Get matched with top paving pros in Kensington, MD

"We used R.Georges Paving to re-pave our fairly long driveway (300+ ft long) and were very happy with the results. Ritchie and his crew were very responsive, professional, friendly and always on time. After the job was finished, we had one little issue and they immediately came back and addressed our concern. They also returned about a month after the paving and seal coated the driveway. And again, the results were excellent. We highly recommend R.Georges Paving and Seal Coating."

"I called to get an estatment on having my drive way seal coated . They came that evening to measure and look at the drive way - little cracks, large cracks- and gave me a price for oil based sealer which I had never used before. The price for oil base was more than water based but I thought it was worth it. They did the job in 2 days, and did a great job. Filled all the cracks and left everything neat and clean. I will use them again."

"Excellent job!! It was a pleasure working with E. Stanley Asphalt Paving. Joe did the estimate and was my contact and was there with the crew when the job was done. When Joe left during the paving, after having discussed the plan and what was being done, he introduced me to his father who stayed there until the job was done. Before the repaving the driveway was in bad shape and no work had been done on it for over 35 years but it now looks great! This is a top notch multigenerational family business. I highly recommend them."

"Thank you Lily & Team: I contracted with MA Cleaning and Landscape to provide a hardscape solution under my new deck, including a concrete pad and decorative pebbles. They consulted with me on construction day, and completed the $2900 job nicely in 2 days. Being pleased with their work, I asked for help designing a landscape project along a 50 foot stone wall. That $2200 job was also done very well in one day. When issues arose, Lily handled them like a boss. I really appreciated her calling me directly to offer a solution. Lily was very kind and highly professional, which makes a huge difference with me. I am posting this review because I want people to know they can trust lily and her team to do the right thing. I can also highly recommend them for both hardscape and landscape design. I had a 12 year relationship with a prior landscape designer until she retired, and hope to continue using this company for garden enhancement for many years to come. Regan in Clarksburg, MD"

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!!!!

"Today, here in West Ocean City, Devon and accurate Asphalt did an outstanding job for us, and our neighbors, as you can see in the below pic. Their crew were professional, friendly and cleaned up perfectly. AND.. the prices were very competitive. We highly recommend their services."

"The crew was professional, on time and did great work. When done I thought we needed to increase the dimensions and they did this with some extra effort because of having to do fresh excavation next to existing tile. Overall a very good to excellent result."

"Customer service is outstanding. Their work is impecable."

"Mr. Lazaro did a wonderful job on the steps. They look brand new! One of his colleagues took down our old retention wall and rebuilt our new stone wall. It looks amazing and we couldn't be happier with the service. Mr. Lazaro was great communicating about arrival times and providing alternate ideas/options for the design of the retaining wall. He provided pictures and helped point us in the right direction! We will contact him again for our next masonry job! Thanks!"

"Mr. Zweemer himself estimated, provided input, and did the job on time and with an extraordinary degree of professionalism. I will ca=ll again if I need similar service as well as recommend Zweemer's Paving and Sealcoating to anyone I know needing this service."
