    Sean & his team were a dream to work with! They were on time, polite, CLEAN, honest, did incredible work & took the time do exactly what was needed with perfection. My husband & I can't say enough good things about McGrew. They truly rescued us from a bad general contractor that left us with a bad taste in our mouth to helping us complete our dream home in great timing. They are true professionals. Hope these photos help!

    Sean and Matt are truly one of a kind. If you are looking for any type of masonry work stop looking and give Sean a call. I have already done all the research for you. I dedicated 8 months to searching, did 9 interviews, got 9 estimates under my belt. Trust me, you are not going to find better people for your project. Sean had my estimate within 24 hours along with all his insurance and license information, plus references. Being able to look at his past work in person and even contact his pass clients was very important to us. On a side note, I didn't have to ask for this information, he provided it to us. I could tell from this that Sean believes and backs up his work 100%. Sean only does one job at a time therefore he is committed to your project full time. Before my project was started he was working on another job site but he communicated with me weekly to give me updates on his progress and a future ETA. From start to finish his communication with me went far beyond what I was Expecting. Another thing that stands out is that at the beginning of each work day Sean would explain what they would be working on for that day. This was great because I knew exactly what to expect by the end of each work day, it also opened the door for any questions I could have. I had absolutely no issues and no surprises with Sean and his team. They always cleaned up after each day and we're always on time. Oh! They also finished 1 day ahead of scheduled. Do yourself a favor and give McGraw Masonry a try. Thank you Sean, Chavez Family

    We contracted McGrew Masonry for a retaining wall since ours was on the verge of collapsing. Sean and his crew did such an amazing job and we received many compliments on the new wall. The pictures don't do it justice. We appreciate all their hard work and attention to detail.

    We met with multiple other companies and Sean was by far the most professional, thorough, and informative of them all which is why we decided to go with them. As soon as they started the process they were very organized, efficient and very detailed. All of the work they did was impeccable and we are so glad we chose Sean and his amazing team to help transform our backyard. From start to finish Sean made our experience so pleasant and easy and without a doubt you will not be disappointed if you choose them for all your masonry needs!

    Mc Grew Masonry, Inc. is the best in this business. Stayed with us the whole time they were on the job. Cleaned up after finishing everyday. Was fast and very efficient with no surprises. They made my new back yard patio, mow strip, grass, drainage system, sprinkler system, BBQ Island, Stuccoed my chimney, raised concrete wall sitting area, and new driveway. I will becoming back for their services when needed in the future. Thanks Sean and Matt McGrew and Team

    This floor is PERFECT in our Butler's Pantry.

    I can not speak highly enough of Sean McGrew and his team. His work is impeccable and you can tell that his work is his passion. Sean is very nice, approachable and knowledgeable. Over the years, we have had him back for more are more projects as we remodel. Sean started by refacing our fireplace with brick. Once we saw the quality of his, we hired him to install the brick pavers throughout our house. Since then he has also put in concrete steps coming out our back door, built a small retaining wall and most recently rebuilt the wall we share with our neighbor. Sean was able to match the materials of the section of the wall that was still in good shape and then we had him stucco over the wall to complete the project! As we continue to work on the house, he is our first call for all masonry projects.

    Saw cutting the old concrete slab to incorporate into the new slab.

    Sean & Matt McGrew are meticulous in their work. In 6 days they did the work of 5 guys, and my husband, a Custom Home Builder of 30 years, says their structural footings and slab work product is the best he has seen in 30 years. They are true artists in their work. We highly recommend them and look forward to working with them in the near future on some finely detailed hardscape.

    This is after the repairs/replacement by Sean McGrew  and his crew. Thank you again Sean!

    We had Sean and his guys out to fix some problems with the coping and concrete around our pool. The repair work looks fantastic and the price was fair. They were there when they said they would be, cleaned up every day and kept us informed through out the process. Sean is a craftsman that cares about his product. Thank you again Sean, Matt and the third gentleman who' name escapes me.

