Had my driveway resurfaced 7 years ago, and had an extension put on. Unbeknownst to me the extension was done at less than 2 inches, rather than 3 inches, and has been cracking ever since. Meanwhile, the driveway surface has been a CONSTANT problem, despite nominal use and regular sealing. Frankly, I think we got scammed because we were women, but any company that would do that isn't above board, so there it is.

It went great! It was a 2 year process... I paid a little extra for them to dig a bit deeper and install extra gravel because I park a full size van in my driveway. My original driveway was from the builder of the house (1965?) and ruts had developed where the wheels rested. They were friendly and professional, they even went the extra mile and did more than originally planned on. I would definitely recommend them.

Every step performed in exact accordance with proposal, contract and on site conversation. Crew accidently clipped electrical line to garage, but it was immediately repaired. I was very pleased with the quality of the work. Materials were top quality. This outfit has a reputation second to none and it is well deserved. They are pros who know what they are doing.

They were excellent. Yes, it was expensive. A little high, but worth it, you get what you pay for. Responsiveness: They were very good about everything. I can't- I definitely have no complaints
Description of Work: The most recent visit from them was this past summer. It was more like the fall- it was in October, I think. I dont know how much it cost. My husband took care of it. They re-cemented the driveway. They ripped the whole thing up.

Ken's did a great job. Job took 3 days. First two days they regraded the old stone driveway & replaced some of the stone with new run-of-crush and compacted the stone. The last day they put down 2.5" of #3 binder as a base coat. They will return next year to put down a top coat. The workers were pleasant and used care around the landscape. They cleaned up after completing the job. Not cheap but seemed to be a quality outfit.

While I had quotes from a number of potential providers, and all of them priced lower than Ken, Ken provided a very detailed quote with exact specifications of the products to be used and how the work would be done. It provided an assurance that Ken and his company knew what they were doing. Quality is what I was seeking. The communication from his company re scheduling and the "do's and don'ts" after the job is done was very explicit. It was a two day job this year. One day to excavate and grade, the second to pave using "binder". Next year they will complete the job with a "topcoat". After the binder was done, Kris, the paving boss, reiterated the "do's and don'ts"and gave me further advice re the new driveway. If you want quality and very specific information of what you will get for your money I'd definitely recommend Ken's Paving.

My old driveway was chipped cracked and in bad shape. Got a few quotes, Kens's was a little bit more than another firm, but the details and description on proposal were more precise and sounded better. First visit Fall 2013 arrived when expected and removed old driveway. Then layed down water barrier, crushed stone, and pavement. Had full crew and whole job took around 6 hours, as promised. Had one minor complaint about one of the guys, which I took up with them and they addressed it. They came back next summer 2014 to finish by putting down top layer. That job only took a few hours the crew was efficient and professional. Spring 2015 still looks great, like a brand new driveway.

When removing the existing blacktop they broke a Time Warner cable that was buried in the ground. They had it repaired within about an hour! Other than that the job went perfect? Very pleased with their work so far!
Description of Work: Broke up & removed existing paved driveway, re-graded substrate, laid down fabric material & then dumped/smoothed out a truck load of gravel. They then laid down/paved a course layer of blacktop. This completed Phase 1 and, from start to finish, took half a day. Phase 2, or topcoat, will be completed 6 months to a year later (a standard practice). Phase 1 cost $2800; Phase 2 will cost $1150.00.

Absolutely the best. Had three previous driveways that I paid good money for and always had problems with. No wasted te or money here. Real pros. Bad news ( for them) the way they did things probably the last driveway I'll ever need. Great news for me!

Ken was great to work with throughout the whole process, much better than any other company I tried to just get quotes from. Ken's finished product looks much better than other driveways in the neighborhood that were done recently by his competitors, who also quoted higher prices. Be careful with other companies who started with sealing and then added on paving. Ken's team is a well-oiled machine, is on time, and has a great attention to detail. On the day of the top-coat, he let me know about an issue with the height of a small section of brick landscaping, and allowed me to put in a quick temporary fix to allow the driveway to be paved at the necessary height so rainwater will drain correctly. It's a simple enough permanent fix, I'll be able to put it the way the landscapers should have done it with minor supplies from Lowe's. He could have made it work as it was without saying anything, but the foresite is greatly appreciated. Knowing what I know now, I would always recommend getting the driveway done first, and then landscaping if you're in need of both like we were.

