"Kali did an excellent job on our new driveway. Troy was so helpful in providing ideas and advice and was always available for questions. A great hands on team, we couldn't be more happy with our new driveway!"
"Brady and his crew did a fantastic job! We love our new driveway and will definitely be calling him again for more concrete work. Highly recommend Brady’s Concrete and Construction!"
"My driveway was so broken up & water was running to my house & down basement wall. The replaced all concrete & got it away from my house & down toward the street. Alfredo went the extra mile for me. All the men were courteous, & knowledgeable. He cleaned up the areas afterward & made sure I was satisfied with the results. It will be so nice having a smooth driveway to my garage instead of endless broken concrete & holes. Plus, rain will no longer be running into my basement. He was more affordable than the other quotes I received & saved me so much money with great results. Thank you Alfredo Bravo."
"Job went extremely smoothly. Sue in the office was a great communicator and Shane and his crew did an outstanding job. I am very happy with the quality of materials used, time it took to complete the job and most importantly how well the driveway turned out. I will be calling them back for a patio next Spring!"
"Very high quality work. Came back and fixed a part that I had messed up when I got gas and oil on the driveway. Most of the neighbors had them come and do work on their driveways after seeing mine."
"THE WORKERS WERE VERY COURTEOUS AND RESPECTFUL.. I HAD A LARGE BLACKTOP DRIVEWAY. THE CREW RIPPED IT OUT AND PUT IN THE NEW CONCRETE DRIVEWAY IN 2 WORK DAYS. THE LAWN AND FLOWER BEDS NEXT TO THE DRIVEWAY WERE NOT DAMAGED AT ALL. NICE JOB. I WOULD USE THEM AGAIN."
Since it has a smoother surface using a mixture of finer rock and sand, 41A tends to be the best asphalt grade for a driveway, especially for residential driveways. Other options are available, but more homeowners choose 41A for a smoother asphalt driveway. Talk with your asphalt driveway professional for recommendations of the best grade for your specific driveway.
If your driveway is cracked, you can repave it with a process called asphalt overlay. Overlay is more cost-effective than a full replacement but is better suited for minor cracks and issues. If you have major cracks or other problems like water pooling, asphalt overlay isn’t your best bet. Plus, paving over a cracked driveway only extends the lifetime by about 10 years, whereas replacing it would start the clock over completely to give you up to 30 years.
Professionals restore the surface to a fresh, attractive finish by applying a new, even sealant layer.
Regular cleaning, sealing, and timely repair of cracks help maintain its condition.
If you’re looking for a similar, eco-friendly driveway material, you might consider one of these options:
Permeable pavement: This material is sometimes called “pervious” or “porous” pavement; it allows stormwater to drain into the subbase, eliminating storm drain costs.
Gravel: Consider paving your driveway with locally sourced gravel. By sourcing from a nearby source, your money won’t fund international shipping and will be invested back into your local community.
Natural stone pavers: Because natural stone pavers are made from organically-produced stone, there’s no new manufacturing required, limiting the environmental impact. In addition, water easily flows and drains through the gaps in the pavers.
