"We felt so lucky to find Cipriano and his crew. We completely redid our sizable backyard to convert to drought tolerant landscape and aspired to do as much of the work as possible ourselves, but knew we'd need help on some of the bigger, more complicated jobs.
We first found Cipriano for our irrigation. He had the best pricing and got his crew out and right to work so that we could catch up when the project was a bit behind. We played a bit of phone tag before finally getting work scheduled, but between phone and email we finally connected and got everything taken care of. He gave us options and made helpful suggestions for how we could keep costs down now but leave options open for future improvements. 
Immediately following that first round of work, we had a small leak elsewhere in the pipe system that may or may not have been related to the work his crew did. Still, Cipriano came right out and assessed the problem and helped us fix it. 
During the course of the irrigation work I mentioned we'd be doing DG and he said his crew did that as well. He showed us some impressive pictures that reflected the smooth curves we envisioned for our project. We still talked to a few other vendors but once again Cipriano had the low bid. So several weeks later, when we were ready, his crew came out once again and did an amazing job laying out our perfect paths and patios along the lines we sprayed out on the ground. It was a big chunk of work but with many hands on the job they were done in two days. 
With the paths we also had, not so much a problem, but an unanticipated outcome, where because of the curves some of the board began to shift and come away from the paths. Once again, Cipriano and his crew came right back out to not only fix the problem, but give the entire patio and pathways a fresh resurfacing just to make them look there best. We were so impressed by the extra lengths he went to and the obvious pride he took in his work. 
As our project wound down there were a few days when we needed help moving materials, planting, etc. We'd had such great experiences with Cipriano and his crew that we asked if we could hire 1-2 workers for the day and he was happy to help us. Those extra bodies made the final stages go so much faster and smoother!
We love our new yard and a lot of that is due to Cipriano's the great work and affordable rates. We've recommended him to all our friends, and know that he is in demand. So if you have to spend a little extra time on the phone or email, it's totally worth it!

"Our driveway was resurfaced with asphalt paving after years of patchwork repairs. Ken and his crew milled the old surface, compacted the base, and laid a fresh layer with clean edging. They even adjusted the slope to direct water away from the garage. The difference is clear in appearance and durability. It's a new property entrance."

"We couldn't have asked for a better experience! PGDG came out to give us a custom evaluation and rendering of the driveway gate, built, painted and installed the gate in a timely and efficient manner. They were even thoughtful enough to consider a wallstop on the side of our house to make sure the wind wouldn't carry the gate into the window! They had amazing service and built a beautiful product. We would definitely use them again!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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?

Your driveway contractor will probably recommend that you avoid driving on your new millings driveway for up to a week. Keeping pressure off the freshy applied millings will help the driveway to bind together. While the sun is helpful for binding millings, hotter weather can actually make the curing process take longer.

At a depth of two inches, a ton of asphalt covers around 80 to 100 square feet. However, the thicker the asphalt, the less surface area it will cover. That’s why measuring correctly is essential when estimating asphalt needs and costs to ensure you get enough material to cover your entire driveway, patio, or other asphalt surface.

A solid driveway starts with the right asphalt mix, and for most homes, dense-graded hot mix asphalt (HMA) is the most recommended. It’s both durable and flexible, making it a reliable choice for residential use. A properly compacted 2-3 inch layer on a well-prepared crushed stone base will hold up for years. In areas with harsh winters or scorching summers, a slightly modified mix can help prevent cracking and rutting. No matter the climate, quality installation is just as important as the material itself, so hiring an experienced contractor ensures a smooth, long-lasting driveway built to last.

Common alternatives to a gravel driveway include concrete, asphalt, brick, stone pavers, and permeable pavers. Concrete and asphalt are generally the most affordable options. However, concrete can be prone to cracking in cold climates, while asphalt may soften in areas with high heat and direct sun exposure. For enhanced curb appeal, brick, stone, and permeable pavers are popular choices, though their installation can be more expensive due to intricate designs. Stone pavers offer a natural look and are sometimes installed with gravel around them. Both permeable pavers and brick driveways provide excellent drainage, which helps prevent flooding and reduce water runoff.
