"Justin is excellent to work with. He does exactly what he says. No surprises. He demolished our old cracked driveway, formed, poured and finished a new driveway in under 3 days. Price was very fair. His crew shows up on time and works hard all day. They are respectful and leave the place clean when they are done. You can't lose. CK, Santa Ynez"

"Fantastic work!! Pacific Outdoor Living was such a pleasure doing business with. They have such great customer service. I emailed/called them with so many questions before and during the job. I was afraid I was going to drive them crazy, but they were always happy to help with the decision making. It was a pretty big job, and everyone involved was nice and professional, and they finished right on schedule. The paving stones look so much better than our old asphalt driveway. Everyone who walks by pays us compliments. I think it really improved our curb appeal. Highly recommend!"

"Tavo and the team at Bajascape turned my front yard from an eyesore to the best looking lawn on the street in just a few days. They were friendly, respectful of our neighbors and tackled unforeseen hurdles in the project with grace and an open mind. When I'm ready to continue with my landscape projects, these guys are the first folks I'll call."

"Cornejo Landscaping installed turf and border stones in our backyard. The installation was detailed with curves and bends for natural look using border stones and DG for a beautiful finish. We were very impressed with Christian Cornejo and his team as it was evident that they were skilled professionals. We were, in fact, so impressed with Cornejo Landscaping that we then hired them to replace our ugly old broken concrete driveway with beautiful tumbled stone pavers surrounded by DG and California Gold. We collaborated with Christian on the driveway layout and he provided excellent guidance on the design and presented cost saving options to work with our budget. The driveway demo and installation was exact and professional. We are 100% satisfied with the results and many of our neighbors have stopped by to comment on how beautiful the driveway looks. We highly recommend Cornejo Landscaping for any general construction and landscape needs. We would not hesitate to hire them in the future."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Cobblestone is just one of many driveway materials. Other, more economical, albeit less elaborate options include concrete, asphalt, and gravel. 

If you want a material that most closely resembles cobblestone, your best option is bricks or pavers. Both cost anywhere from $10 to $50 per square foot and can be laid in all kinds of patterns. Depending on the type of paver you choose, you can also get a good bang for your buck by investing in durable natural stone.

While the specific timeline for building a driveway can vary based on driveway length and local weather conditions, the average concrete driveway can require several days to lay down all of the different parts of the driveway. The curing process may require you to avoid using your driveway for a week following construction. Heavier vehicles should be kept off of a new concrete driveway for several weeks. Building a gravel driveway may take just one to two days in total.

While blacktop is a type of asphalt, the terms should not be used interchangeably, as not all asphalt qualifies as blacktop. The primary differences are in their composition, production process, and ideal applications. Blacktop contains more stone than other types of asphalt and is heated to a higher temperature during production—300°F or more—while hot-mix asphalt is heated to between 275°F and 300°F. The ratio of bitumen (a tar-like crude oil) is a key differentiator, though sources vary: some state blacktop has less bitumen, making it less durable, while others claim it has a higher ratio. Due to these differences, asphalt is generally more durable and better for high-traffic areas like highways and streets, while blacktop is more suitable for playgrounds and residential driveways. For a driveway project, it is best to consult a professional to determine the most appropriate material.

An ideal driveway gradient is between 2% and 5%. Anything lower than 1% or higher than 15% can cause problems for your car or property. A driveway with less than a 1% slope increases your likelihood of flooding and water damage, while a driveway with a 15% grade or higher can be too steep for safe traveling.

A driveway approach is the part of a driveway where the public road meets the private driveway. This section contains several key elements, including the driveway apron, the curb cut, and the end slope. Depending on the slope of the driveway, this area may also contain the trench drain.
