Q: Is a 20% slope too steep for a driveway?

• <div><p>While some areas may allow for a slope of up to 20%, this is often the maximum slope for driveways, with a few exceptions of up to 25%. Other regions may have a maximum of 12%, 15%, or 18%, so check with your local building department to ensure you&rsquo;re laying a driveway that is up to code for your location. </p></div>

Q: What are the parts of the driveway approach?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Q: What other driveway materials can I choose for my driveway?

• <div><p>Cobblestone is just one of many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/choosing-perfect-material-your-driveway.htm">driveway materials</a>. Other, more economical, albeit less elaborate options include concrete, asphalt, and gravel. </p><p>If you want a material that most closely resembles cobblestone, your best option is bricks or pavers. Both cost anywhere from <b>$10 to $50 per square foot</b> 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. </p></div>

Q: Which surfaces are scorpions unable to climb?

• <div><p>Scorpions have difficulty climbing smooth, non-porous surfaces like clean glass or polished metal because their pincers and feet cannot grip the surface effectively. While they are excellent climbers on rough or textured materials such as wood, stucco, or brick, slick surfaces prevent them from gaining traction or anchoring themselves. If you're trying to scorpion-proof parts of your home, using smooth materials for barriers or containers can be an effective deterrent strategy.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to build a patio?

• <div><p>The average patio takes anywhere from <b>30 to 50 hours</b> to build, including leveling the ground and paving the patio. If you&rsquo;re doing the work yourself, you might want to plan on spending significantly more time, especially if you don&rsquo;t have all the equipment or experience.

We had two walkways and a patio installed by this company. Their pricing is fair, they start when they says they will start, and the work is impeccable. I would highly recommend this company.
