Great work. The owner can work miracles with a tractor. If you’re deciding between bids and it comes down to an immaterial cost difference, I’d choose this company. The the cost difference is material, but you can afford it, I’d also choose this company.

What a relief to find them. There are a handful of companies available and I had reached out to many of them... Pimentel was by far the most responsive and professional. They did great work and also were accommodating to a few changes once the work began. Pleasure to work with.

Joe and team did a great job of installing a new, long driveway on our one acre property! The "Gold Chip Seal" that they can do is great for that nice "gravel driveway" look - see picture. (The gold pebble chip seal is even so pretty, that afterwards, I even set up a portable Volleyball net for the kids to play right there - see second picture too.) Everything was great, from the very easy to read estimate & contract sheet they use, to the final day of installation. Great family run company. They worked really hard and got the job done on time. Wish all construction companies I hire could be this effective! Would definitely hire them again. Great job guys!

I would give these guys 10 stars if it was an option. They were incredible to deal with. From the first phone call to the finished product they were amazing. They were very reasonably priced and the work and attention to detail was beyond my expectations. Rarely am I impressed by contractors I usually feel they over promise and under deliver. Not these guys they showed up on time worked their butts off and the end result is better than I ever expected. I would not hesitate to use them again and will refer them to others every chance I get

We have had a lot of different contractors working on our home over the last several years and Pimentel was one of the few that far exceeded our expectations. We have a long and steep driveway that had not been paved for 20+ years. Joe bid the job quickly and walked through the details and followed up with a detailed quote. We did get other bids but there was never a question that we would pick Pimentel if the price was competitive.

Joe and his team spent three long and hard days working on the project. We were able to watch the efficiency of the team work together to create a masterpiece. Repair performed first followed by asphalt overlay. The edges are crisp and straight, the top even and smooth.

The team went the extra mile and graded out a parking area and a side access road. They evened out the sides and made sure the ditches were deep enough. They did the job as if it was the bosses house. I recommended my contractor friend to use them and he is currently scheduled to do his home.

We will not call another company the next time and will only use Pimentel (We suspect that the quality work will not need them for many more years). The only bad thing is that they did such a great job that we don't want to drive on it and get it dirty.

I hired Pimental for a second job (chip seal done in a stunning sonoma gold color rock) a few months after their first project for me (driveway paving and pickleball court install). I trusted him to do the new job based on his earlier great work. They didn't disappoint. Rock solid. I wish I had more contractors like them.

Excellent job overall. I found their contact information from a friend of a friend so it was a random encounter. The owner bid the project of paving my driveway which is a lengthy one, at what I felt was a reasonable price. He came out twice and I felt confident in his ability enough so that I didn't bother getting other bids. Normally I do. He and his crew came here and did a very fine job, at least from what I can tell so far. There were a couple of areas that needed special attention and they handled it all professionally and courteously. I also had him pave a pickleball court for me as a last minute thing and he did a stellar job on that as well. This guy has a ton of experience and seems to be a Craftsman. Very happy with the work.

If you are considering asphalt replacement or paving, I would highly recommend Pimentel Paving.

After reaching out to several well-known larger companies with limited or zero response, I found Pimentel through Yelp. I was happily surprised when the owner, Joe, responded right away. He set up an initial consultation/estimate and he showed up as promised. That's a rarity these days. That excellent level of communication continued through the entire process. From the initial consultation to replace the existing asphalt to recommendations/advice/options for edging, curbing and sealing, Pimentel's was a pleasure to work with.

I eventually did receive a couple of additional quotes from others (one without actually coming out to look!) but they were not as detailed and Joe still beat those prices.

This was a fairly large residential driveway project with a turnaround area and something we had never done before. Joe was VERY patient to answer all my questions, give me options and explain the process to me in an easy to understand way.

Joe, along with is team worked extremely hard and we felt they treated the project as if it was their own residence. They arrived on time, finished without delay and left the work area perfectly cleaned up.

It was a late season install just prior to winter rains. Joe re-graded some of the area and we now have excellent drainage. We are planning to have them return to seal soon.

To sum it up, we would use Pimentel Paving again in a heartbeat. They are honest, fair in price and go above and beyond on the installation. We really appreciated the planning, coordination and work ethic of this team.

Paved our private road Pimentel is great to work with. We had to get 24 owners to sign up and it took us 2 years to get our side in order. Pimentel stuck with us and helped as much as they could. When we were finally ready to pave Pimentel came in and did a great job. They are honest, reasonably priced, knowledgable, and professional. I strongly recommend them and would use them again. BTW: when looking for a contractor spend some time on the contractors license website. Pimentel has had the same license for decades with no complaints. Other contractors would promise anything, but when we looked at other contractor's licenses we found many aliases and many complaints. Save yourself the headaches and stick with Pimentel.

