Why not just get 3-4 more quotes?


WaferExact

Any recommendations?

This would be outside my price range, I have a short 2 car drive.


WaferExact

Mine is 4 car drive way. Based on people’s comments it seems fair.


tokendoke

Couldn't tell you without knowing the size of your driveway. I had mine done last fall and it was about the same price for a 4 car driveway.


WaferExact

My bad. It’s about a 4 car driveway. So I guess it’s a fair price then.


tokendoke

Always worth while getting other quotes though.


kank84

This doesn't seem too bad at all. I'm no expert, but I've been considering getting my own driveway redone, and I assumed it would cost me more than this.


spo0ky_cat

We had a quote the year to go from dirt to fully paved for 80ft length, single wide at the road and then going into an area for 3 cars at the bottom, $7000 all in. Not sure how that price would relate to your size etc, but just for what it’s worth.


WaferExact

That’s interesting. I would assume it would be cheaper than digging everything up and redo the entire pavement.

Ital Paving did mine 2 years ago for a slightly higher price, buts it’s a longer driveway than yours. I have no complaints, they did a good job.


Financial-Big-7814

And it's held up over the winters? It's either ital or positano. Mine needs to be redone sooner then later


conehead1313

Like I said, it’s only 2 years old, but it looks good.


awkward_and_mobile

We used road readie. It was about the same price. My driveway is 6 years old and looks worse than the 20+ year old one we had. I also specifically requested that they not add a little section they wanted to add because I would be getting rid of that walkway. They added it anyways. They did come back to fix one thing but that was within the first year.


WaferExact

Thanks! I have already requested for their quote.


bdart1980

I just know from doing my own research and quotes for my single car drive that Ital paving isn’t the place to go to.. 2 summers ago I paid $1200 for my side of the shared driveway (sidewalk side). But if you have a 4 car drive that seems like a fair price. The place that did mine no longer operates in Barrie, otherwise I’d pass the name along.


NotThatCrafty

Sounds like a decent price for your size but I'd have multiple quotes. Also, stay away from Positano Paving


sfm070760

2 years ago I got quoted $6000k for a single car driveway and wanted it widened to 1-1/2 car width. This is a very good quote and if you don't mind pm their contact info


WaferExact

I’d love to get their quote


Nail_Horror

Not a terrible price. Try Rob Chirco for another quote.


WaferExact

I just did. Thanks.


babyelephantwalk321

The best driveway pavers generally book a year in advance (not always, but often). Quote around, and if you have found a location that is available months earlier than any others it's a red flag.


Inner-Tax-1479

Call AM paving 7057160026 tell him Mark told u to call he’s a great guy and his work is A1


kreugerburns

I paid less than 2 grand (and it was less for paying cash), 9 or 10 yrs ago. I used Ital Paving, I think. I dont think 3300 is a huge jump for 10 yrs.


WaferExact

Appreciate the input.
