DPG Pavers and Design

We have had issues with our driveway pavers for ten years. We have had them repaired 4 times by other companies. Our contractor Daniel Curtis recommended DPG to us as he has worked with them many times and felt they would take care of our situation. We have been so impressed with this team from the first visit with Rick Del Prete to the final details of the repair. The team exuded professionalism and attention to details from day one. They made what could’ve been quite disruptive a very easy experience, and the final renovations look great. The team took the time to understand the challenges with our job and provided the appropriate solutions to make things perfect. They were on time, respectful, tidy and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. We would absolutely recommend DPG to anyone we know! Scott and Tracy Walthour Pleasanton

The team over at DPG Pavers and Design is amazing. Susie Garcia really knows her stuff, and is exceptional about making your exterior look timeless. There’s countless exterior design companies you can hire, but after getting to know Susie, it’s a no brainer to choose them.

After 35 years of home ownership and countless remodels, both inside and out, I can honestly say that DPG Pavers was one of the best contractors I have ever worked with. Every member of their team was professional- showed up for work on time, excellent skills, great communication and responsive to input and change requests. They are so much more than a paving or turf installer company- they redid our entire irrigation and lighting for our back yard, installed new plants that their expert and I chose together, rebuilt retaining walls ,stairs and wrought iron fencing using my existing materials. They also redid the drainage- a good thing as we have had massive storms these last few weeks and the back yard suffered no damage. Before the job started, I met with their designer twice, then did a walkthrough with the supervisor so everyone was on the same page. We had a designated team that ONLY worked on our job until it was complete, and they came every day, weather permitting. The supervisor checked in on a regular basis and did a final walkthrough to make sure I was satisfied. This is just a terrific contractor- would use again in a heartbeat! Special thanks to Mike and Steve, and all the office support.

DGP pavers and design has beautiful designs and builds; their attention to detail and quality is impressive. They have Great team!

Susie just gave a presentation at our BNI group. Wowwwww! Is all I can say! The work they do is beautiful. It’s hard to believe the before and after pics, but, they’re for real. If you want a new driveway, patio, or back yard? Talk to them. You won’t be sorry!

We love DPG pavers. They were so easy to work with, did a great job and what o loved most is they were reliable and dependable. Showed up on time, when they said they would be there. We love our beautiful pavers!

We had DPG Pavers and Design update our backyard with a Travertine paver patio and synthetic lawn. Our dogs love the synthetic lawn.

DPG Designs has been an amazing partner to work with on many project small and large. I highly recommend them!

This review is long overdue, we completed a whole yard landscape makeover that included a new paver driveway, we wrapped brick columns with composite cedar in the front yard, Dave built us a new mailbox out of composite cedar, a beautiful horizontal redwood fence, a 10’ bench and two decorative composite cedar walls that were placed on top of 3’ raised planters that his crew also built. We put in new sod, 3 new trees and many new plants. Dave, Susie, Kathleen (a horticulturist) and Dave’s crew were all so easy to work with. Dave amd Kathleen were so responsive when we called or texted, and they each had many excellent ideas. We presented a few pictures of things we liked but didn’t quite have a feel for the whole yard. The plan Dave and Kathleen presented was perfect and within our budget. Kathleen went through each plant that she chose and Dave went through the design ideas down to the type of pebbles we would use in the raised bed. All this was before any work was done. The project was done on time and on budget and it looks beautiful. All our neighbors have commented on how lovely the yard looks, both in summer and winter. We had a few plants die in the fall so we called Dave. He immediately let us know that the plants would be replaced and they were. Dave’s crew did some drainage work in the front yard in the summer that didn’t quite work when it began to rain. We called Dave, he had his crew out to the house that afternoon working in the rain 6 months after the work was completed. Because the work was done during the pandemic, all the crew wore masks and social distanced, Dave and Kathleen wore masks whenever they were at the house and we had out first few planning meetings on zoom. And, they were all really fun to work with! We could not have asked for anything more. It was a pleasure working with DPG Paving and Design. Thanks Dave, Susie and Kathleen!

I own a small landscape and maintenance business. In the Tri Valley. But when it comes to pavers and design I highly recommend DPG. Dave and Susie are amazing people with lots of knowledge. They take lots of pride in there work. Which is hard to find now in days with a lot of contractors. They do quality work and there customers are always satisfied. That’s why I refer all my clients to them when it comes to landscape design and pavers.

DPG put in my new landscaping and hardscaping back in 2017. The stonework was first rate and the planting plan was outstanding. The landscaping 2 years later is doing really good, even though there have been some plants that didn't fare well in the hot Discovery Bay summers. Dave's organization has stayed with us and helped us realize our vision. Kathleen and the crew came out today to put the irrigation in top shape and add a few more pieces to the puzzle. I would not hesitate to recommend Dave and his organization for any landscaping and/or hardscaping project.

