"Mark & his crew were spectacular! They were professional & friendly; explained everything they were doing and what we needed to do to care for the shrubs.They also cleaned up everything such that you wouldn't even know they were here when you looked at my driveway and in front of the house where they had their trucks and trailers. I am already talking to them about other jobs I need done! I would recommend them without hesitation."

"Williams Paving was everything you’d want in pavers. Bill the owner came out at a convenient time for me, measured the driveway himself, and sent me a quote. We arranged a time for the paving and he kept an eye on the weather. Bill worked along side his crew and they were a hardworking and efficient group. It was really nice to see the way in which these folks worked together. They were very thorough. Everything was cleaned up afterwards and left in beautiful condition. I cannot praise them enough! They did a fantastic job and were very respectful of me and my property. Hire Williams Paving; they are fantastic!!"

"Dave and his crew did an excellent job stripping my old landscape beds of stumps, roots, and several tons of old river rocks. They are a team of professionals who arrived promptly in the morning and worked hard all day, taking care not to damage my porch or walkway with their machinery. Afterwards, they did a thorough job cleaning up and even washed the dirt off my driveway. I would definitely use their services again!"

"Service performed for a family member.
Paid $50 (no change): $40 for love seat; $8 for taxes on cost of Angie's List carpet cleaning deal ($100/ 3 rooms).
Didn't know I had to pay taxes; never paid on other services.
Please confirm Angie's list policy of taxes.
Went to loo at work after paying; should have waited to pay but person was already outside ready to go.
Carpet was OK but the love seat never had been vacuumed underneath cushions (dirty) and never cleaned underneath.
Love seat had cushions all back in place while wet from cleaning.
I had to remove all the cushions and lean them up on floor to dry.
Very disappointed in service.

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

Whether you should resurface or replace your asphalt driveway heavily depends on its condition. If the foundation is solid and the damage is minor, resurfacing is your best bet because it’s more affordable and faster than replacing the driveway. But if your driveway has foundational problems and/or severe damage, like large, deep cracks and potholes, then it makes more sense to replace it. 

Whether you decide to DIY paver installation or want to hire a pro, it’s smart to understand the process. First, you’ll need to prepare the area by clearing away grass and dirt. Next, you’ll add the paver base of gravel and sand before laying the pavers on top. You may need to cut pavers to fit your space or the landscaping design and add edging stones.

To ensure you hire a reliable and experienced paving company, you should start by finding companies in your area that have at least five to ten years of experience working in your neighborhood. Next, rule out companies with poor reviews online or a series of complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau. Since driveways affect your curb appeal, you should also ask each company for references and pictures of recent work to make sure the work the company does is professional and high quality. Finally, check that the company is licensed and insured.

While blacktop is a type of asphalt, the terms should not be used interchangeably, as not all asphalt qualifies as blacktop. The primary differences are in their composition, production process, and ideal applications. Blacktop contains more stone than other types of asphalt and is heated to a higher temperature during production—300°F or more—while hot-mix asphalt is heated to between 275°F and 300°F. The ratio of bitumen (a tar-like crude oil) is a key differentiator, though sources vary: some state blacktop has less bitumen, making it less durable, while others claim it has a higher ratio. Due to these differences, asphalt is generally more durable and better for high-traffic areas like highways and streets, while blacktop is more suitable for playgrounds and residential driveways. For a driveway project, it is best to consult a professional to determine the most appropriate material.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.
