"Ryan and his crew were amazing. The entire crew were polite, respectful and truly cared about us and the job. They payed attention to every detail no matter the size of the job. Before calling quality paving my husband and I called some of the larger companies that had been in business for twenty plus years and some never returned our call, one company even drove right by us as he turned the corner. We called him and never received a return call. Quality Paving is the company to call for your job. Ryan has the experience and equipment to complete any size job. Ryan is affordable, honest, caring respectful and truly cares about his customers and his employees. I wouldnâ t hesitate to refer Ryan @ Quality Paving LLC to any family or friends!!!! Thanks again Ryan & Crew."
"Eric and his crew did an excellent job and did everything I had read about paving with asphalt. I have asphalt done on other occasion and this was the best job I ever had done"
"We've used Eastern Way for our driveway sealing for over a decade and have always been very happy with their work. Communications is very clear, prices some of the lowest, and the workmanship is incredible. Highly recommend."
"Beausoleil Paving made what I thought would be a hard job, look very easy. Quality work, very reasonable pricing, and a finished driveway which gives me a feeling of pride every time I see it. Highly recommended!"
"The work was completed and looks great. Both men were quite knowledgeable and Andrew explained everything to me in detail that would need to be done to fix my cement porch. I highly recommend this company."
"Last year, part of our Asphalt Driveway was slowly sinking and sink holes were slowly appearing everywhere, Bill had a very good quote and we had him fix this. After he fixed the sinking section he let us know that next time we are ready he could expand and replace the whole driveway to prevent shuffling the parked cars. Come this year around end of April 2020 we had him quote to not only replace the whole driveway, but expand our driveway from a single lane driveway to a two car driveway. Bill arrived today with his crew early and on time at 7AM, and from beginning to end the process was very quick and efficient. They even gave us more driveway than expected, and that is very much appreciated. Bill's prices are very reasonable, his work is top notch, and he and his crew are very courteous and professional. Next time I need another paving project, I will definitely be in touch. And if ever I do know anyone who needs a paving project done too, I would definitely recommend Bill's Construction Inc!"
"Valter was very professional and prompt. Company response time is excellent. I had a concrete walkway repair that was done in a reasonable time and exactly as quoted. I would hire Valter again for other masonry work."
"Travis Worthley was a true joy to work with on our backyard patio project. His artistic vision turned the small, hilly & unusable footprint into the envy of the neighborhood. Travisâ attention to detail, dedication and professionalism was top notch. We would hire him again in a heartbeat. A true delight to work with and outstanding results!"
Wet cutting is usually the preferred method. It controls dust, which helps protect your lungs and makes for a cleaner working environment. Plus, the water cools the blade, preventing overheating and prolonging its life while providing smoother, more precise cuts. The downside is the mess—water and asphalt sludge can be messy to clean. Dry cutting, though convenient if water isn’t available, creates a lot of dust, which can be harmful. This also increases the risk of blade damage due to overheating. So, if you have the option, wet cutting is the better method for most asphalt jobs.
You should place a layer of thick landscaping fabric directly over the concrete slab and then a thin layer of leveling sand over that to protect the pavers from moisture. For border pavers, you should plan on locking them in place with polyurethane adhesive. This will prevent them from shifting under foot traffic.
Pavers will crack in a fire pit if they are made of the wrong materials. Be sure to use kiln-fired brick paver stones when building your backyard fire pit. You can also purchase a fire pit project kit, which will sometimes come with fire-safe pavers, to help you avoid the guessing game of buying pavers separately.
Outdoor kitchens get wet and are sometimes next to pools. To avoid accidents, go with a non-slip material like concrete, brick, or rubber. Avoid materials like ceramic and porcelain, as they are known to be quite slippery. Wood and composite flooring can be slippery if untreated, so make sure to stain or finish these materials.
Interlocking pavers offer a number of advantages over regular pavers. For instance, they’re more durable, more resistant to shifting, and easier to repair. There are also permeable options that allow for drainage. However, interlocking pavers are more often more expensive than regular pavers and are prone to growing weeds over time.
