driveway paving

we had Wilson paving come to give us a quote for paving the rest of our driveway (really long). Carlo came to measure and give us a quote which we found very reasonable. the preparation crew came and graded the driveway and made the edges clean and straight. Carlo told us the paving crew would be there in 3 to 4 weeks to pave. True to his word the crew showed up on the day Carlo said they would. these guys are very professional and definitely knew what they were doing! the guys were great and the supervisor was more than patient with all of our questions on the paving procedure. the driveway looks great and after a winter of up and down temps there are no issues. thanks for a great job!

Hello Opa, yes I recall how you were looking forward to the new driveway. It was very important to us that we gave you a prefect driveway. Guy was in charge of the crew and deserves credit for his attention to detail especially for this sized driveway.Thank-you for the kind works.

Parking Lot Rehabilitation Work

I needed a parking lot rehabilitated. The lot was in very poor condition.
Wilson Paving performed their grading, compaction and paving work to give me an extremely professional job.
I would recommend Wilson Paving.

READ THIS BEFORE ENGAGING THIS COMPANY TO DO YOUR DRIVEWAY

Engaged this company to do my driveway in 2014. Gave me a 2 year warranty. Right after the driveway was completed, cracks appeared and they have been "fixing" the cracks ever since. Before warranty expired, saw cracks again and called them to "fix" it yet again. They never showed up or responded. Warranty means nothing. Terrible, terrible company.

Hi Nazmin. You are not being honest here are you? This is your second 0/10 review. As you said in your first review "Tony says he will come to fix it, and the first time was responsive." This was actually correct. We have been very responsive and attentive to your driveway. Then you wrote "Before warranty expired, saw cracks again and called them to "fix" it yet again. They never showed up or responded. Warranty means nothing. Terrible, terrible company" Really? The truth is we have been very attentive to your driveway and have been there at least four times because of the damaged cause by you allowing your landscaping contractor drive very heavy equipment/machinery over your driveway. I have told you we cannot be responsible for your negligence.

avoid at all cost

Had to Fire this company before the job was finished! I hired this company to redo my driveway, the driveway was in obvious poor shape with large deep ruts. Once Carlo accepted the job, Carlo is the manager or Forman in the Oshawa area. He made a appointment to start the job, They didn't show for the first appointment, according to Carlo due to a equipment failure, so he rescheduled, and again they did not show up, with no call to say they wouldn't be there. Again Carlo used the broken equipment excuse. Two more missed appointments before they finally showed up to start the job. At this point since I had not paid them anything other than being annoyed at all the missed appointments not much to say, other than if you try and have a conversation with Carlo, if he doesn't like the way its going he will just talk over you and try and bully you into his way of thinking.

So they showed up to take the old asphalt off the driveway , which went ok, at the end of the job the guy driving the bobcat came up to me and said that the ground under the driveway was very soft and he thought he'd tell me now before I phone to complain about it later. they threw some gravel on top and left it to sit and hopefully firm up for 6 weeks. Needless to say the driveway did not firm up ( that is not Wilsons fault just what was under the driveway), However it took 8 more missed appointments and three weeks of trying to get someone to come out to the job, never a phone call to say they wouldn't be there , stories about broken equipment, emergency jobs, sick employees they just went on and on. Finally they showed up for a appointment in the pouring rain, I feel knowing they couldn't work because they do not work in the rain. The crew that showed up refused to do anything on the driveway because they said it was too soft and the equipment would get stuck. So I called Carlo to once again try and get some sort of resolution of this, again had to put up with him just talking over anything I said. I finally told him he was fired, thats when the threats started. If I didn't pay him every penny we agreed on he would come and dump loads of asphalt garbage on my driveway I had to put up with his yelling and bullying through all this.

Stay away from this company, at no price is it worth the hassles ,threats, missed appointments and general bad business practices.

Company Response

Scott, I am very sorry to hear about this experience. I have never heard of anyone in our company threatening anyone. I was not on the site for this job (as it was in Oshawa) but from my understanding the sub-base was very very soft on this job. In order for the job to turn out properly, we needed to allow it to settle and we needed the proper conditions for this unique situation. I understand, that it can be frustrating. You mentioned Carlo said "If I didn't pay him every penny we agreed on he would come and dump loads of asphalt garbage on my driveway" - I cannot agree with this statement, because it simply is not true. I spoke to Carlo and he did not say that, nor would he - we would never tolerate that behavior at Wilson Paving.

You also said in your review "So they showed up to take the old asphalt off the driveway , which went ok, at the end of the job the guy driving the bobcat came up to me and said that the ground under the driveway was very soft and he thought he'd tell me now before I phone to complain about it later. they threw some gravel on top and left it to sit and hopefully firm up for 6 weeks. Needless to say the driveway did not firm up ( that is not Wilsons fault just what was under the driveway)". I agree with you on that. And we did everything we could to finish the job and do it properly, but we needed patience. Carlo claims you were in fact very rude to him and not willing to trust our professional guidance. Needless to say, I hope everything went well with your driveway.You walked away from the agreement and we were paid $0.00 for the work we did on your driveway - and we did not ask you for a penny. You claim "Avoid at all cost", but there was no cost to you Scott. No, not even a penny.

Driveway Paveing

I had Carlo come and estimate my driveway from the time he gave me an estimate they came and dug my driveway up and left it forever
anyway they did the driveway it started sinking 2 weeks later several call's Carlo several times he did not return my call when I called this year he told me he thought my driveway fixed itself because I gave up calling, winter was here he seemed to be gone .
This year I started calling again same stuff so I called him from my private cell he answered promised he would send a crew out last week 2 guys showed up with a tiger torch to repair cracks all they did was burn the grass along the side of the driveway. Well winter is around the corner and driveway is worse no repairs or calls. I DO NOT recommend this company.

Hello Glynn, we apologize for this experience. We did show up to fix the driveway at least once (as per your review), but please call the Toronto office to make arrangement to have this repaired under warranty. I will personally come and see the job myself and make it right. Thank-you for your feedback.

Driveway Paving

Had arranged to have my driveway torn out and repaved with this company. After a handful of phone calls we arranged a date for tear out and repave (back dated from when my house will be listed for sale). It took four tries for them to actually show up to tear out the old asphalt. It took another 3 tries for them to actually show up to install the new asphalt and because of their delays we had to push back other renos that were waiting on this to be finished. The end result was ok but I can't honestly recommend them to anyone if you are in a hurry. The supervisor who I was speaking with during the installation told me that he had customers who had been waiting 4 months for their install and that I was lucky because it happened so quickly.

Anyone who has dealt with Wilson Paving knows that we provide fast service. We don't let anyone wait 'four months' - this is misleading.

Residential Driveway Paving

I just had my driveway paved by Wilson Paving. Before the actual paving, they came by and added nice limestone base (not that fake synthetic stuff) and graded it to perfection. Today Tony came with his fantastic crew to do the actual Paving. These guys really know their stuff and each worked harmoniously with one another. All specialized professionals in their task. Every step of the way and detail was meticulously done. They made sure the slope was perfect and water tested each section to ensure rain water flowed nicely to the end of the driveway. The equipment was commercial grade and this was easily noticeable with the amazing finish when completed. The driveway looks fantastic and I cannot be happier!!! Don't pay attention to those "0" ratings as these guys don't know what their talking about. There is a reason why they have been in business for over 35 years...and my pictures show why! Do yourself a favor and give them a shout for your next project.
