"Beat all the local San Angelo bids by a mile and brought material all the way down from Lubbock. Paved my driveway then chip set a 2 1/2 mile road for me. Fast service and good quality. Came back to repair one minor problem on the chip set road a month later. Nice work, good people."

"Kristopher Strube/ Owner/Operator is very easy to work with. He operates in a very professional manner. He is hard working and very well mannered. I was very pleased and pleasantly surprised with all the work that was accomplished in the short time he had his equipment operating on our ranch. Kristopher went above and beyond for us. He was very efficient and stayed within the budget that was originally established. I highly recommend Kristopher Strube and his employees at Strube Land Services for any brush, tree, clearing, road work, or any land improvement needs. Thanks again Strube Land Servicesâ ¦ You guys are awesome!!!"

"Attention to detail is the key to this crew. I was paying another company to mow my 1 acre lot bi weekly and it looked good when finished I thought. They came by and offered to cut it for a little cheaper so I agreed and when finished I stepped out and realized just how much better of a job they had done. Had a few things in the yard they moved and mowed under and out up by the house they rolled up my 2 water hoses, they even pulled my big trash cans up back by the house that were out for trash day .. and let me say the lawn look at least twice as good as the last person to cut it .. it's the quality of service and attention to detail and price and promptness that keep me paying them to get my yard done. You want your yard looking even better then you think it could then give this crew a call trust me"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

While paving a driveway is possible to do as a DIY project, we don’t recommend it. Hiring a driveway professional to pave it will ensure that your driveway looks neat and clean and lasts for years to come, and it will also prevent a weak driveway and, potentially, damage to your foundation. Paving a driveway requires heavy machinery, and while you can rent the equipment needed, operating it close to your garage slab or around your home’s foundation can crack it and lead to structural issues. 

While blacktop is a type of asphalt, the terms should not be used interchangeably, as not all asphalt qualifies as blacktop. The primary differences are in their composition, production process, and ideal applications. Blacktop contains more stone than other types of asphalt and is heated to a higher temperature during production—300°F or more—while hot-mix asphalt is heated to between 275°F and 300°F. The ratio of bitumen (a tar-like crude oil) is a key differentiator, though sources vary: some state blacktop has less bitumen, making it less durable, while others claim it has a higher ratio. Due to these differences, asphalt is generally more durable and better for high-traffic areas like highways and streets, while blacktop is more suitable for playgrounds and residential driveways. For a driveway project, it is best to consult a professional to determine the most appropriate material.

There’s no single best asphalt grade—it all comes down to where and how it’s used. Highways and heavy-traffic roads need something tough, like polymer-modified asphalt (PMA) or Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA). Local roads and parking lots rely on the Performance Graded (PG) system, chosen based on climate. A PG 64-28 mix, for example, handles a broad temperature range while simpler, more cost-effective mixes are typically enough for residential driveways. The best grade of asphalt depends on traffic, weather, and your budget, which is why a professional’s input is always a smart move before making a decision.

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.

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.
