    Professionalism and courtesy from start to finish. Phil was accommodating with scheduling a consultation, and took the desires of both my fiancée and myself into account when planning the backyard. Took about a month for the material to arrive, but once construction started, total time on site was just over two weeks (and one of those days was pretty inclement weather). Quite happy with the results, and the speed at which the top notch work was achieved. Will definitely be calling Phil back when we are ready to tackle our front yard visions.

    Avoid this company at all cost. This is a full truthful review of our experience with Blue Ribbon Pavers. We decided to go with Blue Ribbon, because, at the time of estimate, (the owner) Phil said he was the only one in town with the Belgrad Pavers that matched our driveway. At time of estimate Phil measures nothing correctly, asks what you want, and scribbles writing on his estimate sheets. He writes down a high estimate, and then he wants you to sign that second and give him a large deposit. We signed late March 2022, after having him out early March 2022, he told us the job would start in six weeks, it didn't. It started second week of July 2022, and the only reason it started then was because I demanded a refund of our deposit. The lady at the office is nice, but has no clue what jobs are in line, what is about to be completed, and has no time lines. She admitted to me the owner provides her no information. So they showed up with six pallets of Belgrad pavers with a color close to our driveway pavers and the lady of the house just wanted the job done at that point and so did I. The owner's workers admitted to us, Belgrad changed the color and said they don't make the color of our driveway anymore. So the owner was not truthful at time of estimate. Phil brought one sample of travertine because we were considering it, but he only brought one sample. We were willing to spend $4,000.00 more to do travertine, around our pool, but not with only one sample provided. We were not offered to go look at what he had on hand in his supply yard. He just showed us pictures of completed jobs on his tablet. We had our design in our minds and had to tell the guys everything and watch them. The workers were nice, and asked us questions, but they threw trash in our yard during the project, slept on the dirt under our pergola multiple hours every day and on the side of our house too, let trash blow in our pool, showed up at all different times every day, and debated us on the job aspects by our driveway and had to call the owner, to which we said we told him at estimate what we wanted and showed him. The project out in the front of our house the workers did not even know about, and they had to bring two more pallets of pavers. We paid $23,802.00 for pavers on each side of our pool, three block retaining walls with benches, seven lights, paver work wrapping around our trashcan hider to our driveway and some rock for areas in our backyard. They did the work out front to high with no round edges, the owner wanted final payment, we told him our issues with the job, and his response was, "it's done". I asked him via text to come fix somethings, I got no response. This company does not stand by its work, some pavers have sunk, the pool drains they put in are uneven, did not match our older one's color, and they did not take the orange tape off the drains and left it to us and it came off bad. The work is average at best. They use no paver treatment underneath pavers for drainage except a little sand, no paver drains, and no polymeric sand when the job is done. Also, after giving Phil the final check he asked, if we were going to leave him a positive review? He did not walk the whole job and inspect everything his workers did. See photos, of our job, it looks ok, but we are going to hire someone to take the white pool drains out, put polymeric sand in, and seal our pavers. We were going to have all our pavers sealed by Blue Ribbon for $3,000.00 on top of what we paid, but we did not want them on our property to do more subpar work. Pavers must be cleaned (pressure washed), resanded, and then sealed. Phil tried to send a guy out with paver sealer and sprayer and call it a day and get another check. Avoid this company at all cost they do average work, are ran poorly, don't stand by their work (no warranty), among many other issues. I gave Blue Ribbon two stars one for the workers being nice and the office lady being nice, and the other star for the workers trying to do a decent job because they tried. Avoid, Blue Ribbon Pavers!

    Blue Ribbon gave us a spectacular finish! From start to finish the crew was professional and hardworking. Juan was especially talented in laying the pavers and directing his crew. You won’t be disappointed if you choose Blue Ribbon.

    Blue Ribbon Brick Paver Specialist delivered an exceptional service.

    Phil and his team demonstrated exceptional professionalism throughout the entire project. They successfully removed our existing concrete driveway, front porch, and entryway, replacing them with a visually appealing three-paver design. The installation process was seamless and efficient. The three-member team arrived promptly each morning, working diligently and cohesively.

    Beyond their remarkable craftsmanship, we were particularly impressed by the crew’s commitment to maintaining a clean and organized work site.

