"We hired APS to pave the roads & install speed humps in our home and they did a fantastic job! It was a big job, grading the old gravel streets, tearing out some old failing blacktop sections and installing approximately 45,000 sq ft of 3 inch thick new pavement throughout our streets. We would highly recommend this company to anyone in need of there services and will gladly use them again."

"The owner JP and his staff are top-notch. The guys knew exactly what they were doing and they worked fast and efficient. I couldn’t be happier with the design and installation of my backyard"
"It was fantastic. I left a request on Angies List and John of JDS called me right back. He lives in cottonwood and I live in Prescott Valley. He called a service man in Prescott to see if he was available. Both of them called me right back and I missed their calls as I was on another line. When I did get back with them J.T. was at my door immediately. Took him 10 minutes to do the job and it was excellent. No mess, wonderful service, and priced so that I could afford it."
"Nothing but a positive experience from Aaron Trail. Very easy to communicate with. Very prompt, kept all appointments. The new paint looks amazing and just the colors we selected. All stucco repairs that were made were blended so well, there is no way to tell where the original issues were! I already have recommended them to friends and family, I will continue to do so. Very happy with Aaron Trail! "

Asphalt and tarmac are not the same thing. Traditional tarmac, short for tarmacadam, uses tar as a binder to hold crushed stone together. Asphalt uses bitumen—a byproduct of crude oil—to bind aggregate. Though tarmac was once a go-to for roads, asphalt has become the modern standard. And these days, most surfaces referred to as “tarmac” are actually asphalt. So, while the names may overlap, the key distinction lies in the binder—tar for tarmac and bitumen for asphalt.
If your new pavers look dull or unclean, it is likely due to efflorescence, a chalky, white powder that forms when lime in the pavers gets wet. This condition often resolves on its own, as rain will naturally wash it away within about a year. For faster results, you can use a pressure washer to clean the pavers. Alternatively, consider using cleaning products specifically designed to remove efflorescence or applying sulfuric acid crystals.
Gravel is the cheapest way to extend a driveway. Gravel is an affordable, practical option that’s easy to install and perfect for DIY projects, helping you save on labor costs. It can be quickly spread and leveled to create extra driveway space without heavy preparation. While gravel doesn’t offer the same durability or finished look as concrete or asphalt, its low cost makes it ideal for budget-conscious homeowners who want a functional solution without overspending.
Driveway paving costs around $4,500 on average, but depending on many factors, you could pay anywhere from $2,500 to $6,600 or more. The size of your driveway will usually be the most significant factor, with more square footage increasing your costs. You can expect to pay between $2 and $15 per square foot for paving services.
Some other factors that play a role include the following:
Quality of the materials
Contractor’s experience and expertise
Site preparation and grading, if necessary
Layout of your driveway
Paving is a part of hardscaping, so all paving is hardscaping, but not all hardscaping is paving. Paving involves laying down concrete or asphalt, while hardscaping can also include the use of paving stones, bricks, gravel, wood, and more. Hardscape features that involve paving are considered permanent and will increase your property taxes, while some other hardscaping features—like those involving bricks, gravel, and paving stones—will not affect property taxes. Paving also typically requires a permit, while hardscaping features considered temporary will not.
