"We put Shannon to work! First up, the driveway. I found Shannon on Angie's List and called about getting a concrete driveway installed. He came out instantly ... probably the same day I called him. I must've called four or five others in Gainesville -- all of them I found at this site -- but only Shannon responded. We decided against concrete, and went with river rock, with brick borders. The job was fast and looks great. Second, the gutter drains. So, about the time I called Shannon about the driveway, I had called another joker about gutters. (I also found him on Angie's List.) Shannon happened to be out here with his team, installing the driveway, when the gutter guy was working, too. Shannon was keeping an eye on the gutter guy's work. After the gutter guy left, Shannon pointed a few things out that the gutter guy messed up (I'm clueless ... but Shannon was obviously right, and he showed me why). He offered to repair the work for free, provided I call him about getting the grass replaced ... Third, the grass. We resodded the whole front yard. Shannon came out, again, with his team, killed off all the grass, scraped everything away, and layed the sod down. Gotta say, the stuff looked good ... you could eat it like a salad. (I haven't done it yet ... yet.) He took the time to make sure it was done right, and I've got the best yard in the neighborhood. And he put in monkey grass and a vitex tree, which, according to Google, is apparently also called a "chaste tree." Indeed. We keep going back to the Southern Brothers well. And definitely will again ... there's a back yard to get fixed up, too. Bottom line? I guess you could call the other people on this site, but you'll either (1) never hear back from them, or (2) end up having Shannon come out and fix their work. Save yourself the time. Southern Brothers first."

"I had Nichols Concrete come out to do some concrete work, and I couldn?t be more pleased with the results! From start to finish, they were professional, dependable, and did quality work. They showed up when they said they would, communicated with me throughout the process, and made sure everything was done the right way. The finished product looks great, and you can tell they take pride in their work. If you?re looking for a concrete company that does quality work and treats their customers right, I highly recommend Nichols Concrete. I wouldn?t hesitate to use them again for any future projects!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

This creates a risk for your driveway to fail after asphalt curing because it doesn't have a lasting bond with the surface. In order to get asphalt to perform as intended, it's necessary to prepare the dirt surface correctly first. The loose soil base under the new driveway must be compacted until it is stable enough to support the weight of the asphalt.

Driveway aprons typically range between four and seven inches thick, though your town's building codes will likely have specific requirements. Additionally, you may need to add a layer of permeable aggregate in the excavation below your paved apron to ensure proper stormwater drainage.

While the specific timeline for building a driveway can vary based on driveway length and local weather conditions, the average concrete driveway can require several days to lay down all of the different parts of the driveway. The curing process may require you to avoid using your driveway for a week following construction. Heavier vehicles should be kept off of a new concrete driveway for several weeks. Building a gravel driveway may take just one to two days in total.

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.
