At Bayside Pavers, we install the Melville™ Curb to Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute (ICPI) standards, ensuring a flawless, lasting result. Here’s how we do it:

Site Preparation: We excavate 4-6 inches deep, accounting for soil type—common Bay Area clay requires extra care for drainage.

Base Layer: A compacted gravel base (Class II road base) provides stability and prevents settling, critical for the region’s seismic activity.

Placement: Each curbstone is set level, with tight joints, and secured with adhesive or mortar if needed for slopes or heavy traffic areas.

Finishing: Polymeric sand fills joints, locking the curb in place while allowing flexibility—a must for Bay Area weather shifts.

Quality Assurance: Our ICPI-certified team inspects every detail, ensuring your curb meets structural and aesthetic standards.

This meticulous process guarantees a curb that’s as durable as it is beautiful, tailored to your property’s unique needs.

Outdoor Kitchen Design Hardscaping with Concrete Patio Pavers

An outdoor kitchen is an excellent addition to your outdoor living space that can be the perfect place to spend those warm summer nights with family and friends relaxing and enjoying great food and conversation.In the California Bay area, a well designed outdoor kitchen can help you enjoy preparing meals al fresco practically all year long!

At its best, your outdoor kitchen should be as beautiful and functional as your indoor kitchen. Whether you choose to create a simple kitchen with a dining area and a grill, or an elaborate fully fitted outdoor kitchen with built-in appliances, counter space for food prep, a smoker or even a wood burning pizza oven, and relaxing seating, it’s really up to your creative vision and budget.

Working with a professional can help you to create the ideal design based on your needs and existing landscaping, as well as choosing the proper materials and ensuring the highest quality construction. Here are some tips to get you thinking about your kitchen project.

START WITH A GOOD OUTDOOR KITCHEN DESIGN: WORK FROM THE GROUND UP

Before you begin, you’ll need to design a floor plan. Think about your flooring. It’s the foundation on which the rest of your kitchen will rest. It’s also a major element in the aesthetics of your design. An excellent flooring option is concrete pavers. They’re available in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, textures, and colors. They are a durable material that can take the weight of any hardscaping, like grill surrounds, countertops and islands.

Remember, you’re building outside so you want a material that can stand up to the rainy, Bay area weather and offers a non-slip safe surface to walk on and work on. Concrete pavers can take plenty of traffic and stand up to everyday use. It’s a material that will stand up to grease spills and dropped foods, and if it is ever damaged, fixing the surface is as easy as popping out the damaged tile and replacing it with a new one.

CHOOSE YOUR LOCATION WITH CARE

Consider any existing hardscaping when choosing the location for your outdoor kitchen. Think about how you’ll use the space. You can purchase stakes and string and mark the area you’re considering for your kitchen. This can help you to visualize the size of the space and can help you to determine how many features you can fit into the available space.

Take into consideration the placement of items like the grill so that smoke doesn’t blow into your home. Will you need access to your indoor kitchen, or will you have the space for an outdoor refrigerator? Finally, consider the overall flow of your outdoor space and any future expansion, for example, adding a concrete paver and river stone walkway to an outdoor fireplace and seating area.

Also, take into account the infrastructure you’ll need. For example, a wet sink can be a great amenity when it comes to time to clean up. You’ll also want access to electricity for the margarita blender and outdoor lighting! The wiring and plumbing can be placed under concrete pavers. If there is ever a problem, you’ll need to remove the pavers over the utilities, unlike a poured concrete patio which would require a jackhammer to access the lines.

CREATE PLENTY OF WORKSPACE IN YOUR OUTDOOR KITCHEN

Like your indoor kitchen, you’ll want plenty of workspace, counter space and storage to keep your kitchen clutter-free. Make sure the materials you choose are waterproof and can stand up to the weather year round. Consider materials like stainless steel and stone or concrete countertops. Concrete pavers are an excellent material for covering not only the floor but even the grill surround or counter. Creating a long curved countertop with seating is easy using the same pavers as the flooring or incorporating a complementary color or texture.

Concrete pavers are the perfect solution for your outdoor kitchen. They’re a durable, beautiful and affordable way to create the perfect environment for enjoying your outdoor space with family and friends.

If you’re thinking about adding an outdoor kitchen to your home, give the experts at Bayside Pavers a call. We can help you design the perfect outdoor space to compliment your homes existing design.

Top 10 Reasons Why Using Pavers Around Your Pool Is A Great Idea

Nothing beats relaxing by the pool on a hot day in the California Bay Area. Installing a beautiful pool in your backyard is pretty exciting, and very labor intensive. While working with your landscape architect, contractor or design-build professional, the topic of hardscaping your pool surround, and patio will inevitably come up. Odds are your landscape professional will offer you several choices for materials like wood decking, stamped concrete, and concrete pavers.

