"My deck was in bad need of repair due to a lot of rotting wood. The guys from York River outdoors, really went above and beyond with their work, and even repaired portions that were not previously known to be rotted. I highly recommend their services!"

"Our asphalt driveway is 25 years old. I initially called Richard over two years ago to discuss what could be done to fix the buckling damage caused by tree roots. Richard said he could overlay the existing asphalt, but the problems would reappear in a few years as the trees beside the driveway continued to grow. We decided not to pursue the overlay at that time and instead took down the oak and hickory trees that were causing the problems. I appreciated Richard's honesty and his suggestions for how the driveway might be reshaped absent the trees. I called Richard back about a month ago to discuss the driveway again. He responded right away. I expected him to recommend tearing up all of the asphalt and repaving the whole thing. But he explained why that was not necessary and in fact not the best idea. He was very patient as we tried to understand the scope of the project. Richard made two suggestion regarding reshaping the driveway. We took one suggestion but not the other. In hindsight, we should have taken both suggestions. The shape of the driveway would be even better! As promised Richard was onsite for the entire project. His crew consisted of four other guys who, like Richard, are polite and professional and accomplished at their jobs. The group worked very well together. We did have some clean up work after the job. There was asphalt on the public road, and we had to scrape it up and dispose of it. There was also a small amount of trash left behind by the crew, but I think they were working so hard they didn't have time to do anything with their drink bottles. I called two other contractors before I called Richard back for this job. One did not return my call. The other contractor just asked what I thought needed to be done as opposed to making a recommendation. He showed no creativity in terms of reshaping the driveway to improve its appearance and design. I definitely think Richard's Paving was right for our job!"

"Provider was suppose to return and finish laying sand on the patio. Since job was very close to complete, I paid him rather than wait. I never heard from him again. The sand has since washed out in spots and another provider is correcting the situation with polymeric sand. Other than the sand issue, the patio looks good in the way it is laid out. Provider was punctual, and the project went very fast considering it was in the middle of the winter.

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

Asphalt dries and cures best between 50 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. This range allows moisture to evaporate quickly without causing the asphalt to cool too fast, which can negatively affect the drying process. However, keep in mind that other weather conditions can also affect curing and drying times, such as precipitation and humidity.

It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting. 

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.

A driveway approach is the part of a driveway where the public road meets the private driveway. This section contains several key elements, including the driveway apron, the curb cut, and the end slope. Depending on the slope of the driveway, this area may also contain the trench drain.

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.
