How long does it take to build a driveway?

• <div><p>While the specific timeline for building a driveway can vary based on driveway length and local weather conditions, the average concrete driveway can require several days to lay down all of the different <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/driveway-terms-know.htm">parts of the driveway</a>. The curing process may require you to avoid using your driveway for a week following construction. Heavier vehicles should be kept off of a new concrete driveway for several weeks. Building a gravel driveway may take just one to two days in total.</p></div>

Q: What driveway materials last the longest?

• <div><p>Pavers last longer than both concrete and asphalt when well cared for. Since you can place individual pavers that suffer damage, you won't need to repave the entire driveway for an average of up to 50 years. However, the best material for you comes down to your local climate and budget.</p></div>

Q: How often do pavers need to be resealed?

• <div><p>Pavers should be resealed at least once every three to five years. Pavers that are exposed to excessive foot traffic, wear and tear, or volatile weather may benefit from being resealed more frequently. Consider resealing pavers whenever you notice stains or discoloration beginning to form.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a permit to build your own driveway?

• <div><p>The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/driveway-ideas.htm">driveway ideas</a>. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.</p></div>

Q: What is the typical lifespan of interlocking pavers?

• <div><p>If installed correctly, interlocking pavers can last up to 50 years. The lifetime of your paver patio greatly depends on one thing: its foundation. If you rush through this step or cheap out on materials, your patio&rsquo;s lifetime will be significantly cut short. Hire a pro if you&rsquo;re not 100% sure you can pull this off.</p></div>

Tim is a craftsman and does superb work! He is courteous, extremely hard working and ensures customer satisfaction. The finished results are outstanding. My stone wall had been rebuilt several times before Tim rebuilt it--I don't think it will have to be rebuilt for many, many years (if ever)...

I wasn't sure what I wanted to replace the shrubs so I asked Joe for suggestions. He suggested Blue Stone instead of concrete (my suggestion). Now I have a beautiful Blue Stone patio. He also covered my porch with trex. It is great! I intend to hire him for any other project I need done.
