The costs for the paving quotation service start from a fixed price of €59, including VAT and excluding our service fees. This is the base rate for preparing the quote by the paving contractor in collaboration with our specialists. This amount will definitely be charged once the contractor has visited the location for an inspection or measurement to determine an appropriate price. The quote fee will be deducted from the total job price if you approve the quote. We only prepare quotes for jobs with a minimum value of €500. Examples include paving a patio, driveway, or garden path, relaying or raising existing paving, or small repair works. For all other jobs with a fixed price or an estimated price, you can find them here. The final job price may vary depending on the number of square meters, the sub-base, the chosen material (such as bricks, tiles, or natural stone), the required groundwork, and how accessible the location is.

How long does it take to prepare a quote for a paving job?
The time needed to prepare a quote for a paving job depends on the contractor who accepts the request, the information provided, whether a site visit for inspection/measurement is needed, and Zoofy’s follow-up to review, format, and send the quote. In most cases, you will receive a detailed quote within 3–5 business days, reviewed and checked by our specialists.
How long the paving job itself takes depends on the type of work. Larger projects—such as fully installing a driveway, patio, or garden with extensive groundwork—can take several days. Weather conditions may also affect scheduling, especially for excavation and sub-base work.
What do the paving contractor and Zoofy do when preparing a paving quote?
A Zoofy paving contractor ensures a professional execution of your paving work. The process generally includes the following steps:
- Consultation and assessment: The contractor contacts you after your quote request to review all information.
- Inspection of the paving job: The contractor assesses the situation and discusses your wishes and options. If needed, this is done on site, including measuring and evaluating the sub-base.
- Preparing the paving quote: The contractor shares the price with Zoofy. Zoofy then checks it with our specialists to prepare a clear and competitive quote.
- Sending the quote: You receive the final quote by email with the option to accept it or give feedback. After approval, the job is scheduled and preparation begins.
- Quote validity period: You can approve or cancel the quote within 3–5 days after it is sent. Cancellation can be done via the booking page or the email containing the quote.
- Preparation: This may include removing old paving, disposing of rubble, excavation, leveling, and installing a stable sub-base (e.g., sand or crushed stone).
- Payment: Payment is always processed through Zoofy. After the contractor finishes the work, you receive a payment request. For larger jobs or material purchases, payment can be split into installments in consultation with the customer.
How do I know if I have a good and reliable paving contractor?
Zoofy works only with carefully screened professionals. For the paving quotation service, hundreds of reviewed paving contractors are active. Each contractor has a profile with reviews from previous customers and an average rating of at least 9.2.

The quote is always reviewed and checked by our specialists to ensure it is complete and priced correctly.
How does contact with the paving contractor work after the job for maintenance and warranty?
After the job is completed, you can stay in contact with the contractor via Zoofy. If something didn’t go as expected, you can easily report it. Every professional is legally required to provide a warranty on the work delivered.
Want extra peace of mind? Through Zoofy, you can purchase an optional warranty package. This provides additional coverage on top of the professional’s statutory warranty.

Yes, Zoofy has a nationwide network of screened paving contractors. As soon as you post your job, we immediately start looking for an available professional in your area. In most cases, we can find a match within a few hours. If it doesn’t work out for some reason, we will inform you in time.
Who do I pay?
Payment is always handled through Zoofy. After the contractor has completed the work, you will receive a payment request by email. You can also pay directly via a convenient QR code provided by the contractor after completion. This allows you to pay safely and easily via iDEAL or another payment method. Payments are never made in cash or by card directly to the contractor.