    While Blue Ribbon Pavers may not be the most cost-effective option, the use of premium materials combined with their meticulous attention to detail justifies the investment. We highly recommend Phil for your next project. You will be thoroughly satisfied with the results.

    Phil and his crew installed pavers at our house a number of years ago. It transformed our house's aesthetic. Absolutely beautiful work. Everyone we have ever interacted with at Blue Ribbon has been personable, responsive and professional. If you are thinking about installing pavers they are the right choice!

    I've been meaning to take pictures and write a review, but what a busy year. So now you can see the landscaping after 1 year! (Complete with massive roughhousing by animals and water slides and pools by kids!) The yard is holding up and I can't even believe it's a full year old. So glad we went with these guys. They did a phenomenal job matching the height of our existing back porch. It's seamless. Would highly recommend. Lastly, we designed one thing, and the landscaping crew recommended a change and outline it for us so we could see the difference. They know what they are talking about, I'm glad they spoke up! Looking forward to many more years ahead.

    We had a great experience working with Phil and his team on our project, love the way it turned out and have even gotten some very positive remarks from our neighbors. We met with Phil and let him know we had two projects; one being to replace the asphalt driveway with pavers and to have pavers and artificial turf installed in the back yard. We walked the area explaining what we were thinking, and Phil had some very good design feedback to make the project look better and more functional. We have some drainage issues in the backyard, and Phil recommended installing a draining system with our paver walkway and showed us some examples of how he did this with other customers.

    Once started the project took two weeks and Phil sent out two crews, one to work on the driveway and the other to do the backyard. When the crews arrived, they had a basic idea of the project, and I was able to work with them to explain exactly what we were wanting done. Both crews were very communicative with us, and offered several suggestions that actually improved the design. We worked mostly with Oscar, Johnny and Juan and they all did an excellent job. They arrived at about 7:00am and usually left around 3:30 to 4:00pm. Since we were adding pavers to a previous patio area, the team did an exceptional job at weaving in the new pavers to blend in with the existing pavers. We chose to go with curving borders, and we are especially pleased with how the walkway to the pool turned out, the border around the back of the turf, as well as the pavers in front of our AZ room. We went with installing landscaping lights on the borders for the back and the driveway and they complement the lighting we already have and add more ambiance to the yard.

    Admittedly, the cost was a bit higher than another quote we received from a previously used contractor, but seeing how much work was done over the 2 weeks, the professionalism of the workers, the added features of lights and sealing the pavers, as well as the grading of the yard to help with drainage, it was well worth it. We now sit on our patio and enjoy the overall look of our yard and are very happy we worked with Phil, Blue Ribbon and his teams!

    Phil and the team, including Oscar, Johnny, Leonardo, and Antonio, provided an A+ experience before, during,and after creating the beautiful paver driveway at my home, replacing a 40 year old cracked and tarnished concrete one. The team couldn't have been more accommodating to answer all questions and get the little things done that contributed to the bigger project. Several neighbors have told me how beautiful the driveway is and the extraordinary work completed by the team. In addition to the beauty of the project, I asked that the steepness of the driveway be leveled so that cars/trucks with a lower undercarriage didn't scrape going up or down. That was accomplished! And the night lights add a nice touch, too. This company has talent and listens to customers.

    Phil and the entire crew with Blue Ribbon gave us such a wonderful and professional experience. We could tell when speaking with Phil for our estimate that he had so much knowledge, experience and great relationships with vendors he obtained our pavers from. Alex and his crew began work exactly on the day they promised, were here every day on time and worked very hard. Their attention to details on every paver, corner, edge and borders is outstanding. The job was so organized at all times and did not disrupt our coming and going nearly as much as we thought it would. They would always listen to what we wanted and did not hesitate to make any changes to accommodate us. The photos do not even begin to show the beauty of this driveway and all the work they put into this job. The job was completed on time and within less time than anticipated. This job was well worth the price we paid and within our budget. This is by far the finest construction job we have had done by any other contractor at our home. I would highly recommend Blue Ribbon for your next project, you will not be disappointed.

    Lance was very prompt and professional. His knowledge about my drainage issue was top notch. As a single mom I was nervous about having contract work done. But the price I got was very fair. Well worth not having the flooding issues during monsoon season! Can’t say enough good things about this company!
