Paver Hall of Shame
To help illustrate our point of just how critical it is to select
the right paver installer, we are sharing some pictures of what we
call the Paver Hall of Shame. While we are proud to say none of
these photos are of any of our jobs, they are actual photos of
competitors projects.
Many of these projects were awarded to those contractors based on their attractive lower price, rather than the contractor's proven knowledge and tract record. Some of these companies sell the jobs, but then turn around and use sub contractors to do the installation. In many cases the sub contractors tend to cut corners or buy cheaper products in an attempt to increase their profits margin, when this occurs YOU the client gets left out with a subpar paver patio or driveway that looks good upon completion, but sooner rather than later the imperfections start showing.
These companies are driven by sales volume. They must sell large volume of patios, to offset the overhead needed to support that very same volume. It often becomes a resource robbing cycle of events, more patios, more mistakes requiring more people and associated overhead. In the end the customers "new patio" often resembles one that has been hacked and patched resembling a old patio renovation. These same companies often lay claim to have built more patios than anybody...ever...on the entire planet...since before the dawn of time..." (or some such sales hype). Or they boast of being "Voted Best of This and Greatest of That" typically by the same publications that they spent thousands of dollars with in monthly advertising. We don't believe in Gimmicks, hype or false advertising claims. Free this and free that, never "FREE", but rather buried in the price. Again, just more smoke and mirrors designed to get you sign a contract with them. Our company is built with focus on quality construction, rather than quantity - only a couple of jobs at a time - to prevent these construction train wrecks.
Our business model is different. We strive to keep our overhead low, our volume manageable and pass the savings on to the customer. We do not claim to be the best but we strive to be the best in our industry. We live, work and support our local community and pride ourselves in not having to hide in public from the embarrassment of a job gone badly. Come back and visit these pictures often during your decision process. Visit our 10-point promise guarantee to learn how we prevent these things from happening on our jobs.
As a customer of Houston Landscape Images, you will never be told that any of these conditions are "normal" or to be expected during or after construction. We view these photos as simply unacceptable and bad reflection on our industry as a whole. Visit our testimonial page to read what our customers are saying about our company.
