I contacted 3 different paving companies and Martin was the most responsive. They told me that they would come out to look at what we wanted and give us a quote within a week. Their representative was very friendly, professional and informative. They gave me a price a few days later.
They might not be the least expensive contractor, but they have an excellent reputation and reviews.
Also, after seeing the frustrations that 2 of my neighbors had when using small 'good deal' paving contractors, we wanted a truly reputable company to work with.
They told me that their primary business was commercial paving, and that if we wanted them to do the job it would be when they were between large jobs, in other words, a filler job.
We were not in a rush, and it didn't matter if it happened in two weeks or 6 months. I was also told that they don't do any paving from early December through late March. We contracted with them in early December.
They did not require any deposit.
They called me on Thursday April 20th and asked if they could do the job the following day.
A team of 9 men with large equipment arrived at 7 am on Friday. Before they had finished the prep work, which was extensive, the paving crew of 10 men arrived.
The work was done efficiently and professionally and great attention was paid to the quality and appearance of the driveway.
Our driveway is about 300' long, with a double curve.
There are large trees on both sides and my wife has planted monkey grass bordering both sides of the driveway. Nothing was damaged.
The driveway is wonderful. We are truly pleased and impressed with Martin and all employees. An excellent company to work with.
