NO to cheap paint jobs and YES to stain & seal. Pavers? Everybody I have talked said they look good but can break or come loose.

JMHO
Agree with you about pavers. We bought a house with them. Recently had to replace many of the cracked and broken bricks. If we were starting from scratch, we wouldn't do it, although they do look very nice.
