( see pic ) Team that did work was friendly when we visited & kept the work areas clean Payments were easy, and we never pressured by Christian. We are doing a complete remodel of a home in Waynesville, NC and we have numerous other contractors at the house working regularly - I know first hand of at least 3 who have asked who we used for the deck and commented on its build in a positive manner. Everyone has different experiences based on upfront expectations and the way they work with folks - All I can say is that 2022 has started off great for us and our remodel - in large part, by a great start due to Christian and his team .

I had a hard time finding someone to take on the job considering all that was going on in the area, and my normal guy didn't have a crew for a job of this scale. I was lucky someone referred Christian to me. He was very friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled. He did an A+ job that was done faster than expected and came in completely on budget. I highly recommend his services.

This business is owned by a young man with a family history in this industry. The entire crew was very professional and they had plenty of equipment. I had several concerns and they completed the installation while meeting all of my expectations. They provided all the services I expected. I expect this driveway to be here in great condition for 40 or more years. I plan on getting it seal coated next year and expect it will remain great.

Approximately 1 year ago I contracted R&L Paving to re-pave a private driveway for my rental home…read morein East Asheville. Since I do not live locally, I had several phone conversations with the owner named Pamela, in which I reiterated that the entire driveway was to be repaved; which included the flat parking area as well as the narrow intersection perpendicular to the edge of the street where the private driveway begins. In addition, I asked her to meet at the home with my Property Manager to look at the slope and drainage as well as address the existing site conditions. One day I receive a call from Pamela that they had a cancellation and asked if they could do the job the next day. For this, she sent me a basic contract stating the square yards of Asphalt as well as the thickness of the new asphalt lay-over. For this, they wanted $5,800 for one day's work. I signed it presuming that Pamela and her crew would not only re-pave the entire driveway, but also engineer the new asphalt so that it drained properly away from the house. This was verbally discussed, but was not included in the Contract. After completion, I asked my Property Managers to go to the Site to ensure that they Completed the work in a satisfactory manner prior to releasing payment. I received a photograph showing that R&L Paving only did approximately 70% of the driveway (the flat part), but did not do the sloped narrow portion of the driveway that intersected the street. I called Pamela to ask her why they did not do what was asked, and she started getting aggressive with me on the phone saying that they did what was on the Contract. Further more, she stated that the total amount of $5,800 was due in full now that the job was complete. She then went on to threaten me that if I did not submit payment immediately she would put a tractor in front of my driveway preventing anyone from going in or out until she got paid in full. Since my new Tenant was moving in the next several days, I immediately paid her company in full to avoid immediate complications. Months later after my Tenant moved in, they contacted my Property Management Company notifying them that when it rains there are large puddles that form in the flat area where they park their vehicles. During my visit to Asheville, I went to the Property to look at the issues with the puddling and have photos that show the extent of the problem. By then it had been less than a year, and the area where the potholes once were...now the asphalt was also showing evidence of starting to break up. It was immediately thereafter, that I wrote R&L Paving a Certified Letters notifying Pamela of the above issues with the driveway. Since I never received a reply in the time manner set forth, I ended up filing a formal complaint with the local BBB. You can go to https://www.bbb.org/asheville/ to read the entire complaint. Her website also falsely advertised that they were an Accredited business by the BBB (Not True!). Now I not only have a liability issue, but also have to hire and pay another company to address the puddling issues created by the new asphalt driveway. In sum, I sincerely believe that Pamela Dockery, the Owner of R&L Paving, does not care one bit either about customer satisfaction nor about taking the necessary steps to ensure that the asphalt paving work is done correctly. Instead, she is solely concerned about getting in and out of a job as quickly as possible and getting paid right away..and NOTHING MORE. Pamela's demeanor in making threats, denying conversations, and then pointing the finger back at me for not telling her company how to do the paving job right...ARE ALL REASONS TO to warn and protect other consumers from BAD BUSINESS PRACTICES by this company.

