We were impressed with the service and level of communication with Kaplan from the initial estimate to the final step of paving. This was a complete tear-out and replacement of a large driveway. We appreciated that Kaplan handled the applications for two permits.

Arturo and his crew did an amazing job on my driveway. In addition to it being beautiful and everything that I was hoping for, the crew had to work around dog walkers and baby strollers since people were insisting on walking on the sidewalk where they were working. They were patient, polite and professional.
