They look beautiful. The team worked extremely hard and were very professional. They paid incredible attention to detail and the permeable walkway they built along the driveway and to the house is beautiful. I will hire them again for another project for sure."

"Billy and his team carried out a major renovation of our 100 year old home, including a total revamp of our second floor to have a masterbedroom, two bathrooms, a walkin closet and a new second floor deck. The project also included renovation of a room to create a library with built in shelves. To say we are happy with the result would be a major understatement. Billy solved a number of unexpected complications in this old structure and made numerous suggestions to improve the plans. He routinely found significat savings in acquisition of materials and other costs. (Note: in the photos below the ramp wss put in by me for our dog and was not part of the renovation.)"

"Our neighbor is using them to make a patio, soon our home filled with white dust and it coveted our lawn. The workers informed us they were not using any water or dust suppression methods as required by OSHA. We told them we were concerned about our exposure to silica, a cause of potentially fatal silicosis, and they said they “did not care.” We have been breathing it in for days and they have not been using water, air monitoring or any other steps to minimize hazards. The dust has spread across a dust loaded with children."

To calculate a preliminary budget, measure your intended driveway area in square feet and multiply by the per-square-foot rate of $18 to $50. Remember to include additional expenses for site preparation, base materials, and labor costs, which vary by location and property conditions.
For most residential projects, the total falls between $8,600 and $24,800. To receive the most accurate estimate, request detailed quotes from at least three reputable contractors and compare their scope of work.
Cobblestone significantly outlasts asphalt in terms of longevity. While asphalt requires replacement every 15 to 20 years, properly installed cobblestone driveways can remain functional for many decades with appropriate maintenance. The individual stone structure allows for simple replacement of damaged sections rather than complete resurfacing. Though the initial installation cost exceeds that of asphalt, the extended lifespan and reduced long-term maintenance requirements often provide better value over time.
A well-designed cobblestone driveway enhances property value through improved curb appeal and perceived quality. Prospective buyers often recognize the premium nature and durability of cobblestone installations. While the upfront investment is substantial, the distinctive appearance and exceptional longevity frequently justify the expense for value-conscious homeowners.
When coordinated with complementary landscaping and exterior elements, a cobblestone driveway can become a standout feature that distinguishes your property in a competitive real estate market.
Cobblestone performs exceptionally well in fluctuating temperatures due to its segmented installation method. Unlike solid concrete or asphalt surfaces that develop continuous cracks during freeze-thaw cycles, individual cobblestones can accommodate slight movement without structural failure.
This resilience depends on proper installation with adequate drainage and appropriate base materials. A professionally installed cobblestone driveway with the correct foundation layers will minimize frost heaving and maintain structural integrity through seasonal temperature variations.
