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 am a very pleased, satisfied customer."

"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 and his crew were prompt, courteous, respectful, and hard-working. Communication was great, and Valter consulted me at every step. His crew flawlessly re-pointed our foundation in several spots, built a new border around our front garden, and laid in a paved walkway. The results were stunning. Valter was direct, honest, and fair in his estimate and pricing. We will definitely work with him again!"
"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."

Paving is a part of hardscaping, so all paving is hardscaping, but not all hardscaping is paving. Paving involves laying down concrete or asphalt, while hardscaping can also include the use of paving stones, bricks, gravel, wood, and more. Hardscape features that involve paving are considered permanent and will increase your property taxes, while some other hardscaping features—like those involving bricks, gravel, and paving stones—will not affect property taxes. Paving also typically requires a permit, while hardscaping features considered temporary will not.
It is possible to DIY complete hardscaping projects, but in most cases, hiring a professional is best to get the job done correctly. Hardscaping—including installing patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, and water features—is challenging and time-consuming, so the money you spend on a professional is typically worth it. Not only will the quality be better, but you could avoid problems that come along with a lack of hardscaping experience, like drainage issues that can lead to costly foundation damage and leaks in your home.
Box fill refers to the maximum number of conductors that can be contained within a wiring enclosure box, as well as the total volume of the components. Determining the allowable number of conductors in a box requires adding up the number of conductors, clamps, support fittings, devices and equipment, and equipment grounding conductors to make sure you’re within the allowable volume.
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.
