Get matched with top paving pros in Highland, MD

"E Stanley paving did a great job. Their representative Joe was friendly and professional and able to answer all our questions. They started the job within a few days of the initial visit. It entailed a lot more work than I thought. They had to bust up three sections of the driveway in order to make it level and get a proper base and had to raise a drain in the driveway. Due to many issues with the county grinder in our front yard that the county has had to excavate our driveway had sunk down 3 inches. They created a smooth surface level to the sidewalk and did a nice job on the edges. We couldn't be more thrilled."

"I am very satisfied with the loose fill paving over my back parking lot and the driveway leading back. All grass was removed and edging was done prior to the fill being applied. Also a 4x70 asphalt walkway from my basement door was done very nicely. It’s been about one month and the loose fill is holding very well. The price was very affordable. I recommend this paving company and will be happy to contract with them for future work."

"Capital Paving & Sealcoating re-paved out driveway this week - - it is nearly 200 feet long and wide enough for three cars at the garage. They did an excellent job. They showed up on time, kept us informed every step of the way and truly cared about the quality of the work. They gave us an honest assessment of our driveway and pro's and con's of the options. I highly recommend them - - you won't be disappointed!"

I wasn't sure if I wanted the stamped concrete option verses the pavers when I first started my search so I decided to select a few specialists for both the stamped concrete and the pavers.

I quickly decided against the stamped concrete option. It offered far more patio for the money. Yet, the warranties were the worse of the choices.

Of the remaining choices for the paver patios, Mike's quote was the highest...and to be quite frank, First Impression Hardscape offered the lowest of square footage for the cost of the possible contractors for the job.

Here were the deciding factors for choosing the company that offered a little less patio for a little more money:

*I wanted high quality work over considerable size

*We decided on Nicolock pavers and the Nicolock manufacturer performed extensive screening prior to deeming the company a recommended contractor

*HomeAdvisor also perform extensive background checks and screening and deemed the company a recommended contractor for the job.

*First Impression Hardscapes uses many of the suggested techniques the Nicolock manufacturer suggests as "best practices"...So, we got to watch videos on the Nicolock site and knew exactly what steps would be taking to install our patio prior to the actual installation. It was fun knowing the different stages in advance and watching it play out.

*First Impression Hardscapes' technique was slightly more extensive then the other contractors. Neither of the other possible choices used edge-restraints. FIH also used something a bit better than the usual poly-sand for insect and weed control.

When spending thousands of dollars on a project for the home...of which I have little prior experience with soliciting help...the above mentioned factors played a significant part in my decision!!!

Of course, after any huge purchase decision, a given buyer tends to have a bit of buyer's remorse...Such the case with me...Well, Mike, our primary point of contact, is great with handling buyer's remorse. He's confident about his products and services. Yet, he will let you brainstorm and question EVERYTHING until you've got it out of your system. He endured many many inquiries. He endured so many long-winded emails about the cost, process, color choices. (By the way, I strongly advise against making a color choice from the Nicolock catalog, very deceiving...Best to visit a stone store and see for yourself.

Well, I went to two stone stores...I didn't speak with a representative either time. I found a color I loved at one store...thinking it was the same as the color I saw in the catalog. Then I went to another store, assuming the display was exactly the same and the same color looked awful. So, we left it up to Mike to choose something he thought was suitable to our taste as well as resale value, and...as life would have it, he ended up choosing the original color that we saw and loved at the first stone store we visited.

About the actual process. The pavers were laid perfectly. The guys arrived on time each day. They WORKED!!! Great attention to detail. They clearly knew what they were doing and had some training in "professionalism" as well as the actual job at hand. The clean-up effort was as superb as the actual installation!

They met my expectations...I chose First Impressions because based on the Angie's List reviews as well as the endorsement from highly reputable companies, I felt like I couldn't lose. I felt like I greatly optimized my chances of getting the best quality patio possible by selecting First Impression Hardscapes. The company didn't let me down!!!

My neighbors fell in love with the workers! My neighbors are extremely particular about the upkeep of our cul-de-sac and antennas go up at the thought of anyone getting major work performed to the outside of the properties. Yet, all were pleasantly surprised, and the installation itself, the speed, as well as the clean-up efforts far exceeded their expectations!!! The neighbors are ecstatic!

I think FIH is going to land another sale in my neighborhood very soon!!!

Mike and John...We LOVE your crew!!!! Thanks for everything!!!!

"Fantastic workwoman ship, customer service and company. Our driveway was trashed and BADLY in need of seal coating, crack and patch repair. They came out, fixed ALL the cracks and were able to give our driveway a DOUBLE coat of sealant-it needed it! Super nice and great communication. Will be sure to recommend-they do all asphalt services. COVID-19 compliant in case you care...."

"They did a decent job. The customer service part after they're done is non-existent as they didn't provide a follow-up. A couple of weeks after the service was finished we discovered that there were some patches of grass that were turning brown and were getting worse as time went by. They also cut our phone line which took weeks to get resolved. This all seems minor but if I'm paying that much money to get a major landscaping service done I expect better service."

"We were very pleased with Got Paving. Very competitive with the pricing. Excellent results. The driveway looks great! Aaron was attentive to our questions and included our concerns in this project. The project was started on the planned date and completed the same day. We made the right choice in selecting Got Paving and recommend them."

"Hire Hernandez Stone Work LLC now!! I searched and got quotes from more than 8 companies but Pedro and his team gave us the best quote, completed the stone patio ahead of schedule, and did a great job. Their prices are affordable and you can trust them to go above and beyond. I will ask Pedro to come back and do more work in the near future and highly recommend them to everyone who is planning to put in any concrete or stone patio."

"I am extremely pleased with Brother's Pavers, Inc. from start to finish. My requested work was delivered on time as promised. I now have a beautifully paved patio and sculpted pathway that lead from my home to my She-shed. Elvis and and his crew were professional, courteous and clean. All of my inquiries regarding the work were promptly answered. I highly recommend Brother's Paver, Inc and plan to use them again for additional work in the future."

"Scheduling was fine and their initial response was good.  They have only come out to give me an estimate so far. They were unable to do the basic landscaping until the other work was done. The deal did not include the preparation of the area. There were other costs associated with the job and I had to put the job on hold. The prepared the estimate, provided it, and followed up once from what I recall. I would have liked to see them be a little more aggressive about following up to see what my needs for the job were as I had already purchased the service through a deal."
