"The crews from Irish Castle Paving who worked on my driveway during the preparation for paving, and then again during the actual paving, were highly professional and very courteous. They did a fabulous job, making sure everything was level and being very careful around the recently installed pavers adjacent to my driveway. They were meticulous about cleaning up when they finished. I could not be more pleased with the experience and with my new driveway."

"The amount we paid was $600 less than any other quote we received. They were able to accommodate the short date we needed the work to be done to be in HOA compliance. The work took only 3 hrs to remove, re-grade, and pave the entire driveway. When they were done they did a thorough cleanup with only our perfect new driveway as evidence of their being there."

The team of two arrived at the end of their regular workday. They carefully began to dismantle the large wooden swing set that had been in place for well over fifteen years!  They hauled it to their truck for disposal. Then the digging started with many trips in order to continue to fill the 10 by 14 foot area with necessary materials. The foundation needed to be firm, solid and level to avoid any sinking once the metal shed was in place.  The two men worked into the dark because this needed to be completed for the shed installation the next day.  It was a time consuming job and they kept at it until the area was level with the surrounding area.

They cleaned up the driveway and it was a job well done. This is not my first positive experience with the Ware team. I know that I can count on them to get the job done.  I also know that if I am unhappy, they will respond to my needs.

"Half of their work is very good. The other half is mediocre. They patched, acid etched and coated our 58 year old concrete porch with polymer modified coatings. Less than 6 months later the coating is worn and chipping off. They acid etched and coated the garage floor and said it would probably crack someday. Someday was 3 weeks. They removed the old wrought iron railings and installed new aluminum railings whose angles and placement do not match. They still have not replaced the small railing gate protecting the basement stairs. They installed Unilock Pavers. The pavers are basically level. They were supposed to repair and reinstall our chain link fence gate. They dug out one post and reset it leaning north. The gate was worse than before they started. We had to pay someone else to fix it so that it stays closed. They removed and replaced the asphalt driveway and did an excellent job but we spent 2 weeks with the driveway dug down to the clay with machinery and debris everywhere. The two river rock sections are very well done. They work, when they please. They say “we’ll be here tomorrow” and finally show up days later with increasingly outrageous explanations. This project is not finished and we are very displeased with the quality of the work and the way that Uptime Builders do business."

"We played a bit of phone tag in the beginning. He was out of town so we didn't get a reply right away but he was apologetic about the incident. He managed to fit us in when he had a cancellation and get the work done even though we weren't home. They did a good job of filling in a few cracks and coating the driveway. We were very happy with the results.

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Common alternatives to a gravel driveway include concrete, asphalt, brick, stone pavers, and permeable pavers. Concrete and asphalt are generally the most affordable options. However, concrete can be prone to cracking in cold climates, while asphalt may soften in areas with high heat and direct sun exposure. For enhanced curb appeal, brick, stone, and permeable pavers are popular choices, though their installation can be more expensive due to intricate designs. Stone pavers offer a natural look and are sometimes installed with gravel around them. Both permeable pavers and brick driveways provide excellent drainage, which helps prevent flooding and reduce water runoff.

It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting. 

Whether it's worth it to install a heated driveway depends on how often you'll use it, your lifestyle, and your budget. If you live in a mild climate with little snowfall, then installing a built-in heated driveway system may not be worth it. If you live in a region that experiences mild snowfall, then a portable mat could work better. However, if you live in a region with heavy snowfall, it makes sense to invest in a built-in heated driveway. 

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.

Gravel is the cheapest way to extend a driveway. Gravel is an affordable, practical option that’s easy to install and perfect for DIY projects, helping you save on labor costs. It can be quickly spread and leveled to create extra driveway space without heavy preparation. While gravel doesn’t offer the same durability or finished look as concrete or asphalt, its low cost makes it ideal for budget-conscious homeowners who want a functional solution without overspending.
