"When Wayne came to give us an estimate, there was a crevice between the end of the garage floor and the driveway. Wayne said the crevice was caused by the salt from the cars eating away the cinder block foundation below the garage floor. The issue was fixed with concrete before the driveway installation. So not only did we get a new driveway, but we fixed a previously undiagnosed problem. In addition, the crew did a good job of cleaning up the street before they left the premises."
"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!"
I let them know a month a head of time that I wanted the driveway replaced before a Graduation party we were having at our house. They had no problem working with the timeline that I provided. They showed up, got to work, and finished all in one day. I was a little concerned how they would handle pouring around the retaining wall blocks and it turned out wonderful! The crew was great to have around. Almost two years later the driveway still looks as good as it day they poured it.
"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."
"It went great! They installed as soon as our grass was down. They let us bundle with our neighbor and have a military discount as well. Great place would hire again for fence purposes!"
"They showed up at the time they said they would and were very efficient, clean and detailed orient. Would recommend them for any driveway and sidewalk job. Will definitely look to them for future work as well. Hopefully a stamped patio in the near future."
With proper maintenance, asphalt milling driveways can last 30 years or more. Over time, you’ll need to regularly sealcoat your driveway. You should also have your driveway inspected every few years and make any repairs as soon as they are necessary; this will prolong the lifespan of your driveway.
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. Always consult a local driveway paving contractor to get an accurate estimate tailored to your project.
Common alternatives to a gravel driveway include concrete, asphalt, brick, stone pavers, and permeable pavers. Concrete and asphalt are generally the most affordable options. However, concrete can be prone to cracking in cold climates, while asphalt may soften in areas with high heat and direct sun exposure. For enhanced curb appeal, brick, stone, and permeable pavers are popular choices, though their installation can be more expensive due to intricate designs. Stone pavers offer a natural look and are sometimes installed with gravel around them. Both permeable pavers and brick driveways provide excellent drainage, which helps prevent flooding and reduce water runoff.
An asphalt overlay or top coat costs between $3 and $7 per square foot. For a standard, single-car driveway that’s 10 feet wide and 20 feet long, that’s a total of between $600 and $1,400. For a two-car driveway, you’re looking at a total of between $1,200 and $3,000.
Costs range from $3 to $7 per square foot, depending on the area size and project scope.
