"Fernando & his team did a great job on my driveway. I was getting a lot of water run off and debri in my driveway caused from living at the bottom of the hill. They addressed my concerns and redid my driveway in a way I no longer have any issues with run off. Very nice workers, left no mess at all. Very happy with their work, great pricing as well, would highly recommended."

"An awesome experience from requesting a quote thru the finished driveway seal. Dustin showed up when he said he would to give me the quote which was very competitive and he showed up when he said he would to do the job. Both he and his helper are very personable. They went above and beyond to make my 1955 era driveway look wonderful. I would hire them again and recommend them highly!"

"Jimmy had materials delivered to my home and he and his crew showed up on time the next morning and did the complete job in 1 day. There were a few questions that Jimmy and I discussed and he stated he would come back the next day. True to his word he was there and he agreed with me on a few points which he promptly replaced and repaired. Jimmy was professional had a good crew, was respectful of all property, and did an amazing job replacing my complete walkway in 2 directions, with beautiful new stone. I recommend him highly and will use him again for any masonry work."

"Jimmy completed an extensive flagstone, Belgian block, and brick patio/long, wide walkway and front brick stoop repair and restoration today (May 3rd, 2020). The results were nothing less than spectacular! Beautiful, precise stonework Jimmy! Courteous, prompt and professional, it is clear that Jimmy is a Master craftsman at his trade. Jimmy's estimate was quite reasonable and within our budget for the project. There were no surprises. Jimmy performed the very same scope of work (no shortcuts) that the other masonry contractors I interviewed agreed to perform at well below their estimates. Upon completing the work, Jimmy and his crew cleaned up the area perfectly, so there was nothing that I had to do except behold and enjoy his work. As soon as finances permit, I will be calling Jimmy back to install a Belgian block apron at the end of our driveway. We (my wife and I) consider ourselves fortunate to have found Jimmy, and highly recommend calling him for your masonry project (s). You can expect high quality work at a price that won't bust your budget!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Gravel is one of the few driveway materials that can handle rain the second it’s installed. Unlike asphalt, which needs days to set, or concrete, which requires weeks to cure, gravel is ready as soon as it’s compacted. It’s naturally permeable, allowing water to drain straight through—with no risk of pooling or surface damage. Gravel driveways are one of the most affordable, at $1 to $3 per square foot, and can also last upward of 100 years.

Wet cutting is usually the preferred method. It controls dust, which helps protect your lungs and makes for a cleaner working environment. Plus, the water cools the blade, preventing overheating and prolonging its life while providing smoother, more precise cuts. The downside is the mess—water and asphalt sludge can be messy to clean. Dry cutting, though convenient if water isn’t available, creates a lot of dust, which can be harmful. This also increases the risk of blade damage due to overheating. So, if you have the option, wet cutting is the better method for most asphalt jobs.

You should contact your driveway installer before winterizing a newly installed driveway. Winterizing it before the asphalt or concrete has fully cured can damage the driveway. But in many cases, you don't need to winterize a newly installed driveway anyway since it's likely freshly sealed and won't have much damage yet. 

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.

A driveway's lifespan varies by material. Asphalt driveways typically last 15 to 30 years, while concrete driveways last longer, between 20 and 50 years. The longevity of any driveway is affected by factors like extreme temperatures, heavy traffic, and the quality of maintenance. Regular upkeep, such as filling cracks, resealing the surface, and ensuring proper drainage, can help extend its life. For gravel driveways, regrading to fill in uneven areas every year or two is recommended.
