Guarco Construction Driveway Paving & Snow Removal

Carl came to the home and helped me prepare a new driveway plan that both met our needs and was economical. In addition to the new driveway, we were looking to have the site prepped for a garage to be delivered. He was knowledgeable and worked with the building inspector to make sure the job was done on time and to code. Would definitely recommend! Remember cheap can turn out expensive. Make sure you do your research before hiring a paver.

Carl and his team just finished repaving our driveway, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The quote was reasonably priced, work was completed within the timeframe, and the work quality is excellent. Even the crew was great - polite, awesome sense of humor, and one of the crew performed a magic trick for the neighborhood kids. Great company and great people. I highly recommend Guarco Construction.

If you want the driveway you've always wanted, select Guarco Construction. Their people and quality are top notch. We recently had our driveway removed and replaced by Guarco Construction. It is about 150 feet long, portions of which have a significant slope. I am a Geotechnical engineer with a firm that does work all over the country, almost exclusively commercial. We work with contractors every day. In addition to designing foundations for skyscrapers, we routinely observe paving work, typically on interstate or other major highways. In a nutshell, our job is to confirm that suitable soils either exist or are placed (following removal of unsuitable soils) below pavements and that those soils are properly compacted prior to placement of the pavement surface. Without proper compaction of the soils, the pavement surface will not provide the desired performance or life expectancy. We chose Guarco because after talking to several contractors to understand their process and gauge their understanding of pavement behavior, Carl Guarco seemed to have a better grasp vs. the competition on how to deliver a superior product. I also took the time off from work to observe Guarco‘s activities from pavement removal through preparation of soils, including addition of high-quality base material where needed. I would choose Guarco again to complete a new driveway anytime given their understanding, expediency, polite, friendly and professional personnel, and first-class driveway product. Thank you, Guarco.

Carl responded promptly to our call and made an appointment to come take a look. After reviewing the damage Carl concluded that only half the drive needed to be repaved. We were not in a rush to have the job done and worked it out with Carl for it to take place later in the season. About half way through the summer Carl stopped by to tell us he was running a bit behind but had not forgotten us. It was unexpected and greatly appreciated. Workers were respectful, professional and good natured. I am not exaggerating when I say you will be as pleased with your results as we are with ours. The entire crew is conscientious and strive to get the job done right. We are extremely pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend him.

We have a long asphalt driveway that was in need of removal and replacement. Carl responded quickly to our request for an estimate and provided a competitive bid for this service. We we impressed with all the positive reviews on Angie's List. Carl and his team have lots of experience and the crew was very skilled and professional. Attention to detail and quality was excellent. They were hard workers and and worked well together. We recommend Carl and his team for your driveway project.

We now have the best driveway in the neighborhood. Excellent work in a timely manner, and at a reasonable price, Carl Guarco and crew delivered on his promise. We are very pleased.

Carl Guarco came out himself to measure the driveway and provided me with a reasonable priced written estimate immediately. Carl impressed me by his knowledge and extra attention on the pitch of the driveway on different sections to ensure proper drainage. We also had masonry work being done and Carl worked great with the masonry contractor so that he removed the old driveway prior to the masonry work and then waited to lay down the pavement after masonry work completed. The masonry/driveway seam is impressive. I would definitely recommend Guarco Construction for new driveway.

Carl Guarco, owner, was here right on time, 7pm, Friday night. He carefully inspected the crumbling driveway, discussed options, scope of work, price, guarantee, references, insurance, start and finish dates, and CT license. He covered it all. His consultative selling skills allowed me to decide right on the spot, that he would do the work. Thank you, Carl

This driveway was not only long, curved, and had a slope-it was also over 30 years old.. There was hardly a spot not cracked. Carl and his crew were prompt, professional, courteous-such a pleasure to do business with. They pay attention to detail, and take the time to do the job right! We would recommend them highly, and have already done that!

Excellent job. Prompt, courteous and professional!

