"Tom and his crew did a phenomenal job on a stamped and colored patio in my backyard. They were professional and had great communication. I highly recommend Patios Plus to anyone looking for a patio or driveway!"
"They did great. The entire surface was level and free from tripping hazards. It is important to have them seal the cracks because there will be water from snow melt and the concrete will move. This will get you the 5 yr warrantee just in case."

"My driveway was repaved about a month and a half ago. I was led to believe from the estimator, as well as the written estimate, that my entire driveway would be *milled*, or cut down (lowered) so that when the new asphalt was put down, my driveway would not be any higher (a concern for me, hoping not to add issues for me when mowing). Now my driveway IS higher and I have to mow so that I do not cross the driveway while mowing or else the mower deck will bottom-out. I have to wait to see about the quality of the asphalt; it seems like it is dried out and needs a sealer. There is also a bit of a hump where there had been a repair joint, so I am guessing it will not be long before I have a crack there."
"The owner, Thomas Burke, was great to work with in all respects. To start with he specified concrete that was stronger than what I wanted and this really pleased me. It told me he was willing to go above and beyond my requirements or minimums. He started with grading and removing dirt so he could build a retaining wall to hold back the grade for a new driveway. The guy he sent out worked very hard and did a near perfect job on the new wall. Like any construction project there were a few unknowns but he worked around these problems. Then he poured the new garage addition slab and finished it for me. Unfortunately it started to rain just before the final finish hardened so they had to redo some areas. Didn't come out quite as good after the rain but very acceptable. Then they immediately poured the driveway slab. No new showers so this came out perfectly. The concrete company sent out the second truck too soon so there was not enough time between pours to really get set. I think this second pour therefore did not quite get the grade Tom wanted. The driveway slab was pitched to drain water to match an adjacent existing slab and this did not quite work out. I have a small area on the new drive slab that holds water after a rain. It was a tough job to slope it right and it is within a quarter inch of draining. Like I said they were still grading the driveway when the truck showed up and I really think this cause the slight glitch. I have some more work to do next summer and am really looking forward to having Tom back knowing I will get a good price, a good job, and quick service done right. I would highly recommend ACT Contracting to anyone. "
"A beautiful job done,professional attention to the details. I couldn't be happier with the finished project. James and Mike provided excellent service."
Yes, most pressure washing companies use your home's water supply, typically from an outdoor spigot. However, some companies can bring their own water in a tank or truck. This is less common and may incur additional costs for filling and hauling the water. It's a good idea to ask a company which method they use when you call for a cost estimate.
Overall, a paver driveway is considered the easiest to maintain because homeowners are able to do driveway repair one piece at a time without impacting the rest of the driveway. Unlike paved options, paver driveways contain individual stones that aren't physically connected. By comparison, you may need to reseal or redo a full asphalt driveway if just one portion sustains a significant crack.
The best ways to increase the lifespan of your driveway are to carry out proper maintenance and get repairs done quickly. First, reseal your driveway every one to three years to protect it from the elements. If you start to notice significant cracks, hire a professional to diagnose the problem before it gets more serious. You can also use sand instead of salt when de-icing your driveway (since salt is corrosive) and clean your driveway annually using a pressure washer to keep it in tip-top shape.
It takes time for damage to accumulate on garage floors. After years without maintenance, they will show cracks, stains, and moisture damage while collecting layers of dust along the surface.
Regular sealing, proper drainage, and periodic inspections prevent premature wear and cracking.
