What Our Customers Are Saying

Ron D.

We needed some cracks patched and a sealcoat applied to our older asphalt driveway. Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. got us scheduled quickly, showed up on time, and the work looks great.

Tina G.

06/03/2018

Our backyard was just an open lawn with no purpose. Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. designed and built a custom patio, added pathways, installed a fire pit area, and regraded everything for proper drainage. It’s now a space we use year-round. Couldn’t be happier!

Rachel T.

04/15/2019

We hired Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. to design and build a new patio and retaining wall in our backyard—and the results blew us away. The craftsmanship is top-tier, and the team was professional, on time, and cleaned up every day. Our outdoor space now looks like something out of a magazine!

Derrick S.

I couldn’t be happier with the landscaping transformation! From the initial consultation to the final planting, the crew at Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. listened to what we wanted and delivered beyond our expectations. Our front yard is now the talk of the neighborhood!

Lisa M.

After years of dealing with a soggy yard and basement water issues, Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. came in with a smart drainage solution. They installed a French drain system that works perfectly. No more standing water—and my lawn is finally healthy!

Carlos R.

We had a full yard renovation done—hardscaping, landscaping, and drainage—and I’m amazed at how smooth the process was. Every crew member from Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. was courteous, skilled, and clearly took pride in their work. Worth every penny!

Amanda B.

From start to finish, Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. made our dream of an outdoor kitchen and fire pit a reality. They handled the stonework beautifully and coordinated everything seamlessly. We’re now entertaining almost every weekend!

Mark V.

09/02/2022

We had a small drainage issue near our garage that other contractors overlooked. Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. diagnosed it in one visit and had it fixed within a few days. Simple, clean, and professional—the way it should be!

Kevin D.

05/05/2023

We decided to go with a paver driveway for more curb appeal, and Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. absolutely nailed it. The pattern and color match our home beautifully. Their attention to detail and customer service are second to none!

Jeff R.

07/15/2023

Our front yard was outdated and lacked any real curb appeal. Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. redesigned everything—landscaping, hardscape borders, and a gorgeous new concrete driveway. The result completely changed the look of our home. We get compliments weekly!

Stephen K.

10/02/2023

Our old concrete driveway was cracked and uneven. Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. tore it out and poured a brand-new one that looks fantastic. It’s smooth, level, and built to last. I couldn’t be happier with the results!

Kimberly J.

11/05/2023

From design to the final walk-through, Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. exceeded our expectations. They installed a new paver patio, upgraded our landscaping, and solved our drainage issues all at once. Everything ties together beautifully, and it’s now our favorite part of the house!

Troy L.

04/12/2024

We gave Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. a big project—completely transforming our backyard with walkways, lighting, a retaining wall, and new lawn installation. They handled it all from design to completion with professionalism and care. The finished product is nothing short of amazing!

Christopher H.

06/23/2024

Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. helped us design a custom paver driveway with a border and unique layout. The crew was professional and efficient, and the final product adds serious value and beauty to our home. Neighbors stop to ask who did it!

Heather M.

09/16/2024

We only needed a small walkway redone with pavers, and honestly, I wasn’t sure if a company as reputable as Lopez Construction & Paving Inc. would take on a smaller job. Not only did they take it, but they treated it with the same level of care and attention you’d expect from a much bigger project. It turned out perfect!
