Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness
Scammers! Do not stand behind their work! Paid for a extended warranty and they did a shotty patch job. Driveway is crumbling after 3 years!

DO Not use this company. Our project was a new driveway, a garage apron, sidewalk with front step and a block retaining wall. First thing was the retaining wall. I rented a metal detector to find the marker and marked it for them. They still put the wall on the neighbors property and then argued with me that it was fine. They did finally move it. Next was the concrete work. First of all I came home to find they poured the concrete not on the day they where scheduled to do it so I had no way into my house. We only have 2 doors into our home 1 front door with new concrete step and a patio door in

I had a very similar experience as Melinda's post. Delays, excuses, more delays and excuses. Then it was the last possible day due to impending cold weather and they did a so-so job, with seams and poor cosmetics. Now 2 years later, the driveway has a couple of issues that need to be addressed (including a crack across the entire width) yet they won't come out at all. I was told I would "have to wait until next year... I can put you down on the list for next spring, since we stop servicing past customers after Labor Day." Incredible that they would treat their best customers

Contracted with ACT Asphalt Specialties Co for a driveway replacement. The end result looks great! But the road getting there was a bit bumpy.
The office and/or paving crew had poor communication and would pass blame around when I was not notified that crews were coming.
Our driveway was torn up for an entire month (9/14 to 10/14) due to rain delays and a failed first attempt at laying asphalt.
Their sales documentation stresses that a dry base is essential for laying down a good driveway. Despite torrential rainfall a day prior, they attempted to pave my driveway, only to call it quits once

**This is a 2 part review. My wife and I were both negativity impacted by this company so they are getting 2 reviews.

We have had so many issues with this company that I don't even know where to begin. We agreed to work with ACT on 8/2/18. As part of the agreement, we sent them a check for $3,475. Within a week of sending them the check, they cashed it & held onto our money for over a month before even beginning to work on our new driveway on 9/18/18. After tearing up our old driveway, there were a lot of days where it rained & so the driveway installation was pushed back until 9

So far, very unhappy. They finished my job minutes before a huge rainstorm. They covered the concrete, but poorly, so it got poured on before it could cure. There are several spots with obvious damage. In addition, the sealant or whatever they put on top was just slapped on, and looks terrible. I and my wife both left several messages with the office, none of which were returned. My salesman was very responsive, but he said it would be at least 10-12 days before someone could come out and look at it. Apparently they only have one person who is able to do that, and I am not high enough on the priority

They did a great job and the bid was great. You can see my full install on youtube, I made a 5 min time-lapse video of the install. https://youtu.be/pr-4lXzjGp0
