"Maletese contracting should be your first choice for their services. I recently hired them to have a complete drain tile system installed and Tom was extremely helpful in helping me understand the process and what the end result would be. His crew works fast, precisely, cleanly and were very accommodating to my needs as well."

"They don't schedule enough time to provide the requested service so they have to come back. This works to their advantage because they charge you for a whole hour ($70) even if they're there just 10 minutes. They determine the time based on the GPS tracker in the service vehicle. Both times the guy sat in his truck for 30 minutes after he was finished. Work was completed but 2 sprinkler heads still don't pop up."

"Where to even start. This company is leaps and bounds ahead of the competition. I recently hired Gervais Contracting to install a new driveway and handle the dirt work for a new garage. The proposed shed pad area was about 8 feet lower than the house grade. I consulted five other excavation contractors, but they only wanted to raise the grade by 1 foot, which would have caused significant water problems in the future. When Zach from Gervais Contracting came out, he expressed his concerns about this approach. He explained that simply raising the grade by 1 foot would lead to tremendous water issues. To confirm, I had an engineer visit my house, and he agreed completely with Zach's assessment. Zach then worked his magic, finding the appropriate grade to ensure maximum watershed away from the new building, eliminating any future water problems. Zach was the only contractor out of the five who provided the right advice and solution. Despite being a young guy, his knowledge in the industry is unmatched. From start to finish, he was easy to communicate with, always responsive to my calls, and incredibly knowledgeable. When the project was completed, my driveway was smooth as glass, and the shed pad was perfectly level and ready for concrete. If I could give 100 stars, I would. This is the best contractor I have worked with in my 56 years. Thank you so much, Zach, and your crew at Gervais Contracting! Incredible services that you guys provide, Hire these guys even if they have the higher price because you cannot beat the level of knowledge, honesty and above Quality work they provide !! You will not regret it"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

To ensure you hire a reliable and experienced paving company, you should start by finding companies in your area that have at least five to ten years of experience working in your neighborhood. Next, rule out companies with poor reviews online or a series of complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau. Since driveways affect your curb appeal, you should also ask each company for references and pictures of recent work to make sure the work the company does is professional and high quality. Finally, check that the company is licensed and insured.

The best way to stop your pavers from sinking is to ensure you've properly compacted the base layers. Use your paver compactor and work over the base layer several times to create the hardest possible base. If the soil and sand of your base are compact, you’ll experience less shifting and sinking.

The material that’s best for your private road depends on your property, the climate in your area, and your personal preferences. Gravel is an affordable option, but some homeowners don’t like how it looks. It can be a pain to remove snow from, and it requires more ongoing maintenance than asphalt or concrete. However, while these other options require less maintenance and make snow removal a breeze, they’re more expensive and will need repairs from time to time. Ultimately, you’ll have to choose the road material that suits you and your property best.

Paver driveways are durable and aesthetically pleasing, but they do have a few cons. For instance, paver driveways are often more expensive than asphalt and concrete driveways. They also make it easier for weeds to grow where the separate pavers meet up. They may also be more likely to settle over time.

Installing a walkway to your home can add value, as it can make your landscaping look more intentionally designed and boost your overall curb appeal. In addition, walkways can be installed with accessibility in mind, which can be helpful for those with mobility issues or who need a wheelchair.
