"Jason was so prompt in responding to my inquiry about fixing our gravel driveway. He communicated everything very well and was able to schedule the work quickly. Highly recommend!"
"Queried on a Thursday, onsite visit on a Friday, and new driveway installed on Monday! Timing was perfect. Quote was within my budgeted expectations. It was a joy watching an observing the work of leveling out and crowning where appropriate. Cannot overstate how much of a perfectionist and expert that Joe was.... never seen the like in my many years of seeing folks work a front loader/skidder. First rain proved how good his eyeballs were.... no water pooling, nice even flow of run off, flush with garage entryway, and stamped concrete. Highly recommend JS Paving the work looks so professional and well done. Several of my neighbors have stopped to comment on just how nice and well the new drive looks. Awesome job, price was reasonable, and exceeded my expectations."

"NextGen Paving and Excavation LLC did an amazing job repairing and sealing my asphalt driveway. Jacob is a hard worker and very particular with his work, and it shows in the finished project. I had him remove and replace a section of damaged asphalt and he sealed my entire driveway. I am very happy with his results."
"Winston installed a beautiful wrought iron railing extending up two steps and ending on the concrete landing of our front porch. He came when he said he would come and completed the work as promised efficiently and meticulously. I will use him again if I need welding done."
"Larry and his crew repaired and replaced bricks on my 55 year old stairs and walkway carefully, competently and with great precision. He then scrubbed the bricks with a bleach solution to remove years of mold and fungus and made the bricks look almost new again. I'm going to have him back to repair and install a flagstone walk way to my patio. He's very knowledgeable about masonry and would recommend him to work for you."
"I called them very late in the process. Although they got back to me by late afternoon, I'd decided to use a mason and use flag stone. However, I was very impressed with their rep, their pricing and the quality of work obvious in the photos they sent. seems like a fine company and thousands of dollars less than the other estimate for stamped concrete"
Asphalt driveways are affordable and able to withstand sub-zero temperatures. The asphalt surface makes it easy to plow snow, and it has excellent traction for slippery winter days. Another benefit: it absorbs heat from the sun and can then help to melt snow and ice more quickly than other surfaces.
Asphalt edging secures the sides of your driveway to prevent crumbling and cracking over time. Most driveways have edges with a 45-degree grading. This helps transfer some of the stress from the asphalt to the ground underneath. If your driveway doesn’t have proper edging, the pressure from your car may break down the edges over time.
While the specific timeline for building a driveway can vary based on driveway length and local weather conditions, the average concrete driveway can require several days to lay down all of the different parts of the driveway. The curing process may require you to avoid using your driveway for a week following construction. Heavier vehicles should be kept off of a new concrete driveway for several weeks. Building a gravel driveway may take just one to two days in total.
With proper maintenance, asphalt milling driveways can last 30 years or more. Over time, you’ll need to regularly sealcoat your driveway. You should also have your driveway inspected every few years and make any repairs as soon as they are necessary; this will prolong the lifespan of your driveway.
The three most common types of asphalt are hot asphalt, MC cold mix, and UPM asphalt.
Hot asphalt is used most often for paving and patching roadways while it’s hot and workable. MC cold mix asphalt cures more slowly than hot asphalt, but it can be used for temporary patches and repairs in low-traffic areas. UPM is also used cold, but it can be used as a longer-term fix, usable in almost any conditions at almost any temperature.
