"They were in the neighborhood doing another job and told me they could pave the gravel driveway at one of my rental properties. I had gotten prices a few years ago, and even given the time difference, they beat the price by almost $1,000. They did a good job prepping the area and put in an asphalt driveway the same day."
"Rowdy was great to work with. called sunday and met with us ,explained the process ,gave estimate. We decided to go with his estimate and called him and he completed the driveway on monday. Fast ,friendly,attention to detail, beautiful job . WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRO TO ANYONE!! Thank you Rowdy for a great job ."
"Ryan was very helpful and professional. He trimmed my shrubs, uprooted a magnolia that was threatening the foundation of my home and beautified and trimmed my shrubs. He did an excellent job! I highly recommend him!"
"Johnny and Johnny were fantastic. Very respectful and punctual. They were able to get my driveway done within 36 hours of me calling and at a reasonable price. They worked quick but diligently. I would recommend them to anyone that needs a driveway sealed."
"The patio looks beautiful. I think the price was reasonable and in line with a couple other quotes we got. The reason I chose Dom was because he seemed very knowledgeable, and was very responsive. It was also a plus that as part of his bid he was able to use concrete block to block up a basement window (it was a hazard when you stepped off the patio directly into window well). He also made me feel comfortable with the procedure they used to jackhammer and pour new concrete over top of the basement (a part of the patio is actually serving as a roof for a small piece of the basement.) I am pleased with the patio and end result and would use this company in the future.
"Worked with owner Mike from the beginning...very professional and friendly...gave me a pretty decent price for the paving of my driveway and adding an extension...did all he said his crew would do and I was very pleased with the job done."
"This pro didn't excellent job to repair my retaining wall in my driveway. They even added a French drain gravel and replanted seeds. The wall looks great. They were very clean and courteous and respected my property. I would highly recommend."
"Trust Home and earth is a great company to work with. Great value for your dollar. Looks at all the details to ensure the new produce will match the old. I am hiring the company to do my sons patio pad right after my driveway expansion is complete."
The driveway apron is a technical term referring to where a private driveway meets the public street. If there is a sidewalk in front of the house, the driveway apron is typically on the opposite side of the public sidewalk from the driveway itself.
Think of the street as a way to capture all the elements on either side of the road, including the road—a street encompasses the homes or other buildings, the trees, and the road of a given area as defined by the beginning and end of the street on a map. A roadway, however, is the component of the street where cars travel.
Costs range from $3 to $7 per square foot, depending on the area size and project scope.
Asphalt driveways are affordable and able to withstand sub-zero temperatures. The asphalt surface makes it easy to plow snow, and it has excellent traction for slippery winter days. Another benefit: it absorbs heat from the sun and can then help to melt snow and ice more quickly than other surfaces.
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.
