"Hector and his crew did an outstanding job.  My wife and I are very pleased with the work performed as well as how Hector provided excellent customer service.  He and his team went out of their way to ensure we were involved and happy with the process, from scheduling to explanations of the process and what to expect.  Hector gave us great advice on what to do after they are gone and what they can be called for for follow up.  The crew worked hard, long hours to get the job done as promptly as possible, even coming in over both Saturday and Sunday.  I have to mention that I called Hector after interviewing six other contractors in the area, that had not satisfied me to hire them.  I decided to expand my search on Angie's List and I saw Professional Concrete and all the great reviews it had.  I decided to contact them and ask if they would come out even though they are in Kenosha.  And they did come out.  Hector impressed us right away.  His patience and ability of explaining what to expect was what we were looking for.  The price we paid is fair and we are very happy.  The completed work is great.  The driveway is perfect.  The front porch is outstanding.  And the back patio is ready for next summer's cook outs!  We feel we have found a very good company for concrete work!  Thank you, Hector and team!

"Had a few problems at the start. Due mostly to Covid closing the asphalt plant. I had a concrete walk, Front porch and Asphalt Driveway installed. All work done in a professional manner. The sidewalk lined up with the Asphalt drive. Driveway had to be pitched in two different directions. No puddles and the water flow of the driveway is excellent. Cleaned up was so good it looked like they were never there. Sal went above and beyond what needed to be done. I am very pleased with the job and would recommend them to anyone wanting a perfect job done in a timely fashion."

"This was my first experience working with Ecoscape, and I was very impressed! Harvey was my primary contact. He is a great communicator and kept me updated on the status of the job throughout the process and responded to questions promptly and thoughtfully. He and his crew showed up when they said they would, and did an excellent job. I had a new paver and stone sidewalk installed to replace an existing concrete and gravel walkway. Everything was done very efficiently and effectively. Harvey provided some suggestions on the new paver pattern, and made sure that I was happy with it before installation. The sidewalk installation itself looks great! The crew also made sure to clean up the site when they were done. Everyone I met from Ecoscape was very polite and professional, and they do quality work for a fair price...I would not hesitate to work with them again!"

"This was a top notch job from start to finish. It is very rare that I would choose the most expensive proposal but it was clear that 3d Brick Paving was likely going to be the most capable, meticulous, and professional of the candidates. The resulting work was solid and beautiful. Watching the workers throughout, I could tell how much skill and care they brought to the project. Great job!"

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.

New asphalt goes through two stages: drying and curing. Drying typically takes 24 to 72 hours, after which the surface is solid enough for light use like walking or careful driving. While you may be able to park on it after 72 hours, the surface is still soft and should be treated gently. Full curing is a much longer process, taking anywhere from 30 days to a full year for the asphalt to reach maximum strength. During this extended curing period, the asphalt is susceptible to damage from heavy vehicles, sharp objects, and high temperatures. Factors like weather, the specific asphalt mix, and application thickness all influence drying and curing times. For the most accurate timeline and to ensure the longevity of your new asphalt, it is always best to consult with your installation contractor for their specific recommendations.

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. 

An asphalt overlay or top coat costs between $3 and $7 per square foot. For a standard, single-car driveway that’s 10 feet wide and 20 feet long, that’s a total of between $600 and $1,400. For a two-car driveway, you’re looking at a total of between $1,200 and $3,000.

Regular cleaning, sealing, and timely repair of cracks help maintain its condition.
