"A night of 50-60 mph wind had a toll on a section of the house. When I first talked with Scott he asked if I could take a picture of the problem and send it to him. 20 minutes after I sent the picture he called back with an estimate on the siding repair, He arrived the following day ON TIME. He reviewed the repair with me and began work. In no time the siding was repaired and looked as good as the day it was installed. Scott is a pro and I would strongly recommend him for any siding project. Friendly, good price and great work."

"I called around to about 4 different roofers and received some pretty good quotes. However, Miza with EMDF Roofing was the fastest to get back to me at every turn. They replaced my roof in the winter time so I knew the weather was a big factor. He found the only 2 dry days in a month and had the roof done. The crew came in and worked non-stop. He came in right on budget. From inspection to clean up I am very impressed with the whole job. Even though there are few reviews I am very glad I chose them and suggest others do the same."

Asphalt and tarmac are not the same thing. Traditional tarmac, short for tarmacadam, uses tar as a binder to hold crushed stone together. Asphalt uses bitumen—a byproduct of crude oil—to bind aggregate. Though tarmac was once a go-to for roads, asphalt has become the modern standard. And these days, most surfaces referred to as “tarmac” are actually asphalt. So, while the names may overlap, the key distinction lies in the binder—tar for tarmac and bitumen for asphalt.
Asphalt driveways are affordable and able to withstand sub-zero temperatures. The asphalt surface makes it easy to plow snow, and it has excellent traction for slippery winter days. Another benefit: it absorbs heat from the sun and can then help to melt snow and ice more quickly than other surfaces.
By grading and compacting the base soil, ensuring proper drainage and stability.