    See all

    This company is very fast and JC always maintained strong communication. There were some minor…read moredisappointments, but overall we were happy with the work that was done. My wife and I have a new-build that required additional landscaping of our backyard. We eventually decided to go with California Outdoor Living after reading all their positive reviews on yelp. In addition their quote was very competitive if not the best when looking at other contractors. We already had a design in mind for JC which made the process very quick. Although there was some misunderstanding with the design and drains throughout the process, JC was always responsive with his texts and quick to make adjustments. The moment we got our design approved by our HOA, the construction happened VERY FAST. We emailed California Outdoor living on a Wednesday evening of our approval. The very next day (Thursday), JC arrived to go over the outline. I do appreciate how fast things were done, but it was almost to a fault at times. They were ready to go by the next day but my wife and I didn't feel like we had discussed the plan and execution thoroughly enough. On Friday the construction workers were already digging out our backyard. They spoke only Spanish so communication was very difficult to ensure if our plan was executed appropriately. By Saturday all of the pavers were laid out. Construction was incredibly fast but because of that some details were lost in translation. We discussed with JC that we wanted an 11x14 ft paver island. However the final dimensions was 12.5 x 12.5 feet. We also wanted all the walls of our backyard to be lined with turf. However the paver border ran too close to one of the walls, that putting turf did not make sense. They only left 1 inch between the wall and the paver (see attached image). We appreciate how fast the work was done. The overall work was great BUT not exactly what we wanted. We felt rushed with the whole construction process. However everything was done in less than a week which was incredible! In addition, once the turf was laid out JC noted that window reflections from both our neighbors and our own windows would cause damage to the turf. He informed us this can happen sometimes. Going back to rushing things and not being thorough, we wished JC took the time to look at our backyard and factor in this possibility. If we had known the reflections could damage this area we would have changed our turf design. At the end of the day they are just executing our design, but it's these minor things that left us feeling like our backyard could have been better. However we are still very thrilled with the overall speed and communication done throughout the process! Would still recommend this company. But these small critiques are definitely something to keep in mind for future clients.

    I would not recommend this company. Their lack of attention to detail made the entire experience…read moreunpleasant. The drainage tube was installed with the slope going the wrong direction, and the walls were not properly covered before the concrete was poured, leaving concrete splatter all over the side walls. The concrete also cracked less than three days after it was poured. It was poured on Monday morning, and on Wednesday the artificial turf guy was using a large plate compactor right next to the two-day-old concrete. I believe the vibration from that equipment contributed to the cracking. When I spoke with JC about the issue, he told me that concrete will crack sooner or later and that is why they do not warranty cracks. Concrete was poured directly on top of the soil, no gravel was brought first. While I understand that concrete can crack over time, I did not expect it to crack before I had even made my final payment. Despite my disappointment, I paid the remaining balance. After that, I never received any follow-up confirmation that the payment was received , or even a simple thank you.

