"The project went extremely well. It was initially planned to start 3 weeks later, but when Adam had an open slot, he slotted our project in (Adam is the owner of the business). We are extremely pleased with the service we received. When initially reaching out to Hard Scapes LLC for an estimate, we found Adam very responsive. He arrived on time to provide the estimate, he listened to our vision for the project, provided numerous suggestions and feedback on our vision. We communicated primarily via email and text messaging and always received replies within a day or so. After a couple months of contemplating the scope of our project, we moved ahead with a plan that incorporated a number of our original thoughts as wells a various suggestions from Adam. The project took a total of 7 consecutive days (excluding Sunday) with a 6 man crew. The crew was excellent. My understanding is that many of the crew have been with Hard Scapes LLC for years with some members being with the company for over 10 years. Throughout the entire project, every team member worked hard and we didn't see any of them dawdle. The crew included a combination of older and younger members, all of which were very professional throughout the project. They arrived early (around 7:30am) and worked until about 4:30pm, taking one break for lunch. We tried to provide them coffee in the morning on the cooler days and they definitely seemed to appreciate that. When I had questions, the crew was very patient and thorough in answering them. They took time to explain what they were doing and why. They were very knowledgeable and clearly very experienced. The project was completed in a meticulous fashion. Before the project started, Adam had our utilities marked off so that nothing was inadvertently damaged. During the project, existing landscape features that we wanted to keep (like plants and stones) were carefully put aside so we could reuse them. Our landscape lighting was replaced after the project was done in a more professional way than it started out (landscape wiring was buried better and they even replaced a segment of our low voltage wiring with brand new wire). Our front yard got a bit chewed up from the tracks of the machines used to haul in dirt, gravel and stones, but when the project was finished, the damaged area was reseeded and covered with straw. No garbage or leftover materials were left behind and the clean-up job was fantastic. Our main concern when initially speaking with other companies was the lack of professionalism. We had companies that did not show up to provide estimates on time, who didn't provide any input or suggestions, and who were not responsive when we were initially discussing our project scope. We went with Hard Scapes LLC because it did not have any of the issues above and are extremely pleased with our choice. We would most definitely use Hard Scapes LLC again for future projects."

Paving Services FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Driveway pavers are often worth the cost. Paver types like cobblestone, brick, and concrete are highly durable, and permeable paver options can be tremendously eco-friendly. While you may pay more for a paver driveway, you’ll see great returns from the increased curb appeal and low maintenance compared to other types of driveways.

You’ll first need to install a base underneath your pavers for extra stability and drainage. Otherwise, the pavers can sink into the ground, and you’ll have to reinstall them. Use a base gravel layer of 4 to 6 inches for walkways and 10 to 12 inches for driveways. Compact your gravel layer every 2 to 4 inches so it’s nice and solid. After you install your gravel base, apply a 1-inch layer of sand on top.

Compared to a 10x20 concrete driveway costing between $800 and $3,000, a resin bound driveway of the same size costing $3,900 to $4,000 is the more expensive option. However, the cost still makes resin a cheaper option compared to a 10x20 paver driveway costing an average of $12,000.

In most cases, you don’t need a permit to repave your driveway, although some exceptions exist. If you’re widening your driveway and plan on widening the apron as well, you’ll usually need a permit from the Department of Transportation in your area. This permit costs between $50 and $300 in most cases. Most municipalities will also require a certified and insured contractor do the work relating to the apron and curb cut. You can contact your building department or ask your paving company if you need a permit. Your driveway professional will usually pull the permit for you.
