Bedrock Paving & Stone - Disreputable "company"
Bedrock Paving and Stone is a company lacking in both ethics and credibility. In May of 2008 I signed a contract with BP&S to have a patio installed at my home in Misissauga. At the time that the contract was signed I gave their salesperson, (Aris), a 10% down-payment, in cash, as part of a commitment to begin work. In mid June after many phone calls to the company, (you only get voice mail, and Aris' cell phone message box is alway full), I finally received a call back from them, A foreman named "Cosmo", who said that due to the wet weather they were several weeks behind schedule and I was probably looking at late August before they could get to me. For the last 2 weeks I have tried contacting them via both e-mail and phone calls. To date I have received no return calls. I also went up to their address noted on the contract. It reads as "2-3415 Dixie Rd. Suite 235, Mississauga, ON". There is no such address. It is bogus. It is my firm belief now, is that I will not see my 10% down payment again. Folks, we need to get together on this. I visited the Peel Police Community station at Square One today and filled out a report asking them to check into what I believe is a scam. If all of us who have been ripped off by BP&S and their minion Aris, do the same, they will realize that this issue boils down to nothing less than theft. You have nothing to lose by filing a report with the police. At the very least it will make them aware of this company and their scam.

Bedrock Stone and Paving rip off artists
Bedrock Stone and Paving Inc. (rip off artists) This Company Needs to be Stopped - I called this company for an estimate on stone work to be done in the front of my home. They were very quick to come by to provide the estimate. The salesman was very charismatic.We discussed a potential design of the walkway and was I told that I didn't have to decide at that moment, that the 'foreman' would come out before the job started and we would do a dry run of the design together. I was satisfied with the estimate and with the 'promised' start date. I gave the salesman 10% down and we both signed the contract. This was a Friday night. The salesman told me to call him the following Tuesday to confirm the start date. I did and was told he would call me in a few days to confirm. This went on for weeks. The last time I called, his voice mail box was full and no further calls were returned. I called a different phone # and spoke to who I believe was the foreman. He also told me he would call me the next week. No call. I called again and was told they would be in Mississauga the following week and would call me the day before they would start and that I did not have to be home. I proceeded to remind him that the salesman said they would do a dry run and that we didn't decide on the design. He proceeded to yell at me and swore at me. I have received no further communication from this company. 2 emails have not been responded to. I know the reputation the construction industry has so I made sure I checked them out with Better Business Bureau before I even called them. Unforturnately I entered the wrong district or spelled their name wrong because when I checked them out again after signing the contract there were numerous complaints, and had actually been charged and convicted for unfair business practices. My personal opinion is that they intend to take people's deposits and run. The amount is not large enough to sue which I'm sure is what they count on. I will however be lodging a complaint with the BBB, Ministry of Consumer Protection and the fraud department of the Peel Police. If you have been ripped off by this company you should do the same. They have been doing this for years and should NOT be getting away with it.” Check out this website. http://mwco.bbb.org/WWWRoot/Report.aspx?site=160&bbb=0107&firm=114****

Watch out for the Bedrock company
Watch out for this company Bedrock Stone & Paving Inc. from Canada, Ontario, Mississauga. I hired this company to deliver driveway extension & porch resurfacing with interlocking stones. They told me a beautifull stories and ‘how amazing they are’, taken my deposit money and then dissappear from the horizon. Nobody returned my calls, nobody cared about my complaints and nobody was at my side to fulfill a signed contract. I have asked them to return my money deposit, but I did not get it back until now. Check out the Government of Ontario Ministry of Small Business and Consumer Services department the ‘Consumer Beware List’ and find out that this company already been sued and convicted in the unfair business practices (enter ‘Bedrock’ as a search parameter and hit the submit button): http://www.consumerbeware.mgs.gov.on.ca/catsct/start.do If you appreciate your time and money, do not even think to hire such a bad company.

RIP OFF PLUS These bums could teach other cons
These leaches are so smooth in the art of the *** they could start their own school or at least appear on a CBC special. Cosmo as he calls himself even shows up in a new black high end BMW sports car. Peel Region Police fraud have a thick file on them and know the whole gang by name. Ann will answer the phone if your a new catch but if your home number shows up on the call display you just get the answering machine. Check the street address, it's a Boxes etc. mailbox in a strip mall. check the BBB and the Ontario Ministry website for a list of convections. Just google for lots more informatuion. The courts need to stop these bums once and for all with some real jail time.

ps..anyone considering this company needs to check out the BBB website with the number of complaints they've had (and the several since shut down shell companies linked to the current name).I wish I had've done this before I gave them a cent.
I had almost the exact same issue as Spidermurphy has posted above. DO NOT PAY THESE SCAM ARTISTS a cent.
I too am out my deposit as well. The salesman was indeed slick and nice and eager to take my deposit but endless calls to their constantly changing cell phone's which have full voice mail's or are turned off later, result in nothing months later.
And their co-owner is a first class arrogant *** of epic proportions. Karma will get you pal.
Hey,
I'm in a similar boat. I don't think they screw people, but they do over promise when they will get the job done. They are ridiculously hard to get a hold of, and the sales guy ARIS, does not answer his phone, and his voicemail is full.
I think they do good work (based on the references I have physically seen), but they are unreliable.
When is your project scheduled for..I'm curious to see what happens..
