Last 6 months: 13 reviews, 1 negative. ## The honest read GW Paving holds a 4.8-star Google rating from 99 ratings, and the company says it has over 40 years of experience in asphalt paving, seal coating and asphalt maintenance for residential and commercial projects. A recent customer says the GW crew removed 25-plus-year-old cracked pavement, regraded the driveway and paved a new one with improved pitch and drainage, and that rain water now runs off the pavement. A recent customer describes a total excavation rebuild of a driveway, with Gary, Jennifer and their team meeting the customer's schedule and layout requests. A recent customer says Gary's wife, Jennifer, coordinates the schedule and payments, and that the driveway was finished in one day. A recent customer who had GW remove and build a new driveway a few years earlier says the company has now sealed it for the first time, with Jennifer fitting them into late-season scheduling. A 2025 customer said Gary Wells and his team, Bob and Jordan, re-surfaced the side garage, repaired two additional areas, and completed crack-filling and seal-coating in a single day. A 2024 customer said the crew graded and paved a driveway of over 6,000 square feet in one full day. A recent customer says they called and emailed several times, were promised a next-day quote visit, and no one showed up. A 2023 customer said the regrading was done well but the berm by the road was left at about half an inch instead of the 4 inches on their drawing; water came over it in the rain, and the promised return dates passed with no work done. **Strengths:** - Drainage fixed — a recent customer says rain now runs off the new pavement - A one-day driveway — a recent customer says theirs was finished in 1 day - Seal-coating and repairs — a 2025 customer said all were done in one day **Concerns:** - A missed quote visit — a recent customer says no one showed up - A low berm — a 2023 customer said promised fixes never happened ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - 4.8 stars on Google from 99 ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=GW%20Paving%20Inc&query_place_id=ChIJxUFsv2Mk4IkR3Rbewh4UGtk) — “Google: 4.8★ from 99 ratings” - The company says it has over 40 years of experience in asphalt paving and seal coating _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://www.gwpavinginc.com) — “About (self-reported, verbatim): GW Paving delivers full service asphalt paving and maintenance with over 40 years of experience.
