Description of Work: They were recommended by our landscaper to repair our driveway and improve a portion of it when we had the front of our home redone and a new walkway put in. It took them 8 months to even show up to do the job citing that they had to fulfill contracts to larger business first. My contract was signed long before, along with my deposit. We were stuck. They did not follow the design plan, tried to blame everyone else. Our landscaper ended up repairing the damage they created. It was finally paved under our landscapers watchful eye. These guys are more worried about a fast buck from a big parking lot than any job a homeowner has. I even recieved the bill before tbe job was done. If it wasn't for my landscaper and his help, these guys would have ruined my expensive and beautiful project. Steer clear.

We signed a contract in May 2014 to have our old drive removed and replaced with a new wider driveway. Originally, we were given an estimated time for this project of mid July-early August. This timeframe passed, so we called to find out when our project would be done. We were told that due to the heavy rains in May-June, several commercial projects were running behind schedule which pushed back the private home projects. The new timeframe we were given was end of August-beginning of September. We were told we would get a call the day/night before they were to come out. This timeframe has also passed so we called again to see where we were on the schedule. We have been told there are 6 or 7 homes ahead of us and the new timeframe is within the next 2 weeks. Hopefully, we will have a new driveway by October 1st. I will update this review once the work is complete. Update: Called today to find out where we stand on the schedule. We have been given a date of the week of Oct 13.

We contracted with FCI to pave our driveway which is 425' long. The original scheduled date was the week of July 4th. Unfortunately due to another contractor not completing another project at our property we had to postpone the installation. FCI worked with us to reschedule with no issues and even offered to refund our deposit because of the long period between the original scheduled date and the new planned date. The result was an install date in late October which is when our other construction project was finally finished. Our scheduled pave date wound up being the week that hurricane Sandy was impacting our area. So to complete the installation FCI prepped the drive on Friday and paved on the Saturday before Sandy struck. Had they not done this, I'm not sure we'd have got the drive paved until next spring given the weather. I truly appreciated the effort the crew from FCI put in to get our driveway paved. After 7 years of shale and dirt, it's been wonderful to have a paved driveway this winter. The driveway is nice and smooth. We opted to go with the better grade asphalt and I'm glad we did. We were quoted a thicker layer of asphalt for the same or lower price than contractors were offering. I would highly recommend FCI for driveway paving.

I got a bid for a driveway extension, sept 2011, made $1000 down payment, told it would be 3 to 5 weeks at the latest to complete. It took 6 months. Bill came, they added $400 on to the estimate. Called, Told me to " READ THE FINE PRINT ON THE CONTRACT" WOW!!!!. They can add on what ever they want to the bill. THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THEY DO TO YOU PROPERTY, "READ THE FINE PRINT" My existing driveway was left looking like garbage, all scratched and gouged up and covered with dirt. But they are not responsible. Seems they don't care about the small contracts, just the big city contracts. It is going to cost me another $600 to have someone else repair the damage done by them. They are NOT RESPONSIBLE for the damage they do. What they added looks good, but the way they left everthing else NOT GOOD. I reccomend calling someone else.
