"Josh and crew provided exceptional service. He is very dependable. He’s prompt, courteous, and a true professional. He pays attention to detail and the quality of work is top notch. He takes pride in his work and makes sure it is done right. He goes above and beyond to make the customer happy. He arrives on time, completes the job better than you imagined, and leaves the property looking better than when he arrived. I would highly recommend."
"Excellent service and responsiveness. Price slightly higher than other quotes, but was more responsive and had better timeline than other companies. Was worth the extra amount. Would definitely use again."
"Jim came out and gave me an estimate and we agreed on the price. He set the date and showed up with a crew to prep the driveway and then the next week came out with a larger crew to pave it. Honestly I was a little skeptical at first but when the pavement started pouring the crew jumped into action like a well oiled machine. Overall the driveway came out great. It was exactly what we wanted and at a prompt time. These guys are workers!"
"If you're looking to get your driveway, paved look no further great company. We've been researching for a while very happy we chose P&M we definitely recommend!!! Thank you"
"I had Summit Outdoor Services tear down an old patio wall that was crumbling and replace with a Versa-Lok block wall. Seth and Anthony arrived within the timeframe that was indicated, and they made quick work of the teardown and install. The new wall is an absolute stunner, and I am so pleased with the end result!"
If you wish to break up a cracked or broken paver for removal, you can use a hammer or mallet and a chisel to fragment the paver. As you’re working, be careful not to disturb surrounding pavers; the key is to work slowly and steadily and remove the broken pieces gently. You should also wear a mask and goggles to ensure that no dust gets into your eyes, nose, or mouth as you work.
Recycled asphalt is a durable choice for a driveway, but doesn’t have the same appearance and low maintenance as standard asphalt. For long driveways in rural communities, recycled asphalt can make a great choice. Recycled asphalt is 20% to 30% percent less expensive than standard asphalt and is better for the environment.
Permeable paving is a good option for a lot of reasons. It can help prevent flooding, keeps harmful chemicals from polluting our water, and can divert water away from your home’s foundation. Plus, it can add a rustic aesthetic to your outdoor area, might prevent pests who breed in water, and may even qualify for tax rebates.
There’s no single best asphalt grade—it all comes down to where and how it’s used. Highways and heavy-traffic roads need something tough, like polymer-modified asphalt (PMA) or Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA). Local roads and parking lots rely on the Performance Graded (PG) system, chosen based on climate. A PG 64-28 mix, for example, handles a broad temperature range while simpler, more cost-effective mixes are typically enough for residential driveways. The best grade of asphalt depends on traffic, weather, and your budget, which is why a professional’s input is always a smart move before making a decision.
Whether it's worth it to install a heated driveway depends on how often you'll use it, your lifestyle, and your budget. If you live in a mild climate with little snowfall, then installing a built-in heated driveway system may not be worth it. If you live in a region that experiences mild snowfall, then a portable mat could work better. However, if you live in a region with heavy snowfall, it makes sense to invest in a built-in heated driveway.
