"We used R.Georges Paving to re-pave our fairly long driveway (300+ ft long) and were very happy with the results. Ritchie and his crew were very responsive, professional, friendly and always on time. After the job was finished, we had one little issue and they immediately came back and addressed our concern. They also returned about a month after the paving and seal coated the driveway. And again, the results were excellent. We highly recommend R.Georges Paving and Seal Coating."

"Our driveway goes over a small creek and the side of the driveway over the creek was cracking and collapsing into the creek. Cooper Paving knew exactly what to do to rectify the problem and did it in an expert and professional manner. They responded promptly and professionally, fixing the problem and sealing the driveway.

"Excellent job!! It was a pleasure working with E. Stanley Asphalt Paving. Joe did the estimate and was my contact and was there with the crew when the job was done. When Joe left during the paving, after having discussed the plan and what was being done, he introduced me to his father who stayed there until the job was done. Before the repaving the driveway was in bad shape and no work had been done on it for over 35 years but it now looks great! This is a top notch multigenerational family business. I highly recommend them."

"We have had a fantastic experience with Xtracare from day 1! They are extremely communicative and focused on customer service. They worked with us through several landscape design iterations with detailed drawings and pictures of plants they would be using, and did a beautiful and efficient job during installation. When we had questions or concerns following their work, they quickly got back to us to address any issues. Xtracare clearly cares about quality and keeping their promises. We look forward to working with them for future projects as well. Thank you Xtracare!"

"Very thorough preparation--removal of prior driveway, substantial excavation to permit required base of crushed stone and sand, concrete footings around perimeter of driveway to stabilize edges of paver driveway. Very nice work setting pavers, setting trim pavers on edges, trimming pavers to fit where driveway wasn't square, and applying polymeric sand to seal joints."

"The quality of the work looks fine. The Angie's list price did not include materials which added another $1000 to the listed price that only covered services. The contractor also recommended additional work (power washing of brick & concrete). The power wash added more cost to the job."

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

The layer of polymeric sand under the pavers plus the polymeric sand that gets swept into the joints between your pavers holds them in place in a few ways. For one, the gritty texture of the sand helps lock the pavers together. Polymeric sand also contains bonding agents that get activated by water. Polymeric sand will take between 24 and 48 hours to fully cure, so do not walk on your paver walkway before this time.

Asphalt and tarmac are not the same thing. Traditional tarmac, short for tarmacadam, uses tar as a binder to hold crushed stone together. Asphalt uses bitumen—a byproduct of crude oil—to bind aggregate. Though tarmac was once a go-to for roads, asphalt has become the modern standard. And these days, most surfaces referred to as “tarmac” are actually asphalt. So, while the names may overlap, the key distinction lies in the binder—tar for tarmac and bitumen for asphalt.

You should place a layer of thick landscaping fabric directly over the concrete slab and then a thin layer of leveling sand over that to protect the pavers from moisture. For border pavers, you should plan on locking them in place with polyurethane adhesive. This will prevent them from shifting under foot traffic.

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.

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.