DPG, their owners, and their team of workers is amazing. I've seen their work in community improvement projects and in homes of my friends. They are fast, affordable, and impeccable. When one house gets their driveway and softscape redone, they are the envy of the whole block. And what I love best is that they will take the time to make their work water-efficient, very important these days.

Dave and Susie Garcia with DPG Design have been colleagues of mine for many years. They have been my customer and they are an amazing “power couple” both socially and professionally. I know several people who have hired and referred DPG Design to do landscaping work and they all have glowing reviews and the before and after photos of their landscaping projects are unbelievable.

DPG Design & Landscape recently completed a landscaping job on our new home. The work included pavers on the front porch, a new front walkway, a side yard patio and walkway, two patios in the back yard, plus drainage, sprinklers, low voltage wiring, footers for a pergola, 2 lawns, 6 large (24 gallon) trees, and bark topping in all the planter areas. It was such a pleasure working with Dave Garcia, from the initial landscaping discussion, to selection of the pavers, through the implementation and final walk through. The work was completed in record time - only 11 days. I had assumed it would be longer after Dave’s initial estimate of 2 to 3 weeks, and other landscape companies quoting 5 to 6 weeks. They were so fast it was hard to keep up with them. You would be surprised how many decisions need to be made along the way: selection of pavers; layout of walkways, lawns, patios; location of sprinklers, wiring, and trees. At times there were 6 workmen on the job. The result is absolutely beautiful, and we’re enjoying showcasing it to our neighbors. I highly recommend DPG Design and Landscape. Their price was competitive, they were very flexible during the installation, and they did a meticulous job finishing the work and cleaning up.

DPG Design are fantastic! The crew they sent out was professional, clean extremely nice and worked very hard and fast. DPG was easy to work with during the entire process from design to build to invoicing at the end. I have had my driveway and my entire backyard done by them and highly recomend!

Susie and David are a truly professional class act team!! I highly recommend them to my friends, family, and clients. I have had numerous referrals mention to me how incredibly happy they have been with the quality and detail of their designs as well as the ease of installation! Reach out and have a conversation, I promise you will not regret it!

We purchased a newly constructed home and the backyard was just DIRT. An associate referred us to Dave and Susie Garcia with DPG Design. We absolutely LOVE the design they created! We showed our 3D Fly-Through video to everyone. It really helped envision what the finished yard would look like - they even included our dog! Now that the yard is completed, we are so proud to show off our Outdoor Living paradise to family, friends and all the neighbors. Thank you DPG Design!

We are very impressed with the work that the DPG Design Team creates. Working with Dave and Susie Garcia is a pleasure, they are very knowledgeable and creative. They have an excellent rapport with their clients and colleagues. We definitely recommend DPG Design.

I would like to recommend DPG Design for their 3D Conceptual Design services. I had a client that just couldn't visualize what I had put together on the 2D blueprint. I worked with Susie Garcia and the design team and they provided a very fast turn around so that I could get back to my client quickly, and the 3D design was very helpful.

I hired Dave Garcia's company to design and build a new backyard for my home in San Francisco. I was very impressed by Dave's ability to create an open feeling in a smaller yard. I love having friends and family over for a BBQ and to hang out by the fire pit. He selected low maintenance plants and they look fantastic. I was very satisfied with my experience!

I had no idea what to do for my backyard, thank goodness for Dave Garcia with DPG Design. He created an amazing design for the space. He incorporated a patio, synthetic lawn and drought tolerant planting with a modern theme. I was very impressed with the final design. Dave is really easy to work with and is very professional. Thanks Davie!

Susie Garcia has such integrity and brings a work ethic to everything she does that I am in awe of. Besides being super competent and organized she is also really a breathe of fresh air, so much fun to work with!

Dave Garcia is the consummate professional. I have worked with Dave and his wife Susie, and the process always goes very smoothly. If you get a chance to work with the Garcias, be sure to take advantage of that opportunity!

I am pleased to provide a review for Dave Garcia and his company DPG Design. I wasn't sure what to do for my backyard, so I hired Dave to create a landscape plan. It was so much easier to visualize once we had the 3D design. It was a great experience!

We were so impressed with Dave Garcia when he helped us with our backyard project. We had just purchased our home and the yard really needed a lot of help! He provided us with a design and resources to complete the project. We highly recommend Dave Garcia and DPG Design.

We had no idea what to do with our backyard, so I contacted Dave to schedule a consultation. He was able to ask my husband and I all of the right questions so that we could get the best use out of the space. The design he presented was amazing – we paid extra for the 3D design and it was worth it! I was able to clearly see what our new yard was going to look like. Thanks Dave!

The best thing about working with DPG Design is that they make the process fun and enjoyable. I needed an entire re-design of my front yard, driveway and entry, which is a big project. The team at DPG Design is so friendly and helpful that the process of creating the perfect design was a breeze, and the result was more than I expected. My package included 3D designs showing the project during the day, at dusk and at night so I could see what the landscape lighting would look like. I’m very very happy with my design!
