Riverside homeowners know that a backyard has to do more than look good in April — it has to hold up through triple-digit summers, Santa Ana winds, and the kind of sun exposure that fades cheap materials in a single season. New Generation Construction designs and installs premium paver and hardscape projects across Riverside, CA, from the historic neighborhoods around the Mission Inn and Wood Streets to newer builds in Orangecrest, Woodcrest, and Canyon Crest. Whether you're softening a sloped lot near the Box Springs foothills or building an entertaining patio in a flat Arlington backyard, we help Riverside residents turn underused yards into outdoor living spaces built for the long haul.

Why Riverside homeowners choose us
New Generation Construction has spent years working exclusively in the Inland Empire, and Riverside is home turf. We understand the expansive clay soils that show up in parts of La Sierra and Arlanza, the tighter access on older lots in the Wood Streets, and the HOA requirements common in Victoria Grove, Orangecrest, and Mission Grove. That local knowledge matters — it's the difference between a patio that stays flat for twenty years and one that starts settling after two winters.
Our Riverside clients tend to be homeowners who see their property as a long-term investment. They're not chasing the lowest bid; they want premium pavers from manufacturers like Belgard and Angelus, proper base preparation, correct compaction, and polymeric sand joints that actually hold up. We only install products backed by strong manufacturer warranties, and we stand behind our own workmanship. Most of our Riverside area projects start within two to four weeks of contract signing, and we keep a clean, respectful jobsite because we know we're working in your home. From the first site visit to the final walkthrough, one project manager stays with your build.
Hardscape projects we've completed near Riverside
Typical Riverside projects range from resurfacing a tired concrete slab with modern large-format pavers to full backyard rebuilds that combine a paver patio, an outdoor kitchen, a fireplace, and a covered pavilion. In the older neighborhoods near downtown Riverside and the Wood Streets, we often work around mature trees and narrow side-yard access, hand-carrying materials when needed. In newer communities like Orangecrest and Victoria Grove, we're frequently building larger entertaining areas with integrated seat walls, pizza ovens, and pool-adjacent lounges. Driveway replacements are also common in the Canyon Crest and Alessandro Heights areas, where homeowners want to upgrade curb appeal without the crack lines that come with poured concrete. Every project includes proper base depth, geotextile fabric where appropriate, and drainage planning tailored to Riverside's clay-heavy soils.

FAQ
How soon can you start a paver project in Riverside?
Most Riverside projects break ground within two to four weeks of contract signing, depending on permit requirements and material lead times. Custom pavers or specialty colors may push that timeline slightly.
Do you charge a trip fee for estimates in Riverside?
No. In-home consultations anywhere in the Riverside area are free, and we'll walk your property, discuss your vision, and provide a detailed written proposal.
How long does a typical paver patio installation take in Riverside?
A standard 400–600 sq ft paver patio in Riverside usually takes one to two weeks from demo to final cleanup. Larger projects that include walls, outdoor kitchens, or drainage work can run three to six weeks.
Do I need a permit for hardscape work in Riverside?
Simple at-grade patios and walkways typically don't require permits in the City of Riverside, but retaining walls over three feet, gas lines for BBQs and fire features, and structural work almost always do. We handle permitting on your behalf.
Will pavers hold up in Riverside's climate?
Yes — properly installed pavers are ideal for Riverside's hot, dry summers and occasional heavy winter rains. Unlike poured concrete, individual pavers flex slightly with soil movement instead of cracking, and damaged pavers can be swapped out individually.
