Our homeowner insurance company told us that we had to fix the driveway by the end of the month or else our policy would be cancelled! They were concerned with the cracks and crumbling nature of the old concrete driveway. I guess they were worried that someone might trip - and sue. We got lots of bids - some ranging close to $9,000. Mike Stanley rearranged his schedule in order to fit us in - during the first week this spring when it was warm enough to lay asphalt. The quality of the work was excellent. There were no asphalt stains on the concrete apron, for example. All of the edging was neatly done. There was no clean up work on our part that was required. Mike frequently called us during the week to inform us of possible schedule changes due to weather.

They framed and installed a new 4" thick concrete walkway and landing. The walkway and landing were poured at 3,500 psi mix with optimal strength rating achieved in 28 days. The new flagstone walkway, landing and porch received an acid wash and power wash 4-5 days after flagstone work was finished. A #4 rebar was installed into existing porch concrete slab to prevent new step from separating from porch slab. The 2 new steps installed measure 5" high. They notified Miss Utility. The work was supervised and completed in a timely and professional manner. Job site was cleaned up daily and all debris and excess materials were removed on job completion. No heavy vehicles or equipment were stationed on driveway as per my request. Their price and quality of the workmanship exceeded my expectations as well as the coloration of the flagstone installed. Was pleased with the workmen who not only were friendly but very accomplished with the scope of the work and answered all my questions.

Overall the driveway has a good appearance except for an area that is a darker color. Also, I have found random chunks of ceramic tile in the shrubbery beds adjacent to the driveway, which makes me wonder what was in the gravel base. Also, bits of very tough wire have appeared poking out of the asphalt and can only be trimmed back flush to the surface using heavy duty wire cutters. At the end of the job, I had to ask the crew to remove a pile of dirt they had pushed into the ivy at the bottom of the driveway. They did remove most of the dirt but later I found large chunks of asphalt in that spot. Since this is the first asphalt driveway I have had installed so I don't know if the tile and the wire are unusual or not. Since I have not had the time to call and ask, I gave them the benefit of the doubt and rated them A on quality.

The driveway was in good condition when they did it the first time, but they could offer no reason why the coating did not hold up. Thjey came back willingly and the sealing was better thie second time, but the driveway still doesn't look very good.

"I sure was hoping to post a better review here for Blue Ridge Landscaping, however that is not the case based on the events that have unfolded. My handicapped mother and I split the cost of privacy trees for our new house. Over $6500 in total and all we have asked Steve to come back and fix the ones that have blown over. We paid an extra amount for him to come out and put stakes in the ground after they were initially installed, but they didn't seem to hold up. When he left that day he said "If you or your mom need anything, please call me". He seemed sincere, so Ididn't worry. Well we since have called and texted many times as the trees are sideways as you can see from the pictures. The only response I got was "Ok" one time and never heard from him or BRLS again. We got this referral from a local person and thought based on the google reviews, we should be good to go."

"Next Level did a sprinkler system installation for me. Julian, the point person and (I think) owner for Next Level, communicated well throughout the process. He took his time to explain the technology, his reasoning for the proposal, the timeline, and the options and tradeoffs. His quote was the most competitive among the 4 I received, and he took care of everything. We had a couple of hiccups due to weather, but he otherwise delivered on the schedule he promised the day he provided the quote.

FAQs for gravel driveway repair projects in Reston, VA
The average cost of a gravel driveway is about $1.25 to $2 per square foot, including the cost of materials, equipment, and professional installation. For example, a 16-by-30-foot driveway costs about $1,500. Cost factors include the type of gravel, how thick the gravel is installed, the condition of the landscape, and labor costs. Overall costs will vary depending on where you live and how accessible the job site is.
Concrete can crack from general wear, improper installation, or in response to uneven support from the soil underneath. Small, thin cracks on the surface of aging concrete are usually a result of normal wear and tear, while cracks on new concrete more likely indicate a problem with installation. Larger cracks or uneven steps can signify a much more severe issue. A concrete contractor should be able to diagnose the cause and repair concrete cracks for you.
The cost to install a concrete driveway is $4 to $15per square foot on average. Your price heavily depends on your desired concrete finish and driveway size.
For a driveway that is 200 square feet, you can expect to pay an average cost of $1,900. For a driveway at double that size (400 square feet), the average price is closer to $3,800. Plain concrete is significantly more cost-effective, averaging $7 per square foot, whereas stained concrete averages around $19 per square foot.
The cost of resurfacing concrete is $6 per square foot on average, though that cost can range from $3 to $9per square foot.
For a driveway that is 200 square feet, you can expect to pay $600 to $1,800, and for a driveway that is 500 square feet, that cost averages $1,500 to $4,500. Resurfacing your driveway will give you the look and feel of a new surface without the hefty cost.
A gravel driveway should be at least 4 to 6 inches deep, depending on the soil it’s installed on. Softer soil that doesn’t drain well should have a deeper gravel driveway. Deeper gravel will mean you spend more on materials and labor, but you’ll get a more stable driveway and avoid damage that needs to be filled or graded flat again.
