"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!"
"Patrick and company were great. They provided quick turnaround, estimates, and great workmanship. I got my driveway repaved in addition to pavers put in. The prices were fair and everything was laid out at the beginning. The estimates given were what I paid in the end. I would not hesitate to recommend the company to anyone looking for paving/masonry needs."
"I have been an Angi fan for many years and take these comments very seriously. We have hired this company to perform our seasonal landscape clean up and mulch for at least 5 seasons. The property takes over 20 yards of mulch and they never cut corners. Always working hard to get the plant beds cleaned and the edging correct before laying mulch. After reviewing photos of their work on paver patios and walkways, this year we hired them to repair an 18 year old paver patio with two separate walkways and staircases. This was a lot of work. Most other contractors just wanted to tear it all out and start over. They agreed to tackle the job for us. It is apparent that sometimes it is just as difficult to repair something than to build it new. They demonstrated their skill level by providing us with an excellent job. Also, the owner and the crew are very trustworthy. Most importantly, Ismael’s attitude towards business is to satisfy his customer. I highly recommend him and his crew and would be very surprised if you do not have the same experience that we have had over the last 5 years."
"The services performed were great. The crew was professional, courteous and paid attention to their work. The quality of their work is exceptional. Reasonable in pricing, provides certificate of insurance info, as well as references. Owner is very customer service oriented and knowledgeable. We did have an issue with the border of paver not being the correct color. This issue was an error with the supply vendor. Cambridge listened to our concerns, and came out immediately. They had the crew back out to our house within a few days to correct the border paver issue. Cambridge also removed some trees and shrubs. They were able to find trees and shrubs we were interested in. We were very impressed with how nice the front yard is looking. Cannot wait for spring time to view the crepe myrtle!"
"They were very responsive and punctual by phone, text and in person for visits and installation. Finished product was very close to the planned design and it looks just beautiful. We will be working with them for future projects for our home. It was a real relief after previously having a bad experience with another local landscaping service the year before."
"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!"
"Jaguar Stone & Land absolutely exceeded my expectations. I almost thought it was to good to be true when I reached out and was told they could start the next day. I had spent a few weeks chasing down a contractor who had previously agreed to do the work. Their crew was extremely professional, always left the job site clean at the end of the day. They also did an amazing job grading the slope of the hill so that we can pull up our car easily. The pavers were laid with extreme care and additional measures like adding some cement around the sides were done to keep them from shifting over time. I will absolutely reach out when we are ready to start our backyard renovation."
"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!"
Many asphalt companies have experience with tar and chip paving, but not all. The process is unique enough—and not incredibly common enough—that you may have to look around for a tar and chip specialist. However, speaking with a driveway company is a great place to start, especially if they have experience with multiple materials.
The average cost of 1,500 square feet of asphalt ranges from about $10,500 to $22,500, depending on location, thickness, base material, and how accessible the job site is to crews and equipment. Keep in mind that your asphalt material cost may vary depending on its type, ranging from porous asphalt to heated blacktop. Standard asphalt costs $7 to $13 per square foot.
Asphalt and tarmac are not the same thing. Traditional tarmac, short for tarmacadam, uses tar as a binder to hold crushed stone together. Asphalt uses bitumen—a byproduct of crude oil—to bind aggregate. Though tarmac was once a go-to for roads, asphalt has become the modern standard. And these days, most surfaces referred to as “tarmac” are actually asphalt. So, while the names may overlap, the key distinction lies in the binder—tar for tarmac and bitumen for asphalt.
It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting.
Installing a walkway to your home can add value, as it can make your landscaping look more intentionally designed and boost your overall curb appeal. In addition, walkways can be installed with accessibility in mind, which can be helpful for those with mobility issues or who need a wheelchair.
