ORCO grew quickly and in 1952 a second plant was built. Today, ORCO operates in 7 locations throughout Southern California including a mortar bagging plant, and state-of-the-art Pavingstones facility dedicated to only paver production, servicing western United States entirely.

In June of 2019 I had the top of the line pavers installed in my Hardscape. Beautiful rich colors which made our house look amazing. Unfortunately only 6 months later they had faded by 60 percent and now look 20 years old. I had jack the customer service liaison come out to view the product and he stated "this is normal wear". At first i accepted it and moved on. But after only 3 months later the pavers have lost all color so I wrote an email and contacted Jack last week. HE IS AVOIDING ME.

Couldn't ask for better customer service. If you have any questions ask for Bobby. I ordered pavers for my pool deck and even got help with some great color options. So professional and very friendly. They calculate how much you need depending on your square footage. Even delivered it as well. I will definitely be back when it's time to do my driveway. I did 25% Chateau and 75% Borrego on pool deck and I did Borrego coping.

Two visits here. It is a wholesale contractor supply yard for all types of blocks. Each visit I was able to talk with an associate immediately and they offered extensive, helpful feedback each time. Easy going and very friendly. Seems to be a popular place for sourcing blocks for construction in the area. I was scoping out options for building a retaining wall, and the options they had were exactly what I needed. Pricing was quite good for the blocks, but delivery for one pallet was a set $275 even though I only live less than one mile away. No thanks.

My wife and I went to the Oceanside store and were impressed with the excellent customer service. I know nothing about installing pavers and the employees were patient and helpfull. Mario was most helpful and made us feel comfortable with the process. We will return when ready for more landscape projects in the future. Highly recommend!

I chose Orco block for their outstanding selection of concrete pavers. I went in on a friday and Orco block is not open on weekends so it was extremely busy. They only had 2 people working in the office who were helping customers and answering the phone. They did not have time to help a do-it-yourselfer order bricks. I felt like they usually work with contractors ordering huge quantities. They couldn't be bothered with a little backyard job.
I needed 400 square feet of pavers. I had them picked out and just wanted to order them and have them delivered. They couldn't deliver
