"Mark, with Patch of Heaven Landscape, is wonderful! I had him come out to my home in hopes to build an above ground garden & do some landscaping work around the front of the house. He came out within a week of our initial call and we discussed our options and worked up a plan. He got me a complete quote in 2 days! While, we are still waiting to make that final leap to re-do the front of the house, I wanted to for SURE go ahead and get the garden built to ensure I would have a summer / fall harvest ◡̈ Mark was MORE than helpful and a wealth of knowledge! He is quick to respond & answer any questions I may have regarding both landscape & my garden - his wife even sent me a couple different seeds to plant in my garden! Patch of Heaven truly goes above & beyond to ensure their customers receive the best service, quality, & care. I cannot recommend them more - looking forward to them coming back to help with my front landscape hopefully in the near future."

"Not very professional. They didn’t have any equipment; I ended up renting all the equipment on my credit card. At first the wrong equipment was ordered so I ended up paying for a bigger machine. I was charged for an extra day from what I was told. I also ordered concrete for the driveway. He used the machine and the some of the concrete I ordered to fix my neighbor’s entrance way; before he poured my driveway. Also I wasn’t given the information I couldn’t drive on it for 5 days until after they finished. My credit card was charged a couple of months after the job was done. (I did get this straighten out) I paid about $2500.00 over the estimate. The finished product do look good, besides the fact that they tore up my lawn."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

New asphalt goes through two stages: drying and curing. Drying typically takes 24 to 72 hours, after which the surface is solid enough for light use like walking or careful driving. While you may be able to park on it after 72 hours, the surface is still soft and should be treated gently. Full curing is a much longer process, taking anywhere from 30 days to a full year for the asphalt to reach maximum strength. During this extended curing period, the asphalt is susceptible to damage from heavy vehicles, sharp objects, and high temperatures. Factors like weather, the specific asphalt mix, and application thickness all influence drying and curing times. For the most accurate timeline and to ensure the longevity of your new asphalt, it is always best to consult with your installation contractor for their specific recommendations.

The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your driveway ideas. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.

The three most common types of asphalt are hot asphalt, MC cold mix, and UPM asphalt. Hot asphalt is used most often for paving and patching roadways while it’s hot and workable. MC cold mix asphalt cures more slowly than hot asphalt, but it can be used for temporary patches and repairs in low-traffic areas. UPM is also used cold, but it can be used as a longer-term fix, usable in almost any conditions at almost any temperature.

You can expect your asphalt pavement to last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, or 25 years on average. The life expectancy of your asphalt driveway depends on the climate, the amount of traffic, and how well you maintain it. While you can’t necessarily control some of these factors, you can control the amount of maintenance effort you put into your driveway. 

To prevent your asphalt from deteriorating prematurely, you should follow a good maintenance routine involving regular cleaning, reparation work, and resealing.

Cobblestone is just one of many driveway materials. Other, more economical, albeit less elaborate options include concrete, asphalt, and gravel. 

If you want a material that most closely resembles cobblestone, your best option is bricks or pavers. Both cost anywhere from $10 to $50 per square foot and can be laid in all kinds of patterns. Depending on the type of paver you choose, you can also get a good bang for your buck by investing in durable natural stone.
