Nortown Paving & Construction Inc

My experience dealing with Marc and his associates was a pleasure from booking an appointment for an estimate to the execution of the driveway replacement. Truly an exceptional group of people. Adding a soldier course during the driveway replacement made the finished product look outstanding. A 10 in my book.

My husband and I were expecting a baby early summer of this year, and knew I would be spending much of my maternity leave enjoying our backyard. We were eager to have comfortable outdoor living space available prior to our baby's arrival (more specifically, prior to our June 1st baby shower). We had reached out to Nortown Paving mid-March, met with Mark, and confirmed the project mid-April (after a last, two some vacation) without looking for additional quotes. We were impressed with the company's history, Mark's straight forwardness, and ability to work with us on short timelines and make our desired mid-May deadline. Needless to say, we are more than happy with the results, and look forward to working with Norton for our driveway and front porch renovations next spring.

Last year I had a client who required repaving of a driveway c/w an interlocking sidewalk and retaining wall. Sam Volante came out and gave a reasonable quote that the client accepted, along with a timeline. His crew arrived on schedule and the work was completed much to my clients' satisfaction.
Later in the year, I called Nortown to come and give me an estimate on a project at my own home. I met this time with Marc Volante who not only provided an estimate, but also made some very good material suggestions. We could not proceed with our walkway last fall, and I called Marc recently to schedule it for this summer. He remembered our meeting and came right out to make sure everything was the same as we had discussed.
We are now looking at the new walkway, and are very pleased with his suggestions that helped make a terrific looking entrance to our home. Our thanks to Marc and his crew.

Having a driveway and walkway done is not an every day event. You can’t just call someone who you have always had to do a quick repair on something. This is a huge, one-time investment so you have to be careful to choose your contractor wisely.

I chose Nortown Paving and I am glad I did. After learning of the company, the first thing I did was to check the Better Business Bureau (0 complaints – a good sign) and HomeStars (great reports – and no bad ones!). I also contacted a former client.

I then called for a quote. Marc came, answered all my questions and produced a reasonable and competitive price. After checking out other contractors in the same way, I kept coming back to Marc and signed the contract. I am glad I did.

There are several reasons why I would recommend going with Nortown Paving:
- there was no pressure from Marc. He presents the information but
leaves the decision to the client,
- Marc is totally involved in the family business. In fact, he worked on
site for both the driveway and the stone walkway,
- Marc sticks to his word on timing,
- the crew was efficient, friendly and respectful of my property,
- Marc followed up on a minor problem and made sure it was
corrected.

Marc repeatedly said, “I will take care of you” and he did!

I would definitely recommend Nortown paving. We were very happy with their work and the new walk way and driveway look superb. Mark Volante and his team were friendly and courteous and worked quickly and efficiently to ensure minimal inconvenience. Thank you for a job well done.

Nortown did a terrific job of removing and replacing our front sidewalk and backyard patio. The job looks great. Marc was a real professional in managing the works. The crew turned up when scheduled and left the site in excellent shape. Some accidental damage was promptly repaired to better than original condition ! Highly recommended.

Very professional and fast service. Patio was completed in a day plus driveway prepared for paving. Always available to answer questions and very friendly service. Very satisfied with work done and would recommend the company to others.

Our driveway has sunk so it needed to be replaced and our backyard requires landscaping to cover the area where there are lots of weeds. I was looking for a company that can do both projects.
I found Nortown from browsing on the internet. I called up their company for an estimate and within the day, Rocco returned my call. In a couple of days he was already at my house doing the measurements and giving me suggestions for the project I had in mind.
I found out that this company is family owned for many years and they are successful because they care about their business and they provide excellent and quality service.
I have to say that I am 110% satisfied with the work they did. It was finished at the time frame that they promised. The result was even better than I expected. I'm very pleased and I would highly recommend them. I'm so happy I made the right choice because these projects cost a lot of money. I certainly got my money's worth :)

Our walkway was a mess of cracked slabbed concrete and very much worse for wear before we contacted Nortown to replace it with beautiful interlocking grey and slate grey stone. looks very neat and is certainly no longer the eyesore of the neighbourhood, thanks! Especially appreciate how they returned to fix a drainage problem at our request. Great team, would contact again for any other paving needs.

Having a home that is over 40 years old, it was time for the final stage of the outside work. My husband and I have always maintained the grounds around the house, but after all these years, the property needed to be re-graded and frankly, needed to be completely renovated. In addition, the driveway was about 5 years past its lifetime and to be honest, it was rather embarrassing. We were hesitant, not knowing which contractors to call for estimates and when it came time to choose one, we wondered if we would be happy with the work and the cost involved. We did some research into various contractors and called three to provide us with ideas and estimates. It was not difficult to see that Mark Volante of Nortown Paving offered a more personal approach with some fantastic ideas and competitive pricing. Prior to the work being started and due to the deterioration of the natural gas lines and sewer issues in our area, we had many unexpected obstacles to overcome before Nortown could begin their work. Mark worked with us through all these issues and even after Nortown began their work, the gas company needed to replace the underground lines throughout our entire neighbourhood, informing us only two weeks prior to their start date. Nortown worked patiently with us, ensuring all the “neighbourhood” work was finished prior to completing our project. We had the driveway paved, outlined by interlocking stone down both sides. The stone work extended up to the front door, right to the property line and stretching to the back of the house. The end result was amazing – the workmanship superior and the “WOW” factor is far more that we hoped for. Mark informed us from Day 1 that we would be very impressed with Nortown Paving but we are far more than impressed. The cost of the project was about mid-range of the estimates we received, leading us to feel that we got far more than our money’s worth. We referred Nortown to a neighbour, who is equally impressed with the work done by Nortown on their property and have recently referred a family member. THANK YOU MARK VOLANTE AND NORTOWN PAVING –your work is art! Ian & Carol Spencer.
