Why Experience Matters: A Conversation with My Friend Robert

Hey there, Mark here, the owner of Perfect Paver Co. Today, I want to share a recent conversation I had with my good friend Robert, a skilled paver patio installer. This chat shed some light on why Perfect Paver Co stands out when it comes to paver restoration, repair, cleaning, and sealing.

Picture this: Robert and Perfect Paver Co both recently bid on a restoration project, a paver driveway that needed some TLC. Now, Robert is a top-notch paver patio installer. He creates stunning patios that are the envy of the neighborhood. However, there’s a catch. He doesn’t often handle the repair, cleaning, or sealing of pavers – it’s not his expertise.

So, when Robert received the call to bid on this project, it was a departure from his usual realm of designing and expertly installing pavers. As someone renowned for creating stunning paver patios, this project’s requirements, including selecting the appropriate sealer and polymeric sand, as well as accurately estimating the required man-hours, were somewhat unfamiliar to him. Recognizing the importance of delivering excellence, he reached out to me for guidance. Our ensuing conversation proved to be enlightening and paved the way for valuable insights.
Robert started by saying, “Mark, how are you guys so cheap?” I was taken aback and asked him to clarify. It turns out, the project we both bid on revealed a significant price difference. But the real question was, why?

I explained to Robert that at Perfect Paver Co, paver restoration, repair, cleaning, and sealing are our bread and butter. Here’s why our pricing is fair and competitive:

1. Specialization: We specialize in paver restoration work. Our team of over 50 skilled employees works on projects like these every single day. We’re not jacks of all trades; we’re masters of restoration.

2. Equipment: We’ve invested in specialized equipment designed for paver restoration and sealing. This means we get the job done efficiently and effectively.

3. Continuous Training: Our crew undergoes extensive training to ensure they know the ins and outs of paver restoration work. They’re always up-to-date with the latest techniques and best practices.

4. Material Sourcing: Robert was buying materials off the shelf at retail prices. In contrast, we’ve spent a decade testing different sealers and have our own sealer manufactured for us. We buy materials like polymeric sand in bulk, which cuts costs significantly. This means our material costs are likely half of what a contractor like Robert might pay.

So, here’s the key takeaway for our potential clients: when you choose Perfect Paver Co, you’re not just getting a paver company; you’re getting a team of experts who specialize in what we do. We have the experience, the equipment, and the knowledge to get the job done right, efficiently, and at a fair price.

Now, you might be thinking about hiring a paver installation company or a landscaper for your project. That’s perfectly fine, but I’d encourage you to check their reviews. See how many of them mention the specific type of project they were hired for. Experience matters, and it’s evident in the feedback from our satisfied customers.

So, when it’s time to restore, repair, clean, install polymeric sand, or seal your pavers, remember Perfect Paver Co. We’re not just about pavers; we’re about perfection. Your satisfaction is our guarantee, backed by years of experience and a commitment to excellence.

If you have any questions or need paver-related advice, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to make your paver projects perfect!

Until next time,

Melissa’s Perfect Paver Co. Story

Melissa and her husband live in beautiful Jupiter, Florida on Country Club Drive. They were preparing to put their house on the market and knew they needed to increase the curb appeal. Melissa knew the restoration of their front entryway and back pool patio needed to be done professionally. Their main goals were to not only increase curb appeal but focus on safety. As it stood, the pool patio was unusable, and the entryway was an accident waiting to happen. Melissa and her husband were on a mission to hire the best company for this project.
Melissa always likes to get three estimates. This allows her to make an educated decision when hiring the best company for her project. “Cost-wise, Perfect Paver was in the middle of the three estimates, but we felt most comfortable and confident with Perfect Paver. I am a stickler for reviews! The Perfect Paver reviews are what set your company apart from the rest and we were excited to begin the project,” said Melissa.
The Perfect Paver team was hired. Ethan and his assistant came out to begin the project. “Immediately I knew this job would be a big undertaking.” Said, Ethan. The first step was to understand the cause of all the damage to the pavers. “After speaking to Melissa and her husband, we came to the conclusion the landscape company had been riding their lawn mowers over the pavers, slowly breaking and cracking the borders over time,” Ethan stated. Identifying the cause of the problem was crucial. This insight would allow Melissa and her husband to make sure it would not happen again. Problem solved, now the solution…The Perfect Paver team got to work.
“My main goals were to make the areas safe and beautiful again,” said Ethan. The first step was to remove the old borders. The concrete border acts like a rubber band, tightly holding all the pavers together in uniform. Once the old border was removed, they took up all of the uneven and shifting pavers. They then re-leveled and compacted the setting base, creating a foundation for the pavers to be re-laid properly. After reinstalling the pavers, the reinforced concrete border was made. The pavers were now repaired and laid as a new installation. It was now ready to be cleaned, sanded, and sealed. Melissa chose a tan polymeric sand to go with the darker brown pavers. After the sand was installed, everything was sealed enhancing the natural colors of the pavers.
Melissa and her husband were so thrilled with the outcome of their Perfect Paver project. “My pavers have never looked as good!” Said, Melissa. Throughout the entire process, Ethan communicated and explained every detail of this project keeping Melissa and her husband informed and educated. ” It was so nice to know that if we had any questions or concerns along the way, your company was there for us,” said Melissa. Melissa was not only thrilled with her project but the follow-up that came once the project was completed. Ethan left her with the knowledge of how to care for her pavers moving forward. He also went over any issues that might occur. “I have a banana tree that tends to stain the pavers from time to time. Ethan explained how to spot clean these stains. He even left me with some polymeric sand in case anything needed to be touched up in the future.” Melissa excitedly stated. “I felt very confident throughout the entire process and after. It feels great to know there’s a company that cares about their customers once a project is done.” Said, Melissa.
Melissa and her husband are so thrilled with the results and the decision to hire Perfect Paver. What were once eyesores are now a selling point for the house. “Everyone that comes to see the house comments on how wonderful the pavers look.” Said, Melissa This incredible project was another success for Perfect Paver Co, and most importantly for Melissa and her family. They are confident this project was the crucial element in getting them a SOLD sign on their house.