There’s a bit of a debate in the hardscaping industry as to which of these materials are the best choice for around the pool. Here at Bayside, we believe that when you’re hardscaping the pool area, professionally installed pavers are always the best choice! Here are the top ten reasons why.

THEY WILL LAST A LIFETIME

When professionally installed, nothing can outlast high-quality pavers. They’re incredibly durable; in fact, no other material can withstand the wear and tear of daily use better. Wood can splinter and needs annual staining or painting, concrete slabs can crack, and natural stone can chip, but professionally installed pavers can last a lifetime.

THEY’RE PERFECT FOR AN OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENT

Here in the Bay area, you pool decking is subject to many factors that can contribute to wear and breakage like extreme weather, heat, drastic temperature changes, sunlight and of course water. Lesser materials can fade or fail, but color-through pavers won’t wear or fade even with constant exposure to the elements.

FAST, EASY INSTALLATION

A professional installer can prepare the site and install your decking in days, not weeks like other materials. Once placed, you can begin to enjoy your pool the day your decking is complete. Concrete can take days or even weeks to cure, and stained wood decking can’t be walked on for at least 48 hours after the last coat!

EASY REPAIR

When professionally installed, pavers can last a lifetime. However, accidents happen and a paver may get damaged. Luckily, because they are individually interlocking elements, it’s fast and easy to remove and replace a damaged paver.

THEY’RE SAFE

Tile or stone can be slippery when wet. Because of their texture, pavers are one of the safest alternatives for pool decking.

THEY ARE FLEXIBLE

Pavers are available in some textures, and sizes and can mimic natural stone. They can be arranged in a variety of patterns or designs. This gives you the flexibility to create a look that fits in perfectly with the rest of your landscaping and can meet your aesthetic needs.

PAVERS ARE AFFORDABLE

Installing a new pool is expensive. Pavers are an affordable option that can keep your project on budget. They rival the cost of stamped concrete or wood but are a much more durable, lower maintenance, affordable alternative.

PAVERS CAN BRING NEW LIFE TO AN OLD SPACE

Sometimes it’s time to renew or replace your existing pool decking, for example, if your old concrete decking is cracked and faded. Using a thin profile paver to create a layer on top of your existing decking can bring your pool area back to life.

PAVERS CAN BE MADE FROM A VARIETY OF STONES

Just because you’ve chosen to use pavers doesn’t mean you can’t have the look of natural stone. They can be constructed from a wide variety of stone allowing you to bring the sophistication and style of natural stone to your outdoor space affordably.

PAVERS ARE BEAUTIFUL

The most compelling reason to choose pavers for your pool surround is simply that they’re beautiful! They come in a wide variety of colors, textures, styles, and sizes. You can use pavers to create intricate designs that can bring a sophisticated and elegant look to your landscape, creating a beautiful outdoor environment that the whole family can enjoy.

Professionally installed pool deck pavers can improve the look and add value to your California Bay Area home. If you’d like to learn more about the benefits of using pavers around your pool, give Bayside Pavers a call and ask for a FREE ESTIMATE.

Why Use Driveway Pavers?

We are often asked, “Why choose driveway pavers over other materials?” The answer lies in their unique combination of durability and aesthetic appeal. Driveway pavers offer a robust alternative to traditional concrete or asphalt surfaces. Their strength surpasses that of typical driveway materials, enabling them to withstand the heavy load of vehicles more effectively. As an experienced driveway paver installer in Concord, we know that the interlocking design of pavers allows them to adapt to temperature fluctuations, providing a flexible yet durable surface. This flexibility means they can adjust slightly as temperatures change, reducing the likelihood of cracking. As a result, driveway pavers maintain their aesthetic appeal and functionality through various seasons, ensuring a consistently attractive driveway year after year.

Driveway Pavers

Pavers Are Durable!

Driveway pavers offer four times the load-bearing capacity of concrete or asphalt. Their flexibility allows them to move with any shifting of the earth, and if a paver or even a section of pavers is damaged by a spill, it can be easily replaced by just removing the damaged pavers and replacing them with new ones. When concrete or asphalt cracks, patching and repairs can be costly, and your driveway will never look exactly the same again.

Add Value to Your Home

Pavers can be made from stone, brick or concrete, come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and textures, which means you can create the exact look that’s perfect for you! Adding a paver driveway can up your curb appeal like no other material and can give your home a unique look unlike any other. Paver driveways are smooth, comfortable, and easy to drive on, and they’ll last for decades!

Stronger than Concrete

Properly installed interlocking driveway pavers offer up to four times the load-bearing strength of poured concrete, or asphalt, up to 8000 psi! Along with their superior load-bearing capacity, concrete pavers are aesthetically beautiful, flexible regarding design, and available in a wide range of colors, styles, sizes, and shapes to meet any need. They’re a low-maintenance surface that, when properly installed, can last for decades!

What Kind of Pavers do we Use to Build Your Driveway?

