"A great team of people to work with on getting my driveway done. From handling the permitting process, removing the old driveway, framing and pouring the new driveway to managing the city’s inspection, Brogan did a great job. My new driveway looks great and I got it for a fair price. Highly recommend!"
"We used NCG for several years. Extremely reliable. I don’t recall a time they ever missed a week. Once a year or so we had them do extra lawn jobs that weren’t part of the weekly service. Always did a good job."
"Mike , Lou, and Miguel were great to work with. Lou (sales) was frank and upfront with the cost and reasoning for it. He was very forthright in answering questions. His bid was not the lowest so I wanted to make sure that the work and finished driveway and materials used were at par with his pricing. Mike (project manager) arrived at the agreed date and provided me with details regarding the project. He and his crew were great. They were extremely careful and attentive. They went out of their way to keep things clean, keep me abreast of the job, and to complete work as contracted. Mike and his crew even replaced a line of decorative blocks that were in the driveway area (most work crews are not that attentive to details). I would not have any problems in recommending this company to anyone contemplating a similar project."
"I am thoroughly impressed with this organization. Everyone involved with the removal and replacement of my driveway were incredibly professional. They were responsive, on time, respectful, and provided an incredible product using the best materials. Their attention to detail is second to none."
"Had Peter and crew remove and install a complete driveway. There was a massive amount of tree root damage. The guys tore out all the roots, poured in a new driveway, and then pressure washed the front of the house. Very happy with the results."
"I hired Fabian and his team to fill in our swimming pool and install a new deck and retention wall. After seeing the amazing results with the first project, I asked him to do the driveway as well and it looks fantastic. He and his team were incredibly reliable which was the most important factor that I considered. He finished the job within the specified time frame, and made sure everything was to my liking. I am 100% satisfied and highly recommend this professional company!"
"Mark at A&M walked the yard with my husband, explaining everything they would do, including some extra work, finishing some shrub trimming that my husband had been making his way through for weeks. They had a large crew that did the work and even worked through the rain to make sure they got it done on time and to our satisfaction. A&M did not quote us the lowest price, but they were the most professional team and we felt they were the right company to replace our sod. Replacing our sod was not just about price, it was about getting people that care about the job and the outcome as much as we care about it. The final result is a beautiful lawn. I'm sure we made the right decision and we would hire A&M Landscape Design again."
Like all driveway materials, asphalt can crack in the wrong conditions and with age. Many things can cause asphalt to crack, including shifting soil or settling under the foundation. Other common causes are driving oversized vehicles on the asphalt, tree roots, and using rock salt during the snowy season. Proper installation and sealing the driveway every 10 years can help prevent cracks.
Costs range from $3 to $7 per square foot, depending on the area size and project scope.
The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your driveway ideas. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.
Sealing coat asphalt after 6-12 months and then every 2-3 years is recommended.
The material that’s best for your private road depends on your property, the climate in your area, and your personal preferences. Gravel is an affordable option, but some homeowners don’t like how it looks. It can be a pain to remove snow from, and it requires more ongoing maintenance than asphalt or concrete. However, while these other options require less maintenance and make snow removal a breeze, they’re more expensive and will need repairs from time to time. Ultimately, you’ll have to choose the road material that suits you and your property best.
