Customers say: Quality work

"Outstanding service and quality. Retaining wall is beautiful and we received value added when they planted the landscaping! Also added job of digging up the turf under recently installed fence and placing landscape fabric and stones. Looks very nice and will save us time trimming. Also appreciated John's suggestions for plant placement and brick/ stone selection. Very helpful. We would definitely hire Concepts Green for future jobs."

"If you are looking for good quality work and a fair price, definitely use these guys. I did some research and these guys use only good quality asphalt mix and a paving system that most of the others cheap out and don’t use. The owner has 40 years experience and still works with the crew to ensue the job is done right! They even surprised me and did a little extra custom work without extra cost because owner thought it looked better. Who does that in this day and age? Recommended to my other family members. Definitely would use again!"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

Chip seal layers gravel and a liquid bitumen one at a time on-site, while asphalt directly pours a pre-combined mixture. Asphalt must be sealed, but it will last up to four times as long as chip seal driveways. Aesthetically, chip seal has a natural, rustic look compared to the traditional asphalt slab.

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.

An ideal driveway gradient is between 2% and 5%. Anything lower than 1% or higher than 15% can cause problems for your car or property. A driveway with less than a 1% slope increases your likelihood of flooding and water damage, while a driveway with a 15% grade or higher can be too steep for safe traveling.

You’ll first need to install a base underneath your pavers for extra stability and drainage. Otherwise, the pavers can sink into the ground, and you’ll have to reinstall them. Use a base gravel layer of 4 to 6 inches for walkways and 10 to 12 inches for driveways. Compact your gravel layer every 2 to 4 inches so it’s nice and solid. After you install your gravel base, apply a 1-inch layer of sand on top.

An asphalt driveway should be at least 3 inches thick over a compacted gravel base. Areas with poor drainage should have a thicker stone base. To install a new asphalt driveway over an existing driveway, the new asphalt should be at least 2 inches thick and the existing driveway should be in relatively good condition.