At Bayside Pavers, we use top-notch pavers so you get a high-quality driveway that is built to last. We want to make sure that your driveway can withstand frequent foot and car traffic while also enhancing the visual appeal of your property. So, our team offers the following paver options:

  • Permeable Pavers: This paver option creates a driveway that imitates the way the ground absorbs water. We install water-permeable pavers with different sizes of stone or aggregate underneath to improve stormwater drainage. This material will prevent water from gathering on your new feature.
  • Porcelain Pavers: Our porcelain pavers will give you a stunning, contemporary driveway that can perfectly complement your outdoor living space. These pavers can look like wood or stone and come in different sizes, like planks and large modular shapes, to make your driveway look modern and beautiful! Our porcelain pavers are also easy to install and exceptionally durable!
  • Interlocking Pavers: These are traditional pavers that fit together like a puzzle and can come in various shapes, sizes, and colors. Plus, we can arrange them in eye-catching patterns to turn your new driveway into a unique focal point!

Why Choose A Paver Driveway?

Variety of Materials

Pavers can come in different materials: concrete, clay, and natural stone. Each has its own benefits, can greatly change the look of your driveway, and comes in different pricing ranges.

Concrete pavers, for example, are generally the cheapest material choice. You should be careful to seek out quality concrete pavers, as cheaper varieties are prone to chipping.

Clay brick pavers are the middle-man in terms of cost and can weather away more steadily than the other options. However, brick has a certain aesthetic quality that you can’t replicate very well with the other two options.

Natural stone, on the other hand, is the most expensive choice but is incredibly durable and beautiful.

Many Shapes and Sizes

No matter which type of material you choose, you can find pavers in any kind of shape or size imaginable. Most often they are in a square or rectangular shape, but you can also find some in circular shapes or even shapes that don’t have a name.

Most often, they are in a square or rectangular shape, but you can also find some in circular shapes or even more freeform shapes that don’t have a name.

Intricate Patterns

Because pavers come in so many different shapes and sizes, you can create a nearly infinite amount of styles and patterns to give your driveway its own special and unique look.

You can create a style that suits your home perfectly or you can take inspiration from the patterns that other homeowners have come up with. Speaking with your installation company could help in choosing the right kind of pattern for your home.

Eco-Friendly Option

A paver driveway is a great choice for anyone who is environmentally minded. You can choose to have permeable pavers installed which allow water to soak in between the gaps of the rock or clay.

Connect Your Outdoor Living

Paver stones aren’t just for your driveway. They’re an essential part of your home’s landscape design and garden décor. Adding pathways to connect the various outdoor spaces of your home can create cohesion in your landscape design.

LOW MAINTENANCE

Because of its high durability, these kinds of driveways have little to no maintenance unlike other types of driveways which require a lot of work to keep them looking good.

To make matters even easier, you can use a pavers sealer to help stop any staining from oil or rubber. With the use of this sealer, all you need is a hose and running water to clean up any spills.

EASY TO REPAIR

If, however, there is a crack or some other type of damage done to your driveway, repairing that damage is incredibly easy. Instead of needing to put on an ugly patch over the crack or digging up large sections in order to fix the problem, pavers are much easier.

Because this kind of driveway is made up of smaller parts, you only need to pull up those particular areas and then lay down new pavers in order to fix the damage. This makes it much more cost-effective and easier. You can even do the fixes yourself.

NO CURING PERIOD

Asphalt and poured concrete driveways often have a long curing period in which you will not be able to use the area until that period is finished. With pavers, however, there is no wait time. Once the stone or clay is in place, you are able to use the driveway with no problems whatsoever.

MORE TRACTION

The small bits of rock or bricks that make up a paver driveway allows for you to have a lot more traction underneath your tires than a smooth concrete driveway. This is especially important in places that have a lot of rainfall or snowy winters.

Pavers provide an extra bit of security to your driveway and ensure that you don’t need to worry about your wheels slipping as easily during stormy weather.

LONG LIFESPAN

Typically the lifespan of a driveway made of pavers can last up to 20 or more years. This kind of longevity relies on the driveway being installed correctly, however. To ensure that you get the most out of your driveway, get into contact with a professional pavers installation company.

Choosing The Right Material For Your Pavers

Today, you have a wide range of styles, colors, textures, and sizes when it comes to driveway pavers. Choosing the right paver depends on several factors. You need to look at your home’s exterior style, color scheme, and any existing hardscaping in your yard to choose a complementary or contrasting paver style for your driveway.  With pavers, you can mix colors and textures to create striking patterns or choose the perfect color to complement your home’s style. Here are four popular options of driveway pavers to help you create the ideal look for your home.

COBBLESTONE PAVERS

Cobblestone pavers are a luxurious classic look that is both traditional and rustic. If you live in an older home, like a beautiful Victorian, or a rustic modern cabin, cobblestones turn back the hands of time and give your home an elegant look and feel. They showcase your personal style and sophistication, can be stained any color you choose, and incredibly durable and practically maintenance-free.

