"Scott Pinkerton, owner of Green Landscaping, had done some work in the neighborhood of Hulon Greene in West Columbia and came highly recommended by a neighbor down the street. This is our second home. We live in Ohio. Scott submitted a design for the landscape work we were envisioning that was thorough, timely and well designed. We worked with him over the phone throughout the project. From the beginning to the end of the landscape work he was accessible and provided cell phone pictures throughout so that we felt at the end of each day we could see what was happening. The project was finished in about ten days. We witnessed the day-to-day progress through Scott's photographs and his cell phone communication. We are totally satisfied with the project and could not have been happier with the outcome. We highly recommend Scott Pinkerton's company, Green Landscaping Maintenance & Design, to anyone looking for high quality landscaping work."

"Derek and crew built a 125 foot by 5 foot retaining wall on the large slope in my back yard. It turned out incredible!! They used 15 pallets of block, tons of stone, truckloads of dirt and had the proper equipment to dig, haul, level, grade, etc. Derek has a great eye for visualization, ideas, and creativity. In addition to the retaining wall, Capital City Patios resolved my drainage problems with French drains in the front of the house and underground drainage from the downspouts. Drainage was also provided behind the retaining wall. Derek personally built block steps from the driveway down to the back yard. The yard was leveled, irrigation was added to the existing system, sod was laid and dozens of bushes and trees planted. The final step was adding outdoor lighting. It was a large project with a lot of hand labor and i could not be happier with the transformation."
"I hired Peace Construction to pour the foundation for my new driveway. The guys with Peace Construction were highly dependable, provided quality work and the price was unbeatable. The owner was very knowledgeable and kept me informed every step of the way. My neighbor admired the work and inquired about this company’s contact information. I would definitely hire them again!"
Asphalt is made of aggregate materials (sand, rocks, and gravel) and bitumen, a viscous, petroleum-based, waterproof substance. These materials are mixed together at extremely high temperatures to form asphalt.
Cobblestone is just one of many driveway materials. Other, more economical, albeit less elaborate options include concrete, asphalt, and gravel.
If you want a material that most closely resembles cobblestone, your best option is bricks or pavers. Both cost anywhere from $10 to $50 per square foot and can be laid in all kinds of patterns. Depending on the type of paver you choose, you can also get a good bang for your buck by investing in durable natural stone.
Driveway paving costs around $4,500 on average, but depending on many factors, you could pay anywhere from $2,500 to $6,600 or more. The size of your driveway will usually be the most significant factor, with more square footage increasing your costs. You can expect to pay between $2 and $15 per square foot for paving services.
Some other factors that play a role include the following:
Quality of the materials
Contractor’s experience and expertise
Site preparation and grading, if necessary
Layout of your driveway
An ideal driveway gradient is between 2% and 5%. Anything lower than 1% or higher than 15% can cause problems for your car or property. A driveway with less than a 1% slope increases your likelihood of flooding and water damage, while a driveway with a 15% grade or higher can be too steep for safe traveling.
This creates a risk for your driveway to fail after asphalt curing because it doesn't have a lasting bond with the surface. In order to get asphalt to perform as intended, it's necessary to prepare the dirt surface correctly first. The loose soil base under the new driveway must be compacted until it is stable enough to support the weight of the asphalt.
