## The honest read

Howards Paving handles driveway paving, repaving and sealcoating. A customer said Howard measured their driveway for a paving quote, then he and his team arrived early the next morning and finished by noon. A customer praised the crew for cleaning up after the work.

In a 2024 review, a customer said Howards first paved the parking area by the house, then returned three days later to finish the full driveway. A 2024 customer said Howie provided a quote after receiving a driveway photo, arrived when scheduled and left no mess. In a 2024 review, a customer said Howards provided a quote within 24 hours, went to town hall to handle the permit process and completed the job within a few hours.

A 2025 customer said they edged the grass alongside the driveway and sealed all the cracks. In a 2025 review, a customer said Howards' driveway-sealing quote fell in the middle of several bids, and praised the explanation of the process and what to expect in the future. A 2024 customer said Howie, his dad and their crew completed sealcoating for an entire subdivision as promised.

A 2025 customer said Howards paved over most loose and broken pavement despite promising to remove it, and that the base coat covered less than half the area being paved. That 2025 customer reported three puddles in low spots the next day, an uncut seam, debris left on their property and asphalt and trash left across the street on a neighbor's property. The 2025 customer said the owner had no interest in correcting the problems. A 2022 customer said nobody arrived for a scheduled appointment and they heard nothing afterward.

**Strengths:**
- Next morning paving — a customer said the team arrived early and finished by noon
- Subdivision sealcoating — a 2024 customer said the work was completed as promised

**Concerns:**
- Pavement preparation dispute — a 2025 customer said broken pavement was mostly paved over
- Drainage and cleanup — a 2025 customer reported puddles and debris left behind
- Missed appointment — a 2022 customer reported no arrival or subsequent contact
