Customers say: Quality work

"Eric Valdovinos Concrete is top notch. We have been looking for professional concrete contractors for a year and have been unsuccessful, until we heard from Eric. He came out and gave a quote which was competitive with other contractors. When we signed, He had everything planned and then executed flawlessly. His demolition guys, Tomas and Cergio took out existing sidewalks without damaging any adjacent work. For our driveway extension, Mario and Eric excavated an existing dirt weed garden. This was the most difficult part of the project. The team Juan, Damian, Cergio and Tomas set up the forms, grading and rebar, tied with wire. For the driveway extension, rebar was put into the existing driveway and extension was 6 inches thick. Finally, the icing on the cake - the pouring and finishing of the concrete to match existing work, the expansion joints were perfect and matched existing work. Eric, Juan, Jose, Hugo, Tomas, Damian and Pedro. Everything blended beautifully. I Highly recommend this team for any concrete work you will need, these guys are pros! They even improvised in our back yard to bring back a pathway that was demolished with existing concrete blocks! Ask Eric for the address and you can see for yourself his quality,"

"Elite Paving is great! I am very pleased with their work. Our driveway is about 100 feet long and a stretch about 50 feet long was erupting from roots underneath, causing major turbulence every time we drove over it. We got estimates from a few firms and decided on Elite because they seemed professional and experienced, and their estimate was reasonable (other estimates were up to three times higher). I’m glad we did. They did everything in a timely, responsive way, with no unforeseen add-ons, and our driveway is now in excellent shape. I really need to single out Brandon for praise. He was incredibly responsive and devoted. He explained everything in advance in an understandable way. He always responded quickly to my texts, even when I made clear no quick response was necessary. And he was clearly committed to doing a good job, even showing up on a weekend (with no extra charge) to manually speed up the drying process when some areas in the shade were taking longer than expected to dry. I was really impressed and pleased."

"Jeff was very responsive, we called one evening and he was there at 8 AM the next morning for a free estimate. We had a lot of questions about the process and he had responses that were right for us. We asked for and got references and called them and also went to see one of the driveways that he had completed previously. Our driveway is on a steep hill in the forest and is about 2/10th of a mile long. It had a lot of cracks that needed filled and a lot of moss that needed to be scrubbed off by hand. Plus we wanted an entire new top coat so it was not an easy job. The entire team was prompt and professional and did a great job. They completed the job in one day and in the end we have a driveway that looks brand new. I am sure we will call Jeff again in a few years if it needs to have a new top coat."

"Alfredo and his crew were great. We had him install a new walk way next to the house. They did excellent work, were on time and on budget. Alfredo made a couple of excellent suggestions to improve the project. We are very happy with the result and we recommend them."

"This was basically a demolition project. I had to have a 75 year old concrete circular retaining wall buried in the center of my asphalt driveway that had to be removed so that we could plant an oak tree. The wall was approximately 25 feet in circumference, 4 feet high and the concrete at least 3 inches thick. The bottom foot and half of the wall was covered with earth that had to be dug out by hand. Jose accomplished this extremely difficult job in a day and a half working right along side his helpers. He was able break up and haul away the concrete and did a great job cleaning up the site. He is courteous, professional and his rates are extremely fair. I would definitely recommend him for any job."

"Jose and Saul are not your average landscapers. They are well versed in landscape design, cement work, plant and legume knowledge, construction and property management. They have been in my employ for over twenty years. They are friendly, bilingual and timely in their appointments. I highly recommend Sola de La Vega!"

"I couldn't have found a better company. All County Paving did a super job. The owner, Jim, is simply the BEST! Reliable, great warm personality, good price, and was here to supervise his crew all day. So helpful and patient with answering every question and offering and explaining options. I will be recommending this company to everyone. I can't say enough good about the experience. Oh, and did I mention this is a family run business started by his Grandpa and they take great pride in having happy satisfied customers."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Driveways should be sloped with a minimum 2% slope—anything lower will cause precipitation and runoff to collect. A 2% slope is the equivalent of a 2-foot rise over 100 feet. One quick way to check the integrity of your driveway’s slope: no more than four inches of water should collect on the surface longer than 15 minutes after rain.

The choice between asphalt and concrete depends on your priorities, budget, and climate.

Concrete is generally more durable, lasting up to 50 years with minimal upkeep, and offers more customization options like staining and stamping, which can add more to a home's value. However, it is more expensive upfront and can be prone to cracking in cold climates where water can freeze and expand.

Asphalt is typically cheaper and quicker to install and is easier to repair. It performs better in colder climates. However, it requires more maintenance, including regular resealing, has a shorter lifespan, and can get hot and sticky in intense sunlight.

Ultimately, if durability and long-term value are key, concrete is often the better choice. If upfront cost and performance in cold weather are more important, asphalt may be preferable.

When hiring an asphalt paving contractor to install your driveway, ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective driveway contractor:

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you have worker’s compensation?

  • Do you use subcontractors on your projects?

  • Do you clean up after the job is done?

  • Who is responsible for any damage to lawn or landscaping?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Do you give free estimates?

  • What is the timeline for completion?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three references?

  • Can I see some of the work you’ve done?

Overall, a paver driveway is considered the easiest to maintain because homeowners are able to do driveway repair one piece at a time without impacting the rest of the driveway. Unlike paved options, paver driveways contain individual stones that aren't physically connected. By comparison, you may need to reseal or redo a full asphalt driveway if just one portion sustains a significant crack.

Three inches is a great thickness for a residential asphalt driveway that sees minimal to moderate traffic from cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks. However, a thicker driveway can better withstand the weight of a heavier vehicle, such as a trailer or a recreational vehicle. If you drive a heavy vehicle on a thin driveway, you risk cracking and damaging it.
