What is the most economical driveway material?

• <div><p>Gravel driveways are the most economical driveway material, followed pretty closely by asphalt and concrete. At about <b>$1 to $3 per square foot, </b>gravel is about a third of the cost of either of the more common alternatives. But, not everyone likes the look and feel of the material and may opt to pay more for something that looks better.</p></div>

Is stamped concrete more budget-friendly than pavers?

• <div><p>Yes, in most cases, stamped concrete, which costs an average of <b>$12 per square foot</b>, tends to be <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-choose-pavers-over-stamped-concrete.htm">more affordable than laying pavers</a>. This is especially true if you’re comparing stamped concrete to brick pavers, which cost between <b>$8 to $50 per square foot</b>. With the right design choices, you can closely mimic the look of brick using stamped concrete. </p></div>

How do you adhere pavers to concrete?

• <div><p>Adhere pavers to concrete with either mortar or a concrete-specific adhesive. In most cases, you will also need to lay a permeable sand layer below the pavers to encourage proper stability and drainage in your transformed patio, porch, or driveway. To <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/10-steps-install-pavers-amidst-your-landscape.htm">lay pavers like a pro</a>, always make sure you take the proper preparatory steps before adhering them directly to the concrete.</p></div>

Q: Can you pave over an existing driveway?

• <div><p>Yes, it is possible to pave over an existing driveway depending on the existing condition and type of material you plan to use. Factors to consider include current driveway condition, compatibility of the new material, thickness, surface prep, and driveway height.</p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to lay concrete or pavers?

• <div><p>While it may be less expensive initially to lay <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pavers-vs-concrete-patio.htm">concrete vs. pavers</a>, the long-term expenses that come with repairing concrete may prove to be less cost-friendly than simply replacing a few damaged pavers. On top of that, stamped concrete may only last for 25 years compared to pavers, which can last over 50 years.</p></div>

Donnell reinforced our 30 plus year old deck and brought it up to today's code by putting in cement pilings and replacing the support columns. He also added sturdier support beams. In addition he put in a paver patio to replace the gravelled area at the base of the steps.

Will use again. Professional and great job! I have brick pavers beside my driveway and they were very careful not to get any sealer on them. Highly recommend this company.

I do not think they cleaned the pavers proper to start. I have had pavers done many times in the past with other companies but this was the worse. I have other operators look at it and they said is was verry poor. I paid the most that I have ever and got the worse job.
