"Victor and his team were professional and courteous. They did an excellent job of pouring concrete slab and erecting a metal garage for us. Victor patiently guided me through the decision making process, answering the many questions I had. He responded to my texts and calls in a very timely manner. I will definitely use them for any future needs."
"Prompt communication and responses. Work was done on time, on budget and as promised. Responded quickly to calls and texts and was accommodating on the schedule. Pleasant to work with and I have shared their contact info with others on our street who need their retaining walls replaced or installed. Great price for quality work!"
"These guys saved my job and the landscaping too! My boss had been wanting myself and my team to take care of the landscaping for over a year. They came in & removed the birds nest under our site sign, added GREAT mulch, & made sure our landscaping got what it needed (water & love). When we hired them, I literally said “I don’t want my boss to come to town and talk to me about landscaping. I want him to talk to me about BBQ”. Since they’ve started landscaping hasn’t been a part of any conversation my boss and I have. They’re not only good at what they do but, they care as well."
"Shane and Wasey were great to work with. I have needed driveway improvements to my house for over a decade. I also had some drainage issues that needed to be addressed. Shane and Wasey really listened to what I thought I needed and wanted and worked with me to make it happen. Prior to calling Stryker, I had received 2 quotes and accepted one to start work on 6/7/2021. I was ghosted by that contractor. I reached out to Stryker, they came and looked at my job the same day and had me a quote by the next morning (6/23/2021). I asked for some additional wording on the quote, which Wasey added without issue. They came the day we agreed upon (7/8/2021) and completed the work just like they said they would!!! I am very happy with the driveway. I will hire them again if needed and will recommend to anyone looking for this type of work. Thanks guys!!!!"

In the United States, roads are usually categorized as one of three types: public roads, other drivable roads, and non-drivable roads. These categories dictate how a road can be used; a non-drivable road might be classified that way because it is heavily damaged and unsafe for cars.
Common alternatives to a gravel driveway include concrete, asphalt, brick, stone pavers, and permeable pavers. Concrete and asphalt are generally the most affordable options. However, concrete can be prone to cracking in cold climates, while asphalt may soften in areas with high heat and direct sun exposure. For enhanced curb appeal, brick, stone, and permeable pavers are popular choices, though their installation can be more expensive due to intricate designs. Stone pavers offer a natural look and are sometimes installed with gravel around them. Both permeable pavers and brick driveways provide excellent drainage, which helps prevent flooding and reduce water runoff.
Like all driveway materials, asphalt can crack in the wrong conditions and with age. Many things can cause asphalt to crack, including shifting soil or settling under the foundation. Other common causes are driving oversized vehicles on the asphalt, tree roots, and using rock salt during the snowy season. Proper installation and sealing the driveway every 10 years can help prevent cracks.
Asphalt edging secures the sides of your driveway to prevent crumbling and cracking over time. Most driveways have edges with a 45-degree grading. This helps transfer some of the stress from the asphalt to the ground underneath. If your driveway doesn’t have proper edging, the pressure from your car may break down the edges over time.
Regular sealing, crack filling, and professional inspections help extend pavement lifespan and prevent costly repairs.