We hired Salvatore and was extremely happy with his first visit for the tree removal and yard clean…read moreup. He gave us a price and pointed out extra things as well as I was adamant on taking out a large dead branch above our shed and behind our home on the property line was all to be cleaned up after we went back to Florida. It took him a while to get back and finish and then he gave us a huge bill and said he was done. We reluctantly paid it but there was a lot to remove. We were in Florida and had friends come by. They sent me pics which I forwarded to Salvadore and he said he would take care of us when we got back to NC. All the brush was pushed to the property line and the trees and root balls behind our kitchen were left there in such a mess!!!! The branch above the shed is dangerous and there were other trees he said were coming down and that is why the cost went up and they are still there!!!! Ugh!!!! We have been calling him for 2 weeks to no answer back. Very disappointed in how he took our money and didn't do the whole job and won't return our call. We also had a lot of landscaping planned for the area and I was excited about working with them but obviously he got paid and was done in his eyes. Very upsetting!!!! Make sure he does the work before you pay him. We have never been so blindsided by someone we really trusted to do us a good job and over paid his original quote to find out he didn't do the items that were really important and just left us high and dry!!!! So sad and I hope you call us Salvadore. This is a bad business move and not the way to treat good customers!

He and his crew worked less than 6 hours the first day and said he was done. When we asked what about the rest of the removal, he wanted to roll it into woods and asked for more money. Then he promised to come back and complete the job, but was a no show for a week! Then he came back 7 days later without telling us ahead of time even though we asked him to, and ran heavy equipment over the septic system tearing up the yard. He was there about 2 hours. We had to haul off many trailer loads of trees and debris. We offered to pay him $7000 because of all the work we had to do, and now he's threatening to sue us!!!! He will not admit his failures. He just wants the money for the work we had to finish. Altogether he worked about 8 hours on a job that should have taken him 2-3 full workdays. There was also a 15% off all services discount listed on his website that Salvador never offered us.

If a service is excellent . . . I like to take the time to write a review. Life is busy for us all…read moreand so many little things grab at our time and attention. And IF a provided service and / or product takes things a Definitive Notch above Excellent . . . Well then it is my great pleasure to brag on these guys. Talk about an exceeding of expectations. These guys Rock. Plain and Simple. Over the years I have dealt with varied Concrete Contractors in contracting several houses. Some better than others as with all things. Got a price from a previously used decent provider. He's busy so the price just stupid ridiculous. Another guy previously used - "Let me call you back . . . " Not to be heard from again. Busy. I get it. "Can't do it all and it looks like things will stay busy" - Maybe A random Google search brought me across Above All Concrete. After an online inquiry, it was shortly thereafter that Denis came out and assessed the challenging large slab and footer shelf that I needed. There was a clear plan that was provided, a description of the entire process, start to finish. And a Very Fair Price. In light of the finished product, An Excellent Value, that I am certain of. My project had setback after setback dealing with Engineering hiccups among others. Several times after All Above having scheduled the Concrete Trucks, Labor, Pump, etc I would have to once again ask to push things back. 4 times this happened and I felt terrible about it. And there was ZERO hint of the Office Scheduler feeling put out. That is RARE. For me it is. Through the process of the initial quote, the price, the followup, the numerous questions that arose from the engineer, contractor, myself, . . . Numerous - Denis not once failed to answer my call or promptly respond. Rare indeed. Ruben the owner is Kind, Communicative, Humble, Accommodating, Family Man. And he has put together one Heck of a Team. And ultimately, the hard work, and the Intention, the Attitude, the Care, and yes the craftsmanship. Concrete can be halfway done like anything else. And like a lot of things, A lot can be overlooked if One doesn't know or isn't aware. Homeowners Especially . . . It's the little things that add up into a Damn Good Finished Product to stand back and be Really Really Pleased with a things such as this that can turn out a number of different ways. I am quite peculiar in things being done right. These boys do it Right. It is Neat. Professional. And simply get the Job Done. Branson Bullman Asheville, NC
