Best asphalt driveway pros near Cape May, NJ

"

I am writing this recommendation for Procrete and their owner Dave McBride. I decided to engage Dave and Procrete after searching for a hardscape / paver contractor local to my summer house in Margate. There are many contractors who will work at the shore, but my preference was to find a company based in the area vs. an hour away.

Dave was very professional in his approach, and consultative. I shared with him what we were looking for, to completely rebuild our back yard, from 50 year old ugly cracked concrete and a chain link fence to a new vinyl fence and pavers.

We shared our vision, and Dave’s firm provided a sketch of what the back yard could look like with a specific paver design, which we ended up going with – while making a few changes along the way.

We also had Dave install a built-in gas firepit that has exceeded our expectations. It is now the central point of our new back yard.

While at it, I also had Dave replace my old cracked driveway with new concrete and pavers for my front walkway. AS his team was already at my house doing a job, the extra cost was not prohibitive.

My biggest concern going in was using a contractor that I did not have a previous referral for. Dave provided referrals plus a list of properties in the local area that he did work on.

I must say, the work was top notch and we are thrilled with how our back yard came out. I had no less than 4 neighbors comment on the work they were doing and their commitment to doing a good job vs. a fast job.

I have been screwed before by contractors that finish the job 80-90% and then never come back to truly complete the job. Dave even came back to finish all of my items on a punch list after the job was done.

I 100% recommend Dave and Procrete for hardscaping, paver and concrete work.

"New 2 car concrete driveway with a paver border and new sidewalk in front of the house were installed. Justin and his father, Frank completed the job in 4 days. They removed an old pebble driveway and an old 82 ft wide concrete sidewalk. They selected a great paver to match the existing paver walkway to the side porch. Meticulous job start to finish and a very reasonable cost compared to other local bids. Gave accurate quote and start and finish dates."

"Alex, arranged the work to be done quickly and the cement work was done 5 star. I had almost 200 feet of sidewalk, 2 driveway aprons, driveway and gravel driveway. The concrete was done wonderfully. Initially the filled the sides with top soil but did not tamp. I have ankle turning trench along the sides of the sidewalk. They did not fill more stone when the took the forms out. I have gaps all long the edge of the gravel driveway, which they were paid to fill. They used my hose without permission, then did not put it on the hose reel, left it in the mud. They used my neighbors hose and water without permission. At the end of my driveway at my gate entrance they put topsoil. I had flagstones down. Instead of picking up the flagstones, they threw topsoil on top of them. Again excellent for their concrete work, but insist the tamp down the dirt where the concrete wood forms are located and inspect every inch of their finish work, which is what I should have done. Just beware of their slo"

"Over the past several years we have contracted with Joe to lay stone, repair the roof over our deck, upgrade our kitchen and bathroom and most recently install laminate floors. In each instance we have been extremely pleased with the end product. Joe's team does a great job and we have found Joe's prices to be very reasonable. In addition to the quality of the work, Joe is also very helpful offering suggestions as to which products to choose, how the work should be done, etc. We thank our lucky stars when we came upon Joe's name on HomeAdvisor. I would highly recommend him."

"AMECAC did an excellent job. First came with catalogs and 100’s of personal pics of his work. Pedro and his son were on time and completely the job as promised. Highly recommend them!! Will definitely have them back for some other work very shortly."

"They corrected many trim issues around my front door and did extensive finish carpentry. Extremely pleased with all the work. Have a vacation home in Brigantine and thrilled to have found them."

"John Powell was great to work with. He was professional, honest, on time, affordable, and personable. John resealed our church parking lot and painted new lines. I highly recommend him and would do business with him again!"

"R.B. Masonry does quality work, would hire them again for any and all masonry needs."

"They did a terrific job on my driveway. Very nice people. I recommended them to some of my neighbors and they were also very happy with the quality of work. Will definitely have them back for other projects. Terrific!"

"mr laisi responded quickly on line, and actually called me back. i did not use him because the man that was supposed to do the job for my neighbor showed up - (2 days late). he was removing the snow as i was trying to get some help on line. i would recommend mr laisi just based on his promptness and speaking to him on the phone. i'm sure he does a good job also. i will contact him again (for myself) for snow removal and will keep him in mind for any other project in his area of expertise. thank you."
