Through a decade of working with dozens of contractors and subs, this is a new level of unbelievable! They sent staff out to carefully measure and photograph the site, we agreed on a price, signed a contract including the full scope and cost with all the details lined out (photo attached). The owner himself (John I think) shows up today with a skid steer, tore our driveway and parking area to a dusty mess, walked up to me and said he couldn't finish the job for the agreed price, and asked for $8k more, saying he'd leave if I didn't pay it or that he would come back in the winter when business is slower and he can "make more money on the job"! I've attached the contract and photos of the mess he left (the driveway was decent gravel with very little dirt or dust before he mangled it). I even offered to give him a couple grand more to finish the job as promised, but that wasn't enough! He complained that I had negotiated the price and so it's my fault and the contract isn't valid! Now I've got another half dozen subs pushed back on a complex timeline. This is costing me thousands of dollars extra and weeks of time that I don't have. I also see I'm not the first one he's done this to. Read the bad reviews and you'll see the same pattern. John was also kind enough to explain to me that a "real man" would not sue him. In my book, a "real man" does what he committed to do, even if it's less profitable than he hoped. In 20 years of running businesses, I've filed one lawsuit. This will be the second!

After rescheduling twice, they flaked. Responsive to calls but didn't follow thru on actually doing the work. Unfortunately we had to find another paving contractor. We were looking forward to working with them...

It looks great, the crew was very neat and tidy, and everyone we dealt with at the company was friendly and responsive. Neighbors have complimented how good it looks. Definitely money well spent.
Description of Work: They installed asphalt over a gravel driveway approx 130 feet long with an adjacent parking space about halfway along the distance. The work included removing excess gravel/dirt to ensure everything slopes away from the house.

Top to bottom great! My husband and I were both very impressed by John Jr (father/son operation) when he came to give us a quote. The quote was approximately the same as another highly rated contractor so we went with Rose City. When they came they were organized, efficient and as neat as possible. The lead on the job offered to do some lifting on a sunken portion of the adjacent concrete that had broken off. They built it up underneath so that the join with the paving would be more even and better looking. The end product looked great and we have been contacted by neighbors asking for contact information.
Description of Work: Repaving the large driveway for our 29 year old house and extending the area of the driveway. Moving the portion of the sprinkler system affected by the expansion.

They called before they came and met me at the property. They did an excellent job, it only took them a couple of hours. They even filled in some potholes that were not included in the initial quote. I would highly recommend using Rose City Paving!
Description of Work: I have a rental property with a long asphalt driveway, it has a lot of tree roots which makes it a bumpy ride. John from Rose City came out and talked to me about some possible solutions. He gave me some possible solutions to the issue. They gave me a quote that was almost $400 less then any other company.

It went very well in all areas...starting with a phone call that was returned within 24 hours. We couldn't have asked for more! They also stand behind their work 100%. We recommended this company to two neighbors, therefore giving Rose City Paving more business, which made us feel good! We are 100% satisfied. Thank you Rose City Paving!!

What a bunch of a*******. Our neighbor was getting some paving done. I was in the garage in my pj's (we live on a farm), and all the sudden there is this big dumptruck with a truck trailer attached entering our property. I coudn't believe it! We have a "NO TRESSPASSING" sign in plain sight. They proceeded to drive around our drive way to turn aournd. I called Rose City about this but they didn't give a hoot. I told them I had half a mind to call the Sheriff. Then later, I went to the store. Upon my return there was a huge truck on the single lane road who wouldn't move so I had to drive my van through bushes and scratch up its paint to get buy.

hamI approached the foreman with my concerns and he basically said that my complaint was without merit because traffic made noise and airplanes in area made and the basic impression i got was that he care less if his machines woke me up and about 20 other guests at the motel. I then called the office for rose city paving and left a message 3 times and was told that they would call me back and they never did. Bottom line is that rose city paving treats their customers the same way they treat the general public then this would be a good company to not to do business with
Description of Work: I was staying in a motel next to elmers restaurnat in gresham where rose city paving was doing a sealing job on parking lot and was awakened at 7:30 in morning by a loud screaming sound coming from a piece of equipment they were operating.

john showed up at the door, indicating that his crew was in the area and he was looking for other nearby jobs. we talked for a bit, then he gave me a very reasonable offer to do the work, which he wanted to start that day. i said i would think about it and call him later. i called back and agreed a little while later, but turned out his crew couldn't make it that day. and due to weather, etc, the job was postponed until the following week. he called the next week, and let me know when his crew would be there. they arrived a little later than expected, but with plenty of time to complete the project. the crew was friendly and professional, and they did really nice work. very happy with this job, and i would definitely recommend this company.
Description of Work: from the estimate sheet: -- grind out driveway's bad areas -- haul away broken asphalt -- apply tackcoat on resurface -- apply asphalt base on low gravel areas -- run 2" new asphalt on new driveway rollpack my driveway was in really bad shape, include lots of gravel filled potholes, cracks and tree root bumps.

