"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"
"This paving company is definitely on their game. Henry arrived @ the appointed time of 0800. He got all his employees assigned to their job, and when they began paving Henry was working with them as well. The driveway now looks beautiful & the price was very fair. I think this Asphalt Company is GREATâ ¼ï¸"
"Andrew and his team did an exceptional job enhancing the concrete deck around our pool. They also repaired damage to our driveway that had been left by another concrete contractor. From start to finish, Andrew’s communication was outstanding—he kept us informed before, during, and after the project. Most importantly, Andrew is honest, stands behind his work, and delivers on what he promises. If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality contractor, I highly recommend hiring Andrew and his team. You won’t regret it."
It went VERY WELL! We'd gotten an initial quote early in the spring and then revisited the idea with him during the summer before going ahead. We were both flexible in terms of time frames which made it easy to work in some additional landscaping at a reasonable additional charge. Most importantly, Valter was very accommodating with my erecting a decorative concrete block retaining wall around the base material before the final pour of the driveway slab. His crew alternated work days around my weekend efforts. I couldn't be happier with the final result.

"We highly recommend Henry and his team at Republic Masonry. Not only was the quality of their work excellent, the customer service was superior to that of many other companies. Henry let us know what work was done/was upcoming and was very professional in all dealings with us. The price for the job was fair as well."
Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.
Compared to options like concrete, asphalt, and pavers, resin driveways are far more flexible. As a result, they are more durable against chipping and cracking. Their bonded surface allows them to withstand extreme cold and heat without succumbing to the warping or cracking caused by freeze-thaw cycles. In addition, resin driveways are easy to clean and maintain.
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.
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.
While paving a driveway is possible to do as a DIY project, we don’t recommend it. Hiring a driveway professional to pave it will ensure that your driveway looks neat and clean and lasts for years to come, and it will also prevent a weak driveway and, potentially, damage to your foundation. Paving a driveway requires heavy machinery, and while you can rent the equipment needed, operating it close to your garage slab or around your home’s foundation can crack it and lead to structural issues.
