"Update: We hired Eddie again to install a horizontal privacy fence. Eddie is a joy to work with. He is honest, communicative, and goes above and beyond in the execution of his projects. This project required his crew to remove existing chainlink fence and clear out overgrown trees and shrubbery in addition to the install. I am beyond pleased by the results. Eddie will be my go to for all upcoming projects. Driveway: Eddie and his crew delivered a great driveway addition for us. They even fixed the water flow issue we were having at the base of our driveway. Price was very reasonable and the quality was top notch."
"They did a widening of the driveway and showed up on schedule and they got it done and the price was exactly what I expected very good job and would recommend them to anybody. I am very pleased with the results."
"Dennis Deak and crew did exactly what we wanted. Our driveway and sidewalks were old and cracked and water did not drain away from our house properly. Dennis was able to advise us and then pour our new sidewalks and driveway to help solve our problem. The crew all worked hard and it is evident from the quality of their work that they are experienced and knowlegable. They also cleaned up when they were finished. We are very pleased with our new sidewalks and driveway!! We feel fortunate that a neighbor (who was also pleased with their work) recommended Deak Concrete to us. Thank you Deak Concrete!!!!"
"It was awesome. They were very professional. The driveway looked great. I was pleased with them. I have no problems at all. They did a good job on the driveway."
Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn’t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.
Recycled asphalt is a durable choice for a driveway, but doesn’t have the same appearance and low maintenance as standard asphalt. For long driveways in rural communities, recycled asphalt can make a great choice. Recycled asphalt is 20% to 30% percent less expensive than standard asphalt and is better for the environment.
The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your driveway ideas. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.
Yes, you can retrofit an existing driveway, but this usually involves cutting grooves into the driveway, installing the heating elements, then sealing them. While this is much less expensive than typical heated driveway systems, the final appearance could be diminished. Speak with a driveway paving company to confirm which design method is best for you.
Regular cleaning, sealing, and timely repair of cracks help maintain its condition.
