"People like Ed McDonald are the reason we left the big city to a smaller town. Nothing more than a verbal agreement and his crew completed a 5000sq ft job in one day to include sealing it. My wife was so excited she wanted me to get out of bed just to see the reflection from the street light. I only wanted half the driveway done this year but Ed "made me an offer I couldn't refuse". Couldn't have asked for an all around better experience."

"I can heartily recommend Dana Sandoval and North Star. We first spoke in September 2019 about re- landscaping our 30 year old home. Dana was through, timely and professional. She presented an extensive plan w reasonable pricing. Personal circumstances put things on hold until the spring of 2020. We kept in touch, revisited, revised and decided to phase our project. Dana got things going in August and we’re very pleased with the results. In addition I contracted w Dana/ ,North Star to perform bed maintain for 2021 and will renew for 2022. They are good people you can trust."

"Alberto from Bison Landscaping was extremely easy to work with from the very beginning when he examined the work I needed completed. He provided a very detailed cost estimate to fix my retaining walls in my backyard. He was very understanding, took precise measurements, and provided options to replace the damaged RR ties that formed my backyard landscaping retaining walls. Other contractors provided estimates without measurements which I found very odd. Alberto was thorough and provided multiple pictures of stone walls he installed for other clients. It was very easy for us to choose exactly what we wanted installed. He and his team battled some very poor weather when work first began, but made quick progress in removing all RR ties and tree roots. They also installed drainage piping and gravel along the walls' foundations. The team cleaned the entire work area and the project took only one week! We are so happy our backyard wall is fixed and looks great! We highly recommend them!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Asphalt is not a type of concrete. While both are a common type of pavement, asphalt is composed of aggregates (like sand and gravel) and bitumen; concrete is a mixture of cement, aggregates, and water. Here are some of the key differences between asphalt and concrete driveways.

A driveway approach is the part of a driveway where the public road meets the private driveway. This section contains several key elements, including the driveway apron, the curb cut, and the end slope. Depending on the slope of the driveway, this area may also contain the trench drain.

The decision to repair or replace your driveway depends on the extent of the damage. If your driveway has a few small cracks, a simple repair will do the trick. If you see larger cracks and potholes, it may be time to consider resurfacing or replacement. Resurfacing is a great option if more than 25% of the surface is damaged, but if the damage is extensive—deep cracks or significant sinking—it’s best to replace the driveway entirely. A new driveway, with proper care, can last decades while patching or resurfacing might only hold up for a few years before needing more attention.

Gravel is the most economical and least expensive driveway material, costing between $1 and $3 per square foot. This is significantly cheaper than alternatives like asphalt or concrete. However, it's important to consider long-term costs, as gravel driveways require regular maintenance. You will likely need to add new gravel filling once or twice a year and regularly rake it to keep it level, which can add to the overall cost over time.

Even with regular maintenance, most driveways don’t last much longer than 30 years. Alligator cracking is a clear warning sign that your driveway’s foundation is failing, and cracks that are deep and wide can let water in, causing more damage. Standing water is another red flag. If your driveway doesn’t drain properly, it’s going to degrade slowly. Finally, if you’re seeing dips or uneven patches, that’s a sign the base layer or soil is shifting. If these issues pop up, it’s time to replace your driveway.
