"I was extremely happy with Eric from Natures Edge Property Service. He completely cleared out an overgrown atrium with an overgrown tree and plants and used patio rocks and landscape rocks to transform it into a clean and neat area. I am extremely happy with the result. He?s very personable and completed the job in a day."

"Thomas is very easy to work with. The work completed far exceeded my expectations. We have an older drive-way that needed 3 patches and all three were done perfectly. The sealant they used for the top of the drive way also was applied perfectly. It looks like we have a brand new drive way! The only down fall to this whole experience is the customer service. We had Thomas out for an estimate in mid-April and the work wasn't completed until July 9th. Several phone calls had to be made by me during the lengthy wait for updates on when the work would be completed. I completely understand with this line of work that weather is a huge factor in completing jobs. And the quality of work they do is far superior to others. I just wish I would have been getting the phone calls with updates, instead of having to do the legwork myself and make the phone calls. Overall, I would use Larkin's Brothers in the future."

Paving Services FAQs, answered by experts

While blacktop is a type of asphalt, the terms should not be used interchangeably, as not all asphalt qualifies as blacktop. The primary differences are in their composition, production process, and ideal applications. Blacktop contains more stone than other types of asphalt and is heated to a higher temperature during production—300°F or more—while hot-mix asphalt is heated to between 275°F and 300°F. The ratio of bitumen (a tar-like crude oil) is a key differentiator, though sources vary: some state blacktop has less bitumen, making it less durable, while others claim it has a higher ratio. Due to these differences, asphalt is generally more durable and better for high-traffic areas like highways and streets, while blacktop is more suitable for playgrounds and residential driveways. For a driveway project, it is best to consult a professional to determine the most appropriate material.

It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting. 

To adhere pavers to concrete, you can use either mortar or a concrete-specific adhesive. For border pavers, a polyurethane-based adhesive is a good choice as it expands and contracts with temperature changes, keeping them firmly in place. For the non-border pavers, polymeric sand is used between the joints to prevent shifting. In most cases, it is also recommended to lay a permeable sand layer below the pavers to ensure proper stability and drainage. Before starting, always take the proper preparatory steps for a professional result.

Asphalt, which is stone mixed with tar, is the most common material for outdoor basketball courts because it’s so sturdy and versatile. However, you don't have to use it: another option is polymeric rubber, which has shock pads that can prevent injury. This option is a little more expensive, ranging between $16 and $25 per square foot.

Materials used for indoor basketball courts, such as hardwoods, aren’t really an option outdoors.

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.
