Q: Why should I use asphalt for my outdoor basketball court?

• <div><p>Asphalt, which is stone mixed with tar, is the most common material for outdoor basketball courts because it&rsquo;s so sturdy and versatile. However, you don't have to use it: another option is polymeric rubber, which has shock pads that can prevent injury. This option is a little more expensive, ranging between <b>$16 and $25 per square foot</b>.</p><p>Materials used for indoor basketball courts, such as hardwoods, aren&rsquo;t really an option outdoors.</p></div>

Q: What is asphalt edging?

• <div><p>Asphalt edging secures the sides of your driveway to prevent crumbling and cracking over time. Most driveways have edges with a 45-degree grading. This helps transfer some of the stress from the asphalt to the ground underneath. If your driveway doesn&rsquo;t have proper edging, the pressure from your car may break down the edges over time.</p></div>

Q: Is asphalt milling better than gravel for driveways?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to weigh the pros and cons of each material and decide on your priorities for your driveway. Gravel won&rsquo;t be an appropriate choice if your driveway experiences heavy traffic. You&rsquo;ll find that you need to level and top it off regularly, which could make the material a much more expensive option.</p></div>

Q: How do I find a reputable paving company near me?

• <div><p>To ensure you hire a reliable and experienced paving company, you should start by finding companies in your area that have at least five to ten years of experience working in your neighborhood. Next, rule out companies with poor reviews online or a series of complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau. Since driveways affect your curb appeal, you should also ask each company for references and pictures of recent work to make sure the work the company does is professional and high quality. Finally, <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">check that the company is licensed</a> and insured.</p></div>

Q: What are the typical dimensions for a driveway apron?

• <div><p>The dimensions of a driveway apron vary based on local building codes, the width of your driveway, and the distance between the driveway and the road. On average, aprons range from 12 to 24 feet wide and 8 to 18 feet long. Typically, the end of the apron connected to the driveway matches its width&mdash;such as 10 to 12 feet for a single-car driveway&mdash;while the end at the street flares out to allow cars to turn in and out more easily. In some areas, you may not be responsible for the portion of the apron that extends beyond the sidewalk, but this depends on local laws.</p></div>
