New Driveway

My husband and I hired Paul from Sure-way Paving. Both Paul and his crew are very professional and have always responded to phone calls and text messages promptly. The crew started working on-time and after the completion of the job, they left my front yard immaculate. We would certainly recommend this hard working and honest company.

"SURE WAY" VERY DISAPPOINTED

I hired Paul from Sure Way to pave two adjoining driveways. He sent his son Matthew who made a mistake with estimate by adding my neighbors walkway onto my estimate. He quoted me 3200sq ft when my driveway is 2700 sq ft. When I pointed out the mistake to Matthew he assured me not to worry, we wouldn't charge me for it. I took his word for it and believed him. The quote was to install 2 runs of asphalt, (2" of H8 and 2" of H3 totaling 4"). In reality he installed between 2 to 3 maximum. When I pointed out that on the boulevard he barely installed 2 inches. His answer to was "it belongs to the city, why are you worried about it" I said "it belongs to the city but I paid you for 4") he got upset and walked away. At my neighbors house, Matthew had priced to remove all the asphalt and install new. When Paul came to do the work there was a 4' x 20' long section that the machinery wouldn't fit to remove the asphalt so Paul left it since it was too much work. He said that he will recap it at no charge when he was actually supposed to remove it. When they finished paving, I will admit that the finish on the driveway looked great at first. As soon as Paul finished he wanted his money which I understand. After they left the problems slowly started to appear. After the first rainfall I had a fair size puddle in the driveway, 2' x 4' were skill from an experience contractor would have been required. 2 weeks later it went down to -6 deg. at night and the asphalt started breaking apart in the center of the driveway creating voids. The driveway is only 3 weeks old, paid Paul alot of money for a descent job and I already have problems. Now I'm worried about the quality of material that Paul gave me and what is going to happen after this winter. I honestly really regret hiring Paul. At first he was all smiles and very friendly and convincing but now I know that he really isn't a honest contractor. If I only knew then what I know now. When I approached Paul about the discussion I had with Matthew and the extra square footage from my neighbors walkway that he added to my estimate, he became very upset and yelled at me, "this is the estimate you where given and you have to pay. You can ask the neighbors to give you the money for his walkway". I really was not expecting this dishonesty from them and the unprofessionalism. ......... I RECOMMENATION TO ANYONE IS DON'T HIRE PAUL AND SURE WAY PAVING!!!!!! HE DOESN'T LIVE UP TO HIS WORDS!!!!!!

Weeds on a driveway

I engaged Sal to redo my driveway in the fall of 2017. I was initially pleased with the work done but now that spring arrived, weeds have popped up throughout the driveway. It's quite clear that they didn't use enough asphalt on the driveway. From what I can tell at this point, it only appears to be an inch or so of asphalt.
When I called Sal to report the issue he seemed very surprised but assured me that he was going to come by and check it out. He never did. I have left several voicemails, texts, texts with pictures of the issue and haven't received any responses. The head office doesn't return my calls either.
I am very disappointed with this situation and would never recommend Sure-Way in any way whatsoever.

Great jobs

I hired Paul to escavate and pave a parking this past year and I am very happy with the result. The whole job took around one week to complete from start to finish including the installation of a catch basin. Overall looks great.

Driveway repaving

While the quoted cost and professional manner of the company representative started off as a dream come true, now that the job is completed it is more of a nightmare. The workers showed up on July 25th after a heavy rainstorm and assured us this was not a problem. The project took an hour and we were told not to step on or park for at least 2 days so the asphalt could settle. After day 3 we inspected the driveway and found the job unsatisfactory. There were large holes in the asphalt where the gravel below is exposed. No care was taken to complete straight edges and asphalt was dumped over pieces of garbage that had blown on the driveway during the job. I was actually able to remove a large piece of plastic that was bubbling up from the asphalt. Needless to say it was not a proper job. In following up with the company rep we have been given the run around (except when a formal complaint was finally made against the company) and then conversations only lead to false promises and noncommittal responses.
Would not recommend unless you want a headache and a crappy driveway.

Driveway paving

I had my driveway paved this year by Sureway paving. I dealt with a nice gentleman by the name of Sal. Great quality of work and service, very professional. I I referred them to my sister and her husband to which she also stated they did a remarkable job, on her driveway.
Great service

repaving and extending driveway

Al from Sureway gave me the lowest estimate and gave me a breakdown of what they would do to my driveway....well, I think he should've told Paul cuz Paul didn't comply very well. Right from the get go I told Al that the stones weren't mixed well into the asphalt. But, he insisted that it was fine...well before winter came, weeds were already growing in the driveway. By next spring it was a horror. In most places they only laid down 1/2 inch of asphalt...the driveway was all wavy and the stones were coming out causing holes, it was cracking and lifting from weeds. After several ignored emails to Paul, I finally threatened to report him and he finally contacted me. Paul agreed to fix the boulevard which I actually thought was in the best condition...his crew just added more asphalt, overflowing it to the curb and sidewalk and didn't compress it enough. He paid another company. to fix the driveway and seal it but they refused to do it, they said Paul should clean up his own mess. My driveway which was done in late 2010 looks like it's 10 yrs old. Holes, cracks, lifting, weeds growing, stones falling out...So, basically, now I have to pay someone else to fix the holes and seal the driveway because I can't afford to have it redone.
