Get matched with top asphalt driveway pros in Mount Vernon, NY

"The project went extremely well. I can’t say enough about the professionalism shown by James Walsh and his magnificent crew. I called for an estimate after reading all the glowing reviews on Angie’s List. The fact that my location was in Northern Westchester was not an issue. He was very accommodating. We spoke about what I wanted and the ideas I had and he offered his opinion and sometimes alternative suggestions based on his vast experience. Due to changes in the weather, the start date was delayed, but James kept in touch throughout. On the first day, he and his crew came out to inspect the site and take measurements. They also manually broke up the concrete walkway...with sledge hammers?. For the next three days after that, they were here every morning at 7:30 am. His crew was amazing. They and James all worked together like a well oiled machine..not wasting any time. Their craftsmanship was outstanding! You could see the respect that they had for each other. James was great at finding solutions to potential problems. With the driveway apron, there was an issue with the depth of buried Verizon cables. With no info from 811, Verizon, or the City, I was ready to give up on the project. James was very encouraging saying that they would go very slowly and carefully and make it work somehow. In the end, we had no problem with the installation and it turned out beautifully. In another instance, the stone yard did not have the pavers that I’d chosen for the walkway and James went with me to select a new paver, offering valuable advice about the preferred size and layout suitable for my space. We selected a 3 piece paver set that neither of us had intended and it looks fantastic. He discovered that, because of a height difference, we could not use the same pavers bordered by bluestone on the front door platform. We decided to just go with all bluestone on the platform to maintain a uniform height. After trying to brainstorm other options, James suggested a colored bluestone for the center. I was a little hesitant because I did not want the colors to clash. He reassured me that it was neutral enough to work. I trusted his judgement and it looks wonderful! James is a very trusting person. He asked for no money upfront or throughout the job...no 1/3 now, 1/3 halfway through, 1/3 at the end. With him it was simply he does what you ask him to do, and you pay him when he’s finished. That’s rare these days. There was no additional monies tacked on at the end of the job....even if he paid more for materials than anticipated. The costs were not passed on to the client. The job site was left immaculate. All debris was removed and even some that they didn’t generate! All in all, I would not hesitate to work with James and his crew again. They were very meticulous in every detail. You could see the pride that was taken in what they were doing. James is very lucky. He’s got one of the best crews around. At the end, he and I walked through to inspect each of the areas. James was very patient in answering all my questions and concerns. After that, it was “call me if there are any problems and I will come back and fix it” and they were gone. After having worked with James for a mere 4 days, I’m sure he meant it! You will not regret hiring Rock Solid General Contractors!"

"They were honest. The project will be to costly as the whole driveway needs replacing and I agree. I was hoping for a fix but that’s not an option"

"Professional and courteous team, respected our home. Quick response and scheduling work, within two weeks of initial estimate request. Rebuilt front steps, using existing stones. Performed work safely. Also repaired back wall, removed and replaced broken cement stucco. Work completed on time, cleaned up after work complete. Competitive pricing."

"They were prompt and thorough"

"Overall the driveway looks nice. I would have liked to see him clean the driveway and pull the few weeds out before sealing it. Or, he should have told me in advance to do this. I was not told to prep the driveway so I did not."

"Fantastic!!! Highly recommend Terra Fernandez Contracting. Price was right and workmanship was beyond perfection. I will rehire again this spring for more renovations I have in mind."

"Franklin from Villa & Sons did a great job from start to finish. He was very thorough explaining everything that he was going to do regarding our driveway. Any questions we had he answered right away via telephone. Our driveway was completed in a timely fashion and looks great. I would highly recommend Villa & Sons. We will definitely be contacting him in the future for other projects."

"We used Palmieri Landscaping to reblacktop our driveway.  Ralph, the foreman, was very easy to get a hold of and answered all of our questions.  He formulated a plan to put the blacktop down in a way that could ease waterflow into our drains.  The work was done fast and with great attention to detail.  I had a question about the work and Ralph came out the next day to see the issue and talk to me about it. VERY responsive employees and company.  It's always nice to find a contractor that actually calls you back AFTER the work is done.  The cost of this job was 1/2 of what another company had given me as an estimate.
Then, we hired them to do the spring cleanup of the yard and weekly maintenence.  The lawn never looked so good.  Their weekly cost was similar to other estimates.

"We used Anton and his team for remodeling our basement and garage after we had water damage. They put up replacement pieces of sheetrock which looked amazing. Absolutely no lines just perfectly level walls. Their workmanship was outstanding. The owner was on site a lot of the time and his team worked very neatly. The painting was simply outstanding. The room looks like brand new. Pricing was extremely fair especially for such quality, high end work. Anton and European Craftsman will be our only call the next time we need work done. Thank you Anton!"
