Q: Is asphalt milling better than gravel for driveways?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to weigh the pros and cons of each material and decide on your priorities for your driveway. Gravel won&rsquo;t be an appropriate choice if your driveway experiences heavy traffic. You&rsquo;ll find that you need to level and top it off regularly, which could make the material a much more expensive option.</p></div>

Q: Which is better, asphalt or concrete?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-asphalt-vs-concrete-driveway.htm">Asphalt and concrete have their pros and cons</a>, but it really depends on your priorities. If you&rsquo;re looking for durability, concrete&rsquo;s your best bet, lasting up to 50 years with minimal upkeep. Asphalt, on the other hand, needs more TLC with regular resealing but is cheaper to install and easier to repair. Concrete also wins in curb appeal and resale value, offering homeowners more customization. But if you&rsquo;re looking for quicker, more affordable installation, asphalt has the advantage. Ultimately, your decision should align with your budget, willingness for maintenance, and design preferences.</p></div>

Q: Is concrete more durable than asphalt?

• <div><p>In terms of durability, concrete driveways can last more than <b>50 years</b> when properly maintained, compared to the typical <b>30 years</b> for an asphalt driveway. However, the durability depends on the climate, base material and thickness, and thickness of the concrete or asphalt used. The longevity of concrete or asphalt driveways also depends on how well it&rsquo;s maintained and the amount of wear and tear it endures.</p></div>

Q: Can you pave over a cracked asphalt driveway?

• <div><p>If your driveway is cracked, you can repave it with a process called asphalt overlay. Overlay is more cost-effective than a full replacement but is better suited for minor cracks and issues. If you have major cracks or other problems like water pooling, asphalt overlay isn&rsquo;t your best bet. Plus, paving over a cracked driveway only extends the lifetime by about 10 years, whereas replacing it would start the clock over completely to give you up to 30 years.</p></div>

Called up Nick from A1 to come and pressure wash the driveway after a long winter of abuse. Couldnâ t believe how great it turned out. Will be calling for all pressure washing needs.

Antonio and his crew are wonderful to work with. They redid our driveway retaining walls with a beautiful stacked natural fieldstone. Communication of the scope and budget was very clear and there were no surprises. The workmanship is top notch. I highly recommend Bolani Masonry.

The worst contractor I have ever hired! Agreed to plant a new tree at the site of one he removed then left a large stump. When I questioned him he told me " I don't think you should put a tree there", then tried to charge me more to remove the stump. I wanted to be at home when this job was done...
