Driveway Paving
Driveways need to withstand heavy weight and daily use, so need to be one of the strongest parts of your home. It doesn’t matter if you own a hybrid, a 4x4 truck, or an RV, we make our driveways to weather any load. We offer asphalt, concrete, and several decorative concrete methods, depending on your space, budget, and needs. We’ll take care of preparing your surface, the application, and the coating that’s vital to keeping your driveway looking great.

What’s the difference between concrete and asphalt?
Concrete and asphalt are the two most popular materials for driveway and parking lot paving. We will come and assess your situation and give you our expert advice on which would be best for you. Here are some factors to consider when deciding:

Longevity - Generally, concrete lasts longer than asphalt. With proper care, concrete driveways typically last 30-40 years, and asphalt driveways last 15-20. 

Durability - Concrete is stronger than asphalt, which means it can take heavier loads. If you have an RV or trailer you want to park in your driveway, we recommend going with concrete.

Flexibility - Asphalt is a more pliable material, so it fares better in cold weather and is less susceptible to cracking. When asphalt does crack, it’s easier to fill in than concrete cracks.

Maintenance - Concrete driveways need a coating every few years, but asphalt needs a coat at least annually.

Installation time - Once installed, you can drive on your asphalt driveway in just one day. Concrete takes a longer time to cure, so you’ll need to put aside more time for its installation.

Price - Asphalt is the cheaper option, but beware as its cost may fluctuate based on oil prices.

Styles - Compared to asphalt which only comes in one colour and style, concrete is incredibly modifiable. You can choose the colour and pattern, and it can be laid with a straight clean edge.

Home value - When prospective buyers come looking, concrete is generally held in higher regard. Especially if it’s well maintained, a concrete driveway can definitely increase your home value.

Decorative Concrete

Decorative concrete is quickly becoming a popular option for anywhere you would use concrete. It gives driveways a splashy look, makes patios more eye-catching, and provides instant curb appeal for your entryway. It’s the most inexpensive way to get the unique look that matches your lifestyle. Whether your style is modern, country, or vintage, there’s a method that’s perfect for you.

Stamped concrete - this style can imitate all kinds of patterns that may otherwise be unavailable to you, such as brick, vintage tile, ceramic, cool stone, and lots more. It can bring the beauty of alternative materials with the added bonus of durability and low maintenance that concrete offers. First, the concrete is dyed to any colour you want, and then it’s poured onto the prepared surface. We then select a mold with your desired pattern and stamp it onto the drying concrete. Once it’s cured, a coating is administered to set it and it’s complete.

Exposed aggregate concrete - all concrete is made with aggregates, and this type of concrete just reveals the beautiful aggregates that are already there. Exposed aggregate concrete offers unique looks just by choosing the type of aggregate you want your cement to be mixed with. You can choose from smooth pebbles, fine gravel, and even colourful glass, sea shells, and other synthetic materials. Once your aggregate is selected and mixed and the surface is prepared similarly to other concrete applications, the concrete is poured. At the perfect timing, the material is sprayed down to wash away excess concrete and expose the desired degree of aggregate. It’s great for projects on a budget, and still brings a colourful and pleasant touch.

Dyed/acid stained concrete - the great thing about concrete is that it can be coloured and manipulated. Dyes can be added to get the colour you want, and acid staining is perfect for a bit of extra visual texture. Acid stained concrete unlike dyed concrete has “splotches” of inconsistent colour and is unique every time. This method can imitate the look of painted tiles, and is highly desired in any kind of home

Concrete Stairs

Our number one concern for your concrete stairs is safety. Our experts build exceptional stairs that are economical, up-to-code, and beautiful. They can be made of regular undyed concrete for a contemporary look, stamped concrete to imitate your favourite building material, or exposed aggregate concrete to match other elements of your home. We keep in mind the amount of foot traffic you’ll be getting, grading conditions, and your area size to ensure you get the ideal stairway for your space. For example, if you have a large area to fill up, we recommend sweeping radius stairways which bring a grand elegance to your front door, boosting its curb appeal. If you have an unevenly graded backyard, we can strategically place landings to even out each step and break up the walk. With many factors to keep in mind, our experts will guide you to the best option for you.

Concrete Sidewalks

When you think of heavy-load bearing concrete, you may first think of your driveway, but your sidewalk and pathways also bear a lot of foot traffic. There are different finishes that each serve different purposes, and it’s important to bear in mind the people who will be using them. 

Brushed concrete - the most common finish, popular for its naturally non-slip properties and its economic value. In theory it sounds simple to drag a stiff broom over poured concrete, but timing is absolutely critical. Too early and the concrete will be too soft, and too late and the texture won’t show up.

Exposed aggregate concrete - another non-slip option, due to its exposed gravelly texture. You may want a lower relief exposed aggregate for your sidewalk for comfortable walking, especially if there’s a chance your family will want to walk on it barefoot.

Stamped concrete - the most eye-catching choice, which you can match to your existing features such as your driveway or patio. You can even get a more textured pattern to ensure high traction, even with a high-gloss coating!

Cracks should be repaired as quickly as possible because not only are they not pretty to look at, they can cause accidents. Even if a crack is small and almost imperceptible visually, your toe can certainly find it. A well built sidewalk will require very little maintenance and stay looking great for years, so let us handle your installation and maintenance!

Architectural Concrete

​Concrete has recently been used more in a manner of enhancing the look of buildings and structures. When looking at a home with a modern designed, you tend to see sharp cuts and clean edges in the concrete. The concrete that is used for theses types of applications is called architectural concrete. This type of concrete can be formed into different types of colours, shapes, and textures but without forgoing any of the strength of the concrete itself. It is most commonly seen in the creation of buildings and homes with emphasis on design.
