"Mike and his crew were awesome. I can’t say enough about them. I had to wait awhile for the job to be done due to the rainy weather, but it was so worth the wait. I had some concrete removed and my driveway extended with asphalt. Also had curbing installed to retain my neighbor’s driveway (I live in a row home). Mike and his crew were totally professional and have a great work ethic. Again, I can’t say enough about them. I will definitely have them back for another project in the near future. I highly recommend TMC Concrete and Paving."
"I would highly recommend Ben's pavement. Company responded to my internet inquiry immediately and actually came to house to provide and estimate same day. Contractor set up firm date for paving. Paving exceeded the 2 inch quote. In certain areas more repair and pavement was required yet contractor did not charge extra. Ben's also recommended Dan Hanson Construction for pavers in and around the new driveway. The two firm worked extremely well together. "
"Tri-State company is an excellent choice for any type of paving work. We had our driveway replaced and we are so pleased with the outcome. Tri-State gave us excellent service from start to finish. Excellent choice!"
"I have worked with Tedesco & Silvestra Paving on multiple projects for communities that I manage. Projects ranging from driveway repairs, sidewalk replacement to snow removal. I am a property manager and have utilized their services for several large projects. They perform high quality work are very professional and I will continue to utilize their services at all communities which I manage. Highly recommended!"
"We had an excellent experience with Plymouth Landscaping! We hired them to complete a deck removal and patio install, with some plantings around the perimeter. Joe and his team were always available to answer questions, and we had a LOT. Our yard is small and sloped and they came up with brilliant solutions in order to utilize the space we were working with. Jose, Arturo and Carlos were super knowledgeable, professional, cleaned up every evening before departing. I would highly recommend Plymouth Landscaping for your backyard projects!"
"Richard contacted me quickly and was at my house for a free estimate that same day. He started and completed my driveway re-pave a few days later with excellent results. Highly recommended!"
"Absolutely beautiful work. The only snag was that there were delays to the schedule at each step. I believed each explanation, I think between employee shortages, supply chain problems and COVID closings this year was really hard on schedules. I would call these guys again for paving or cement work. They left our yard better than they found it."
"Henry's got the job done quickly and for a reasonable price. Some extra work needed to be done like removing a cement area and bushes to make room for a wider paved driveway, and they did an excellent job. The driveway looks great, and I would highly recommend Henry's Paving!"
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.

If you're designing a new patio in an area with poor drainage, permeable pavers made from porous materials may help prevent water issues. Most permeable pavers feature a gravel-only aggregate base instead of a concrete base to allow water to flow through instead of getting trapped. While beneficial in some cases, permeable pavers come with higher initial costs and greater load-bearing limitations compared to traditional pavers.
Your driveway contractor will probably recommend that you avoid driving on your new millings driveway for up to a week. Keeping pressure off the freshy applied millings will help the driveway to bind together. While the sun is helpful for binding millings, hotter weather can actually make the curing process take longer.
Generally speaking, tiles are for indoor use, while pavers are for outdoor use. The main difference between travertine tiles and pavers is their thickness. Tiles are around 1/2 inch thick, and pavers are 1 1/4 inches to 2 inches thick.
Pavers are more rugged and can handle different weather. The extra thickness on pavers also makes them ideal for high-traffic areas.