Warning!!! I was scammed, this is how. Rose City Paving gave an estimate after an on-site inspection by John Stanley Jr. confirmed the work and area to be done. The work consisted of providing additional rock (the sub-base was set up approximately 4" below the finish grade) and asphalt pave the 'L' shaped driveway, paving to 6" below the top of the existing concrete curbs, thicken the asphalt paving to 4" at unsupported edges, slope the paving to drain to an existing curbcut, with a 2% straight cross slope prior to the curbcut, paving without any humps or bellies at most areas. Their price, $3900, was very similar to other paving companies but they could do the job sooner so they were chosen after I reviewed reports on Angie's List and the Oregon Construction Contractors Board. I asked John Jr. for a written quote and he said he would provide it and bring it out but then several days later called and said he could not come out but he would bring it the morning of the work. When he came out on the day of work, the pre-written "quote" and contract (poorly written and with numerous spelling errors, including misspelling "asphalt" twice) was for $3900, including the additional rock, but did not mention the 4" thickened edges and also did not mention the asphalt paving thickness, which was previously discussed as 2-1/2". I added the 4" thickened edge requirement and also added a 2" minimum compacted thickness for the asphalt as the equipment was driving down the road. John Stanley Sr. then came and was introduced as John Jr.'s father and looked at the job. He appeared to be in a bad mood. The curbs were marked with chalk 6" from the top. The rock base was brought in, spread and compacted. John Sr. and John Jr. operated the paving machine. Initially they paved at a fairly straight plane as was previously discussed with John Jr., but as they progressed the finished paving first had a hump in the middle and then at a more critical point was bellied in the middle of the driveway. At one point in the paving, John Sr. directed his man on the roller compactor to drive off the finished edge, which damaged their own work. Near the end of the paving, the work stopped, John Sr. left, and I was told they were out of asphalt. At one point John Jr. asked for $1600 more to complete the work, claiming they weren't making any money, and after about 20 minutes of waiting for more asphalt, John Jr. completed the last approximately 13 feet. Before they left, I directed some water down the driveway and none drained to the curbcut because the paving was too bellied in the middle at the lower section. An RCP worker came and tipped a plate compactor on end at the curbcut, making a depression in front of the curbcut without my permission, and which did not solve the drainage problem. It also damaged the concrete curbcut. I told John Jr. it was not draining as intended and as we had previously discussed. Later that day I more fully inspected the paving work, running water down at various points and found out how badly the belly was at the last 60 feet of paving directly affecting the improper drainage. Paving was also anywhere from 4-3/4" to 7" below the top of the curbs and not 2" minimum in thickness. I also noticed they had run one of their roller compactors into the side of a wood retaining wall and left a big gouge about 9 feet long. There was no cleanup. I spent several hours trying to clean off the asphalt stains where workmen had stood on or scrapped their boots on the concrete curbs. Asphalt and rock was spilled in barkdust areas beyond the curbs. I called and asked John Jr. to come out and discuss what needed to be corrected. When he insisted that the solution to the improper drainage was to put a "berm" across the driveway (aka speedbump) I said no and he said he would have to talk to his father. John Sr. called and I made an appointment to come out. Without calling to change the time, he came out early and came into the property, upsetting my watchdogs. His proposed correction to the drainage problem was to dig a hole in the middle of the driveway. When I said that was not acceptable, he launched into a tirade and screamed "You should have done it in concrete! You tried to go cheap! You tried to save $10,000!". (I had mentioned to John Jr. that some concrete bids had come in extremely high.) I told him to leave and he kept on ranting "You tried to go cheap!". If there was any doubt in my mind this was the wrong company to do any paving work, that tirade erased all doubt. I had to pay extra just for them to complete the job they were supposed to do (I added no extra work or changes), then I found out later someone from RCP had approached a neighbor to redo their driveway during the time they were doing mine. When I googled John Stanley Sr. and Rose City Paving, I found out he was fined $5,000 by the Oregon Department of Justice for "fraudulent practices" (violation of Oregon's Unlawful Trade Practices Act, case # CCV0307996) . Now I know why. Warning!!! Following a written contract, quality work and acting in a professional, honest manner are foreign concepts to John Stanley/Rose City Paving. Prior to court (for breach of contract) I cut several holes in the paving. At the bellied area where it did not drain properly it was only 1" in thickness (it was supposed to be 2" minimum by the contract)!!! The court did not believe John Stanley and awarded me damages. The Construction Contractors Board website lists this "dispute" as "closed by the CCB for other reasons", even though it was not withdrawn or abandoned.
Description of Work: Provide and compact rock base over previously rocked and rough graded sub-base. Pave approximately 2000 sf of driveway with asphalt.

We had tried to work with Member on this matter, even through the Oregon Construction Contractors Board, but Memberr was not happy with what the CCB had to say. We know as a company that we try our best to please the customer but that is not always the case. I hope that Angie list members will give us a chance, we are a good honest company that has been around for almost 20 years and we do care about our customers and we know that happy customers refer us to there friends and family.

It didn't happen they cancelled on me.
Description of Work: The service proposal was received 6-15-10. I phoned to schedule the work 7-2-10. John Jr. set the date to begin & finish 7-15-10 9am. John Jr showed up for the job 7-12-10 approx. 1:30 pm wanting to do the job. I told him I had children sleeping the noise would interupt their nap. I asked why didn't he at least phone? He told me they were in the neighbor hood and had product on their truck that could be used so he just stopped by. Again I tried to explain I had children sleeping. So then he told me they probably wouldn't come back cause they weren't working in the neighborhood on the 15th. Which I didn't think that would matter since he had schedule my job on the 15th. Wednesday morning I received a call from John Jr telling me he wouldn't be here to do the work & I should of let him do it the day he came, Tuesday the 12th. Nevertheless he would call me back & schedule another appointment. He did phone the next day & scheduled the job for 7-21-10 9 am, no one showed. I phoned and spoke with John Sr, he stated that John Jr had a baby the night before & they PROBABLY wouldn't be out till the afternoon. At that point I begin to complain. John Sr replied back at me I'm not going to do your job at all. He stated he was tired of people yelling at him. I told him I wasn't yelling, I just wanted the work done. He said their were plenty of pavers out their so I needed to go & find someone else especially since their was no deposit left. I waited about an hour and called him back thinking we would both calm down and resolve this. He still refused to honor his bid & respect the fact that I was on his schedule & they were the ones who ignored it, twice
