The driveway to your home is one of the key elements that makes a home interesting and attractive. From dirt tracks with wagon ruts to elegant stone designs, Americans have always chosen their driveway materials to balance appearance and cost. Fortunately these days, there is an enormous range of materials to choose from which ensures that we can accommodate every driveway design preference and almost every budget.
These are some of the considerations when selecting the right material for your used in driveway construction:
Asphalt - cost effective, easy to repair, but with a shorter life than other materials. Asphalt is also a petroleum product so has some environmental impact.
Concrete - cost effective, low maintenance and hardy in hot and cold climates like ours. Concrete does have a higher environmental impact than some other materials. Concrete is generally the material that we recommend in Rockland County.
Brick - huge range of options in terms of color, material and costs, and a very long lifespan. Also, we use locally sourced bricks to ensure low environmental impact.
Stamped concrete - very cost effective and an almost unlimited selection of appearances and styles. Stamped concrete is well suited to almost any climate and has the same environmental impact as concrete.
Gravel - cost effective but the lifespan of gravel driveways and walkways will depend on the preparation of the base. Not suitable for steep driveways since loose gravel will always move down and out onto the roadway.
Permeable pavers - a new technology that allows water and snow melt to flow through to the ground below. Less cost effective than traditional materials, but more environmentally friendly than concrete.