As a bonus, if you’re over 60, walking on cobblestones has been shown to drop your blood pressure and improve your balance. With their beautiful appearance and surprising health benefits, cobblestone pavers are an excellent choice.

CONCRETE PAVERS

If you want durability and longevity, concrete pavers are a great choice. Concrete is one of the most popular driveway pavers for a good reason, they’re flexible, versatile, and cost-effective. Pressed concrete pavers offer homeowners a wide range of patterns, and they can be painted or stained, textured or smooth. With a wide variety of colors, sizes, shapes, and textures available, you can find a concrete driveway paver to fit any budget.

BRICK PAVERS

Brick pavers are elegant and offer a polished and finished luxurious look for your home. In fact, they are one of the most popular choices for Easy Bay homeowners. They’re so popular that many pavers are cast in a brick style. Brick is the symbol of craftsmanship, so a brick paver driveway gives you a beautiful finished look.

In terms of paver materials, brick is one of the most durable out there. Brick pavers last for years, throughout the seasonal changes. With minimal maintenance and occasional repairs, a brick paver driveway will look great and last a lifetime.

RUBBER PAVERS

Today, we’re all becoming more environmentally conscious, and so are manufacturers. If you’re seeking an environmentally friendly material, rubber pavers are a great choice. Rubber pavers are made from recycled car tires. They help reduce the number of car tires tossed into landfills by more than 300 million each year! They’re not only a socially responsible choice, but they also are durable, look great, and offer excellent performance. When you decide to purchase rubber pavers, you’re not only getting a superior product, you’re contributing to the planet by lowering your carbon footprint. If you’re trying to live a green-lifestyle, give rubber pavers a serious look.

The Downside To A Paver Driveway Is Minimal

The only real downside to concrete pavers is the initial paver driveway cost in the Bay Area. A professionally installed concrete paver driveway can cost more to install than poured concrete. That’s because the installation process requires proper site preparation which includes excavation, laying a substrate of gravel and compacting, placing a weed barrier, adding a layer of sand and the placing each stone by hand.


However, while the upfront cost can be higher, the fact that concrete pavers can last 30 years or more, are easier to maintain and repair, are more environmentally friendly and can increase the value of your home, more than offset the higher initial cost.

A Unique Aesthetic To Match Your Home

A Nod To The Days Of Cobblestone

It’s interesting how your outdoor paver pattern connects to your indoor activity. If you enjoy sitting by the fireplace with a cup of tea and a Tolstoy novel, a cobblestone driveway can reflect your vintage sensibilities.

A paver pattern can be used to create this effect easily. While you obviously can’t drive your car over cobblestone every day, using gray stones on your driveway is a perfect way to mimic this theme.

It works especially well if you combine it with other elements of your decor. Things like vintage torchlights and an older looking wooden doorway can really complete the effect. Overall, it’s vital to consider the various ways your driveway can become cohesive.

Match Your Home’s Exterior

Along with the matching of an overall aesthetic, there are plenty of other ways to create a cohesive look using a paver pattern driveway. If you have a home made of brick or other types of stone, it’s particularly true.  It isn’t hard to find material that matches the pattern on your house. Putting it in your driveway, particularly if it’s the same color, is a vital part of creating the cohesive look you want.

Think about it as a form of magical realism. With a home that matches the color of your paving stones, you have the effect of a magical plant. Your home will appear to be sprouting from the Earth in a surreal yet wonderful way. It’s the perfect choice for the artistically minded person looking to reflect their personality. While most of us will never have a home designed in the style of Antonio Gaudi, we can still embrace the sense of wonder we seek.

Your home is a place to be inspired. Let your paver pattern driveway help you on the road to that feeling.

7 Misconceptions About Concrete Pavers – Color, Cost And More

Here at Bayside Pavers we always try to work with our Bay Area customers to help them to understand all of their options when it comes to creating the perfect outdoor living space to fit their family’s needs and lifestyle. When considering a new patio, walkway or driveway, it’s important to understand all of your options when it comes to design, features, materials, and color choices. After years of listening to our customer’s concerns, we’ve learned that there are many common misconceptions about concrete pavers that we’d like to address.

Here are seven common misconceptions about concrete pavers that you should be aware of when researching hardscaping materials for your Bay Area California home.

1 – PAVERS ARE TOO EXPENSIVE

While the initial cost of installation can be higher than other materials, in the end, concrete pavers are actually a more cost-effective and aesthetically pleasing option. Concrete pavers are more durable and beautiful option than other options like poured concrete, or in the case of a driveway, blacktop. Blacktop will deteriorate over time and poured concrete can crack, requiring costly repairs. Concrete pavers need less frequent repair, and when they do, repairs are easier. Over the long-term, concrete pavers are the true cost-effective solution. And you’ll love the way they look!

