Q: How much does it cost to pave a driveway?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-pave-driveway.htm">Driveway paving costs</a> around <b>$4,500</b> on average, but depending on many factors, you could pay anywhere from <b>$2,500 to $6,600</b> 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 <b>$2 and $15</b> per square foot for paving services. Some other factors that play a role include the following:</p><ul><li><p>Quality of the materials</p></li><li><p>Contractor&rsquo;s experience and expertise</p></li><li><p>Site preparation and grading, if necessary</p></li><li><p>Layout of your driveway</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Can you lay stepping stones on uneven ground?

• <div><p>The stones do not work well on uneven ground. If the stones are not buried into the ground and made level upon installation, they almost certainly will shift or crack on uneven ground. Additionally, rainwater or water from sprinklers can run under the edge of an uneven paver, causing erosion. In a freeze and thaw cycle, trapped water under the paver can cause the problem to worsen by shifting the stepping stones around. Use a bubble level to make sure the ground under each paver is as even as possible, even if the nearby ground is uneven. </p></div>

Q: What is an ideal driveway gradient?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How long does recycled asphalt take to harden?

• <div><p>It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It&rsquo;s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting. </p></div>

Q: Is three inches of asphalt enough depth for a driveway?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>
