Customers say: Quality work

"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."

"I had been trying to find a company that would handle a a rather small residential grading job for site prep before installing a fence. J&J contacted me at around 11am and arrived on-site an hour later to provide a very reasonable quote. Afterwards, they returned with their equipment and very efficiently handled the project exactly to my specifications. I am extremely pleased with every step of services provided and highly recommend this company. Thank you again for getting my project prioritized and completed!"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

You’ll first need to install a base underneath your pavers for extra stability and drainage. Otherwise, the pavers can sink into the ground, and you’ll have to reinstall them. Use a base gravel layer of 4 to 6 inches for walkways and 10 to 12 inches for driveways. Compact your gravel layer every 2 to 4 inches so it’s nice and solid. After you install your gravel base, apply a 1-inch layer of sand on top.

To adhere pavers to concrete, you can use either mortar or a concrete-specific adhesive. For border pavers, a polyurethane-based adhesive is a good choice as it expands and contracts with temperature changes, keeping them firmly in place. For the non-border pavers, polymeric sand is used between the joints to prevent shifting. In most cases, it is also recommended to lay a permeable sand layer below the pavers to ensure proper stability and drainage. Before starting, always take the proper preparatory steps for a professional result.

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.

Yes, you should lightly wet the sand with a hose before laying the pavers on top. This activates the bonding agents in the sand, ensuring that your pavers don’t shift around during the installation process. However, you should make sure that the sand is not soaked; overwatering can cause the sand and pavers to not set properly.

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.