Pimentel did an excellent job paving my very steep driveway. I originally chose Pimentel because of their excellent reputation and very reasonable pricing. (with estimates ranging from $9,800 - $33,000) Given the quality of their work and the pleasure they were to work with, I wouldn't consider using anybody else if I ever needed another driveway repaved. Thank you!

Pimentel Paving worked at our property on a super warm day. What a crew of hard-working, knowledgeable and safe guys! I couldn't believe the amazing equipment they used and used it well. Joe had originally come over to give us a bid and I could tell he really knew what he was doing. Everything he said would be done was. His estimate arrived promptly and was extremely professional and concisely explained.

I spoke with Carolyn Pimentel a few times on the phone and she's great. Joe himself operates the equipment. You can tell when the owner is onboard and is the one passing out bottled waters frequently that he cares about his people. My husband and I feel that we received great value for what we paid and we definitely recommend Pimentel Paving.

Thank you Pimentel Paving, Inc. for an excellent job completed on our private road. We share our road with 3 other neighbors and Pimentel Paving came out and gave us an estimate for the complete job and was able to invoice each home individual which was a great help. The job was completed as promised and all of us were extremely happy with the job, but Mr. Pimentel did not leave until the job was done perfect! We will continue to use them for all of our paving needs. Thank You!!

Joe paved our 1/4 mile driveway with three owners participating. He also performed additional work for all three of us. He was not the most expensive and not the least expensive, but provided considerably more work than others had in their bids. All work exceeded our expectations and was performed on time.

Dealing with Joe and Carolyn was a positive experience. The work was performed just before the earthquake, and Carolyn called to check on the driveway, as well as our home. A business does not get better than this company!!

I'd like to commend Joe and his crew for a great job that was done on my driveway. It was hard clay with serious washboard and he transformed it into a marvelous work of art. He created a masterpiece, complete with an eye for drainage, as it is a curved, downhill driveway which had serious runoff issues in the past.

Carolyn was courteous and prompt with the estimate costs, including an amendment, which I added at a later date prior to the transformation. Thank you Pimentel Paving for completing a job well done.

Pimentel Paving repaved my driveway and installed compacted rock on the shoulder of the road in front of my house last week. I can not recommend this company highly enough! From the start the owners went above and beyond in customer service. They were extremely professional, competent and helpful.

I have had some very bad experiences with licensed contractors in the past and Carolyn Pimentel took the time to show me how to investigate contractors more thoroughly on the State Licensing website. I learned a great deal that will help me avoid unethical companies in the future. I had gotten quotes from three other paving contractors, but none of them were as knowledgeable or professional as the Pimentels. For example, the contracts the others offered neglected to include important details like the depth of the asphalt to be laid or the type of rock to be compacted.

In addition, the Pimentels were the only ones who guaranteed their work. They offered to do a more thorough job and lay a deeper layer of asphalt than any of the other bids for a price that was less than two out of three other bids! They arrived on time, the owner, Joe, was on site through the whole project, the workers were courteous and the job was finished within the time frame promised.

They did a beautiful job for a very reasonable price and they guarantee their work, which none of the other paving contractors offered. I wish all contractors I deal with would be of the quality and integrity of the Pimentels; I would feel a lot less stressed about home improvement projects! Very highly recommended!

Pimentel Paving paved my driveway about 4 years ago and did a great job. Each year I contact them to slurry coat my driveway to keep it looking awesome. The people at Pimentel Paving are really friendly and responsive and they do terrific work. I get compliments from everyone on how nice my driveway always looks. I would recommend them for any size paving job and their prices are very competitive. I understand now why they are Diamond Certified and they stand behind their work. Kudos to Pimentel Paving!!

It doesn't get any better than working with the Pimentels!! Customer service and quality of work is superior.

Ours was a difficult job, a private street with 25 homeowners. After getting bids from several contractors, the Pimentel bid stood out as the best bang for the buck. We also liked the fact that it is a family owned business with great reviews. It took 2 years to get all homeowners on board and Carolyn held our hand the entire time. Both trucking and asphalt prices had gone up, but the Pimentels held their 2 year old price. On paving day, Joe arrived with excellent equipment and the crew worked together like a well oiled clock. Watching them put on finishing touches was like watching artists at work.

Our new roadway is beautiful! I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Joe and Carolyn.

Pimentel Paving paved our steep and challenging driveway over the past two days. They were efficient, amazingly hard-working, and they completed all the work that we had agreed upon, plus some extra.

The price they quoted us was significantly less than we anticipated, so we were able to complete about twice the amount of paving for our budget. Carolyn in the office was responsive and a pleasure to work with. I am happy to recommend Pimentel Paving without reservation.

Removed old asphalt and put new asphalt driveway. Graded 6' X 75" area next to road in front of house and installed compacted rock.

The owners were extremely professional, competent and a delight to work with. I especially appreciated the education in investigating licensed contractors that Carol Pimentel offered. I had gotten quotes from three other paving contractors, but none of them were as knowledgeable or professsional as Pimentel.
