"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."
"I recently had the pleasure of meeting & working with Eric Jeffrey, owner of EPK Construction to have my driveway paved. Upon consultation, he explained the process, and his use of high quality, superior products. Mr. Jeffrey and his crew completed the job in his estimated time. He remained at the job site throughout the completion of the job, his crew members were respectful of my property and courteous. Mr. Jeffrey answered my many questions with knowledge and professionalism. I am very pleased with my choice of hiring EPK Construction Services. I interviewed 5 companies in total and EPK Construction Service, clearly was my first choice with Mr. Jeffrey's professionalism, knowledge, and a VERY FAIR PRICE ! I am a very pleased, satisfied customer."

"I used Bill’s Paving to replace my 42 year old asphalt driveway on June 19th. I called asking for an estimate and he came the next day. Personally I like to meet the people I’m hiring in person to get a feeling for them. Of the three contractors I called the others wanted to do estimate over the phone. They also took 3 days to respond. Bill’s price was competitive but the service was outstanding. Bill and his sons were prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable. And they have all sorts of machinery. And did all the dig safe requirements. They have greatly improved the curb appeal of my home. I would certainly call them if you’re looking for a paving company. My wife and I are thrilled we did."

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.
Permeable paving is a good option for a lot of reasons. It can help prevent flooding, keeps harmful chemicals from polluting our water, and can divert water away from your home’s foundation. Plus, it can add a rustic aesthetic to your outdoor area, might prevent pests who breed in water, and may even qualify for tax rebates.
The driveway apron is a technical term referring to where a private driveway meets the public street. If there is a sidewalk in front of the house, the driveway apron is typically on the opposite side of the public sidewalk from the driveway itself.
The layer of polymeric sand under the pavers plus the polymeric sand that gets swept into the joints between your pavers holds them in place in a few ways. For one, the gritty texture of the sand helps lock the pavers together. Polymeric sand also contains bonding agents that get activated by water. Polymeric sand will take between 24 and 48 hours to fully cure, so do not walk on your paver walkway before this time.
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.
