"Nathan from The Gravel Doctor called me promptly within an hour of when I sent the inquiry through Homeadvisor. He asked me questions about the job to verify my request information and clarify what I needed done. He explained how he would prepare the site and complete the job. He provided an estimate, too. Nathan sourced the rock for the job and called me back promptly. He had also checked the weather to ensure time to complete the job. We agreed on Monday. He gave me a time he would be there, and he was there on the dot. He arrived on the dot. Nathan even removed two additional foundation chunks to improve the site before grading it and laying down the ground fabric. He filled, graded, and packed the new gravel parking area. The rock supplier had delivered extra rock. Nathan asked where I wanted the extra rock. He cut additional ground fabric and extended the parking area, blending in the extension seamlessly. He left the job site neat and clean. I am very happy with the new parking area. That area is now an asset instead of an eyesore. The gravel is tightly packed and shows no sign of tire tracks or indentations when we park or drive on the new gravel. I give my highest recommendation for The Gravel Doctor!"

"First, we had them build new retaining walls approximately 140' bordering the back and sides of our home. They removed a smaller retention wall and old concrete patio and replaced it with new walls and patio paver blocks. Behind the retention walls almost all the landscaping was replaced with a couple exceptions. All of our homes downspouts were put underground into the yard. They finished planting most of the plants just before the winter freeze. They, also, took out 2 large willow trees, ground the roots, and planted 2 new maple trees in their place. In our second project, they replaced all the paver bricks and retention walls bordering the front of our home and driveway. They built a brand new set of paver/concrete combination stairs into our yard where it was needed. There were transplants of bushes, as well. Thirdly, they put in irrigation drainage on the west side of our property which was needed. We also have used Rojas Landscaping for all of our lawn mowing, as well as spring and fall cleanups through the years. They have always done a beautiful job - we couldn't be happier with their work. Lino Rojas is a pleasure to work with. He understands all of our landscaping needs and we trust him with any helpful ideas. He always provides a solution to our questions. The company has always been professional, on time, provide quality workmanship, and always the best pricing. We couldn't recommend them more for any job you may have."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

You can expect your asphalt pavement to last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, or 25 years on average. The life expectancy of your asphalt driveway depends on the climate, the amount of traffic, and how well you maintain it. While you can’t necessarily control some of these factors, you can control the amount of maintenance effort you put into your driveway. 

To prevent your asphalt from deteriorating prematurely, you should follow a good maintenance routine involving regular cleaning, reparation work, and resealing.

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.

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, using recycled asphalt millings is an eco-friendly alternative compared to concrete. Millings are reclaimed pieces of gravel that are recycled into aggregate that can be used on driveways, patios, walkways, basketball courts, tennis courts, and more.
