AMERICAN ASPHALT & SEALCOATING

unknown

We had used them at church and had been happy with them so we decided to go with them again. They were easy to work with. Our neighbors were difficult and they were able to maintain friendly relations with them. They did a good job.

The experience was good. I went out and looked at it after it was done. The price was shared with the renter. This company came out and gave us a bid. They could do the job right away so we went ahead and did it. They set up the time to do the work with the tenant. They were there when they gave us the bid, finished the job and there were no complaints from the renter.

I had an unpaved driveway which had deteriorated to  the point that I
had to have a tow truck come out to tow me out of my driveway.  I got an
estimate from Scott Schill of American Asphalt & Seal Coating to
pave my drive up to  the back of the house at 10 feet wide.  I paid in
full in advance with the understanding that I had a dire need to have
the drive paved ASAP.  This was in spring of 2010.  He did not get out
here and we ran into the rainy season which he said he couldn't pave
until it stopped raining.  Summer of 2011 came and I had to call
sometimes daily to find out when he was coming out to pave.  He would
always apologize and give me a date certain.  I would change my schedule
and stay home... He never showed or called with an explanation.  He
finally showed late in the summer.  He apologized and said that for
having put me through such a horrible experience that he was going to
extend the paving a few feet further than what I'd ordered originally. 
He did not GIVE me anything as he narrowed the 10 feet width that I
wanted and spread it out to create a parking pad at the back of the
house.  In our original conversation for the estimate I told him that I
am disabled with severe asthma and COPD.  I have to have the garbage
truck, oxygen delivery truck etc.  come up the driveway so it would have
to be  sturdy enough to support those vehicles.  He assured me that it
would.  On the day that he paved he told me that he felt very badly
about the way he had treated me and promised to come back and seal coat
the drive at his expense as compensation.  I have not seen nor heard
from Scott since he left my driveway that day..
The asphalt is very
thin and has crumbled under the weight of my ordinary vehicle not to
mention service vehicles such as the garbage truck. 
I called Scott
at American Asphalt & Seal Coating on April 24th, 2013 to have him
come out and look at my driveway.  His secretary (Janelle) promised that
he would call me right back.  Today is May 06,2013 and I have not heard
from Scott Schill.

This was a fairly substantial project. It was not just a little stubby driveway running twenty feet from the sidewalk to the garage. This was a couple hundred feet of driveway, plus two parking pads, and one larger parking lot, all on a hillside location. Other than a critical piece of equipment breaking down, the job went quite well. Even the breakdown didn't disrupt the project in any material fashion. Also, the prep work that went into this job was substantial, and very competently done. The actual paving was somewhat of an anticlimax. Furthermore, Scott has checked back a couple of times since then to verify the integrity of the job.

The year before I had had a fly by night outfit install my driveway. At the very best it was substandard. American had to come in and tear out the old driveway and start from scratch with the new one. Their crew worked very hard for about 8 days until the job was completed. The crew looked scruffy but their work was great. I would hire them again if I needed this kind of work done.
