippling near a circular landscape cutout but it's not worth worrying about.

Special shoutout to Eduardo, the foreman, and the crew who showed up every day, worked hard and professionally, without smoking or music or other distraction. All very professional and polite.

Our job was not without its hiccups, however. Any job will have some issues and ours was no different. Daniel's initial quote for dirt removal came up very short for the design we decided on. So, that was an extra charge that FG helped foot the bill for since the initial quote was so low.

Also, and this is probably a good thing, the workers (Eduardo and his crew) go VERY strictly to the plan. I think Daniel could have done a little better job specifying in the planning phase that whatever you approve on the plan WILL be followed, to the foot/inch. Once the backyard came to life it was clear we needed more lights here, the path to be wider here, etc. They are super flexible changing on the fly, but if it will require upcharge they will charge. Fair though.

We contracted them to install a yardistry gazebo as well, and they got the measurements wrong slightly so that the drainage and downspouts didn't line up as we'd intended. Unable to change the location of the massive concrete footers, gazebo, they were able to come up with a creative rerouting of the downspouts that works well.

One of the downspouts leaked all over the driveway after a few weeks on a damp dewy morning, they came by to fix it. At month two a few of the pavers separated on the edges, and they came out to fix it no problem within a week. And, there is a slight separation (like, 1/4 inch) on two of the bricks of the retaining wall but nothing worth worrying about unless it gets worse.

Overall we are very pleased with choosing FG and would recommend them without reservation.

FG Pavers re-landscaped our front yard and most of our backyard in August 2023. I've waited to write a review to make sure the installation stood the test of time (at least a short time), and met my expectations (mostly, cut down on the ever-present weeds). SPOILER: YES!!! I was skeptical of pavers having seen paved areas in other's yards years ago and they were always uneven, falling apart, and full of weeds. But in talking though my concerns with Ryan, I was convinced that it was best way to go. I worked with Hugo on design. I mostly knew what I wanted, and Hugo was easy to work with. Both he and Ryan had great input on areas I wasn't sure about. Ryan went out of his way to bring me samples of materials so I could be sure of my choices. The work crew, headed by Danny, showed up on time every day and worked HARD! I was amazed at how fast the work went. Paver walkways were installed through the front yard, a couple planting areas were added, and different types of rock were placed everywhere else. In the backyard FG installed a section of no-mow grass, a section of rock, and a raised planting bed. We had a couple of minor issues with materials going in the wrong places, but they were resolved quickly with no fuss. FG and their wonderful people did an excellent job and I highly recommend them.

Fantastic! We hired FG Pavers and Turf about a year ago to redo our entire backyard. The team did a great job with the vision we had. They were professional and accommodating as we had the pool contractors and FG working at the same time. From when we look at our little oasis, the time and money we spent was well worth it because I know that my love ones will cherish the memories we've made! I highly recommend FG Pavers and Turf, we are so glad we went with them! Thanks Frank, Hugo, and Eduardo for all the hard work! You guys made the experience well worth it!

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

After interviewing a number of companies, I selected FG Pavers and Turf to remodel my backyard, and I'm SO glad I did. First, Daniel came out to answer my gazillion questions and drew a landscape blueprint for me to accompany his reasonable quote. When I accepted, Ryan, the project manager, answered a gazillion more of my questions, helped me with ideas, and then constantly monitored the paver, turf, and rock installations to make sure everything was perfect, even re-doing a step a number of times to make sure I was happy with it. Fernando and his crew did perfect work from start to finish installing my artificial turf. If you hire FG Pavers and Turf (and you should!), be sure to ask for their in-house team led by Fernando. From Janelle in the office to Daniel, Ryan, and Fernando and his team, everyone at FG Pavers is friendly, knowledgeable, skilled, and highly professional. The communication throughout the project was excellent, and I could always get ahold of someone if need be. I'm extremely pleased with my new backyard and definitely recommend FG Pavers.

Our house was built in 89 and the backyard was in a complete mess, we wanted to clean it up and started to look for experts.

FG Pavers and Turf was one of a few contractors that looked at our backyard and sent us a quote. I have dealt with many contractors before, and when it comes to presenting a quote some are quite detail and some are just not. The quote I received from Erik (FG Pavers) is so detail, he really takes it to the next level. For a customer like me, this brings so much confidence and trust. Their price is quite reasonable. When things are completed, the price I paid feels very justified, it feels like a bargain.

Erik and Frank came from time to time to check the progress and to make sure the quality is maintained. The crew was fantastic too.

I highly recommend them for your backyard project.
