"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"
"Very professional, on time (early!!), great customer service. Price competitive compared to other contractors for asphalt paving and cobblestone edging of our very large driveway (over 4300 sf). Eric was very personable and kept his agreements. Lee showed up with a crew of 6 workers and really got the job done quickly and professionally. The only sacrifice is, with more than one worker working on the same line of cobblestones, they had to meet in the middle, resulting in some stones needing to be cut smaller to fit in along the edging. Not a real problem unless you're a perfectionist with a bit of ocd tendencies (me? lol). Otherwise it looks & works great. Expensive, but money well spent, a real upgrade in curb appeal."
"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."
"Look no further if choosing a paving company. Bill went above and beyond for my property recently. After many free estimates, Bill’s personality, friendliness, overall character, and price made me choose him. He kept in touch with me every step of the way. I never had to wonder when he was coming to pave my driveway. He gave me a date and time, and was there when he said he would be, ready to go. His construction company does more than just asphalt and I would choose him in the future. Thank you Bill to you and your team. You guys are the best!"
"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."
"I like this company very much. They did exactly what they said they would do, and their work was neat and thorough. They were also very helpful in getting this work done late in the season when weather was an issue. I will continue to use DeJesus for all my driveway needs."
"Joe and his team did a fantastic job on our lawn. They were very professional and were a pleasure to work with! Joe was very responsive in answering any questions that I had. The customer service of this company and the quality of work is excellent. I would highly recommend them!"
Driveway pavers are often worth the cost. Paver types like cobblestone, brick, and concrete are highly durable, and permeable paver options can be tremendously eco-friendly. While you may pay more for a paver driveway, you’ll see great returns from the increased curb appeal and low maintenance compared to other types of driveways.
There’s no single best asphalt grade—it all comes down to where and how it’s used. Highways and heavy-traffic roads need something tough, like polymer-modified asphalt (PMA) or Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA). Local roads and parking lots rely on the Performance Graded (PG) system, chosen based on climate. A PG 64-28 mix, for example, handles a broad temperature range while simpler, more cost-effective mixes are typically enough for residential driveways. The best grade of asphalt depends on traffic, weather, and your budget, which is why a professional’s input is always a smart move before making a decision.
Yes, but it's best to kill off the grass with solarization and remove the dead plant matter before laying down the pavers. This helps limit the chance of your pavers shifting as the dead plant matter decomposes.
If pavers are uneven but not sunken, lift the affected bricks and check the bedding sand underneath. In many cases, simply smoothing out or adjusting the sand is enough to level them. Add or remove small amounts as needed, then press the pavers back into place and tap them with a mallet until they sit evenly with the surrounding surface.
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 driveway ideas. 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.
