"The end results are amazing. The patio looks better than it did when it was built new 10 years ago! The crew was amazing and Alan and Liz (owners) were a total pleasure to work with. We would recommend Limitless Landscapes for any landscaping job, especially if there is a lot of hardscaping involved. They are wonderful to work with and we couldn't be happier with the results."

"Estimator was out a few days after I contacted them.  Very prompt.  Clear design plan and bid.  Work was preformed on time, withing constraints caused by weather.  Had a few plants that did not survive the winter and they were replace promptly and without any argument.  Workers were polite and careful.  Cleaned up after they were done.

"We were very pleased with the overall experience here.
Although I read some reviews stating that Mike was difficult to get in contact with, in my case he was able to come out the next day to provide an estimate.  When there for the estimate, he was extremely patient answering all of our questions and provided us with multiple quotes for both the driveway and patio as we weren't certain what we wanted to do yet.
Once we decided to go with Mike, he was a bit difficult to get in touch with to get on the schedule but it only took a couple of calls. Not a big deal.  I was warned that it could be 4-8 weeks before they could get out to do the work.  As others shared in their reviews, he had an opening pop up in his schedule and they were actually able to come out after only 2 weeks.
The actual work was terrific.  The crew was extremely professional throughout the process, and Mike was out on the job himself for the majority of the time.  The crew removed our existing patio and pavers and poured a new patio in one day.  The next day they did the entire driveway and sidewalk work.  All of the work looked outstanding when they were finished.  On both the patio and driveway regrading was also needed as we had significant settling in both cases, and they did a great job with that as well.  
Mike was extremely picky about the workmanship and made sure everything got done correctly while the work was being done. A couple days after the job, his crew came back out to do cleanup work and did a pretty good job but left with some items still unfinished.  I called Mike and he got the crew and himself back out to our house a couple days later and completed the rest of the cleanup.
All in all, Mike and his crew did exactly what was promised and did a very good job.  I would happily recommend MWC to anyone.

"Big O Concrete Construction was a great business to work with. Nacho listened to what we needed done with our driveway extension, and made suggestions as to how we could reduce water drainage onto our driveway. His team was courteous, prompt and professional."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

While blacktop is a type of asphalt, the terms should not be used interchangeably, as not all asphalt qualifies as blacktop. The primary differences are in their composition, production process, and ideal applications. Blacktop contains more stone than other types of asphalt and is heated to a higher temperature during production—300°F or more—while hot-mix asphalt is heated to between 275°F and 300°F. The ratio of bitumen (a tar-like crude oil) is a key differentiator, though sources vary: some state blacktop has less bitumen, making it less durable, while others claim it has a higher ratio. Due to these differences, asphalt is generally more durable and better for high-traffic areas like highways and streets, while blacktop is more suitable for playgrounds and residential driveways. For a driveway project, it is best to consult a professional to determine the most appropriate material.

The dimensions of a driveway apron vary based on local building codes, the width of your driveway, and the distance between the driveway and the road. On average, aprons range from 12 to 24 feet wide and 8 to 18 feet long. Typically, the end of the apron connected to the driveway matches its width—such as 10 to 12 feet for a single-car driveway—while the end at the street flares out to allow cars to turn in and out more easily. In some areas, you may not be responsible for the portion of the apron that extends beyond the sidewalk, but this depends on local laws.

The driveway apron is a technical term referring to where a private driveway meets the public street. If there is a sidewalk in front of the house, the driveway apron is typically on the opposite side of the public sidewalk from the driveway itself.

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.

Concrete is typically the best material for a driveway if you’re looking for longevity, cost-effectiveness, and ease of maintenance. But, it’s not ideal for areas with annual freeze-frost cycles, nor is it the most attractive option—although you can get it stamped or painted. If your location is consistently below freezing, asphalt may be a better choice.
