 Paver Overlay on walkways and entrances

The walkway uses Cambridge Edgers and Ledgestone I slabs. 

The color is  (onyx natural)

"Integral" LED Lights were installed under the center lip of each step.

Paver Overlays on cement platforms

I expanded the dimensions of the platform by installing a retaining wall around it and extending the pavers out over them.

Below is how the entrance looked before the paver overlay.

This is how the walkway looked before it was widened and rerouted to enhance eye appeal and provide a more direct path to the driveway.

The flower boxes were made with electrical cable running through so that receptacles could be mounted in the wall.

Specialty Custom Painting

Designs

I like to give a ballpark figure first to see if the job is within the customer's budget or expectations.

Jobs that require extensive planning or designs may require a modest fee that will be deducted from the cost of the job if the customer wishes to proceed  with it.  I also work with my clients to reduce larger projects into affordable projects that can be managed easier over time.

Jobs requiring Time and Materials

Some jobs, especially repairs may be too difficult to estimate and can be negotiated under a time and materials basis.  I prefer to let customers know up front what they can expect to pay.   The time and materials method allows me an option when I cannot.  

Deposits 

For larger projects, I may ask for a deposit.  State law sets a maximum of no more than one third the total job cost that can be asked as a deposit.  Usually, I will request that the customer pay for materials upon delivery to the job site.  For some jobs, I may work out a payment plan using draws prior to starting the work.