    There are renovations that improve a home -- and then there are renovations that fundamentally…read morerecalibrate how that home exists within its environment. What Byron Schley and the team at Hillside Pavers delivered for us falls squarely into the latter category. Ours is one of the oldest houses on the block, my grandfather built it himself in the early seventies so needless to say there is sentimental value here, the years were told loudly in its dated facade ever more blindly as one by one and year by year the houses around us became more modern and desirable and that contrast was ever more noticeable when it became every other house on the block. Before this project, our front yard was little more than a narrow, uninspired strip adjacent to the public sidewalk that functioned more like spillover from the street than usable property. It did nothing to reflect the scale or architectural presence of our three-story, beach-adjacent home. Today, that same footprint operates as a private, structured courtyard -- a defined outdoor living space that feels intentional, modern, and architecturally integrated. The Techo-Bloc paver installation is executed with geometric discipline and clean proportional balance. The contrasting border trim sharpens the layout, and the modular patterning reads refined rather than repetitive. Where water once pooled visibly, the drainage now performs efficiently and invisibly -- The upgraded water line alone was transformative. What used to produce barely a trickle now delivers pressure so strong it rivals commercial output .The underground drip irrigation system is intelligently concealed beneath the hardscape and reemerges precisely within the base of our large entry planters. It is automated, timer-controlled, and calibrated for plant health without visual clutter. For us gardening is a foreign labor, the system removes guesswork and replaces it with precision. It lays the groundwork for what will be Madagascar jasmine and Rainbow's End climbing roses to ascend the custom trellis Speaking of the trellis -- it is a custom design by Byron himself and serves as the architectural anchor of the entire entry sequence. Its linear steel geometry frames the approach to the home, introduces vertical rhythm, and gives the courtyard presence and scale. The black powder-coated aluminum slat fencing, set atop a raised paver foundation, creates privacy without heaviness.The laser-cut gate beneath the trellis introduces texture and artistry, especially when lit from behind at night. And the lighting system integrated along the fence base and entryway is hospitality-grade in execution. The perimeter wash creates a subtle floating effect. The laser-cut gate panels glow from behind in layered depth rather than harsh brightness. With full color customization available, the space can transition from understated architectural white to vibrant holiday displays with precision. It feels closer to a Ritz-Carlton courtyard or private club environment than a residential frontage. Most importantly, the project didn't just improve appearance -- it created usable square footage. It has become the preeminent gathering space of our home. it is upscale functional living space.The neighborhood response has been immediate .Neighbors who we barely knew for years have introduced themselves. Passersby stop to compliment the change.The property now projects the level of architectural coherence it always deserved. We approached this cautiously. Prior experiences made us exacting and demanding clients. Byron handled that with patience and professionalism. When questions arose, they were addressed. The end result reflects accountability and pride in workmanship. Hillside Pavers is not inexpensive -- but quality rarely is. There is a tangible difference between budget work and engineered, finished craftsmanship. This project did not simply beautify our home. It expanded it. If you are seeking exterior transformation that blends infrastructure, architecture, lighting design, and true spatial creation -- Byron Schley delivers work that justifies the investment. The result is not just attractive.It is world class work accompanied by attentive customer service . Rarely do you see people that live by the age old idiom anymore who's motto is the customer is always right! But With this outfit that's exactly what you receive and working with them was transformative . I highly recommend their services to any and everyone who are sick of simply average work and service that only toes the industry line, if you want something more, something world class and a good experience throughout call Byron Schley and hillside pavers (+1 (714) 613-2500) , I cannot sing their praises high enough and this review doesn't even give them the credit they deserve so one last time Thank You Byron and thank the boys down at hillside pavers for an amazing job

    We recently completed a major paver project with Hillside Pavers, and I can honestly say the final…read moreresult came out even better than I imagined. We were referred to Hillside Pavers by a close friend who had completed a similar project not long before ours, and that recommendation gave us a lot of confidence going in. After going through the process ourselves, I can absolutely see why they spoke so highly of the company. From the beginning, Byron made the design and estimating process feel very clear and professional. One thing I really appreciated was that he used an iPad on-site to draw out the design, calculate measurements, and price everything very accurately. It was not a vague "ballpark estimate" type of process -- it felt transparent, exact, and easy to visualize, which gave us a lot of confidence moving forward. Byron also helped us finalize the color choices, especially for the walkway, and his suggestions made a big difference in the final look. Roberto, who supervised the on-site construction work, was also excellent. He really listened to my concerns, took the time to discuss details with me, and most importantly followed through in the actual work without any issues. That meant a lot to me because I care about both design and functionality, and he handled both very well. Casandra in the office and Oscar as the business manager were also great throughout the process. They were organized, responsive, and helped keep everything coordinated smoothly, which made the whole experience much less stressful. What stood out most about Hillside Pavers overall was that they listened to our preferences and worked with us instead of pushing a one-size-fits-all solution. The workmanship, communication, and attention to detail were all strong, and the finished project truly transformed the property. During the project and especially after completion, we received numerous compliments from neighbors and friends, which really confirmed for us how well everything came together. I would absolutely recommend Byron, Roberto, Casandra, Oscar, and the entire Hillside Pavers team.
