"Dakota and his team were professional, polite, did a great job in prepping and coating the driveway. I was really impressed and exceeded my expectations. Would hire again. Thank you team!"
"We also hired Jose Landscaping for roofing as well as some landscaping. Not all at once but throughout time after the purchase of my home. They did great quality landscaping work. I will continue to use Jose Landscaping to improve my house so we can make it a HOME."
"My driveway has a flat section at the top and a steep narrow section going to the road. The flat part came out very well and is a big improvement. Aaron Williams was upfront about the possibility that the steep section would be difficult to work with. The chip seal did not take very well and the loose gravel is a problem. We ended up sweeping the loose gravel to the side in order not to slip when driving. It looks much better than it did but this was not the result we had hoped for. My driveway is 40 years old which is part of the problem."
"I had some very specific requirements for my 12'x23'x11' awning. I also had to postpone the project 2 months. But, Lucio and crew built the awning to my requirements exactly. As soon as material was available, they were out on the job and finished in a day. It even rained a little on them, but they got it done. Will be giving them a call when I'm ready to do the next awning."
"After four interviews, Hill Country Road Paving was the only one that included fixing some weak spots on my asphalt driveways. (14,500 sq ft in total). They did a 2 course chip seal in 6 hours with the edge asphalt remediation. Their crew was respectful to the extent that my neighbor told me she was impressed by their assurance that they wouldn't block her driveway during the effort. Not only did they do great work expeditiously but, at a cost less than the other three contractors. I bonus them $100 per worker on top of their charge. I would definitely use them again."
Several materials are suitable for steep driveways. Gravel and crushed stone are affordable options that provide good traction. Permeable pavers—such as plastic, rubber, or concrete—filled with gravel or crushed stones are also excellent, as they allow water to drain without causing erosion and perform well in ice and snow. Another option is resin, which can be coated with an anti-slip finish and helps prevent puddles. For added stability, you can install a retaining wall to prevent pavers and gravel from shifting over time.
When comparing installation costs, asphalt is often less expensive upfront than concrete. Asphalt prices typically range from $7 to $15 per square foot, while concrete can range from $3 to $18 per square foot. However, long-term costs should also be considered. Concrete driveways generally last longer (up to twice as long) and require less maintenance, which can make them more affordable over their lifespan. While asphalt has a lower installation cost and is easier to repair, it requires more frequent maintenance, such as sealing, which can add up over time. Therefore, while concrete is more expensive initially, its durability may offset the cost in the long run.
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, check that the company is licensed and insured.
It’s best to weigh the pros and cons of each material and decide on your priorities for your driveway. Gravel won’t be an appropriate choice if your driveway experiences heavy traffic. You’ll find that you need to level and top it off regularly, which could make the material a much more expensive option.
Instead of a set number of types, asphalt comes in variations designed for different needs. Some are categorized by temperature—hot mix, warm mix, and cold mix. Others are sorted by composition, like dense-graded, gap-graded (such as Stone Matrix Asphalt), porous, and mastic asphalt. There are also modified versions with added compounds like polymers, rubber, or emulsions. Instead of focusing on a number, it may be more useful to understand how contractors customize asphalt for durability, climate, and traffic conditions.
