SMART CORP - PAVING & EXCAVATION

When Smart Corp pulled up an old parking lot in August 2026, they found soft clay under the asphalt. The customer wrote that instead of covering it over, the crew dug the unsuitable material out first. That is the sort of thing people notice about Roberto Perez's outfit — the part of the job that ends up buried gets done properly. Smart Corp works out of Waltham on paving and excavation, and in practice that stretches well past driveways: patios and paver walkways, stone stairs and landings, repointing, hauling and site clearing, trenching and grading, and through the winter, plowing and shovelling. Driveways are the job that comes up most. A customer in July 2026 said Roberto kept the project on schedule and the finish looked clean; another in June 2026 had a driveway and walkways paved, and mentioned competitive pricing and fast answers to questions. In April 2025, a customer had a driveway redone with a parking spot added, quickly and at a price they thought reasonable. And in July 2024 Roberto regraded and repaired a driveway and sidewalk, then came back to fix a discoloration afterwards — the customer wrote that he kept his word. Stonework is the other half. In November 2025, a household had a walkway rebuilt in stone, a driveway replaced, a damaged set of stone stairs redone and a new stone landing built. A July 2025 customer with a steeply sloped yard had worried a back patio would be too difficult, and wrote that the crew made it work anyway. An August 2026 customer had repointing done and said it was handled carefully. Snow is where the long-standing customers turn up. A landlord writing in March 2025 had used Roberto for snow removal on properties in Watertown and Newton for several years, and noted that tenants could always get out to work. Others describe driveways and walkways kept clear at rates and with communication they were happy with; one has the team plow and shovel for their mother. Roberto is named personally in review after review, usually for the same reason. A March 2025 customer with a tight space to work in wrote that he went away, came back with a plan to review, and delivered what he had promised. The Google rating is 5 stars across 37 ratings, and the 35 written reviews run from August 2023 to September 2026, eight of them in the past six months. For a driveway, a paver patio, stonework, a drainage or trenching job, or a winter contract around Waltham, Watertown and Newton, this is a crew whose customers keep calling back across seasons.
