"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."
"We needed a new driveway as our old one was chipped and cracked in so many places and water was seeping into our basement after each heavy rainstorm. Crosstown Concrete came out and dug up our old cement driveway and poured a new one with new steps for our side entrance. We were so impressed by the knowledge, professionalism and courtesy of Greg's entire team. They were AMAZING! They worked tirelessly for days in the heat until the job was completed. His employees are the hardest working crew around! Our new driveway looks incredible and adds so much to our curb appeal. I will absolutely hire his team again for future work. I can't say enough great things about them!"
"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!"
"They came out to review what we had talked about. They had solutions to our problems with our steps, walkway and general landscape areas in front and back of the house.
We like the ideas, but some parts were a bit more them we could afford at this time. The estimate included a paver sidewalk instead of cement. They presented an $11,900 plan for new steps, new walkway, removal and replacement of scrubs in front and in back of the house. Also included was a 20x20 foot cement replacement of part of the driveway. About $1500 of this was for future work in the back of the house. The owner provided a printed layout plan of his ideas.
The company does a lot of work with paver walkways and we were looking more for a combination of cement with paver trim. Cement work is done by a sub-contractor.
The company was good in following up on us with out making us feel pressured. After 2 months, we decided to scale down our needs and look for ways to do the project in small pieces over the next two years. We have done nothing since.
If a paver look is what a person wants, this is a company to be considered. They knew the product and had the experience."
"Clack Companies, Is awesome, They delivered early and laid down wood under dumpster so not even a scratch on driveway. We called and asked if they would pick Dumpster up a few days early as we were done filling it, they showed up the next day! I recommend them for going above and beyond my expectations"
"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!"
A driveway's lifespan varies by material. Asphalt driveways typically last 15 to 30 years, while concrete driveways last longer, between 20 and 50 years. The longevity of any driveway is affected by factors like extreme temperatures, heavy traffic, and the quality of maintenance. Regular upkeep, such as filling cracks, resealing the surface, and ensuring proper drainage, can help extend its life. For gravel driveways, regrading to fill in uneven areas every year or two is recommended.
Yes, recycled asphalt driveway costs can be substantially lower than new asphalt. With new asphalt costing between $90 and $190 per ton, this option can cost as much as 10 times more than laying down asphalt millings.
Regular sealing, crack filling, and professional inspections help extend pavement lifespan and prevent costly repairs.
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.
An asphalt driveway should be at least 3 inches thick over a compacted gravel base. Areas with poor drainage should have a thicker stone base. To install a new asphalt driveway over an existing driveway, the new asphalt should be at least 2 inches thick and the existing driveway should be in relatively good condition.
