I called and told them what I was looking for and then someone sent me several pictures to choose from. A guy came out for the estimate and was very polite. To do my due diligence, I got several quotes. Theirs was the most comprehensive and a fair price. The only negative was that we couldn't secure a specific date; however, I didn't care. I was in no rush. I think if you put a timeline on it they would accommodate it. My project was a small driveway and fence for our house, not a commercial project. I know they do both. They came out and the men who did the job were kind and respectful. We did have a problem during our experience, but were very pleased with how it was handled. We felt like this company took a great deal of pride with their work and how they treated their employees. It is a family business and a business run by a veteran. At the end of the day and when my project was completed I was really glad I went with premier paving and premier fencing.

Premier Paving of Northern Illinois never completed their job on my asphalt driveway. Additionally…read morethey lied to me about when and what they were willing to do about the unfinished project. First I had about 20 emails with Lily , the project manager and conveniently one of the owner's wife who absolutely blew me off on 2 Saturdays when she told me they would come. Then Efren, the other owner, came by my house twice , once just to look and he then came back while it was raining so he could see where the water wasn't draining properly. I was encouraged that they would stand behind their work. However now Efren lied to me because no one ever came even though I waited all day. Then Efren blocked my number so I couldn't talk to him anymore. They justified the whole thing by saying that I was being unreasonable. I ended up paying a different company 270$ to seal coat my driveway. There are bird baths all over my new driveway and they never repaired the part where there machine did some minor damage.

After the work was completed, we found sections of the drainage piping left exposed above ground rather than properly buried as they were prior to the project, raising concerns about freezing and potential damage in winter. We contacted the company multiple times and provided photos.

There is a disagreement regarding responsibility for final grading and restoration. Based on this experience, I would not recommend them to others.

As a firefighter/paramedic who prides himself in customer service, I regret to inform you North…read moreStar Stone does not! These old reviews certainly didn't help me, so hopefully my newer and accurate review can help you, and save you from wasting your time like me! I emailed one of their employee's named Sherry DeMatteis in an attempt to schedule a meeting to see their showroom (required by North Star Stone per their website). We agreed upon a date and time to meet. When I showed up for the scheduled meeting, Sherry had the date incorrect and nearly turned us away after driving an hour to get there! The NEW owner overheard our conversation and even though he was leaving for the day, met with us quickly (Shaunak Ahuja). He was very brief, and was teaching Sherry during our meeting as she was taking notes and asking questions to the newer owner. They kept referencing how the previous owner had left the business unexpectedly. The NEW owner ghosted us by never responding for months. I tried to place an order, but simply can't, and now with all this time that has lapsed with lack of response, I no longer wanted to. Our original meeting was held before school started for my children in August! Over four months with NO PROGRESS. Very frustrating and now we have to start over. I have reached out to Sherry twice via cellular phone, sent emails to Sherry DeMatteis at member+jp7144938@jobprogress.com, Alan@hxhome.solutions, and info@northstarstone.biz (all gathered from their website), but no response has been met in months. UPDATE 11-14-2022: When I originally wrote this review of North Star Stone, the newer owner, Shaunak Ahuja, contacted me via email, text, and by cellular phone. He promised to "make things right," and gave me his cell phone number. After contacting me a few times and me finally placing an order through Shaunak Ahuja, I came to find out his phone was full at 25G, and no order was actually placed or sent out. Shaunak Ahuja stated again he would send out the order that day. It's been almost a month since he resent the order. He has told me continually that he would send a contract, but no contract has been sent. I was hoping to update my review with a better and more positive response from the Owner and company, but unfortunately the facts are what they are. If this is how they handle customer service before and after placing an order, what happens when/if something goes wrong after the orders placed? Or installation? I would certainly rather not find out. I hope this review helps you. Best of luck of your home improvement projects!
