"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."

"His work was outstanding in all respects. He was completely trustworthy.  His price was right in the middle of all the estimates I got. In my case he stuck to his estimate but he didn't find any unexpected damage while he was working either. He did the job in 4 hours less than quoted maximum time frame. I'd have no hesitation in recommending his services are using his services again.

"Two handymen came to perform a variety of odd jobs inside the house.  One of them was eager to get the job done right and he ended up redoing some of the work that the second had done incorrectly.  So, in the end, the work got done but it required careful oversight.  I would be willing to hire the first handyman again, but not the second.

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

Yes, pea gravel is good for driveways as long as your driveway isn’t built on a hill or any type of slope where it can slide. It’ll settle on a flat surface and create a suitable driveway over time, though some spreading initially will take place. If you're wondering how to make a gravel driveway in a high-rainfall area, using pea gravel could help you to cut down on costs needed for extra drainage solutions.

Driveways should be sloped with a minimum 2% slope—anything lower will cause precipitation and runoff to collect. A 2% slope is the equivalent of a 2-foot rise over 100 feet. One quick way to check the integrity of your driveway’s slope: no more than four inches of water should collect on the surface longer than 15 minutes after rain.

The stones do not work well on uneven ground. If the stones are not buried into the ground and made level upon installation, they almost certainly will shift or crack on uneven ground. Additionally, rainwater or water from sprinklers can run under the edge of an uneven paver, causing erosion. In a freeze and thaw cycle, trapped water under the paver can cause the problem to worsen by shifting the stepping stones around. Use a bubble level to make sure the ground under each paver is as even as possible, even if the nearby ground is uneven.

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. 

A driveway's lifespan varies by material. Asphalt driveways typically last 15 to 30 years, while concrete driveways last longer, between 20 and 50 years. The longevity of any driveway is affected by factors like extreme temperatures, heavy traffic, and the quality of maintenance. Regular upkeep, such as filling cracks, resealing the surface, and ensuring proper drainage, can help extend its life. For gravel driveways, regrading to fill in uneven areas every year or two is recommended.