Everything Ken laid out in the contract he delivered on. The guy's were prompt and did a good job.
Description of Work: Dug out old driveway, put in stabilization fabric and 10" of crusher run with 2.5" of asphalt. In the spring they'll be back and fill in any low spots and apply 2" of the top coat for $1000.

The driveway preparation was an amazing job to watch. The crew is very experienced and worked like a well oiled machine. The teamwork was truly impressive. The drain improvement was not in the initial estimate, and was suggested by Ken's without extra charge. The conduit was a godsend enabling us to have the light pole wires underground instead of through the ditch! Once the asphalt was removed, it became evident the driveway bed was good and didn't need a complete overhaul. Ken's lowered our estimate by about $1700 on the spot because of this. Because the job was done so late in the year, when rain and snow interfered with the work, the blacktop didn't get laid until many days after the initial work. The delay was a bit of a problem, but unavoidable. We anticipate the final coat to go on (additional, and clear in the estimate) this spring. There are a few depressions right now from settling and cars, and hopefully these will be addressed with the final coat and won't reappear. Very happy with Ken's - professional, communicative, willing to explain various aspects, left the site pretty clean (a few cigarette butts).
Description of Work: Removed existing asphalt driveway, prepared bed for new blacktop including laying electrical conduit for light poles, invisible fence and new drain catch basin, rough coat paving.

We were expecting to have our Town finish putting a topcoat on our road during the Spring. They got delayed and never did our road until the middle of October! Ken had given us an estimate in early Spring and was expecting to do the work early Summer. During the delay Ken kept in contact with me and the Town Highway Superintendent. Ken communicated with the Super that he would need an inch or two of reveal at the road edge to be able to tie in the driveway which did happen thanks to Ken communicating effectively with the Town. Kens office contacted me the day before the work and they showed promptly with a very efficient crew. The edges look great and they tied into our stampcrete seamlessly. Ken had stopped previously to give us a recommendation on how to handle our downspout which he pointed out wouldn't do with the plastic four inch pipe we used. He recommended to use a four inch PVC pipe which we replaced. They finished around the pipe beautifully! Every review should have some criticism so the only thing would be when they blew the driveway off quite a bit ended up on the stampcrete driveway which they could have blown off into the yard. Other than that it was an enjoyable experience.
Description of Work: Ken provided an estimate to topcoat our driveway. Although not the cheapest we chose Ken's partly on the recommendation of Wilcox Construction who did our stampcrete work. The old adage "you get what you pay for" certainly proved true here!

They also buried a drain pipe that I had purchased after the gutter installers had suggested that I needed to install something to keep water from draining in front of the sidewalk during the winter months. They didn't actually agree with that assessment and speculated that it would cause erosion along the driveway. I asked them to do it anyway and will deal with that issue later. I noticed that they made it easy for me to disconnect the downspout from the drain if I change my mind and the whole crew jumped right in and buried it and made it look good. Called ahead of time and let me know when they would be there and did the work quickly and efficiently. I was impressed with the whole crew. Those guys work hard!
Description of Work: Applied a nice thick binder to driveway after extracting, applying and packing rock on the driveway. Also improved the pitch of the driveway so that it wasn't as steep. Will return next year for top coat which was also a very good price.

Simply contacted for a quote, they followed up as promised.
Description of Work: I contacted Ken's Paving for a quote to repair our driveway. They stopped by on the promised date for the quote. The gentleman was extremely honest and professional in stating that the job would not be cost effective for either one of us, simply because he did not have any other work in the neighborhood and because this job was just a repair it would not be feasible for them to do it. I appreciate his honesty and also that he took the time to stop by and look at it. I would also like to say that I called several asphalt and paving companies, and they were the only company that followed up. I will call on them again and also recommend them to others because of their professionalism.

First layer was done in September, 2012. Showed up when scheduled. Did the job in the estimated time. Crew was pleasant, clean and efficient. Very satisfied with that portion. Finished layer was laid down in April, 2013. Called me on a Tuesday to see if the next day was OK. Showed up as scheduled. Finished job in under two hours. The driveway looks great. Very satisfied.

I thought they did an excellent job. They came in. They certainly made everything I have here work a lot better which was an old, crumbling driveway. They did a lot of work. They had dig equipment to do it. They were professional and courteous, and I had no complaints. Compared to the other prices I got, their price was right in line with everybody else.

Comparing with our driveway and my neighbor's, whom used Ken's paving, we liked their driveway work better. We did not choose Ken's paving because we got a lower quote from Lewis Paving. However, we did not like the quality of work in our driveway and the job was not as good as Ken's paving. We will not use the company - Lewis Paving again.
