Company Background

The Paver Guys is a locally owned and operated design-build contractor serving Walnut Creek and the greater Bay Area. Founded in 2007 by owner Brian Schmidt, a Clayton native, the company was born from a desire to provide a more personal and reliable service than what he experienced elsewhere in the industry. With a background as a U.S. Marine, St. Mary's College graduate, and former design engineer, Brian applies a disciplined, detail-oriented approach to every project. He personally oversees each job, ensuring clients work directly with the owner, not a commission-based salesperson or an inexperienced crew. Specializing in interlocking concrete pavers, segmental retaining walls, and complete outdoor living spaces, The Paver Guys combines creative landscape design with precise construction to help homeowners realize their vision for a beautiful, functional, and enduring outdoor environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you handle common Walnut Creek landscape issues like slope erosion and drainage?

We address slope erosion and poor drainage head-on, which are frequent concerns in our local terrain. Our approach starts with proper earthmoving and regrading to create a stable base and direct water flow away from your home. We then expertly install segmental retaining walls and permeable paver systems that manage runoff effectively while preventing soil loss. This foundational work is critical; it ensures the longevity and beauty of your patio, walkway, or entire landscape, protecting your investment from common local water problems.

What's included in your design and construction process for a new patio or outdoor kitchen?

Our process is comprehensive and collaborative. It begins with a design consultation where we listen to your vision for the space—whether it's an Old World Tuscan patio or a Modern Contemporary outdoor kitchen. From there, we handle every aspect: from initial earthmoving and masonry construction to the final installation of pavers, countertops, and amenities like low-voltage lighting. As a design-build contractor, we manage the entire project, ensuring seamless communication and that the final build matches the designed plan, all while you interface directly with the owner, Brian.

Do you handle tree and shrub services along with hardscape installation?

Yes, we provide a full range of landscaping services to create a cohesive outdoor environment. This includes tree planting, care, and removal, as well as shrub planting and maintenance. We often integrate this greenery with our hardscape features like patios, retaining walls, and pergolas. This holistic approach allows us to design and build a unified space where the softscape and hardscape complement each other, resulting in a complete, resort-like backyard that's both beautiful and functional.
