Description of Work: Driveway Specialists replaced our driveway and didn't accept payment until the job was done. They did an excellent job at an excellent price, and the owner was on-site at all times. They also have followed up to make sure everything was good when doing work in the area. I would highly recommend them

It didn't Go at all.
Description of Work: I contracted with this company in a signed Agreement on May 6th, 2014 to remove and replace an old driveway and repair my front walkway. On June 24th, I canceled the contract when the Supplier responded to my latest request for a Start Date by commenting "it's very hard to predict a start date". I was away for 2 weeks during this period, but each time I contacted the Supplier, they reset the clock and told me it would be 3 more weeks to start the job. I was never once contacted by the Supplier after I signed the Contract and had to chase them multiple times to attempt to move the Project forward. I wasted 8 weeks on an important project with this Company.

2 paver walkways and a patio. Driveway. Overall, it went well. They were on time and the job was done as expected. I'm happy with the quality, the cost and the overall value. They were a bit slow coming back to finish something that wasn't their fault. It caused them to come back and do extra work and even though it was a little extra work, they did not charge us more. They were fair and I would consider using them again in the future.

Responded very quickly to give me a quote. Told me two weeks, and they wound up coming in 8 days. That was nice. When digging up the driveway, they found clay underneath. It had to be dug out and replaced by gravel. That added about $600 to the cost of the job. I was not happy with that expense, but I am glad that they notified me of the problem. I believe the last time the driveway was done before I owned the house, the issue was ignored. Which the reason my driveway was such a rutty mess. Driveway specialists were very professional and upfront. I would use them again, and recommend them highly.

Thank you for your honest review, we aim to be earlier rather than later when it comes to completing jobs, especially when running into problems like this. Not only does it cause a further expense on your behalf it also causes further timeframes which can delay other projects. It is stressful but we aim to complete everything to the highest of quality, which means sometimes things can't be predicted. We love surprises and hope you remember us for any future asphalt work. Regards, TDS

We have a one-car wide driveway, we need to expand to install a two-car wide driveway, and need to rebuild the stone retaining wall on one side. Jame and Waynn Fylnn, the wonders of the driveway spacialists came to gave us an free estimate which we think it is reasonable. They also offered us to fix the retaining wall on aother side, and put the limestones on the steps. They took care of everything including the permits. When the town requires to notify the neihbors. They helped to go to the neihbors to get the signatures. We have two trees which need either to be transplanted or removed. They transplaned one of the trees, and removed the other one. They did a lot of extra work to make sure we are satisfied. We would reccmend for their services.

It went very well. I was very concerned about the property line and James measured and and remeasued at each step to make sure we were OK. This is a family run business that is a professional, responsive and well oiled machine. I was impressed with how well they worked as a team and how clean they kept the job site. I would hire them again in a minute for asphalt or masonry.

They were very good. They had a little trouble with the sub-contractor and it took a little longer than expected. They did eventually put in the walk and then there was a problem and they did come back to fix it. They did a nice job and they were more than reasonably priced. We are going to be doing some more work this summer and will have them come out to give us a quote.

After six months a large and deep hole developed. The contract specifies a lifetime warranty but they would not come back to fix even it after several phone calls and emails. Additionally while they were working on the project they used and broke my new garden hose and attachment. Which they never reimbursed me for.
Description of Work: I have an asphalt driveway that needed to be repaved and widened. The Driveway Specialists removed and replaced the blacktop.

The Driveway Specialists did a fantastic job. They got out here to take a look at it real quick. They called me the same day I emailed them. They came out and gave me a quote right on the spot and then when I called them back and then they put me on the schedule for 2 weeks later. They called 2 days later and said a job canceled and could fit us in. They did great. They cleaned up after themselves. Their price was in range. If I do pave again, I would use them.

Thank you for your review, sometimes things work out well and sometimes we have a few hiccups in this case, things worked out well for you due to a cancellation and we are happy that you could accommodate us in such a short timeframe.

The house across the street from my Mom was having their driveway done by The Driveway Specialists (TDS) Norwood MA. They offered to do my Mom's for $2600 if I signed up while they're there. I, of course, was very skeptical that it was "drive by paving". I subsequently talked to one of the business owners who was also working. I also talked to the daughter of the woman who owns the house. She checked out these guys on Angie's list (one positive review) and BBB (one issue that was resolved to customer's satisfaction) as well as references from 7-8 houses they've done in the neighborhood. They take out the current asphalt from driveway, grade, put down layer of reprocessed gravel (5-8" as needed) then 3" of asphalt. Would keep the dimensions the same, that is, not expand at all. We agreed to have it done. Due to weather, they didn't start until they were able to do so. In the mean time they signed up 3 more neighbors.They were responsive. You don't pay until the work is done. Very professional in all aspects. Answered all questions graciuosly and ensured I was satisfied with the answers. Did the little extra things like shaping the bottom of the driveway, crisp edges along grass, rolling the top of the driveway to match the garage floor height, cleaned up, 3" of high grade asphalt instead of 1.5" of low grade/1.5" high grade. They ended up doing my mom's driveway and 3 of the next door houses as well as the original house. It was a win-win-win-win-win-win. 5 houses got new driveways and TDS was productive and efficient being able to do the 4 extra driveways at the same time. This allowed them to offer the lower prices to us. Their quote was 20% lower than the lowest quote I had received last year when I first started looking to have this done.The whole experience from start to finish was outstanding. The toughest part of the whole deal was understanding their Irish brogue... :-)
Description of Work: - Ripped up old driveway- Discarded all old material- compacted- added crushed stone/gravel as needed to correct heigh- compacted- laid asphalt- rolled- complete cleanup of all debris (looked cleaner than when they arrived)

The Driveway Specialists arrived on time and performed all work as stated in the proposal, James and Wayne are not only the owners but also do a large share of the work themselves. They provided a very competitive quote right from the beginning. All questions were answered in a timely manner and all calls and emails regarding schedules and quotes were promptly returned. The Driveway Specialist's workmanship and quality were highly satisfactory and I certainly would recommend them for any and all driveway paving projects.