2 – PAVERS DON’T LAST

The fact is, concrete pavers are a durable, flexible material that is up to three times stronger than a poured concrete slab. Correctly installed interlocking concrete pavers move and flex as the ground does. When professionally installed, high-quality concrete pavers can last 30 to 40 years with no significant issues.

3 – PAVERS ARE DIFFICULT TO REPAIR

This has been a concern for many of our customers over the years. The fact is, unlike hardscape which can need to be repaired in large section when it fails, or must be matched in order to patch repair, concrete pavers can be “spot repaired.” This means that the damaged paver can simply be removed and replaced. In fact, it’s so easy that most homeowners can perform the repair themselves without the need of a professional. Concrete pavers are durable, reliable and resilient. They absorb pressure, weight and force differently than other materials and as a result are less susceptible to damage in the first place.

4 – CONCRETE PAVERS FADE AS THEY AGE

In this case, the old saying “you get what you pay for” is true. While there are plenty of cheap, inferior quality bargain pavers available, that are susceptible to fading, chipping and cracking. Always invest in the highest quality paver you can afford. Make sure any paver you purchase is “colored through.” Pavers that are colored throughout will not fade. Ever.

5 – CONCRETE PAVERS PROMOTE WEED GROWTH

This seems to be a persistent belief, but it’s entirely not true. Any exterior hardscape joints have the potential for weed growth, but you shouldn’t expect to see any more weeds in a paver installation than you would with any other material. Often, weeds thriving on a hardscape are a result of seeds falling on top of the material and germinating where they land. The truth is, if your pavers are properly installed by a professional installer using polymeric sand you should see less weed growth than with other materials.

6 – PAVERS WILL HEAVE WITH WEATHER CHANGES

This is a common complaint from homeowners who have done the installation themselves and often cut corners. Professional installation eliminates any slipping or heaving. The secret is proper preparation before installation. A professional landscaper will excavate, grade, install and compact the sub-grade, add a geotextile layer to inhibit weed growth. They will then prepare the base layer and again compact, perform sand prep, lay the pavers, perform a final compaction and then finish with polymeric sand. When professionally installed, concrete pavers will not heave, period!

7 – CONCRETE PAVERS OFFER LIMITED CHOICES

The truth is, pavers come in hundreds of different combinations of colors, sizes, thicknesses, styles, patterns, and textures. No matter what your taste, aesthetic and home design, pavers are available in a range of colors from neutral and earth tones, to reds and terracotta. To further personalize your look you can choose from a variety of styles including brick, tile, antique, cobble, weathered stone and flagstone.

5 Reasons Why People Love Artificial Grass

Artificial grass is more popular than ever before. Thanks to advances in development, it looks incredibly authentic — but of course, it’s much easier to care for than the real thing.

In addition to sprucing up your front and back yards, artificial turf is also a wonderful solution when it comes to housebreaking your pets.

What other benefits does artificial grass have to offer?

Read on to find out five of the most popular reasons why so many people love it.

1. IT SAVES YOU UPKEEP COSTS

Did you know that the average professional lawn mowing service can cost up to $80 per visit? If you get your lawn mowed once a week, that’s a staggering cost of $4,160 per year.

Wouldn’t you rather be using that money to take a vacation or buy yourself a fabulous new wardrobe?

We thought so.

Of course, the upkeep cost of artificial grass is next to nothing. Obviously, you won’t need to water it, and most professional installation companies will offer you a warranty. That means that even if something does go wrong with your new grass, you won’t be responsible for covering the cost of fixing it.

Plus, you won’t have to fertilize or mow it, either — which can save you serious money and ensure that pets or children aren’t harmed by potentially dangerous chemicals in the fertilizer.

2. IT’S TOUGH

Especially if you have small children (or just like to host a lot of parties in your backyard) you need grass that can handle all of the paces you put it through.

Interestingly enough, artificial grass is actually much more durable than nature’s version.

This is incredibly helpful when it comes to preserving the look of your lawn (especially if you’re using your grass to make a great impression on clients outside of your office.)

Additionally, if you live in an area that’s prone to storms, you don’t want to have to worry about the look of trampled or damaged grass cramping your style. In addition to being durable, artificial turf also means less mess for you to clean up. Think about it: if there’s no mud and dirt underneath it, that’s far fewer animal paw prints you have to scrub off your kitchen floor.

So, if it’s not impacted by the rain like natural grass, you may be wondering how to keep it clean. This, too, is easy. All you need to do is hose it down, or simply spray it with a natural cleaning product for best results.

3. IT’S BETTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

We know what you’re thinking: you really expect me to believe that fake grass is better than real grass?

When it comes to your household’s carbon footprint, absolutely.

We’ve already touched on the cost-saving benefits of artificial turf. But those benefits don’t just apply to your wallet. They also help Mother Earth.

Think about it: those lawn maintenance tasks, like mowing the lawn and running your sprinklers for several hours every week? They’re not exactly doing too much to decrease your impact on the environment.

