Get matched with top asphalt driveway pros in Margate, FL

"I highly recommend you look elsewhere. Got a quote from Asphalt Paving by GW that said they will fill all cracks and sealcoat driveway. Spoke to Ramsey a few times, he was very friendly and we talked through the project over the phone. On our call we discussed that the driveway had a lot of cracks and he mentioned he might not be able to fill every single individual crack but told me he was going to do his best which I said was fine. Day of the job I was working from home and stuck in a meeting, I couldn't get out to see the work until it was 75% done. That's when I found out they're not using hot asphalt sealant (the stuff every other professional uses) he's using buckets of Latexite. I take some responsibility for this because I should have confirmed 100% what product they would use but had assumed by contacting a "professional" asphalt paving company that they would be hot sealing the driveway. I spoke to Ramsey, he mentions that he did not crack fill the driveway at all either and just put the Latexite down extra thick (not what the manufacturer recommends). When I mentioned that the quote and our conversation was for crack repair he pulled out a single gallon jug of crack filler and said he used 1/4 of the bottle for my 2,000sq ft driveway. I asked what the adjusted price was considering he didn't do the work that was quoted and he told me the price was the same. "The driveway is black and I worked hard" apparently is enough justification for this obvious bait and switch. He said the stuff he used was the best you can buy which is a complete lie because it was the bucket with a green lid which has 4 year warranty and Latexite sells other sealers that have 8 and 10 year warranties. To top it off he asked to be paid with a check written out to him specifically rather than his business (I'm assuming to avoid paying taxes on his business revenue). On his way out he must have spilled one of the buckets of sealer because there is now a puddle of sealer in the street at the bottom of our driveway that he tried to cover up by throwing some dirt onto it, didn't feel the need to try to hose it off or even notify me that he screwed up. I guess I'll be pressure washing our street this weekend so my neighbors don't think I'm a slob. I trusted the Google reviews and should have done more research, please learn from my mistake and call a different company or just do the project yourself considering GW is just going to use the cheap stuff they sell at Home Depot anyway."

"Everything started great until the contract was signed and then things just got worse going forward. Responsiveness went done hill and most important the quality of work that was done. My pool looked better before, and the surfacing looks 20 years old. The pool was drained 3 times which cost me more money because they installed the new pool light incorrectly, which also looks old now because they did not start up the pool correctly. My plaster is rough like sandpaper and the kids get scraps from swimming. I am now looking for another company to resurface the pool. Also, DF Pools farms out all the work. Look for a company that does everything themselves. They fail to tell you this upfront, so stay away and avoid the headaches. I plan on uploading photos later."

"Al did a fantastic job! He was on time, kind, honest, and gave a very very good price. He takes pride in his work and does not leave until the job is perfect. We will definitely be hiring him again."
