We are very pleased with the work that was done on our driveway by the staff working for Onyx. The original was torn up, taken away and replaced the following day. Joe was polite and informative and not pushy! 🙂 We are happy and satisfied with the look of our new driveway.

Driveway and patio were done to complete satisfaction. My husband said,”the driveway is a thousand times better.” Thank you Mike and John.

Onyx was true to their word with efficient, fast and professional job at our home. We needed our driveway done for probably 5 years and we finally did it! Couldn’t be happier!

We just had an asphalt driveway put in by the guys at Onyx. They did a fantastic job and were finished in less than a day and a half. They were quick, efficient, and left us with a shiny new driveway. It'll be a shame to drive on it after the 3-day waiting period is over.

Joseph and the entire team were excellent, thorough, attentive and professional throughout the whole process. I couldn't recommend them more. We absolutely love our new driveway, the amazing back basketball court and the retaining wall that they built and designed.

Very pleased with how the work turned out. Onyx redid our driveway and built a walkway with pavers to the front door. Great quality and workmanship, all at a reasonable price. Highly recommended.

Onyx replaced our driveway and added a new front walkway. We couldn't be happier with the results. The work was excellent quality, including the base prep work for both the walkway and driveway. Michael, John and their team were professional, communicated well, and were a pleasure to work with --and my husband is very picky.

Mike and John were professional, timely, and were able to complete the driveway, walkway and stairs in a very short amount of time. The craftsmanship of the workers was fantastic, Alex was able to tailor the work for our house to provide unique and beautiful pavers that matched our house perfectly. I have recommended them to neighbors and they are currently working on my mom's house as well. Highly recommend!

ONYX Home Improvements was a wonderful company to work with. They helped us repair and update a garden wall in front of our house. We are very pleased with the outcome. They were very responsive and interested in a great job for us.

Onyx Home Improvement did a great job helping us turn our heavily cracking asphalt/concrete driveway into a wonderful new look and feel. We replaced all of the driveway with concrete, widened it out to allow for better access/parking, and added a beautiful side wall. We also replaced our old brick walkway with new pavers, and carried the pavers up through the porch area. Michael had great suggestions to improve the overall look, and both Michael and John communicated exceptionally well. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing to do similar work!

Mike, John and their team did a great job on our front walkway. They were in and out in a little over a day. They suggested the colors for the brick which match well with the house. I heard about them from my neighbors who also had some work done by the team.

Onyx Home Improvements performed work on several driveways, walks, and patios in my neighborhood in March 2025. They removed a large shared asphalt driveway that was sinking in places and repaired the base packing different layers of stones before repaving with new asphalt. The job was done beautifully. I had two old red brick patios that were lifted by tree roots and sunk from erosion redone. Michael suggested using a half herringbone brick pattern and filling the joints with polymeric sand. The mason did a superior job. I also love the soldier course around the perimeter. One area in the lowest part of my yard was prone to growing moss. This section was dug out a couple of feet and filled with layers of different size stones before finishing with gray permeable pavers. I am very happy with all of the work. I highly recommend them.

I hired Onyx Home Improvements to complete a step installation on my porch. It turns out the ENTIRE structure had to be rebuilt! Onyx rebuilt my porch - and they did a better job than when it was first built 20 years ago. The work was completed professionally and they did a truly outstanding job. Also, Mike and John Cash were easy to reach and responsive to my questions. I’m thrilled with the quality of the work, and how very considerate their workers were of my property. What is even more amazing is that although the scope of the work increased, they honored the original quote. Thank you Onyx, I will happily hire you again!
