JD Construction

When we built our house, our contractor did a horrible job paving the driveway. We contacted JD after seeing our driveway was literally collapsing! They can put, gave us a great quote, solid advisement, and guided us toward the best option for our situation. The project moved amply quick (with consideration for proper settlement) and our new driveway was done to exceeding expectations. This thing is so solid you can land an aircraft on it. I highly recommend this group of individuals for their quality of work and professional manner!

I was satisfied with the quality of the work they did, but I was disgusted and disturbed by the racism I saw on display. Black and brown men did all the manual labor with pick axes and shovels while the three Irish brothers sat on top of the heavy equipment on their phones and waited to drive over and flatten the pavement once it was all spread out by their employees. The owners were responsive to me, but I didn't like how they spoke to and intersected with their employees who did all the work for their company.

Poor quality work and terrible costumer service. They paved our driveway. Edges are very wobbly, nothing close to straight. Placed five calls requesting review and options to make it right. no response other than gruff brush off. HIRE AT YOUR OWN RISK! We recommend finding a more reputable, responsive and ethical company.

We had a patio installed and drainage added to our backyard. They did beautiful work which they completed on schedule and at the quoted price. They were wonderful to work with and we love our new patio.

I can't review their work because they never showed up to give me an estimate. We made an appointment and I rushed home to meet them. No call. No show. Not a good sign for their reliability!

JD Construction redid my driveway -- expanded it, too, to fit an extra car -- and walkway in August, and I was very happy with the results. My driveway had huge cracks in it (literally, grass growing through), and the walkway to the front door was also asphalt and not very attractive. JD Construction's quote was in the midrange of all of the quotes I got, and they worked with me on the price and payment schedule to make it work.

It took a while to get everything going, because of their schedule with other houses, but I'm incredibly happy with the final product. The driveway is smooth and clean, they changed its shape after I requested it during the process, and the pavers are beautiful. Would absolutely recommend folks to call JD if they're looking for similar products.

The two stars was earned because my driveway was torn up and repaved by them and two winters later it still looks great not a single crack or puddling issue ever. So for paving alone, I would recommend. They were very friendly and timely, thats not where my problem lies.

My issue is with the stacked stone retaining wall that goes on either side of my driveway that we asked to replace after the fact. Key word was ""replace"". Well, lesson learned for going forward with any contracted home repair, get it in detailed writing! We basically had a verbal agreement on the wall portion of work. What I got was the same existing loose stones all restacked (same postion as before) and slapped a sloppy layer of light grey cement on top to hold together. My expectation which aligned with the price I paid (based on estimates I've received), was for new stone or block type pavers to be used/replace. I simply assumed, and when I came home and saw the work being finished and same stone still there...I realized my mistake and was too embarrassed to say anything but knew I was ripped off. The price I paid for this ""restacking"" of my sidewalls is an absolute ripoff and offsets any deal I thought I got on the paving price. And yes the cement layer on top is crumbled and the rocks are already loose again. Hence my review as I am going to have to pay another business to replace this job.

Their worker also cracked one of the bluestone stairs leading up the walkway immediately off driveway, when he tore down the stones to restack on that side of driveway and I had to have that replaced by the contractor who re-did my stairs (because I would never rehire JD).

And yes, ditto to what the other reviewers say about only accepting cash or checks not made out to their business. So yes, you will miss out on those credit card points with them.

Called for a quote for driveway repair. Guy was short abrupt and kind of rude. Happy I didn't give them my business.

We decided to get our old asphalt driveway and sidewalk (concrete) walkway removed and replaced. After talking and getting a quote from one other company, we decided to go with JD Construction as they were doing another job right down the street. We walked down to ask them to come by and they did right away. The brother that own the company are extremely nice, knowledgable and professional. We told them what we were looking for, then made recommendations and drew up a contract. They would begin within 3 weeks. A week later they were back and within a day our entire driveway and walk were removed and everything was tamped down and prepped. After sitting for awhile we decided on pavers for the walk (they bring you samples to choose from) and a design. The walkway went in on two days and it was VERY nicely done. It looks perfect. They also concrete the sides to that everything is right and not as likely to shift. A few days later they came back and the driveway went in in a couple hours. The guys were great. The workers were courteous and cleaned up really well at the end of each day. We were happy with the speed at which the project was completed, the fact that we're were involved from beginning to end (they keep you totally in the loop and let you know why thy are doing certain things or using certain materials), and the price seemed pretty fair, especially for the area.

I would highly recommend them for any similar projects.

My wife and I have an ""old"" house in West Hartford, CT with an equally ""old"" asphalt driveway. We had to do some sort of repair to it. We called some asphalt sealing companies and an asphalt paving company to come by and look at our driveway. They all had suggestions as to how we could repair our driveway to get some more years out of it.

Then we got a flyer in the local paper for JD Construction and we thought we would get another opinion as to how to deal with our asphalt driveway. We called the number on the flyer and the next day we met with James the owner of the company and he was knowledgeable and friendly.

He talked to us about how his company could resurface our asphalt driveway or he could make our house look a ton better with brick pavers. I was curious and the more we talked, I was convinced that brick pavers would be the way to go!

Signed the contract on Monday. Tuesday his crew showed up with lots of the proper equipment to rip out my old driveway and lay the correct base material for the paving bricks. He brought by samples of brick colors for us to choose and we could decide on the pattern that we wanted. Wednesday morning he came by to ask us what we would like... and by Wednesday at 5:00pm we had our new driveway!

I must say that the professionalism, quickness and attention to detail was amazing. I would highly recommend this company to anybody that asks.