Last time we checked, leaf blowers weren’t great for your neighborhood’s air quality. Plus, your neighbors probably aren’t huge fans of being woken up by the ear-shattering sound of your leaf blower on a Saturday morning.

Additionally, artificial turf is able to be recycled.

Many companies work with indoor and outdoor sports fields to either donate their unused grass or purchase grass that can be made as good as new.

4. IT KEEPS KIDS SAFER WHEN PLAYING

So, your children have been begging you to buy them a swing set for years. This Christmas, you finally gave in.

You and your partner had more arguments than you’d care to admit to while figuring out how to set it up, but in the end, the kids are happy.

However, are they safe?

Lots of parents think that installing smooth pebbles or just relying on the natural grass underneath a children’s swing set will provide adequate cushioning in case of a tumble.

However, the opposite is usually the case. Plus, because of the mud underneath the grass, we’re willing to bet that your children will track in some serious dirt once they’re finished playing for the day.

Luckily, artificial turn provides an excellent cushion, ensuring that your kids are both safe and clean when they frolic in your backyard.

5. IT BOOSTS YOUR HOME’S CURB APPEAL

Thinking of putting your house on the market?

Especially in today’s ultra-competitive real estate market, you know that curb appeal is incredibly important. If your grass is withered, dead, patchy, or just not well-maintained, homeowners aren’t exactly going to come running to your property.

But let’s be real: when you’re trying to find a buyer, tour homes for your family to move into, and job hunt in a new city? Yeah. Mowing and mulching your front lawn isn’t at the top of your priority list.

With artificial grass, it doesn’t have to be.

Your home will look like you’ve constantly freshly mowed your lawn — even if you’re trying to sell your home during the colder months.

Plus, buyers will certainly be drawn to the convenience of moving into a home that will allow them to save both time and money because of artificial turf.

READY TO GET ARTIFICIAL GRASS INSTALLED IN YOUR YARD?

Now that you know just a few of the ways that artificial grass can make your life easier, increase your curb appeal, and save you serious time, how else can you improve the look of your home?

In addition to helping you to install artificial turf, we also offer services for driveway paving and walkway installation.

Understanding Retaining Wall Construction and Importance

Are you familiar with what a retaining wall is and how it protects your property?

Although you might have seen a retaining wall in the past, you may not know how it is built and the important role it plays in supporting your land. But besides the benefits of a retaining wall to your surrounding land, it can also be a beautiful outdoor feature of your home.

Read on to learn more about retaining wall construction and the safety it can provide you and your family.

WHAT RETAINING WALLS DO

A retaining wall prevents soil and other vegetation from collapsing. It can also help put a stop to the land eroding away. It does this by supporting the soil and vegetation behind them with sturdy materials like concrete and brick.

Retaining walls help keep you and your family safe while enjoying being outside of your home.

But retaining walls don’t just provide support for your soil and vegetation. They can also be a unique addition to your yard or garden. For example, you can use beautiful bricks to build your retaining wall as a backdrop for your outdoor kitchen or another area.

A retaining wall can also help you to extend your yard by allowing you to make use of steep areas you may not be able to use without them.

This way you are receiving the benefit of supporting your yard or soil, while also enjoying the aesthetic characteristic of a retaining wall.

USE OF STURDY MATERIALS

When you build a retaining wall, it’s important to have a strong base and use sturdy materials.

The base should be dug out several inches below where the wall begin being built. Since it’s important to have a solid base, you can hard-pack sand or dirt. But using gravel is a good way to have the support you want.

After you have a strong base, your retaining wall construction should include bricks or stones. This is because these are sturdy materials that hold up well to extreme weather conditions.

Brick and stone are better choices than timber logs because they require less maintenance and hold up better over time. Timber is prone to moisture and wood-rot, as well as infestation by pests like termites.

WRAPPING UP: RETAINING WALL CONSTRUCTION MATTERS

A retaining wall built with brick or other stone is a great way to support your land while also being a unique addition to the area outside of your home.

To make the most of your retaining wall, it’s important for it to have a solid foundation and be well-built with strong materials. You should also choose materials that will work well with other aspects of the surrounding area of your wall.

At Bayside Pavers, our team offers custom paving solutions for a wide variety of projects, including retaining walls. Since opening in 2009, we have built a solid reputation for our quality and completing our projects on time. We also offer a 5-year warranty on our work.

Why Fire Pits Are Perfect for Gathering and Relaxing

Humans and the element of fire have a long history. In fact, humans discovered fire no earlier than 700,000 years ago and no later than 120,000 years ago, so we are talking about a deep connection here. No wonder fire pits always make us feel comfortable and relaxed.

But still, hundreds of thousands of years have passed and we have managed to get unfamiliar with many of our primitive instincts. How could fire pits still feel like a perfect idea for gatherings with our loved ones?

Let’s take a look at five modern-day reasons along with design ideas to give you some extra inspiration!

