I can't say enough great things about O'Brien Paving. I contact John with a request for a quote for a new driveway and the next day I had a detail description and price. His price was competitive with 2 other quotes that I received and he could schedule it for 2 weeks later. His crew showed up exactly when we scheduled. They were neat and professional and done within about 4 hours of starting. All in all....just a fantastic job!!

I got them from Angie's List. I was extremely happy with them. He was very competitive with the others but I was just more impressed with him. His professionalism and his equipment was all spotless which probably would have impressed me as well. He takes care of it. I have a friend of mine who actually owns a company but he was too far away to do this for me. He gave me what I should be looking for in an estimate and his was right on target with O'Brien so I went with him. They're very good. It took days to get back to me but with all things considered, the job was fine.

I let a voice mail earlier today and quickly received a return call from the owner this afternoon. He was very professional and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, I live quite a distance from him and he told me that his travel costs might put his price higher than other bids. I appreciated that he was honest and upfront with me. They have a term for that....its called integrity. I may not be able to work with these folks but I would highly recommend them based on my brief experience

I contacted John to get an estimate for re-grading/re-paving our driveway. John responded quickly to set a date to come see the driveway. We set a time and he never showed up. He was set up to come up on Saturday from noon to 1:00. I waited until 2:00pm. I e-mailed him to say that I needed to head out and was sorry to have missed him. I never got a response. I understand in construction things don't always run on a perfect time schedule, so I can excuse not showing up. Not responding to an e-mail though is very disappointing.

John O'brien came out a few days after I called him and asked what I wanted to have done. I went over the driveway with him and showed him some additional things I wanted to add. He wrote up an estimate and told me he was scheduling about 2 weeks out depending on the weather. He called me 2 weeks later and told me his crew would be out the next day, May 23rd. His brother showed up at 7 am the next morning with the crew. He went over the job with me and they got right to work. They had the old driveway removed in @2 hours, then removed some of the sand found underneath. They then put down stone mix and used the vibratory roller to grade and compact it. Then came the first layer of asphalt. When they were done with that, he told me that they were going to have to wait to put on the top layer of asphalt because of the upcoming rain. I was kind of disappointed that they would not be able to finish the job in one day because of the inconvenience for me of not being able to park in the garage at the end of the driveway, but they explained to me that the rain would ruin the driveway if they proceeded and I understood. The following week, they returned on Tuesday the 28th and completed the job adding the top layer, as well as a small berm that I had requested. They taped off the end of the driveway and told me to wait 4 days to drive on it. Driveway looks great and it was nice to see when it rained last night that it was graded the right way as the water went where it was supposed to, away from the house. Overall an excellent job!

I do remember this call. Only because of his name. When he called his address and phone number came through all broken up. I even went through over 40 calls on my caller I'd to get his phone number. So many people call from there cell phone and I can't get there full message because of reception. I changed my voice mail saying please leave your phone miner twice. I did that months ago. Thanks John

There price was very good but when they put the new driveway in they took out the head of one of my sprinklers and covered it off with asphalt. I felt they should have seen that when they were prepping the job. So I was disappointed with that but they did reimburse me for the cost of the sprinkler, repair, They’re not terribly responsive to phone calls and it will take a number of days for them to get back to you. That said the job seems to be of high quality except for the fact the summer has been so hot I have had some problems with the driveway being gouged when the car drives over it and turns. John said that he would come by and repair that damage when it cools down and I hope that he follows through on his commitment.

Response from O'Brien Paving Inc
We added on to his driveway for more parking. We spent a lot of time searching for the sprinkler heads and removing them which isn't our job. The customer was away on vacation when we did the installation so we didn't have access to to turn the sprinklers on to find them in the ground. I asked them to get them repaired and ill pay for it. And the tire marks that appeared from them turning there wheels while the car wasn't in motion will always leave marks on a driveway that's only a week old. We went back and fixed them and he's happy again. But he himself should have reported the review again say we fixed it. Thanks. John

Great job. John was very prompt in getting back to me regarding questions and starting dates. The crew was great very courteous and did an outstanding job. They did a great job keeping the street clean and passable for the day they were here.My neighbor and I had our driveways done at the same time so it was a much more efficient operation for the company.I felt that we were given a good price to have both driveways done at the same time.I would recommend O'Brien Paving to anyone looking to have their driveway done.
Description of Work: Great job. John was very prompt in getting back to me regarding questions and starting dates. neighbor and I both had our driveways done on the same day. The work was done exactly as John outlined in the estimate. There were no surprises. We were told both would only take a day and it did!

John and his crew were excellent to work with from estimate to completion. By far, he offered the best price around and really knew what he was talking about. He and his crew were punctual and very professional. They cleaned up completely and there were no problems. John went out of his way to be sure we would have a new driveway before the snow arrived. I have highly recommended O'Brien Paving to many others since and I will continue to do so!

We made arrangements for it to be done the weekend of the 4th while we were away. When we got back it wasn't done - apparently the asphalt place had been unexpectedly closed. No problem, we rescheduled. Then it became extremely difficult to get hold of them to pin down an exact date - many days of frustrating telephone tag. At one point their voicemail was full! Not a great way to run a business I would have thought. When they cam though they did a great job very efficiently, including removing a crumbling concrete pathway down the side of the house. It was hot so we didn't park on the driveway for a full 5 days to give it chance to harden up. We were a bit nervous given some of the other reviews but our neighbor, who recommended them, said they are responsive to clear up issues, and right now everything looks fine. So they get a 'C' for the frustrating telephone tag, but an A apart from that. I'd use them again.
Description of Work: Once I got hold of John he came quickly and gave a very reasonable estimate for our 15 x 50 level rectangular driveway.

Arrived as promised, did the job quickly, paid them and that was it. However, after the asphalt dried, noticed some "holes" in the driveway, as well as what looked like tire marks. We did not park in the driveway from 11/9 (date service performed) until 11/13 (basically, Monday to Friday). Began calling John on Wednesday, 11/11 to tell him about problems. Stated he would come out the next day (mix up there, I thought am, he meant pm) I called to find out the status of his arrival, said he would come out the next day. On Friday, I called to confirm his arrival, never heard back. Left several messages from Friday, 11/13 until today, 11/18 with no word from John O'Brien. I am now left with a flawed driveway that will no doubt see some serious issues once the snow and ice begin. Was looking forward to working with a company that guarantees their work 100%. Unfortunately, I still am.
Description of Work: Driveway was repaved (torn up and done from dirt up).

I was impressed by John's and Brian's (his brother) professionalism on the job. They both know how to do the job the right way, and they exhibit pride in their work. All members of the team (6) worked together to make this job go quickly and well. From first meeting with John, to completion of the job, I could not be happier. My neighbor (who shares a small part of the driveway) is also very pleased with the quality of the work.
Description of Work: John O'Brien came to our home to provide a quotation for removing our decaying concrete driveway. He came when he said he would, provided the estimate on the spot, and was very helpful and friendly. After getting four other quotes for the job, we decided to go with O'Brien Paving. John gave me a feeling of confidence and trustworthiness (not that some of the other companies didn't). On the agreed-upon day, John and his crew arrived on-time and ready to go. Everyone knew how to do their job, and the driveway was finished the same day. It should be noted that our driveway is long and narrow, and there is not a lot of room between our house and the neighbor's. The team worked quickly and carefully to protect both houses. We now have a beautiful new driveway that makes me very happy. The old concrete one was a mess, with heaves and breaks in the surface.
