"From start to finish John Cooper paving did a top notch job, very professional.can’t say enough about the guys who did the job, helpful and friendly, i highly recommend this company when you need their service, you won’t be sorry you did"
"Asphalt Division did an amazing job at an amazing price and finished my (fairly long) driveway (including an area for a car turnaround) on time and ahead of schedule. The good experience started when my call was returned immediately, something that is rare these days where you are lucky if people return your messages at all. Next, John was able to quickly give me an accurate and fair estimate of the project price (using Google Street View) within a few minutes. Once the team was on site, they listened to my needs, and then executed them during the paving process. They were quick, professional, and cleaned up the surrounding area after they were done. I'm extremely happy with the results and highly recommend them to anyone for paving in Middlesex County and surrounding areas in Massachusetts."

"Noah Dyer is the owner of Knight Paving and was on site and working shoulder to shoulder with his employees from the start of the job to the finish. He was extremely courteous, and professional. He answered all my questions and did an outstanding job fixing the end of my driveway which had many old cracks due to the drivewayâ  s extensive age. I highly recommend Noah for any and all paving jobs a customer might have."
"Andrew did an awesome job and took every precaution to minimize damage to my lawn. In my opinion he went above and beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend Walkways by Andrew to anyone in need of any hardscape projects . Above all I feel it was an exceptional effort and result for a more than reasonable cost."
"Bernie and his team did an extensive project (walls, pavers, trees and bushes) in the front of our home. All the work and service was of the highest quality. The end result is exactly as we wanted. The team was great in coordinating with other providers (sprinklers, lighting). Absolute highest recommendation. We will be hiring them again to do our back yard."
"David from the De'Angele Landscape & Construction Company gave excellent service at a reasonable price, just as I had wanted. I opted for their weekly clean-up and maintenance services. I moved into my new house in Rockland which had a proper front yard. My new landscaping was created by David with proper design services and gave my home an elevated and elegant appeal. I highly recommend their services to everyone."
"Albertos was quick to respond and then by to provide a quote to replace my asphalt driveway. The work was scheduled quickly and was completed on the planned day. My new asphalt driveway looks great! Communication with Alberto’s was very good!"
The average cost to repair an asphalt driveway is around $2,459 to $2,500. However, prices can range from $100 for minor DIY crack filling to over $4,000 for more extensive professional work. Costs are often calculated per foot, with minor repairs costing $1 to $3 per linear foot and heavier damage like potholes, sinking, or crumbling costing $2 to $5 per linear foot. Patching smaller potholes can cost around $2 to $3 per square foot. The final price depends on the severity and extent of the damage, driveway design, local contractor rates, and whether sealing is included. For major repairs, it is recommended to hire a professional, and you may get a better deal by bundling repair and sealing services together.
After removing existing moss, consider using paver blocking sand to fill the joints. This specialty material hardens once placed and serves as an effective barrier against moss and weeds. From there on, regularly clean your pavers and try to keep them dry. You can also seal your paver as a semi-permanent solution — just make sure you reseal every 3 to 5 years.
Decomposed granite and caliche can both harden into a solid surface using a plate compactor. However, due to decomposed granite’s fine particles, it’s not suitable for driveway surfaces. Some homeowners use pea gravel mixed with a gravel-binding resin to bind the loose stones and create a solid surface that won’t shift like loose gravel.
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.
Yes, a paved or repaved driveway can boost your home's value by increasing its curb appeal and the functionality of your outdoor space. A new driveway can add anywhere from $5,000 to $20,000 to a property's value. An old, crumbling driveway can be a red flag for potential buyers and inspectors.
The amount of value added depends on the materials used, the design, and local market conditions. Concrete is often cited as adding the most value due to its long lifespan, though asphalt may be more desirable in colder climates. The return on investment is greatest when replacing a driveway that is in poor condition; repaving a driveway that is already in good shape will not yield as significant an increase in value.
