Canada Paving recently completed our double wide driveway and did a fantastic job, the crews were professional to the letter. The backhoe operator was a surgeon when he stripped the old asphalt and didn't so much as disturb one interlock brick. The paving crew, and there was a crowd of them, handled a 2 lift install in the rain with skill under the watchful eye of Frank who clearly runs a tight ship! Job well done! every aspect of the project was handled professionally. thanks Enea!

While I fully understand contractors have been awash with business due to Covid, this company had booked us for July after an estimate and agreed price; then postponed our booking to early September. I called back in mid-September and periodically thereafter to get the work completed before the cold weather. The receptionist occasionally answered my call however I was not contacted by the owner/manager to re-book. Have not heard from them at all and now they don't answer the phone. Very unprofessional and unresponsive so beware. I would not recommend doing business with them at all and will contact

My long driveway needed to be graded properly before paving to ensure water would route the right way. The paving team was excellent and under the Foreman Ken's guidance took the necessary time to ensure the job was done right. They work diligently and strive for quality results. My driveway looks great and water runs off as expected.

Excellent service!!! We just got a major repair on our parking lot by Canada Paving and Construction and so far it looks great. The crew showed up on time and performed diligently. I sought several other paving services and Canada Paving and Construction was the most reliable with the quickest responses, knowledgeable feedback, and professional recommendations.
Canada Paving and Constructions quote was reasonable and they explain everything that they will be doing. They clearly understood how we needed the lot repaired executed that plan perfectly. I highly recommend!
