"Richard and his crew were awesome! They did an excellent job on my walkway/patio combination as well as the new asphalt driveway! They were very professional and accommodating. Richard’s pricing was far better than any other company I had received for the job. He made suggestions I hadn’t even thought of which really made it easy to work with. He was very knowledgeable and his crew knew exactly what to do. He treated us with respect and as he would with anyone. Great customer service! We highly recommend his company and will definitely use them in the future when the need arises, Thank you Rich and crew for a beautiful job! We love you guys!"

"First time I'd done seal coating but I'm selling the home and the driveway was way past it's prime and had many large cracks. I thankfully did not have time to do it myself so I looked at reviews and called a couple. Frank SR is who I talked to and he impressed me with answers to my questions and then worked with me to be flexible on when to do it as I needed to powerwash and clean some really bad areas first. Finally his son Fank J came to do the work and did an excellent job. The thickness and quality of the sealer they use is MUCH better than the do it yourself stuff. When done, amazingly, around 90 pct of the big cracks I had not had time to fill were gone! I will patch he few remaining very large ones with cold patch asphalt repair as they are not really cracks. If I had done sealcoating with them previously I am pretty sure my driveway would no be in this bad a shape-but the seal coating did a remarkable job filling cracks and making he asphalt look in good shape again. I am very glad I picked them to do the work and would do so again for any asphal/paving. Price was very reasonable at around twice what it would cost me to have done it myself so it was only a few hundred more, I didn't have to do he work, and most importantly the result was far better due to the quality of the materials used and it's expert application laying it on thickly."

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

Driveway paving costs around $4,500 on average, but depending on many factors, you could pay anywhere from $2,500 to $6,600 or more. The size of your driveway will usually be the most significant factor, with more square footage increasing your costs. You can expect to pay between $2 and $15 per square foot for paving services. Some other factors that play a role include the following:

  • Quality of the materials

  • Contractor’s experience and expertise

  • Site preparation and grading, if necessary

  • Layout of your driveway

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.

While water-related pressure caused by poor drainage is one common cause of paver cracking, other factors can include ground movement beneath pavers, heavy loads and wear and tear over the pavers, and climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles. In general, pavers should be resealed every three to five years to prevent cracking.

Although you could try to lay stepping stones directly over grass, which speeds up the installation process significantly, this method often leads to a poor result over time. Even heavy paver stones will eventually slide or shift on top of the grass. Digging into the ground and following the steps we listed is the best way to lay stepping stones for a long-lasting result.

You can expect your asphalt pavement to last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, or 25 years on average. The life expectancy of your asphalt driveway depends on the climate, the amount of traffic, and how well you maintain it. While you can’t necessarily control some of these factors, you can control the amount of maintenance effort you put into your driveway. 

To prevent your asphalt from deteriorating prematurely, you should follow a good maintenance routine involving regular cleaning, reparation work, and resealing.
