"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."
"Jarek and his crew were the best! They were on time, professional and VERY hard workers. We hired them to install a 3' X 25' block retaining wall and decided to add stairs to the wall and then added a small retaining wall around the fence line to use for plants. They extended their stay and completed everything. They did a super job! We then hired them to do a block sidewalk and driveway skirt at another home we own. In the middle of the project we again added another project, Belgian block along the curb. They stayed until every project was completed. His crew worked on this project in over 90 degree weather everyday from 7:30-5 and worked just as hard. I would not hesitate to hire them again or to recommend them."

Asphalt, which is stone mixed with tar, is the most common material for outdoor basketball courts because it’s so sturdy and versatile. However, you don't have to use it: another option is polymeric rubber, which has shock pads that can prevent injury. This option is a little more expensive, ranging between $16 and $25 per square foot.
Materials used for indoor basketball courts, such as hardwoods, aren’t really an option outdoors.
While water-related pressure caused by poor drainage is one common cause of paver cracking, other factors can include ground movement beneath pavers, heavy loads and wear and tear over the pavers, and climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles. In general, pavers should be resealed every three to five years to prevent cracking.
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.
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.
Grass pavers are suitable for heavy foot or vehicle traffic, but they’re not as resistant as concrete or asphalt pavers.