Carol’s Perfect Paver Story – Cleaning, Sealing, Sanding, and Tinting

“I want color!”

Carol is a Perfect Paver Co customer who knew exactly what she wanted to achieve with her driveway restoration. Carol lives in the Willoughby Golf community located in Stuart on the beautiful Treasure Coast of South Florida. This is a Spanish-style home with a 2500 square foot driveway. This driveway was original to the house and after 26 years, it was time for this area to receive a little TLC. After seeing an advertisement for Perfect Paver Co on Facebook, Carol was confident this was the company for the job. “It was the first and only company I called.”

There were a couple of challenges discussed during the initial conversations of this project. “The community has strict guidelines when it comes to working during certain hours and I had a timeline. I needed this job to be done in a timely manner to fit my schedule” Stated Carol. The team at Perfect Paver Co was able to accommodate Carol’s schedule to work within the community guidelines.

Nathan and Christian were the technicians assigned to Carol’s project. On their very first interaction, Nathan knew this was a customer who had very high expectations and knew exactly what she wanted. This driveway restoration would consist of repairs, cleaning, sanding, tinting, and sealing. The technicians explained the steps and discussed all of the details important to achieving the best results possible. They were confident and excited to provide Carol with a newly restored and beautiful driveway.

Nathan and Christian got right to work starting with repairs. These repairs were necessary due to a water line going under the pavers directly across the driveway. Over time, this caused the pavers to move and distort the congruity of the area. These altered pavers and others were repaired to maintain a consistent look throughout the entire driveway.

After the repairs, the entire area was steam cleaned of many years of use to get ready for the tinting, sanding, and sealing process. The tinting and sanding of the pavers were to be a very precise and specific detail. He made a few test samples on some pavers that were used during the repairing process. The roof of Carol’s house was a gorgeous terra cotta and she knew she wanted the driveway to be in the same family of color. “I knew Carol wanted a very saturated and vibrant color that would go well with the terra cotta roof. It was important for it to not match perfectly, but be close enough that it was consistent,” said Nathan. Certain areas of the driveway were slightly different colors due to wear, tear, and the strong South Florida sun. Nathan decided that water tinting was the way to approach this particular challenge. They finalized the color and it was a perfect choice for the vibrant and consistent color Carol envisioned. Nathan and Christian applied the tint, the sand then sealed it all in beautifully.

Given the challenges that arose during this project, the results were phenomenal. “If Nathan had not been so diligent and hard-working, I probably would not have had the job finished in the time period that worked with my schedule. I thought they did a very, very good and thorough job,” said Carol. The final result of this job was exceptional and most important it was what Carol wanted. Not only was Carol pleased, but so were her neighbors. Many of them came over to compliment the job and to request an estimate of their driveways right then and there.

Occasionally challenges arise on paver restoration projects. Timelines and creating the perfect color were some of the issues that came up during this particular project. This is why it is so important to hire professional experts that are skilled and experienced in any issues that might arise. If anyone is up to these challenges, it’s knowledgeable team members of Perfect Paver Co.

We Care 2021 – Year In Review

In 2021, we started We Care.

In an effort to give back to our team members and the community, we decided that throughout the year a team member would choose a charity of their choice and share their personal story of why that cause was important to them, then we would highlight their story and cause for an entire month. For each five star review the team received during that team members’ month, we would donate $50. In addition, for Memorial Day, we decided to restore a local Veteran’s memorial and when Christmas time was around the corner, we decided to come together as a team and raise money for shoes to be donated to a drive for those in need.

None of this would be possible without our team members and our customers, so with that, thank you!

We were so grateful to work with so many amazing charities and share the stories of our team members, and we can’t wait to see what 2022 brings. If you’d like to check out our stories from 2021, check out the links below:
