Scam Description
A man by the name of Joe representing City Paving and Masonry rang our bell to give us an estimate to asphalt and seal driveway. He was doing work on other driveways on our block. He gave us the estimate of $2400 which also included building a ramp into the garage. They did the work and we paid them but the next day it looked awful. We called and he said that the guys he used put down the wrong material on the driveway and that they would be back to fix it. They also got black asphalt on our fence and belgium blocks. After numerous attempts and speaking with him he just keeps lying and saying hes coming to fix it but never shows up. Our neighbors on the block refused to pay him. And, the ramp fell apart. On top of this now we have to go out and spend more money to try to find a cleaner that will take the stains off our fence. We spent $2400 for nothing. Now we have to find another contractor that can fix our driveway the right way. They take your money and do not do the job correctly. And they just dissapear. Do not ever use this company.
