"They provided an excellent service and a great value. Very dependable and professional. Never missed a week and their work was outstanding. Will definitely be using them again next year! In fact, we have retained their services for snow removal this winter."
"P & M Paving gave me a wonderful estimate. They finished paving my driveway in one day. I would highly recommend them and they do excellent work."
"Cullen and his team were great! Ripped out the exsisting lawn, brought in new topsoil and graded it, spread new grass seed, and covered it with mushroom compost. His team also cut new edging and mulched all the flower beds. Grass is coming in very nicely and we couldn't be happier with the result. Cullen and his team are excellent workers and would recommended to anyone needing landscaping services."
"Wizard was efficient and quick paving my driveway. It was completed in one day and his crew was hard working and had a good clean up at the end. I would highly recommend them. Earl K."
"Please don't confuse these guys with B&M paving. I made a mistake and called to complain about B&M and ended up having a great convo with the owner of P&M and gave them a job happily. P&M = GREAT. B&M = Just awful"
"Shane and Nick did a great job, very professional, my job was rather complex I had a concrete pad removed, French drain installed removed and replaced four main deck support post, poured 3 new large concrete pads and installed a 20’ retaining wall. I would highly recommend"
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.
After removing existing moss, consider using paver blocking sand to fill the joints. This specialty material hardens once placed and serves as an effective barrier against moss and weeds. From there on, regularly clean your pavers and try to keep them dry. You can also seal your paver as a semi-permanent solution — just make sure you reseal every 3 to 5 years.
You can expect your asphalt pavement to last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, or 25 years on average. The life expectancy of your asphalt driveway depends on the climate, the amount of traffic, and how well you maintain it. While you can’t necessarily control some of these factors, you can control the amount of maintenance effort you put into your driveway.
To prevent your asphalt from deteriorating prematurely, you should follow a good maintenance routine involving regular cleaning, reparation work, and resealing.
If you notice minor cosmetic problems with your driveway, you should seal it. Look out for cracks and holes on the surface, faded asphalt or concrete, and stains from oil and other chemicals. Replacing your driveway may be necessary if you’re dealing with significant problems—¼-inch cracks, large potholes, and puddles from drainage issues. The cost to install an asphalt driveway typically ranges between $4,200 and $9,000, significantly more than resealing. Consider talking to a professional to discuss whether resurfacing your driveway—a midway project between resealing and replacing—is a better option for you.
The recommended minimum amount for a paver base is 4 inches. From there, it depends on the kind of traffic the pavers will see and the current soil conditions. Two inches of paver base won’t create the amount of stability and support that pavers need to remain securely in place over time.
