Sam Patterson & Sons Paving is a Rockport, Maine paving company that describes itself as a family business, fourth generation owned and operated, working since 1946. A recent customer said their driveway had been a thin layer of asphalt over a gravel drive, and that the finished product exceeded their expectations. A recent reviewer said a new driveway installation was finished in less than one day, and that Sam was accommodating when they asked for an adjustment to the original plan. A 2025 customer described an old two-car parking pad removed and redone: the old paving cleared and hauled away, gravel spread, asphalt laid and edges refined, with the reviewer timing the whole job at one hour and 25 minutes. A 2025 reviewer said old crumbling pavement and clay subsoil were removed, a stone sub-base laid and compacted, and new asphalt put down before lunch, at a price they called very reasonable. A 2025 customer said the original quote was professional and outlined in detail what they do, and that Sam Jr was on the job working as hard as his crew on a drive of about 4,500 square feet. A 2025 customer said rain streaked a fresh driveway sealing and they came back the next morning to seal the whole area again. A 2023 customer said they came right back to fix a spot rain had washed away from a sealing, though that reviewer also called the job a bit expensive. A 2023 reviewer said they paved their church driveway free of charge so people with mobility challenges could reach the elevator door. A 2016 HomeAdvisor customer said the work was good but the wait to get it done was long. A 2015 HomeAdvisor reviewer told others to hire someone else and complained about having to pay to get the warranty honored.
Our driveway was in rough shape - it was essentially a thin layer of asphalt poured over a gravel drive. Sam and Co were outstanding. The finished product exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!
Very grateful they came when they said they would, finished a new driveway installation in less than one day, and it looks wonderful! It was hard to wait the 3 days before we could drive on it! We asked for an adjustment to the original plan, and Sam was very accommodating and voila! He did it with a smile! Very efficient crew working together!
We just had our driveway paved by Patterson & Sons Paving! Could not have been a better experience! Fast, efficient, clean and neat, an excellent result. We highly recommend them.
Great people and very professional.
This company has done many many jobs in the area and every one looks excellent, so of course I called them. I needed an ugly old paved small 2-car parking pad removed and re-done. They were amazing. So great to work with, excellent oversight, excellent communication in response to suggestions and minor adjustments (neither of which, from this client, were probably necessary!). They communicated very well about when to expect them and they came when they said they would. Their broad range of professional equipment and five crew was impressive and timed and choreographed perfectly. Poetry in action, if one could consider paving reaching the level of poetry. Everyone knew just what to do when. The horrible old paving was cleared and hauled away, gravel was hauled in and spread, the big fancy asphalt spreaders did their magic, soil brought in, edges refined. When done they waved a friendly goodbye as I checked my watch: the entire job had been done, start to finish, in only one hour and 25 minutes! My mind was blown. It’s so great to experience this level of competence, especially when DIY’er like us – often fussy – really cannot possibly DIY paving a driveway. Don’t hesitate to call Sam Patterson and Sons for your job.
