"Exceeded expectations! The driveway looks great plus they repaired the adjacent disturbed lawn and sprinkler system as well. They were also very contentious of the dust that was going to be generated when cutting the joints that they let me know of a side window that was open. I would definitely hire them again and you will love the work they do!"

He also put on a vent cap for the upstairs bathroom for me as well. The roof inspector was impressed with the work and the pictures that were taken. they were very fast, and cleaned up the yard and driveway. I highly recommend David Ernst"

"They did a super job. Driveway looks excellent with the new crushed granite. I was having run off issues on 2 sides of my house. After being leveled that problem is gone. Landscape rock next to retaining wall gives a nice facelift. "
"They did a great job coating a weak area in my driveway near the sidewalk to the front door which should hold up for years to come. Other than a small area near my garage floor seem that didn't get freshly coated, Signature Seal Coating did a much better job than the company I used last time I sealed my drive."
"Chris and his team installed a 6 zone lawn irrigation for my home near Lake of the Isles in Minneapolis. I am very pleased. Chris is a knowledgeable professional. The plumbing was subbed to Stewart Plumbing and they installed copper piping from the main. This is the only way to plumb an irrigation system in order to get the pressure necessary to drive the system. Chris and his team were in and out in one day. He delivered everything he promised and I would recommend his company very highly."
"Wanted to wait to see how things settled/ weathered, prior to writing a review. They were very nice and professional, cleaned the edges of the driveway, and put a thin layer of sealant on. Looked great at first, but over time (six months ) wore down .... maybe it needs to be an annual thing, or they should put two coats on. "
A solid driveway starts with the right asphalt mix, and for most homes, dense-graded hot mix asphalt (HMA) is the most recommended. It’s both durable and flexible, making it a reliable choice for residential use. A properly compacted 2-3 inch layer on a well-prepared crushed stone base will hold up for years. In areas with harsh winters or scorching summers, a slightly modified mix can help prevent cracking and rutting. No matter the climate, quality installation is just as important as the material itself, so hiring an experienced contractor ensures a smooth, long-lasting driveway built to last.
Yes, using recycled asphalt millings is an eco-friendly alternative compared to concrete. Millings are reclaimed pieces of gravel that are recycled into aggregate that can be used on driveways, patios, walkways, basketball courts, tennis courts, and more.
The cost to pour a driveway apron depends on the material and size. Concrete costs $3 to $10 per square foot, asphalt ranges from $2 to $5, and pavers are $5 to $15 per square foot. Additional expenses, like excavation, base material, and labor, can increase the total cost. For example, a standard 12x15-foot concrete apron could cost between $540 and $1,800, depending on local rates and additional work required.
