S & S Blacktop

My fiancé posted the other 1-​star review on these guys… now it’s my turn as more has transpired… This company is completely disreputable. Recall, Rossi D. wrote, we couldn’t get Nick or his team to return our calls, now we have approx 10 voice mails saved from him. now that he wants to collect payment for his extremely poor work… work that wasn’t done to the specs or standards that we initially discussed. Nick got angry and attempted a Stalk & Block me with his truck, trying to prevent me from driving down my road and initiating a confrontation. Then followed me to the property where the confrontation further ensued. He lied on the phone saying he has a signed contract… which he doesn’t unless he forged something himself… if so that’s fraud. He lied about the amount of materials he used on the property. Today… I parked my truck on one of the newly asphalted areas and it broke and sunk down as it appears there wasn’t four inches of baserock and 4 inches of asphalt for stabilization as discussed on our previous job with Nick… the new section was supposed to be done so rain would run downhill away from the garage/​shed, instead it will pool next to the foundation and cause dry rot eventually. Now we have to get estimates from two other companies to see what it will cost to repair all the damage on Nick’s tab. We will also have the driveway drilled in several places to make sure there are 4 inches of asphalt from the first job as most likely it has to be removed anyway. Nick… owner of S & S Asphalt in Morgan Hill, I hope you are licensed, bonded, and carry workman’s comp in Santa Cruz County.

Last year, these guys did an AMAZING job for us and we would have given 5-​plus stars and recommended them to everyone. NOT ANYMORE. They were back in the area and stopped by… we agreed to do some more work to enhance what they’d already done. WHAT A MESS! NOT of the caliber or quality they did last summer. They resealed the areas that they already sealed for us twice (their job from last summer) with a supercheap sealant that is already PEALING after one day… some cheap crap out of a can… Looks like a two-​year old did it. Before they started we pressured washed the driveway… now they sealed over the dirt they made and it’s already pealing like crazy after 1 day, and you can just easily scrape it off too. PLUS, they did not seal the newly asphalted areas at all so there are lines of demarcation all over the driveway and our property looks like crap. So they ruined their own beautiful work they did last summer and along with it they ruined their business reputation as well. I can’t believe this is even the same company. What a disappointment. No, we don’t trust their work anymore. We won’t have them back on our property again. Can you say lawsuit? I’m going to post to our local community website and have our neighbors come and check out their sh*tty work. I doubt they’ll work up here again. P. S., Couldn’t get a return phone call from them after two phone calls before they «finished the job» to clarify the scope of the project and what we wanted… BUT NOW that they know we’re suing… they called back twice. Save it for court.
