How does YardGrade rank driveway paving contractors in Toronto?

YardGrade tracks 50 driveway paving contractors working across Toronto, with a median 4.74★ Google rating over 3,008 reviews. Installed driveway paving typically runs $4–$7 per sq ft (CAD) according to GoGo Paving (Toronto, 2025 guide). YardGrade ranks every company by verified review data and verification checks, never paid placement, so the shortlist below reflects real reputation.

Rankings can't be bought. YardGrade scores each company with a Bayesian-adjusted Google rating, which weighs review volume so a 5.0 on three reviews does not outrank a 4.8 on three hundred. We then add small verification boosts for an active website, a listed phone number and real project photos. In Toronto, 60% of rated driveway paving contractors clear 4.8★, so ranking gaps are meaningful. Positions update as new review data lands. Read our full methodology.

  • Which parts are subcontracted, and who supervises on-site?
