"Hal Moore and his amazing Sanderling team transformed my old, crumbling oceanfront cottage into a fortified beautiful jewel that I never knew was hiding underneath the dangerously weathered structure and extremely dated interior!. From our very first conversation, I knew not only that Hal had the experience and savvy to preserve and improve the house, but also that I could trust him with a big project I'd have to manage from a distance. Neither of us imagined the ugly surprises that would be uncovered along the way, or the insane supply chain issues and subcontractor shortages that plagued the entire process. The team pulled off multiple miracles, found excellent solutions to SO many challenges...I'm convinced many builders would have been tempted to throw up their hands and walk away. But Hal had a vision of what was possible and he never gave up. I hoped for better protection from the elements and modest interior improvements. I got a virtually new house, inside and out, that surpasses my wildest imaginings and will I'm sure be a treasure not only to me, but to all who vacation there. The exterior is now maintenance-free, extremely solid and lovely; the inside is open, full of light, incredibly functional, cozy and comfortable, with lots of classic Carolina cottage charm. If you're so fortunate as to have Hal Moore consider your project, JUMP on the opportunity! You could not do better."

"Lou Sullivan did a fantastic job! I was immediately impressed when Lou showed up on time for the initial estimate. He reviewed the work I wanted done and was able to give me an estimate on the spot. The job required my gas tank to be moved which would have been a large fee from the gas company for the disconnection and reconnection. Lou was able to get that task done without an extra charge. He kept me updated on the progress throughout the job and he returned after each phase of the job to ensure the job was done correctly and to make sure the site was clean. I highly recommend using Carolina Decorative Concrete and I hope to use them again in the future for my driveway!"

"From the very first contact I made with Michael, he demonstrated expert knowledge of structural roofing repair and home improvement projects. He was very professional in his work and interactions with me. As soon as I called him, he spent at least 30 minutes speaking with me concerning his work experience and discussing the project that I was seeking assistance with. He quickly arranged to meet me at the home at a time convenient for me even though it meant close to an hour drive for him on a weekend. He was transparent in his business transactions, fairly estimating the cost of the project and providing documentation of costs. At each stage of this project, which involved demolition and rebuilding of the carport roof, Michael kept me updated via phone calls, text messages and email. He was very accommodating in doing additional work that I requested. He and his crew cleaned up the work area outside the home at the end of each day. The finished project was great. To say that I was pleased and satisfied with the work he performed on the home would be an understatement. Honest, reliable, hardworking, Michael was the consummate professional.

"Very happy with the level of service provided. Would have been 5stars across the board, the only negative is my house and back door had cement splashed from the pouring of the cement pad. Although they tried to clean it up, my house and door still has stains and unfortunately the glass door has scratches from the removal of the cement. The team that worked on my project was very good and professional. I would recommend this company, for sure. I would also recommend putting a protective tarp up before pouring the cement pad."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

Wet cutting is usually the preferred method. It controls dust, which helps protect your lungs and makes for a cleaner working environment. Plus, the water cools the blade, preventing overheating and prolonging its life while providing smoother, more precise cuts. The downside is the mess—water and asphalt sludge can be messy to clean. Dry cutting, though convenient if water isn’t available, creates a lot of dust, which can be harmful. This also increases the risk of blade damage due to overheating. So, if you have the option, wet cutting is the better method for most asphalt jobs.

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.

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.

Recycled asphalt is a durable choice for a driveway, but doesn’t have the same appearance and low maintenance as standard asphalt. For long driveways in rural communities, recycled asphalt can make a great choice. Recycled asphalt is 20% to 30% percent less expensive than standard asphalt and is better for the environment. 

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.