1. FIRE PITS ARE GREAT FOR ALMOST ANY SEASON

Just think about it. A chilly autumn afternoon, a summer night, or an evening in April. Except for the winter, a fire pit can be the perfect gathering area for you, your friends and your family. Just sitting next to the fire creates a warm feeling of comfort and happiness.

Picture this: You and your loved ones in the backyard having a conversation over drinks and spending some quality time together. Great image, right?

Now picture all of you doing the same thing only this time you are sitting around a fire pit. The image instantly gets friendlier and cozier, especially when the temperature is not that high.

For this great scenario, you might want to consider a small, rustic, camp-like fire pit embedded into a stone patio. Add some wooden furniture around it and get ready for some great conversation around the fire.

2. THEY WORK GREAT WITH POOLS

The next backyard trend after fire pits would be installing an in-ground swimming pool. Just think about it. There are 10.6 million swimming pools in the US.

However, the weather can be really unpredictable sometimes, and getting out of your pool can be a real struggle.

A fire burning in your fire pit, though, sounds like a great source of heat when you actually need some warmth or even as a perfect place for your company to sit by while you are taking a refreshing dip.

For a fire pit by the pool, you may want to look for a rectangular, minimalistic design. It will certainly make your yard look like a million bucks.

3. THEY ARE ELEGANT

Like it or not, like them or not, fire pits add value to your property. Even if you are not planning to spend a lot of time in your home, a fire pit will give potential buyers one more reason to buy it when the time comes.

You see, it will not only make them create images of themselves by the fire. You will also have saved them the installation cost. Because trust us. Most people do want a fire pit in their backyard.

The possibilities are literally endless. Make sure you go for a choice that most people will find attractive in case you want to sell your property later. A safe option is always a brick fire pit. Everybody loves those.

4. THEY WORK AS A BACKYARD’S LANDMARK

Every space, open-air or not, needs a landmark based on which you will actually build the overall setting. A fire pit can work as an amazing landmark to help you figure out your backyard’s arrangement.

Do you have trouble deciding where to put your outdoor furniture? You can do it by taking a look at how it works around your fire pit. An installation like this works as a great centerpiece to define any space.

5. GOOD FOR GRILLING

Not all fire pits can work as some kind of barbecue alternatives. However, these are some solutions that will allow you to melt marshmallows or maybe grill a couple of ribs.

But you want to keep in mind that a fire pit is neither as powerful nor as convenient as a regular grill. Moreover, if you are a sophisticated griller, using it as your basic barbecue equipment is out of the question but they can always double as an outdoor barbecue.

A fossil stone fire pit made of concrete blocks will get you into the mood for some summer night grilling.

How To Create The Ultimate Outdoor Kitchen

Are you looking for a unique way to entertain your house guests?

An outdoor kitchen is a great way to extend your home outside while also creating a fun atmosphere for your family and friends.

According to a 2014 study by Houzz on spring landscaping trends, 14 percent of those who undertook a landscaping project spent money on an outdoor kitchen.

It’s a distinct feature of a home that can set it apart from others in your area.

Read on to learn how a Santa Clara County paver contractor can help you create the ultimate outdoor kitchen.

CHOOSE QUALITY KITCHEN FLOOR MATERIALS

Your paver contractor will be able to give you a wide range of outdoor kitchen flooring options that best fit your unique needs.

Creating the ultimate kitchen outdoors will include choosing many different appliances. These include things like refrigerators, ranges, grills and more.

These appliances can be quite large. This makes it important that you choose floor materials that can withstand their weight and size.

You must also consider different outdoor weather conditions. This includes how much sunlight your outdoor kitchen area will get and changes of season.

Your paver contractor will make recommendations for your outdoor kitchen based on what you want and where you live.

CREATE A UNIQUE COLOR SCHEME

Your Santa Clara County paver contractor can help you create a unique color scheme. When it comes to pavers, there are many different options.

These include textured bricks or stones in hundreds of different colors and shades. These pavers will also be used along with backsplashes and countertops to make your kitchen complete.

The color combination you choose can help set the tone for your outdoor kitchen. You may want a more subtle, natural environment. Or you may opt for bolder, more modern colors.

An experienced paver contractor will discuss your options and help bring your dream design to life.

BUILD A KITCHEN THAT FLOWS

To make the most of your outdoor kitchen, you need a design that flows with the rest of your backyard.

Is your outdoor kitchen part of a bigger entertaining space, inclusive of a bar or pool area? Is it part of a new home construction or a renovation?

These are important questions to consider before your outdoor kitchen construction begins. Otherwise, you risk your outdoor kitchen not having the natural flow you desire.

Your contractor will talk to you about how your kitchen fits with your home. This will help you to design a kitchen that flows and that is inviting as you entertain your guests.

Why You Need To Use Pavers Instead of Concrete

Are you looking for a material for your driveway, patio or walkway around your home?

