"We hired Roads Paving to replace our aging, 1200 square foot asphalt driveway. Their bid was lower than a competitor. The driveway is tightly compacted, smooth, and looks great. The work only took around 4 hours from start to finish, including removing the existing asphalt and sub-base. Norm, his crew, and office staff were extremely courteous and helpful throughout the entire process."
"James and his team did a fantastic job resealing our driveway. We haven't had it done it about 4 years and there were several areas that needed extra attention due to cracking. He was professional and explain the process, so that we knew what to expect. The driveway looks fantastic."
"We’re extremely pleased with our new asphalt paved driveway. From start to finish, the communication was clear, the workmanship was top-quality, and everything was completed on schedule. The crew were professional, respectful, and left the site clean every day. The finished result looks great and feels solid. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them."
"This is the 2nd time we have had Center C Construction do work at our house and they did an amazing job. They matched our existing driveway perfectly for our driveway extension. They were also able to take my idea of a front walkway and turn it into a better reality. The walkway included having to re-design my steps and access into my house. The work is beautiful and if I ever need concrete work done again I 100% will return back to this company. We have had numerous neighbors stop by and compliment our brand new front yard layout."
"Latu Concrete Design is professional, trustworthy and clean work, did my driveway in the winter weather in just one day, love the work and my new driveway"
"Highly recommend NGL Pavingstone. Holly provided a detailed bid so no surprises with cost. She brought samples of materials to the house and kept in contact throughout the entire installation. Manual and his crew did a fantastic job, they showed up on time everyday, worked efficiently, and were easy to communicate with. They completed installation of approximately 90ft long (in three sections) x 4ft at highest point retaining wall, 10 ft pathway and steps in a week. They did a beautiful job dealing with elevation changes in the yard."
"A timely and efficiency job has been done. Near Me Roofing Company has good knowledge about roof, brought quite a few samples along with him and explained throughfully. After the explaination it is much easier to know what you need. The job took one day. The crew cleaned up pretty nicely and even cleaned my neighbor's driveway. Overall, it is a nice and smooth experience, and I will recommand in the future."
"They did an amazing job and were wonderful to work with. Great communicators, knowledgeable, transparent and honest about pricing. Our driveway and porch are high-quality and exactly what we wanted. I would hire them again in a second."
"It went great, in fact better than we were expecting! Sam came out to our home exactly when he said he would be there and gave us an estimate that was in line with other estimates we had received. He was very thorough in explaining all the steps they would take to ensure we got a great product and answered all the questions we had. The crew arrived the following Monday to start the work; the workers were personable, knew exactly what they were doing and asked questions to make sure the project was exactly as we requested. Very hard workers, finished that afternoon and left the site clean and neat. All the debris was removed and disposed of. It was a very unstressful experience and we would DEFINITELY hire Island Concrete again if we require further work in the future. We'd also recommend this company if you are looking for quality work at a fair price from a crew that knows their stuff!!! Can't say enough!"
"Jorge and his team provided top notch landscape and artificial turf installation. Even when the weather threw us a left hook with 2.days of snow followed by 3 days of hard rain they got the job done on budget with excellent craftsmanship."
Your city or county will have guidelines about the minimum and maximum width and length of private roads. The average private road is 12 feet wide, and length, of course, depends on your property. Requirements also depend on the amount of traffic and types of vehicles your road experiences. Check with local ordinances before planning a road on your property.
The cost to replace a driveway ranges from $8 to $15 per square foot, depending on factors that include material, size, and labor. If your driveway has deep cracks, potholes, or drainage issues (or if it’s simply past its prime), replacement might be the smarter investment over constant repairs. Resurfacing can be a cheaper alternative at $3 to $20 per square foot, but it won’t fix your driveway’s underlying problems.
It’s best to weigh the pros and cons of each material and decide on your priorities for your driveway. Gravel won’t be an appropriate choice if your driveway experiences heavy traffic. You’ll find that you need to level and top it off regularly, which could make the material a much more expensive option.
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.
Like all driveway materials, asphalt can crack in the wrong conditions and with age. Many things can cause asphalt to crack, including shifting soil or settling under the foundation. Other common causes are driving oversized vehicles on the asphalt, tree roots, and using rock salt during the snowy season. Proper installation and sealing the driveway every 10 years can help prevent cracks.
