"The estimate process was good and they had good communication and I really liked the amount of time he took talking with me. The estimate itself could have been more detailed as it was just the price written on a business card."

"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!"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

Driveways should be sloped with a minimum 2% slope—anything lower will cause precipitation and runoff to collect. A 2% slope is the equivalent of a 2-foot rise over 100 feet. One quick way to check the integrity of your driveway’s slope: no more than four inches of water should collect on the surface longer than 15 minutes after rain.

Whether you should resurface or replace your asphalt driveway heavily depends on its condition. If the foundation is solid and the damage is minor, resurfacing is your best bet because it’s more affordable and faster than replacing the driveway. But if your driveway has foundational problems and/or severe damage, like large, deep cracks and potholes, then it makes more sense to replace it. 

Asphalt, which is stone mixed with tar, is the most common material for outdoor basketball courts because it’s so sturdy and versatile. However, you don't have to use it: another option is polymeric rubber, which has shock pads that can prevent injury. This option is a little more expensive, ranging between $16 and $25 per square foot.

Materials used for indoor basketball courts, such as hardwoods, aren’t really an option outdoors.

You’ll first need to install a base underneath your pavers for extra stability and drainage. Otherwise, the pavers can sink into the ground, and you’ll have to reinstall them. Use a base gravel layer of 4 to 6 inches for walkways and 10 to 12 inches for driveways. Compact your gravel layer every 2 to 4 inches so it’s nice and solid. After you install your gravel base, apply a 1-inch layer of sand on top.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.
