"I hired Dylan to put on a drive way into my place. He came out to my location and wanted to know what I wanted. He suggested a crushed limestone as base and topped with crushed asphalt. They completed the job and looked awesome. I had him complete a circle drive of same material. Very pleased with my new road. Since the road, they have built me a leveled pad for patio, one for building and pad for my new double-wide."
"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!!!"
"I am a wheelchair bound veteran. I have been setting up my back yard as a haven for me and my pups. Aubrey came to make an estimate, and showed me that i had done things a bit out of sequence. I should have removed the 2 trees before installing the shed. He talked about taking out the trees and removing the debris, and quoted 1500, to which I said yes. It was a bit pricier than I had hoped. Aubrey came, removed the trees as described and removed the debris. He noticed in this that my wheelchair was getting stuck in the doorway, and installed a threshold ramp without extra charge. I was overjoyed and would highly recommend McLean tree service. Very kind, helpful, observant and above and beyond professional."
Professionals restore the surface to a fresh, attractive finish by applying a new, even sealant layer.
You can pour concrete over asphalt if it’s in good condition, thick, stable, and well-compacted. Concrete is more durable than asphalt and can extend the lifetime of your driveway without having to pay frequent asphalt driveway repair costs or replace it completely.
But this is best reserved as a temporary solution based on budget restraints, as asphalt requires more frequent repairs and assessments than concrete. Once that concrete top is poured, it’ll be harder to accurately understand what’s happening beneath that layer, which could lead to more issues.
Yes, using recycled asphalt millings is an eco-friendly alternative compared to concrete. Millings are reclaimed pieces of gravel that are recycled into aggregate that can be used on driveways, patios, walkways, basketball courts, tennis courts, and more.
The most obvious disadvantage of permeable paving is that the cost is typically higher compared to non-permeable concrete, pavers, or asphalt methods. Also, the porous material can get clogged with dirt and debris, requiring cleaning and power washing more frequently than standard paving materials and methods. Although permeable paving is not ideal for highways, airports, and other surfaces supporting heavy traffic and machinery, it is suitable for regular residential driveways.
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.
