"I needed to have a seal coating for my driveway. I had several estimates given to me and I chose to use Orion Seal Coating. I called and Chris the owner answered, who was very pleasant to deal with. He was professional, competitively priced, and explained what needed to be done. We set a date and time and he came on time just like he said he would. He prepared the driveway by cleaning and blowing the entire driveway edged where the driveway met the pavers and apron, so that there was no grass between them. He even used some kind of machine that smoothed the driveway to make it even and then seal coated it. Chris was meticulous in every aspect of what needed to be done. He was careful, knowledgeable, professional, meticulous, and careful throughout the entire job. There is no question that I am very satisfied with the price, workmanship, and professionalism of Orion Seal Coating. Without reservation, I would recommend that anyone needing a driveway seal coating or any type of paving job call Orion Seal Coating as I am sure that they will be as satisfied as I am."

"I hired Konop Quality Corp (Jarek) to build a patio in my backyard made up of pavers. He was very easy to work with and explained the differences in the various companies������������ products. His price was affordable and reasonable. After picking the type of paver I wanted, he and his crew spent about four days installing the patio. They arrived promptly and worked diligently to get the job done. Their work was meticulous and every day they left the site neat and as clean as possible, taking away the debris when they left. . I would very highly recommend Konop Quality Corp."

"Bobby Reitman and his crew handled a large asphalt repair in a commercial parking lot for me and everyone conducted themselves like true professionals from start to finish. I’m very satisfied with the work they did and there was excellent communication throughout the job. When I changed the scope of the work from small spot repairs to re paving major sections of the lot the team at Reitman scrambled to meet my needs and they were very fair with the pricing. Reliability & value was my experience with Reitman."
Your driveway contractor will probably recommend that you avoid driving on your new millings driveway for up to a week. Keeping pressure off the freshy applied millings will help the driveway to bind together. While the sun is helpful for binding millings, hotter weather can actually make the curing process take longer.
In most cases, driveway repair is worth the investment. Your driveway is one of the first things people see when they look at your home, so repairing cracks, chips, and potholes can improve your home’s curb appeal and overall value. Repairing your driveway is also almost always more affordable than replacing it entirely—an average of $1,765 compared to the cost of replacing a driveway, which typically costs around $5,000.
Three inches is a great thickness for a residential asphalt driveway that sees minimal to moderate traffic from cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks. However, a thicker driveway can better withstand the weight of a heavier vehicle, such as a trailer or a recreational vehicle. If you drive a heavy vehicle on a thin driveway, you risk cracking and damaging it.
You should place a layer of thick landscaping fabric directly over the concrete slab and then a thin layer of leveling sand over that to protect the pavers from moisture. For border pavers, you should plan on locking them in place with polyurethane adhesive. This will prevent them from shifting under foot traffic.
Cobblestone driveways can take a major hit on anyone's bank account, begging the question of whether it's worth it to build a cobblestone driveway. Some homeowners might prefer more affordable driveway materials like concrete or pavers, which can give a similar appearance to cobblestone without the high price tag.
Paving your driveway costs between $2,500 and $6,600, to put that in perspective. But for others, there’s nothing quite like the timeless look of cobblestone driveways.
