Absolute rip-off. I trusted this company and he quoted me $9500 but discounted me to $8700 to widen my driveway with asphalt. He did not put the square footage into the contract. He said that the job would be done in a few weeks but showed up within 3 days to do the job. I guess he did not want to allow me any time to get other quotes. It turns out that the normal rate for this work is about $10 per square foot (per other quotes). I discovered that he put down about 550 square feet of asphalt so the job should have costed about $5500 to $6000. So he was $2700 higher than anyone else. He also charged $1000 to seal the driveway. I have since had quotes for that in the range of $600. If you look at other reviews, Mr. Rafferty did the same or tried to do the same to other people. I know that the rule is "let the buyer beware" but companies such as Rafferty Paving SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED to be on sites such as Home Advisor. I tried to appeal to Mr. Rafferty to get some of my money back but he ignores my emails.

Hello all; this is my review for Rafferty Paving Company. Sam Rafferty, sons, & crew just paved my huge driveway and parking pad where they did a superb job from start to finish. I you like working with polite, professional, courteous and above all--trustworthy folks...then you will really appreciate your experience with the Rafferty Paving Company--Sam, sons, & their illustrious and courteous crew! Starting with my first phone call, Sam was prompt, professional, courteous, at every turn, and also gave me a fair price to pave my driveway where he did a great job which I am exceedingly happy with. But not 'just' with the fine quality of his work, but also with one of the most pleasant overall experiences in working with a business.