The surroundings of your home should reflect your personal taste while being long-lasting and cost-effective.

For many years, people have chosen concrete to build driveways. And yet, nowadays pavers have become the best choice for many customers for many reasons.

Keep reading to find out why you should use pavers from San Mateo County Paver Contractor for your walkway, patio or driveway.

VERSATILE PAVING TILES

Do you want your driveway to connect with some steps that lead to your front door?

Or maybe, you want a small wall to corner off your flower bed?

Vertical features, such as pillars and walls are difficult to blend in with a concrete driveway. In contrast, pavers allow your decorative wall or steps to fit nicely.

If you want to build a walkway or a porch to complement your driveway, then it can be installed before or after your driveway without a problem.

COST EFFECTIVE

If you hire a professional from San Mateo County Paver Contractor to install your pavers, it will last longer and be low maintenance.

Accidents happen, and stains and imperfections are permanent on concrete. If the concrete base shifts, the cracks that emerge are visible to anyone approaching your home. Fixing a concrete driveway is very costly.

However, if damage to your pavers happens there are many cost-effective and simple solutions to make it appear brand-new once again. If you spill oil, you can even flip over one of the paving stones and nobody will know.

And if after some years you notice a crack in one of the paving stone, you can just replace the single stone rather than the entire driveway.

A DESIGN TO FIT YOU

There are hundreds of surface finishes, colors, designs, and shapes of pavers. Whether you’re looking for the historical European city appearance or the modern Umbriano finish, there is always a design to suit every home.

And don’t worry about losing the color over time, with pavers the surface treatments ensure that the colors last years after installation.

PICK YOUR PRICE

Unlike concrete and other materials for driveways, pavers come at many different prices. This means whether you are on a tight budget or have money to spare, you can find the right pavers to fit your price range.

Although, keep in mind you get what you pay for. Pavers with the most advanced technology are likely to last much longer than the standard product.

CHOOSE SAN MATEO COUNTY PAVER CONTRACTOR FOR YOUR PAVERS

There are many considerations and difficult decisions when investing in your home and its surroundings.

However, choosing the material to build your driveway is a simple choice because of the overwhelming benefits of pavers over concrete.

Whether you value a unique and colorful appearance or a functional and long-lasting material, pavers are always the best option for your driveway or pathway.

Why You Shouldn’t Neglect A Retaining Wall

A retaining wall is more than just a landscape design. It protects your home and yard from earth and water. A retaining wall can also provide terracing and landscaping beds. It’s most important for the structure and integrity of your property.

Drainage, erosion, and landscaping are all design factors that your Napa County Paver Contractor will discuss with you upon evaluation of your retaining wall.

Learn more about retaining walls and why they’re so important below.

MANAGE WATER RUNOFF/DRAINAGE

Retaining walls can fail. This generally happens with the build-up of pressure from behind the wall. This pressure is caused by groundwater or soil accumulation when the force of groundwater exceeds the resisting force of the wall.

It’s important that your retaining wall is constructed to remove the groundwater that can collect behind the wall with gravel drainage. You can also have a pipe installed behind the wall. This will divert the water to a lower spot beyond the wall structure.

CONTROL DOWNHILL EROSION

If your home or yard sits on a slope, maintaining your retaining wall is especially important. A properly installed wall can prevent erosion materials. These are materials such as soil, trees, and rocks from sliding, which can cause serious problems for your home.

If you live in an earthquake zone, you might consider fault lines around your property. Even if erosion isn’t an issue now, it could be under the right catastrophic conditions.

A Napa County Paver Contractor can provide you peace of mind and ensure the stability of your retaining wall.

PROTECT YOUR HOME’S FOUNDATION WITH A NAPA COUNTY PAVER CONTRACTOR

A retaining wall will maintain erosion around your home’s foundation, too. If you live on a hill there’s a chance that the soil could wash away around a downhill foundation. It can also cause compaction with an uphill foundation which will prevent water and other materials from properly draining away from the wall.

A well-built and maintained retainer wall is one of the most important landscaping features to consider for your home’s safety.

LANDSCAPE DESIGN

Considering a terraced design creates usable land space for gardening or other landscaping needs. A retaining wall from your Napa County Paver Contractor can also highlight your current landscape designs. It will add privacy and screen views of unsightly areas around your home.

A retaining wall can be an aesthetic and functional space in your yard with built-in seating and other features, too. Discuss the design of your retaining wall with your contractor before the work gets underway to ensure all details are considered.

DON’T NEGLECT YOUR RETAINING WALL

Make sure to maintain your retaining wall to ensure the best safety for your home and family. Add dimension to your home and landscape and expand usable space that’s already in your yard.

Outdoor tips that up your exterior’s attractiveness while being eco-conscious include:

  • Mulching

We suggest you look into interlocking paver driveways, and you’ll find you’re not the first.

  • Easier, faster water runoff
  • Fewer pollutants
  • Lower phosphorus and nitrogen
