"Had a very large driveway done (resurface old driveway) by this company years ago. Not long after the job was done you could see it start to fail. A few years after, we were left with a completely disintegrating driveway. In the contract we were told the blacktop material would be compressed to 2.5". Clearly you can see where the gaping holes are, that most areas are a 1/2" at best. Other areas are less. Thus the reason for the blacktop failed, causing crumbling and gaping holes in the main traffic arras and, deep cracks and splitting everywhere else. Needless to say we called and no one ever showed up to make it right. Posting this review to save other consumers from making a huge mistake by using this company! You will just be throwing your money away! We live with this mess every day! A total embarrassment! FIND ANOTHER COMPANY who knows what they are doing or at least makes it right when the do it wrong! Note: the price listed for our job is way out dated! This job would most likely be 3-4 times that amount today."

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

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. 

The most common causes of sunken pavers are poor base preparation and insufficient compaction. The problem could also be how your pavers were installed. If the soil beneath your patio or walkway wasn't compacted, it will pull pavers down as it settles. Additionally, using bare soil instead of making a paver bed with compacted gravel and sand can cause sinking over time. To fix sunken pavers, consider recompacting the base and addressing any drainage or erosion issues in the area.

While some areas may allow for a slope of up to 20%, this is often the maximum slope for driveways, with a few exceptions of up to 25%. Other regions may have a maximum of 12%, 15%, or 18%, so check with your local building department to ensure you’re laying a driveway that is up to code for your location.

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.

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.
