"Dawson contacted us and came and fixed the problem right way, even after full payment was made and he didn't want to leave until we were happy. Hired Dawson over Memorial weekend. He said he was 2 weeks behind, had to keep calling after the 2 weeks, he had a break-down and couldn't come on the weekend. We were at our property and this was about one month later. He then indicated that he wanted us there when he did the work and we told him that we would be there the week of the fourth of July. Tried very hard to get a hold of him again, was told that he would start working 2nd of July. On the 4th of July an employee was moving sand and top soil in the area they were going to grade. Nobody after that showed up and was told that he needed the dozer and it was at another job site and couldn't be there. We told him that he wasn't going to get paid until we could inspect the work and he showed up when we weren't there and wasted a lot of our material by pushing it into the outskirts of the work scope. They should have up the sand first to grade and topsoil second but they mixed both and wasted. When we were back at the property we called to let him know, we answered and kept calling because he wanted payment and indicated he would come back in August to fix. After threatening to put stop payment on check he came back within 10 minutes with stidsteer and tried to fix but still unhappy with work. We are heading up using our 3 day weekend to fix. Hope our back yard doesn't still get a lake of water in the back."

"The person they sent out to provide the estimate was very knowledgeable and professional.  They were highly rated on Angies List, but had some negative reviews on other forums.  I was willing to overlook that based on the positive reviews from Angies List and their competitive price.  We were ready to get on their calendar and then they informed me that they wanted 50% down before starting the work.  That seemed pretty steep and my husband was not willing to put any money down since we were planning to supply the paint.  The Administrative person was willing to bring the upfront payment down to 30%, but we decided to go another way.  We don't agree with paying for a service before any work is done.  Otherwise, we would have booked the work with them."

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

Maintaining a driveway depends on its material. For concrete and asphalt, it's best to clean the surface thoroughly twice a year with a stiff broom and a pressure washer to remove accumulated dirt and debris. Sealing the driveway is crucial to protect it from water damage and freeze-thaw cycles. Before applying a sealant, pressure wash the surface to remove any loose sealant, dirt, or stains, as sealing over them will trap them. Any cracks or expansion joints should be filled with a flexible polyurethane caulk or asphalt sealer. In colder climates, use sand instead of salt for de-icing. Sand helps melt snow and ice without accelerating the freeze-thaw process, which can cause cracks.

A 500-square-foot driveway can cost anywhere from $5,000 to $35,000, depending on the type of pavers you choose. Grass and concrete pavers are more affordable, while stone and cobblestone pavers are on the higher end of that price range. You’ll save some money by DIYing the installation, though we highly recommend sticking with a professional for this type of driveway installation.

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. 

If your new pavers look dull or unclean, it is likely due to efflorescence, a chalky, white powder that forms when lime in the pavers gets wet. This condition often resolves on its own, as rain will naturally wash it away within about a year. For faster results, you can use a pressure washer to clean the pavers. Alternatively, consider using cleaning products specifically designed to remove efflorescence or applying sulfuric acid crystals.

One advantage of selecting a resin bound driveway over concrete or asphalt is that homeowners have a variety of colors to choose from. Manufacturers customize aggregate materials, so customers can choose browns, golds, greens, blues, reds, and blacks. Some manufacturers also offer metallic shades.
