Erdodi Maintenance and Tuff Coat Sealcoating

I had a very strange experience with Steve Erdodi Tuff Coat Sealcoating by Erdodi Maintenance. I booked seal coating and after numerous rain delays was scheduled for Mon morning at 8:30 a.m. or first job. I rec an email stating this: "All vehicles need to be off the driveway by 8:30 am. We may not be there at 8:30 am as we do numerous jobs per day." I went outside at 7:00 to walk my dog & they pulled up in the street. I yelled to them that they said 8:30 or later & that I still had to get my car out of the garage. I thought they yelled back, "No problem". Then they turned the truck around and left! (If I hadn't been outside @ 7:00 am & they did the job, my car would have been stuck in the garage for 2 days!) When they didn't return, I called their office & spoke to Lisa 3x that day. She said that she would call me back as soon as she heard from the guys. No return call that day. I emailed. No response. The next day when I still hadn't heard back, I called & left a msg. No response. I realize that I had been ghosted by this company. Initially, I had been impressed by Steve & Lisa's timely responses to my questions by phone & email. Based on that, I hired them. Truly, I am bewildered by this lack of response & now realize that I may have dodged a bullet. If no response is their response to a scheduling misunderstanding, I can't imagine if there had been a problem after job completion??!! It's simply puzzling why they think this is a good business practice.

Went Well, Came on time and did the work.

They were timely, punctual, and very nice to deal with.

It looks so good. My neighbors had them do their driveway as well. Another neighbor is considering hiring Erdodi Maintenance and Tuff Coat Sealcoating as well. They don't use coal tar since it is hazardous to people and animals.

This is a response to the owner's claims after our review was read. Yes, peeling was discussed on our driveway. The areas that were peeling in the past have not been the issue. The sealcoating is adhering correctly in those areas which are halfway down our drive. The problem is that tire scuffs are continuing to happen, weeks after application. The picture on our first review shows the extent of the scuffs. Mr. Erdodi will have you believe that this is a peeling problem regarding our old surface. There was no peeling in the area in question. The problem is that the product is not holding up when car tires are turned to enter the garage. Mr. Erdodi's response on Angie's List was the first time that he has responded, as he did not return our multiple calls when the scuffing was continuing to occur.

Unfortunately, the product was extremely disappointing. We kept our cars off the driveway for the specified period of time, but as soon as we turned our tires on the covering, it came up and left large marks. We were also told that the product would seal small cracks, which it did not. We called the company and they did come back and reseal the areas in question and we again kept our cars off for several days. As of this writing, our driveway is a marked up mess. All turn marks are highly visible and go down to the old coating that was on our driveway. I have called the company at least 6 times trying to get someone out to evaluate the problem with no avail. As per my last conversation with the secretary, I was told that because cars have to turn to get into our garage, this is to be expected and there was nothing that they could do. We have not altered out garage entrance and have always turned our cars to enter. No other previously used product has caused these problems. I have asked to speak to the owner numerous times, without any results. We have lived in our home for 40 years and have had our driveway sealcoated approximately every 2-3 years without any problem. I would not recommend this company, or their product. Our driveway looks terrible and continues to mark up, several weeks after the application. We are out of $414.00 dollars and have a driveway that looks worse than when they started the job. The management told me that they don't get bad reviews. What that has to do with us, I am not sure. For some reason, this job did not go well, and as of this writing, they are doing nothing to make it right. The attached picture was taken at dusk, when I was able to take a picture without the intensity and glare of the sun.

Did a great job!

Very Nice Job

Not good! Didnt

This was a big deal purchase. It was good. That was last year, it's been awhile. I don't think we paid more than what was paid for the big deal purchase. I think it covered it.

I think he did a good job. I like it when people come and do what they say they are going to do and clean up after themselves. So, I think they did all that. My interaction with them was fine and pleasant. The work they did turned out good.  I think for what they did, we got a good price on it. 

I would recommend them, I would say they did a good job.

Would definitely have them do work again.

They arrived on time and sealed all cracks and coated the driveway. Did a great job.

It went well. They came on the day scheduled and were very neat. They initially came and measured, and I paid for the square footage that exceeded the offer. I recognize that sealcoating with environmentally safe products is a little more expensive, but a more healthful option

I was a bit disappointed in how many cracks were not filled. We paid extra for cracks in driveway. If they were unable to fill for some reason, we would have appreciated being informed of that. But, the driveway definitely looked better after they were done.

The young men who did the work were friendly and personable. The sealcoat is still drying, but so far the quality and workmanship look very good.

i have use them for a couple years. When i call they have been quick to respond and their price is in line with competitors.

They did an excellent job. It looks great and I'm very happy with the work that they did. They showed up when they said they were going to and they did not leave any kind of a mess behind

It was wonderful. They did a good job and I'm happy with it.

They did an awesome job.

I purchased a deal on Angie's List for $199. The owner came out to look at my driveway and confirmed that it fit within the parameters of the deal. Scheduled the service within a few days. Showed up on time and did a good job. Cleaned up well after themselves. Overall, I am pleased.

Couldn't do it since I have a cement driveway. The company was nice to let me know and requested me to get a refund.

Went well at first. I chose this company because they were an Angie’s List company, even though their price was higher than the other bids by $100! The service man was very nice and professional. However, 3 days later, big hunks of the crack filler came out, making my driveway hole-y and worse looking than before. It took awhile, but service man came out and refilled cracks and told me my driveway was just going to look this way. I called and reported this and asked Owner to get involved. Had to ask for this a second time, but it has been 2 weeks and Owner never got back to me. My driveway truly looks worse than it did before they did the work. I am appalled at the POOR customer service of this company!

Prompt follow up to online request. Scheduled the work within 1 week and performed the work as promised. Driveway turned out great even though it isn't in the greatest condition.
