Hard Top Paving is fully licensed, insured and bonded, and all of our professionally trained staff members have the skill and dedication to complete your job with confidence and the attention to detail that it deserves. 5 employees. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. Additional phone - (843) 285-7184.
"A+ Excellent! 100% Exceeded Plymouth Hidden Creek condominium expectation's. Hard Top Paving is a canton, MI company that pays attention to detail. This was true from the pre-work site visit which was done with honesty and integrity. Patching a few areas would have cost less and wouldn’t have lasted but a few years. Joseph put the customer (HOA) best interests first. Our main road was rotting and wouldn’t last which meant repair would be a waste of HOA funds. Joseph was the only person out of 4 firms quoting who pointed out the entrance from North Territorial road also needed seal coating. The competence demonstrated from a 30 minute walk through of the road and driveways set HTP apart from 3 other bidders. Joseph provided written estimate and modified it with extra detail that I requested. It’s difficult to find competent firms and people with integrity. Hard stop Paving completed work within 3 weeks of signed contract and our roads and driveways look new and were paved to perfection. Joseph’s father runs the crew with Joseph’s help and has 4 decades of experience. Their crew includes a 35 year employee that brings competence AND diversity to the job site every day. They did not rush, they were meticulous from excavating the old surface of the road, obtained asphalt material with proper color match to driveway seal cost and the place looks new. Crack fill on driveways was thorough which enabled double spray coating driveway surfaces in a single application. The value that Hard Top Paving provides (function divided by cost) is the highest of any asphalt paving firm I have dealt with over the past 40 years. Hard Top Paving is used by Chick Filet in South Carolina during winter months (Nov-Apr). It’s easy to see why. Contact Hard Top Paving now for estimates of work to be done in Michigan May-Oct 2025CY. Hurry while supplies last as their book of business grows quickly."

"Engaged with Evolution drafting to get plans done for my sons home after it was damaged from the 2 hurricanes in Florida. We agreed on pricing and everything seemed great and we were close to finalizing the plans but the local city needed the plans signed and sealed. Evolution Drafting said they could provide this service for an additional cost of $1,100.00 which was paid on 3/20. They stated it should only take a few weeks to get done. Nothing ever was delivered and after numerous texts and emails, I was promised the final signed and sealed plans by 4/30. Well 4/30/2025 has come and gone and I still have not received our plans. Rueben has continued to stall me by stating he is trying to get these done ASAP. It has reached a point that I feel they are never going to get us the final plans as we have asked and paid for. Started out as a great experience but has turned into a nightmare for us and our son and his wife."

Thank you for your interest in Fence Bros! Here at Fence Bros we take pride in our work. Our team works hard to satisfy every customer with a beautiful fence. We specialize in every type of fencing residential and commercial. We guarantee our work. We offer free quotes at anytime!
"Everything was fine in the beginning with Logan. He provided us quotes for deck replacement (boards and railings) for $16,000+ and vinyl private fencing for $11,000. We found someone who offered a better warranty on the composite decking for a cheaper price, so we went elsewhere for this thankfully. Our yard was already partially enclosed due to our neighbors having fencing, so we only needed roughly 208 ft of fencing to finish off enclosing the yard. There were a few red flags with Logan that should have been obvious signs to go with another contractor. After our initial quote for both deck and fence, he returned 30 days later to do measurements AGAIN on the deck and showed up alone this time instead of with his buddy. He claimed he "couldn't get ahold of his partner anymore" and had to find someone else. We were quoted a 2 day turnaround time for the fence. When installing the fence, he ran into issues we addressed many times in our consultations which were slopes/hills in our yard. We have dogs so our primary reason for wanting the fence was to keep them enclosed. The first problem area he ran into he contacted us about. We approved the gap between the ground and bottom of the fence in this spot due to the nature of the uneven ground. Our expectation moving forward with the rest of the fence per our conversations was that the rest of the fence was to be installed close to the ground and flush on top and flush with the ground. He agreed many, many times this would be the outcome. We came home to 3 more additional panels that he never consulted us about that had over a 9 inch gap from the ground to the bottom of the fence. These were already concreted in. His recommendation was to place flowers in this gap as if that would prevent my dog from crawling underneath if they desired. It was clear it was just laziness, because if they dug deep enough the fence could have been placed lower to the ground with a few minor adjustments to the actual panels and it would have been fine. After seeing the additional gaps left that we did not approve, we asked him to redo those specific panels to our expectations. He refused. They started work on Thursday (not really because they 'forgot all of their needed tools') and the fence installation didn't begin until Friday. By 6pm Friday they completed majority of the fencing, but had to return Monday because he didn't calculate the material correctly so they were short. So much for a 2 day turn around time. This was even more infuriating after finding this out along with seeing the additional gaps that were left. To save time out of our own busy lives, we decided to not take him to court (although we should have) and had him finish the rest of the fence on Tuesday and paid him off because at this point we just wanted it done. As a business owner myself, the customer service was AWFUL. The communication got worse as the days went on and again, many many red flags. If I could go back and choose someone else to complete this work, I would 100% rightfully so. We had to spend more $$ out of pocket to fix the gaps after paying 11 grand. 10000% DO NOT recommend Logan and whatever buddy he chooses is available at that time to complete work with. Very inexperienced business owner and hope others can avoid this mistake as well."

I�m Rufino and I am a designer with a range of construction skills. I have been on a construction site helping my dad since I was about 3 feet tall. I enjoy fine carpentry and furniture building, excel at residential design and remodeling, and make a living doing it all. I have a Bachelor�s degree in Architecture from Lawrence Tech where I was trained to think outside the box, question the rules, and dig deeply to find the best design solution for the problems at hand. Look around my website and give me a call to have me work on your next project.
"We worked with Rufino to update the bathrooms and closets in our home master bath/closet and two upstairs bathrooms and closets. He is a True Professional in many ways. He worked with my husband and me to create a modern design that encompassed our ideas. He introduced us to options that are more current in design as well. He created 3D images of our proposed master bathroom and custom closet using our material choices. These images were incredibly helpful in understanding what the finished rooms would look like. His calm demeanor put me at ease with the project and took away my reservations of having our home renovated. Also, having workers in your home can be stressful and Rufino completed the work in the time proposed! Most importantly, I feel Rufino is very trustworthy and was very accessible to me during the project - answering my questions and communicating the next steps in the work being done via cell, text and email. Our bathrooms and closets were finished with detailed workmanship and expert service. He worked hard to make sure we were totally satisfied. They look simply AMAZING. We look forward to more projects with Rufino and Labra Design Build!"

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
Concrete repair costs range anywhere from about $0.10 to $0.15 per linear foot to fill minor cracks, to about $6 to $14 per square foot to replace damaged concrete slabs. Repair costs vary widely depending on the size and type of work needed. For example, replacing 100 square feet of driveway will cost between $600 to $1,400, on average.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
Concrete contractors typically charge anywhere from $6 to $14 per square foot. Cost factors include job size, site prep, base material, accessibility, your location, concrete finish, and concrete thickness. Removal of existing concrete, asphalt, deck, pavers, and grass will cost anywhere from $1 to $6 per square foot. Homeowners can often save money by removing and disposing of existing pavers, decks, and grass. Breaking up and hauling away concrete and asphalt is difficult and time-consuming without the proper equipment and may be worth having the pros do that work.
