I had some serious problems with my driveway and pavemaster solved them. The driveway had settled badly over time and was funneling water towards my home. This was causing all sorts of short-term problems, and long-term risks. After meeting with over 10 different types of contractors (drain specialists, general building contractors, pavers, etc.) I decided on a technical solution proposed by pavemaster . I met with jay 3 times. He (and the team that scheduled his visit) showed up on time, communicated well and did a great job of discussing my needs and working with me to develop a proposed solution. We decided to re-grade the entire driveway, install a channel drain, and build several strategically placed berms. The primary goal was to improve water management and funnel it away from my home and down the hill to a drain. Communication and coordination needed to schedule the work was done by the office staff and they communicated well and clearly. The crew that did the actual work was also very professional. They showed up with high quality equipment and clearly had tons of experience. Like all jobs, there's a degree of uncertainty going into the work but they managed the surprises well. They ended up doing the work over two sessions due to unforeseen circumstances which caused a minor (8%) cost increase over the proposed price. This was all discussed with me and should not be viewed as a 'negative' because it was clear they were focused on delivering a high quality, durable solution. The final product is excellent and I'm very happy. We've had several torrential rains the past few weeks and I've enjoyed (greatly) watching the water stream into the drains and away from my house. Pavemaster was not the cheapest proposal I received, but given the quality of the technical proposal and the outstanding communication throughout the process I felt comfortable that this would be the best value to me given the importance of this work. Great job!
