AE Interlock Paver Design

They did a big job for me two years ago now. The pavers are holding up great too. The project was complex with step, circle driveway, tree rings, landscape edge and they did a great job as designed by them. I would use them again.

We used this company for our backyard, we had received a flyer in the mail and thought we would give them a shot. Kim came out and gave us a quote, and was helpful in our planning process. The crew they sent did a great job. Our backyard was better than our expectations. We will most likely use them for our front yard.

What a total disappointment! After getting several mailers for this company in one of those Val-Pak’s over the years I decided to give them a call to price out a project in my backyard. I spoke with Ryan and he told me they would come onsite and provide me with a quote on the spot. He explained Kim would be the person to come out.
I took the afternoon off work to meet them at my house so it was especially disappointing when Kim arrived late. He looked around and said he had another appointment he needed to get to and that he would have to come back the next day and spend more time taking measurements. We set up a time the next day and he never bothered to show up (or call). I called him and he said he forgot and that he would stop back by within the next 5 days to take measurements and draw up plans. It’s now been three weeks and I have yet to hear from him.
I am SO glad I didn’t give them any money. I have a feeling that the lack of follow through on the proposal process is indicative of their overall workmanship.
I would advise anyone considering them to take their business elsewhere — as I did.

This company has a new owner, apparently. Mike came out to survey and give us a price for the work we wanted done. He was very professional and forthright. He came a second time to find out if we had any questions and to go over our plan. We agreed on price and was told the work would take 3 days.
Everything went smoothly. The 3 workers were efficient, hardworking, careful and diligent. They finished in the time expected and did a fantastic job. We made a slight change that didn’t cost much at all. Mike came during the 3 days to look over things. And Ryan Armistead, the owner, came twice to check on the work and ask if we had any questions.
We’re very happy with our backyard redesign and the company we hired.

After lots of research and getting quotes from about 5 different paver companies, I went with AE Interlock Design because they had the best bid. I signed the contract and was disappointed to hear that they would not be able to start for a month. They arrived on time and the agreed upon day, and the owner, Asher, came with a crew of 3 men. This was the first time I met Asher, as the entire time I had been working with his employee, Kim, who was sent to make the bid, sign the contract, and shook my hand.
When Asher arrived he became upset and told us that he could not do our backyard for the amount of money that we signed the contract for. He said it would be at least a 3 day job and that he would lose money. He offered to give us our deposit back plus a hundred fifty dollars. With my patience waining and 3 palettes of bricks on my driveway, I wanted this job done now. He asked for $ 550 more than what we agreed upon and signed the contract for. He said this was the first time this has happened. In the same breathe, I signed a contract with this man and he broke it. I don’t know about you, but a contract is my word. I told him that this practice was ethically shaky, and that when you bid a job and sign a contract with someone, you eat the cost because a signed contract is your word — and reputation.
Overall, he and his crew did a good job. He said that he has not worked a job in 2 years and he stayed to work our backyard because it was technically a difficult job. It also only took them 1 day + 2.5 hours (not the 3 day job he said this would take and the reason he would lose money on it).
Again, I believe they do good work, but I will not be using or recommending this company again in the future because of their unethical practices.
If I did it again, I would go with John Traynor from Stone Creations.
