"Workmanship was incredible but even more important was the communication from Cesar AND the responsiveness. None of this â itâ ll be four weeks until we can get out thereâ . They were out within a week and completed in a single day. Thatâ s a 30â brick walkway and a huge fire pit area. Very impressed."

"Cody is a great, young, hard-working man.  He's willing to do anything and he's honest.  It's nice to come home to see a well kept yard after a long week.  
I hope that Cody can get to the other projects we've discussed - right now the rain is falling at such frequent intervals that he's working tons of hours to keep up with that work.

"Paul did an excellent job installing a walkout from my basement. They also did an extension to my driveway at the same time. They were in and out in 5 days. What an amazing amount of work to be completed in a short time. They were extremely professional and had no issues with me coming into the work area to see how things were being done. I would highly recommend Captains Concrete & Construction for any and all of your concrete needs."

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.

An asphalt driveway should be at least 3 inches thick over a compacted gravel base. Areas with poor drainage should have a thicker stone base. To install a new asphalt driveway over an existing driveway, the new asphalt should be at least 2 inches thick and the existing driveway should be in relatively good condition.

Gravel is the most economical and least expensive driveway material, costing between $1 and $3 per square foot. This is significantly cheaper than alternatives like asphalt or concrete. However, it's important to consider long-term costs, as gravel driveways require regular maintenance. You will likely need to add new gravel filling once or twice a year and regularly rake it to keep it level, which can add to the overall cost over time.

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.

The decision to repair or replace your driveway depends on the extent of the damage. If your driveway has a few small cracks, a simple repair will do the trick. If you see larger cracks and potholes, it may be time to consider resurfacing or replacement. Resurfacing is a great option if more than 25% of the surface is damaged, but if the damage is extensive—deep cracks or significant sinking—it’s best to replace the driveway entirely. A new driveway, with proper care, can last decades while patching or resurfacing might only hold up for a few years before needing more attention.
