Long Beach pavers for older homes.
On an older house, Long Beach pavers usually mean replacing something. A cracked original slab, a sunken patio or a brick drive gone uneven comes out first, and everything new sits on a rebuilt base.
Removing old paving can reveal conditions that need attention, such as soft ground, roots or an unsuitable base. The proposed preparation should address those findings and the intended use of the replacement surface.
On an older property, the right material can feel at home from the start. Clay brick, stone-look pavers, natural stone or concrete offer different textures and patterns to compare against the facade and retained features.
What we replace, and what we build.
Patios
Swap the cracked slab for a new patio shaped around how your household lives outside, pitched so rain stays off the back step.
Walkways
Front walks heaved by roots or sunk over the years, rebuilt straight and level, with a border that suits an older facade.
Concrete
Concrete still suits plenty of older homes: a new slab, careful control-joint layout and a surface finish that fits the facade.
Paving with character.
Take cues from the home and the garden around it. A quieter paving pattern, a curved path or a defined border can give the outdoor space a sense of continuity.
An inviting front walk
A curved front walk leads naturally to the porch.
A place to sit outside
Paving makes room for a quiet seating area beside the house.
An entrance with detail
Rounded steps and coordinated paving finish the doorstep.
A composed garage approach
A consistent paving pattern finishes the approach to the garage.
Plan the backyard, keep what works.
Older yards tend to have a big tree, a path worn into the lawn and a slab nobody likes. Show us those, and the new patio and walks will work around what's worth keeping.
Mark these before the old paving comes out.
- Each slab, brick or walk you want torn out.
- Tree roots, meter boxes and cleanouts near the old paving.
- Anything original to the house you'd like to keep.

Before the tear-out.
Yes. OCIP can replace an old brick driveway with paving suited to vehicle use. Genuine clay brick and brick-look concrete pavers offer different material choices, so specify which you prefer. The condition of the existing surface, base, finished levels and drainage should be assessed before the replacement system is selected.
They're planned from the back door out. The patio sits below the threshold and falls gently away from the foundation, so rain moves off toward the yard instead of the house. Then it's sized for the furniture you'll use and linked by a path to the driveway and side gate.
The connection needs to be planned around the garage, door and sidewalk levels. A flush transition may be suitable in some locations, but the drainage and building details also matter. Assessing those fixed points first helps determine the preparation and finished height for the new paving.
It depends on the district and the work, so ask before you choose. If your house sits in a historic district such as Bluff Park, check with the city about front-yard paving early, then pick materials with that answer in hand. We'll put the chosen pavers, pattern and border in writing, so you have specifics to show.
Yes. OCIP installs poolside paving and can coordinate coping or pool remodeling with the surrounding work. Licensed subcontractors may be involved depending on the scope. On an older pool, assess the existing deck, pool connection, finish and drainage together before deciding what should be replaced.
Yes. Long Beach remains part of OCIP’s residential service coverage even though it is in Los Angeles County. Share the driveway, patio or walkway you want to improve and the existing surface. Use the estimate form or call 714-627-5543, and email supporting photographs to tyler@ocip.biz.
