"If you are needing concrete or asphalt work done, you could not make a better decision than hiring Mr. Corrigan and crew. We had multiple issues and concerns with an especially large driveway that was long overdue for paving. They were all solved yesterday. 100% satisfied."

"LTs Paving Solutions was referred to me by Home Advisor when I was looking for asphalt contractors for my deteriorated driveway and carport pad. I searched on Google, Yelp and Home Advisors sites for reviews of asphalt companies in our area. LTs Paving Solutions stood out with the highest ratings and highest number of customer reviews, as well as an A rating with the Better Business Bureau. I met with Timothy Oaks, owner and project manager of LTs Solutions. He provided a drone generated aerial photo with markup that showed an outline of the projected driveway with square footage which he forwarded to me on my phone during the interview. This was quite effective. He then proposed what he would do in detail. He gave a two-day timeline and threw in the replacement of a deteriorated asphalt path. I texted a few follow-up questions and Tim responded immediately. I accepted his bid for removal and replacement of the existing asphalt the next day. LTs Paving Solutions emailed a contract outlining the scope of the project. Very thorough with no surprises. On the second day of work, an official from the city dropped by and explained that the apron at the entrance of the driveway would require concrete instead of asphalt as per city codes. Since the city required concrete, Tim proposed a more consistent look by doing everything in the same material. Tims price to go ahead with concrete was reasonable and made good sense. I agreed to go with concrete. Everything went smoothly after the changes. The work was done with skill, precision, and I might add... artistry. Everything was as exactly promised in our first conversation. The driveway, carport and sidewalk look amazing. A perfect job."

"We have not done the work yet because it was more than we were expecting. We have an extremely large driveway. The estimate was detailed and contained all the info we needed. It was a good quality estimate. It was not hand written it was typed up and had a lot of detail. They got back to me within a few hours and someone was out to look at the work within 3 days, and they got back to me with the estimate. I would use them again."

"Project went well. Kathy got me a written estimate right away with options. Spent $140 to have lawn aerated. They notified me 48 hours in advance as I requested before the service and the person arrived Friday morning was very polite and easy to talk to. Followed my requests to do only certain sections of my lawn (no to the dog area). I hope to do more busy with them in the future."

"I would recommend the Ranches Landscaping for anyone. Jose is the owner and he does the work. His pricing was much lower than the bigger landscaping companies. Actually the bigger landscaping companies hire him and add pure profit for themselves. Don't waste your time getting the big companies. The Ranches Landscaping does a professional job. They take pride in their work and are also willing to negotiate on the price."

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.

You’ll first need to install a base underneath your pavers for extra stability and drainage. Otherwise, the pavers can sink into the ground, and you’ll have to reinstall them. Use a base gravel layer of 4 to 6 inches for walkways and 10 to 12 inches for driveways. Compact your gravel layer every 2 to 4 inches so it’s nice and solid. After you install your gravel base, apply a 1-inch layer of sand on top.

A pallet of pavers will cost about $300 to $700 per pallet. Each pallet covers about 56 square feet. The specific price you pay per pallet of pavers will depend on a few factors, including the type of paver you’re buying, the size and shape of the pavers, and how many pavers you need. In some cases, you’ll spend less per pallet if you’re buying in bulk for very large paver patios.

When asphalt cures, it typically changes from a very dark black hue to a lighter, more matte gray color. Cured asphalt also won’t be tacky or sticky to the touch or emit any odors from the asphalt mix. Additionally, the surface of fully cured asphalt won’t deform under any pressure.

Yes, you should lightly wet the sand with a hose before laying the pavers on top. This activates the bonding agents in the sand, ensuring that your pavers don’t shift around during the installation process. However, you should make sure that the sand is not soaked; overwatering can cause the sand and pavers to not set properly.
