Get matched with top asphalt paving installers in Round Lake, IL

"This company is notorious for dishonesty and poor communication. When I hired them, the owner conveniently "forgot" to mention that my project would take 8 days--unlike every other driveway project, which typically takes just two. What he didn't explain is that most of those eight days would be filled with... nothing. They tore out my driveway, and then--silence. No work for two days. When I followed up, Michelle from the office told me they were waiting on a village inspection, which could take anywhere from two days to a week. That seemed strange, so I called the village directly. They informed me that no such inspection is required. When I confronted the owner and asked if this was his first time working in my village, he said no. I then asked why his office would mislead me about inspections if they've worked here before. His response? Silence. That's when the truth started to emerge. The quality of the work is fine. No complaints. Had the owner told me it would take 8 day"

"CRACKS, CRACKS CRACKS !!!My brand new ten month old driveway from Total Paving is a bunch of CRACKS!!! The cracks are growing longer and wider and new ones are forming all over my driveway- down the center of the whole driveway, along the sides and in between. The owner of Total paving George Lozada even noted on an invoice that “a notable amount of cracking , which is not typical for a year old driveway , has become an issue that may not be resolved by typical repair methods”However, he would not redo the driveway which is under WARRANTY unless I hired a soil Expert and agreed to pay for the dig up of the old driveway undercutting and new asphalt which was going to be the case as asking for a driveway without cracks was opening a can of worms . I already paid 11,589 and am not going pay for a redo .The Total Paving says they Guarantee an esthetically complete driveway that shows off its quality through its beauty”- that is Not my Cracked driveway! Total Paving website states “our commitment to you is to provide a strong and durable pavement that us functional , reliable for years to come “ - that is Not my Cracked driveway.Total Paving website states “the proper steps are taken to install a driveway that lasts “-that us not my Cracked driveway! Whether it was improper base,( which I have pictures when they widened my driveway on the cracked side they never added any rocks or base the day of installation)wet base, the asphalt material or installation workmanship something went wrong that day and my driveway from Total Paving is horribly Cracked!"

"They did a professional job, were honest, and showed up on time and delivered on time. I will be using them again in the future."

"Pavestone Rockwall pecan bricks were purchased by our contractor. Home Depot loaded the pallet on his truck and he brought it to our yard. While unloading we noticed a third of the pallet was pecan. The rest appeared as cinderblock. When returned to Home Depot they were very cooperative in refunding. Home Depot told us this is a common problem with this product from Pavestone. When Pavestone is contacted the say they will correct the problem, but nothing is ever done. My contractor has contracted Pavestone here in Denver and was told a representative would come to check out our issue. Never seen anyone from Pavestone. They are totally unresponsive to paying customers requests. Arrogant and rude to disregard customers. Find other product if you can! We now have a partially built retaining wall and my contractor is searching Denver to find a pallet tgat even has a few pecan colored bricks! Pathetic customer service"

"I used this company for a number of years and the overall service is no longer the same. I had them over to clean my gutters and I witnessed ladders slamming against the side of my house and they tore one of the edges from the corner of my roof with their step ladder. I will not use them going forward."

"Nolands Landscaping did a wondaful job regrading our yard. He worked with us to fit our budget and did a phenomenal job. Our yard used to flood with heavy rain and the water would stand and it would be soggy for weeks then tons of mosquitoes. He did a awesome job of directing the water so it goes to the drain in the back. No standing water anymore it drains and the yard is useable next day! Great resolution to our problem. Thank you."

"We are return customers, and once again Poul's service was excellent. Kelly provided personalized attention to our project, and we greatly appreciate her expertise. The crew did a wonderful job planting our trees, and communication about installation dates was prompt. They genuinely care about their customers, and have a beautiful nursery; highly recommend."

You'll get so much more when you call the Thrifty Nickel Handyman family, I know they'll always be our first call. Thank you Joe, Jeff, Victor and Nancy for all you do! Larry, Melisa and Kyra"

"Large area on grass with sealcoat..other smaller areas. New mailbox (This year) with a area of black sealcoat on the post. One long crack they missed with filler."

"American Asphalt repaved my driveway in May 2019. The following winter, the new driveway elevated above my sidewalk on both sides creating a 1 inch wall on either side of the walkway. When I reported this issue to them they denied there was any issue and did nothing to resolve my issue. I continue to have issues in the winter and the driveway still remains elevated even during the warmer months. I recommend you look elsewhere for asphalt maintenance and repairs."
