Well, I am the kind of person that hates to do things like this however in this situation it is absolutely necessary. I had total trust in Shannon, as did one of his high school friends, my friend. Shannon was to come and pave their driveway in a few different places to repair it before winter. He was paid upfront in cash and was never heard from again. He avoided text and phone calls, even when told nobody is upset just give us a refund and we'll call it a day. So he kept saying that he would be there, and never came. Not only did he not show up there, he went to Florida. Which seems to be a habit we learned that he had, after having to call some other paving companies to get the job done that he had already been paid for in full. He said his equipment was broken down and he would fix it and come back. According to those same phone calls he has no equipment, and has taken money from quite a few other individuals and went, wait for it ... to Florida with their money as well. This was done to a dear friend of mine who was actually very good friends with Shannon since high school. I myself have known him since we were eight or nine years old. Not only am I disgusted by this, it breaks my heart to see someone that could be successful do such terrible things to people by giving his word and stealing their money. He has no idea how much stress and Financial burden he has put on a family, that I care very deeply for, by his selfish actions. Bad business is one thing, Karma is also. BUYER BEWARE!! read more

I don't enjoy writing bad reviews but I have no choice. I had received a few quotes and these guys came in higher than the others. Which was fine because he was offering to do more than the others, $250 to seal my driveway. The other quotes were around $190. Shannon is the man I was dealing with. We agreed he would pressure wash the driveway, use a special solvent to get up oil stains and then put 2 coats of sealant down. Two counts only if it was needed. They showed up and my wife calls me and told me that the driveway hadn't even been swept and definitely hadn't been pressure washed and nothing was done to get up oil spots. The installer told my wife the sealer they were using had the solvent built in to get up the oil. (Yea, sure it does) To make long story short, I respectfully told Shannon over the phone that he needed to come get his stuff and leave. I no longer wanted them at my house. Not because they are bad people because I'm sure they're not but only because the job wasn't done as promised. They had only sealed a couple feet out from the garage. But sealant had gotten on my garage floor and trickled on the grass. A portion of the driveway had also been "burnt" off. While talking to Shannon he assured me they knew what they were doing and he asked me what I did for a living (after questioning his practices) I thought it was rude to say that. His last thing to me was asking me would I still be interested if he pressure washed, cleaned up the oil and sealed. I told him absolutely not. I'm sure these are good folks, they've been in business for quite some time but this time around, they missed the mark. read more

Some of my neighbors had used him to reseal driveways and I hired him for that. It was a barely OK job, and great cracks were left. He promised (for a price) to fix them, and then it was more sealed, but looks awful,like some gray crap squirted on top of the black. Looks like a map of rivers and its tributaries all over the flat space of the driveway. But usable. Other matter: I had lost my regular handyman of 15 years, so let him do some simple yard work. He charged me more than I wanted, ($40 an hour for two of them) but I wanted it to be done before the cold weather. He set up a "work day" two different days; never showed, never called either day. Lame excuses. Finally he showed up with a "worker" who did 90% of the work while he stood around, hands on his hips, (or sat in his car) just watching. He said he needed cash from me for the hardware supplies (fence boards, nails, etc.). 2 days in a row I gave him $50 cash to go to Lowe's. He NEVER produced the receipts, and claimed he owed me .."maybe $7 change" one day, and I could "deduct it from my final total owed him"; the next day he took my $50 cash for supplies for the day; again claimed to have lost my receipt ("don't know where it is"), and then had the nerve to tell me again that my change was also only about $7,and he had "put it toward gas". I came unglued, reminded him that I had given him some gas money the day before (which should be his own cost of doing business anyway), AND his use of any of MY money without permission was a misappropriation of funds, or stealing. I also provided a full lunch for both workers on my time. He just shrugged it off, and so I told him to finish this day then get off my property and never come back. I deducted $14 from my final payment to him of hundreds of dollars, but I found out later that this "owner" had taken that $14 out of the pay of the poor helper (out of that poor guy's $10/hr wage), saying I had cheated HIM out of that money. He himself was the cheater; and took his full $30/hour share out of my $40//hour for both as if he had earned it. My view: lazy, imcompetent, liar, cheat, bully. A warning. AND what the heck is his "secretary" giving a rave review when it is against the rules, and for sure a conflict of interest. I have shared my story with my neighbors, as we do keep each other informed about good and bad people looking to take our money. Buyer Beware. He is trying to start a new business, but he better learn some people skills and brush up on learning some ethical conduct, as well as a few manners. read more
