Bob Muldoon Paving

Seventy-seven Google ratings averaging 4.9, and nearly all of them are about the same thing: a driveway, torn out and replaced in a day. The crew turns up when it said it would, the old asphalt goes, the new goes down before they leave — the story repeats through 2025 and into this summer, usually with one name attached. Phil comes out for the estimate, answers the questions, and stays reachable afterwards. The Lowell company handles more than flat rectangles. A June 2026 customer had a repave involving grading, banking and a curve running uphill; a June 2025 reviewer used them for regrading and catch basins alongside the paving; a May 2026 homeowner had stonework done with the driveway. Its BBB listing adds cement walks, berm, retaining walls, drainage, seal coating and line striping, and the page carries an A+. Angi and HomeAdvisor both sit at 5.0 across sixteen ratings each. Schedule and price come up as often as the finish. A May 2026 reviewer said the crew arrived on time, did exactly what the quote specified and finished ahead of schedule; a June 2025 customer said the job landed on time at the quoted price with a follow-up call after; a July 2026 homeowner watched the crew work through 100-degree heat to finish an old broken driveway. The dissenting accounts deserve a read before booking. In a review posted in July 2025, a customer described a summer 2024 job widening a driveway that failed inspection for being pitched the wrong way, had to be ripped up and reinstalled, and came back with asphalt pieces coming loose. In April 2025 someone reported a 9–10am appointment with no show and no call, and no answer when they rang back. And a July 2025 commenter on Birdeye, citing 45 years in construction, blamed poor workmanship on the company having changed hands since Bob Muldoon himself ran it — an assertion about the business worth putting to them directly. The written history does show the shift in names: the 2014 and 2016 accounts deal with Bob Muldoon personally, right down to him pulling the city permit, while the recent ones belong to Phil and his crews. For a residential driveway, walkway or patio around Lowell, this is a well-documented crew with a long record and a fast turnaround. Get pitch and drainage spelled out in writing before anyone digs — that is the detail behind the one substantive complaint here — and confirm your appointment the day before.
