Driveway Installation
First impressions matter. A smooth, professional driveway enhances your home's curb appeal.
Why Invest in a Professional Driveway
Your driveway isn't just a path to your garage — it's a significant part of your home's first impression. A poorly installed or maintained driveway can drag down your entire property's appearance and value.
Professional installation isn't just about the surface you see. What happens beneath — proper excavation, base preparation, and drainage — determines how well your driveway will hold up over years of use and Illinois weather.
We've installed hundreds of driveways throughout Cook County. We know what works in this climate, and we apply that knowledge to every project. Our driveways are built to handle freeze-thaw cycles, heavy vehicles, and years of family use.
Driveway Options
Choose the right surface for your home and budget.
Hot Mix Asphalt
The most popular choice. Black, smooth, and cost-effective. Typically lasts 15-20 years with proper maintenance. Perfect for standard residential use.
Brick Pavers
Timeless beauty and exceptional durability. Each brick can be replaced individually if damaged. Creates an upscale, custom look.
Concrete Pavers
Modern aesthetic with excellent structural integrity. Lower maintenance than brick. Available in many colors and finishes.
Stamped Concrete
Decorative patterns that mimic natural stone or brick. Economical way to achieve a high-end look. Sealed for protection and easy cleaning.
What's Included
Our comprehensive installation process.
Site Preparation
We remove the existing surface (if applicable) and excavate to the required depth. We inspect for any soil issues and address them before proceeding.
Sub-Base Installation
We install 4-8 inches of compacted crushed stone aggregate. This critical layer provides drainage and structural support for the surface above.
Edge Restraints
We install concrete or vinyl edge restraints around the perimeter. This prevents edge cracking and keeps the surface stable over time.
Surface Installation
For asphalt: we apply hot mix at the proper temperature and compact it with roller equipment. For pavers: we lay each paver with precision and fill joints with polymeric sand.
Final Details
We grade the transitions to existing surfaces, clean up the work area, and apply sealer (for asphalt) or finishing sealant (for pavers) as requested.
