"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. "
"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!"
"Great experience with Plymouth Nursery & Landscaping Co and John D. He designed the landscaping and hardscaping of the front and sides of my home. His workers worked for an entire week in 90+ degree weather until job was done. I am now getting so many compliments from my neighbors. We went from no urb appeal to the best house on out block. Thanks, John"
"Everything went very well. The new walkway is paving stones and is perfectly done. Beautiful. Their attention to detail impressed me: the shrubs were overgrown and over the walk way. They trimmed the shrubs back to where they should be and exposed the walkway."
"Superb quality of work and excellent service. Could not have asked for anything more. Will definitely hire them again and would recommend them to anyone. Outstanding!"
"JRH Paving repaved an existing driveway that was first paved in 2003 by another firm. The previous firm did an adequate job but created a water problem for a building that was down hill from our house. JRH gave me an estimate to repave the driveway, fix the water problem which wasn’t easy, and to do a little more paving than was originally there. The job was more than 10,000 square feet. They showed up on time, removed the surface of the original paving, fixed the water issue, re-paved the entire driveway, and did it in one day! The owner operated equipment and was on site all day, the equipment was well maintained, and his people were professional, office personnel to truck driver. I would recommend JRH."
"Not many snow removal services will also shovel walks. Touch if nature did this and did a good job in freezing temperatures!! Good job plowing driveway also. Came when he said he would!! Would recommend"
"This was a two project paving which required the company to come back in 3 months to add a sealing coat. Everything was paid for at the initial work, but the company came back and completed the job and they went above and beyond what they needed to do. I highly recommend this company"
"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!"
Compared to a 10x20 concrete driveway costing between $800 and $3,000, a resin bound driveway of the same size costing $3,900 to $4,000 is the more expensive option. However, the cost still makes resin a cheaper option compared to a 10x20 paver driveway costing an average of $12,000.
Whether you should resurface or replace your asphalt driveway heavily depends on its condition. If the foundation is solid and the damage is minor, resurfacing is your best bet because it’s more affordable and faster than replacing the driveway. But if your driveway has foundational problems and/or severe damage, like large, deep cracks and potholes, then it makes more sense to replace it.
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.
Three inches is a great thickness for a residential asphalt driveway that sees minimal to moderate traffic from cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks. However, a thicker driveway can better withstand the weight of a heavier vehicle, such as a trailer or a recreational vehicle. If you drive a heavy vehicle on a thin driveway, you risk cracking and damaging it.
The best ways to increase the lifespan of your driveway are to carry out proper maintenance and get repairs done quickly. First, reseal your driveway every one to three years to protect it from the elements. If you start to notice significant cracks, hire a professional to diagnose the problem before it gets more serious. You can also use sand instead of salt when de-icing your driveway (since salt is corrosive) and clean your driveway annually using a pressure washer to keep it in tip-top shape.
