"Just completed on job of 3 so far. Power washed my back Patio. Looks the best it has ever looked. They are coming back, Build me a new Mailbox and re=do my driveway + add a stone Cap to my Retainer wall. The Stone cap was beautiful, great job. My negative on the Project, was they took forever to do my Driveway. I was told they sent the wrong materials. So the owner, Alejandro told me they would order other materials to replace those. For a job that I expected to take only a week and a half, they took almost a month. And left a Dumpster full of concrete waste in front of my House for a few weeks making my House an eyesore to the neighborhood. They did finally finish the Driveway, Pave stone. It came out beautiful. But then Alejandro told me he could not Power wash the dust and waste material off, and put sealant on it, for a few weeks. He said he was running over budget, and needed $2000 more to finish the job. Project is still not complete. I feel, if he miscalculated, that should not be my burden to bear. I should not have to pay extra to complete the job."

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

In most cases, you don’t need a permit to repave your driveway, although some exceptions exist. If you’re widening your driveway and plan on widening the apron as well, you’ll usually need a permit from the Department of Transportation in your area. This permit costs between $50 and $300 in most cases. Most municipalities will also require a certified and insured contractor do the work relating to the apron and curb cut. You can contact your building department or ask your paving company if you need a permit. Your driveway professional will usually pull the permit for you.

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.

The most obvious disadvantage of permeable paving is that the cost is typically higher compared to non-permeable concrete, pavers, or asphalt methods. Also, the porous material can get clogged with dirt and debris, requiring cleaning and power washing more frequently than standard paving materials and methods. Although permeable paving is not ideal for highways, airports, and other surfaces supporting heavy traffic and machinery, it is suitable for regular residential driveways.

Compared to a 10x20 concrete driveway costing between $800 and $3,000, a resin bound driveway of the same size costing $3,900 to $4,000 is the more expensive option. However, the cost still makes resin a cheaper option compared to a 10x20 paver driveway costing an average of $12,000.

Pavers are a type of permeable hardscape that can be used for driveways, patios, walkways, and other landscaping features. Unlike poured concrete or asphalt, pavers typically have a layer of gravel underneath to prevent water runoff from damaging your property—though you can also lay pavers on grass. Because pavers are installed piece by piece, you can customize a one-of-a-kind hardscape that best suits your aesthetics, boosting your curb appeal along the way.
