"Luigi Masonry did an excellent job removing and replacing our concrete sidewalk in Corona, Queens, on a busy street. The entire process was fast, seamless, and carried out with great attention to the safety of residents and neighbors. Despite the challenges of working in a high-traffic area, Luigi and his team handled everything with professionalism and care. We’re so glad we chose them—they were detail-oriented, efficient, and truly exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend their services!"
"We hired ASP a year or so ago to re-pave one of our commercial parking lots in Mineola and was quite impressed and pleased with their work. Because of the outstanding job they did, we hired them to do two more commercial parking lots of ours. We had some additional work done that included some trenching, curbs and resetting some belgium blocks. It was all a seamless process. I had the pleasure of working with Jon and his attention to detail was spot on! I could not have asked for a better experience. Without hesitation, I recommend ASP for your project! Reliable, professional, trustworthy, detail oriented, great customer service and affordable are just a few words to describe them."
"We hired Nicholas and Son for asphalt sealing and couldn?t be happier. Our driveway was in really rough shape, and we?d been getting sky high quotes elsewhere. Their pricing was fair and reasonable, and the work looks great. The crew showed up on time, explained what they?d do, worked efficiently, and kept the area neat. The sharp edges, even coverage, and clean finish really show they care about doing it right. We?d definitely hire them again."
"One of the best contracting experiences we have had. On time everyday, worked through the entire day, started and finished on the dates we agreed upon and at the cost quoted despite additional work that was required during driveway replacement. Exceptional customer service. Very highly recommended"
"It was a great experience hiring Sunni & his team, they were knowledgeable, professional extremely hard working, they were prompt & punctual. Sunni alway made sure I was happy with the work & that it met my expectations. I would 100% recommend Liberty NY Construction to anyone wanting to up grade their home with quality brick, stone or paving work they do it all & get the job done right!"
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.
Grass pavers are suitable for heavy foot or vehicle traffic, but they’re not as resistant as concrete or asphalt pavers.
The average cost to repair an asphalt driveway is around $2,459 to $2,500. However, prices can range from $100 for minor DIY crack filling to over $4,000 for more extensive professional work. Costs are often calculated per foot, with minor repairs costing $1 to $3 per linear foot and heavier damage like potholes, sinking, or crumbling costing $2 to $5 per linear foot. Patching smaller potholes can cost around $2 to $3 per square foot. The final price depends on the severity and extent of the damage, driveway design, local contractor rates, and whether sealing is included. For major repairs, it is recommended to hire a professional, and you may get a better deal by bundling repair and sealing services together.
Pavers are a type of permeable hardscape that can be used for driveways, patios, walkways, and other landscaping features. Unlike poured concrete or asphalt, pavers typically have a layer of gravel underneath to prevent water runoff from damaging your property—though you can also lay pavers on grass. Because pavers are installed piece by piece, you can customize a one-of-a-kind hardscape that best suits your aesthetics, boosting your curb appeal along the way.
If you notice minor cosmetic problems with your driveway, you should seal it. Look out for cracks and holes on the surface, faded asphalt or concrete, and stains from oil and other chemicals. Replacing your driveway may be necessary if you’re dealing with significant problems—¼-inch cracks, large potholes, and puddles from drainage issues. The cost to install an asphalt driveway typically ranges between $4,200 and $9,000, significantly more than resealing. Consider talking to a professional to discuss whether resurfacing your driveway—a midway project between resealing and replacing—is a better option for you.