Excellent work and professionalism!! Crew was great and instructions were clear. A fine job and i am pleased!!

Driveway was removed and new base and asphalt installed on time and under budget as specified. I would highly recommend Carl and his team. Carl explained every step of the process. The site was left clean and there was no damage to the surrounding lawn.

Excellent service and quality. Very professional, organized and efficient. Left work site very clean and lawn around driveway was not damaged. Carl and his team are great to work with and highly recommend.

The ground around my driveway has a lot of moisture and I suspected I had a drainage problem. I saw that Guarco Construction offered drainage solutions as part of their driveway paving services. When Carl came to make an estimate, the first thing he said is that I have a drainage problem based on the wavyness of the driveway surface and all the ridges and ruts. Carl quoted an engineered drainage solution which he has been using for several years along with repaving the driveway. Based on the paving quotes I had received from other paving contractors without a drainage solution, the Guarco quote seemed reasonable, so I hired Guarco Construction. The old pavement was removed, the drainage solution was installed under the new driveway base as specified, and the driveway repaving was done with care and attention to detail. I am very pleased with the timeliness of this job from start to finish and the quality of the results.

Carl was very prompt in responding to our request for an estimate. Once we were ready to begin the work and retain Guarco, Carl began work within 1 week. Carl explained the process every step of the way and always came to the site when he said he would. Carl was also very courteous to our neighbors. The end result is just right. We would recommend Guarco to any homeowner.

I requested a quote from Angie's List and Guardo never even responded.

Quality was my number one priority due frost heaves on my old driveway . I was really impressed how much care they put into ensuring that the structural integrity of the driveway was sound prior to pouring any asphalt. High quality job and nice folks to work with.

Carl and his crew did a fine job. I was impressed by their expertise and the quality of the work. The removed the old pavement, put down and compacted crushed rock, and paved a 165 ft driveway and large 3-car parking pad. They had the right equipment and plenty of experience to get the job done well and quickly. Thanks Carl & team.

Carl and his experienced crew did an excellent job in tearing out my old driveway and repaving. Very pleased with results and would hire this company again

Work done well despite continued rain problems. Expensive but professional.

Great working with Carl Guarco. Was very quick to respond for request for quote, and took the time to examine the driveway, explain why the asphalt was sagging and cracking in different areas and describe what recommended action was to prevent it from re-occurring in a new driveway. After proposal accepted for work, was actually sooner than originally discussed for work starting. Had the entire driveway and new fill done in a day. Few weeks later after settling, crew came and paved the entire driveway in a morning. New driveway looks great. Took the time afterwards to explain how long to stay off, and steps for hosing it down and driving on it initially to minimize any impact on the new pavement. Would definitely recommend!

excellent. Very professional. Very knowledgeable. Met all commitments and requirements.

Great experience for us and now we have an excellent new driveway. Carl quickly provided an estimate and explained well the details of this project. As the work progressed he continually updated us on issues and his plan to address them. He was very careful to make progress without affecting our day to day. Carl is extremely focused on the quality of his work. He strived to educate us about asphalt, how it will evolve and how to maintain it. Additionally he tried very hard to create the right expectations.

We hired Carl to completely remove and install a new asphalt driveway in May 2019. We have a very long driveway on a hill that was original to home and falling apart. Carl and his staff did an excellent job and we are extremely pleased with his work. Our new driveway is beautiful. He is very detail oriented and his experience shows in the workmanship. He was patient to explain all phases of the project with us. He is professional, honest and has great work ethic. We would definitely recommend Carl.

Excellent! Karl was professional throughout. Impressive honesty, speed and excellent work. I needed a length of driveway repairing. It was rutted and Karl explained that the core was damaged and needed replacing - no question of just patching and new asphalt. Step 1 was to remove the old blacktop and re-lay the hard core. Done neatly without a blade of grass out of place. Step 2 was the black top. Again very neat and seamless match with remaining drive. It was a pleasure dealing with him throughout.
