## The honest read

Driveways are the job here. American USA Paving describes itself on its website as a family-owned Glastonbury, CT paving business operating since 1970 and spanning three generations, and it lists Glastonbury, Colchester, Middletown, East Lyme, Manchester and East Hartford as its service area.

A recent customer said George expected a two-day driveway replacement, the driveway was done in one day, and the job was moved up from August to June 30 after cancellations. A recent customer said a 30+ year driveway was replaced on a deep base and a sidewalk was added. A recent customer said Mark and his crew ripped up two layers, graded and rolled the existing base, and packed down crushed stone. A recent customer said Mark and his crew removed a big slab of concrete at the base of the garage that other companies said needed a mason. A recent customer whose driveway the business installed about 20 years ago said they sprayed a tar based sealer and fixed cracks brought on by a tree root.

A recent 4-star customer said a driveway quoted at $10,500 for 2,500 sq. ft. was re-measured at 3,000 sq. ft. on the day of work, and a water sealant offered that day added $3,000, for a total over $14,000. That customer advised making sure the quote is complete and binding. A BBB reviewer called the job sloppy and said the professionalism was lacking.

Connecticut lists its home improvement contractor registration, HIC.0539834, as active, held by American USA Paving LLC.

**Strengths:**
- One-day replacement — a recent customer said the driveway was done in one day
- Concrete slab removal — a recent customer said Mark's crew removed it
- Tar-based sealcoating — a recent customer said they spray a tar based sealer

**Concerns:**
- Final price — a recent customer's $10,500 quote ended over $14,000
- A sloppy job — a BBB reviewer called the work sloppy
