David and his crew did a truly expert job at my place. I had cracks in a brick flower planter wall as well as cracks in my front porch concrete landing. All is perfect now and all cleaned up afterword. They had the exact same bricks available to use from their stockpile. I highly recommend David and Brick Experts. You will be pleased with their work .

I needed some brick repair done at my home. It was a scary situation for me since it was my first time dealing with it but David, Enrique and their team made it so smooth. David was honest and informed me step by step what was needed. Enrique and his great team then got to work, making sure everything came out just as expected. I highly recommend them!

Jon was extremely responsive to my inquiry to have some brick work and other masonry needs repaired at my house. His crew was outstanding and got the job done very quickly. They also cleaned up extremely well at the end of the project. I would definitely recommend Brick Experts for any mason work needs.

Jacob and his team at Brick Experts did a fantastic job! Not only did they do excellent brick work on our chimney, but they did an excellent job of project management. Jacob kept us informed of the entire process all along. They showed up when they said they would, were neat, polite, and tireless workers. When there was the threat of rain, they completely wrapped the work in process and ensured everything would remain dry. Brick Experts were only slightly more expensive than others, but the expertise and ease of mind they provided, made them well worth it and definitely the right choice. I highly recommend them.

Why Install A New Driveway?

A new driveway upgrades your entrance in ways you’ll notice every day. It’s what will welcome you home every day and creates that very important first impression for visitors and buyers.

Cracked, stained, or outdated driveways are a clear sign of neglect. And homes immediately look newer, cleaner, and more appealing after a driveway replacement.

Real estate pros will tell you: attractive, newly installed driveways command higher selling prices and attract more buyer interest.

Best Materials For Driveway Installation

1.Asphalt Driveways: Asphalt makes a smooth, dark driveway that’s budget-friendly and can last 15-20 years. It’s not suitable in most suburban environments due to HOA restrictions.

2. Concrete Driveways: Concrete is a traditional choice for DFW driveways, lasting 25-50 years with proper installation. Concrete driveways provide decades of service with minimal maintenance.

3. Brick Driveways: Brick is an elegant, classic look that can last 25+ years. Its interlocking pattern allows for some flexibility with soil movement and design.

 

4. Stone Driveways: Natural stone possess a unique beauty and durability, with a lifespan of 50+ years. It’s higher in cost, but provides exceptional curb appeal value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Homeowners in Dallas often have questions about driveway installation before starting their projects. Here are answers to some common questions to help you make educated choices.

 

How long does a driveway installation take from start to finish?

A typical driveway installation takes between three days and a week depending on the size of the area, the material, and weather conditions. Concrete driveways require 24-48 hours for pouring and at least 7 days for curing before use. Pavers and brick driveways take longer to install due to the precision required but don’t need curing time. 

What factors affect the cost of a driveway installation?

Several factors impact your driveway installation cost. Size and dimensions are primary – larger driveways require more materials and labor. Material choice significantly affects pricing. Site preparation costs increase if your property needs extensive grading, drainage solutions, or removal of an existing driveway. Design elements like borders, patterns, or stamping add to the final price. 

Do I need permits to install or replace a driveway?

Yes, most driveway installations require permits, especially when modifying curb cuts or connecting to public roads. The City of Dallas has specific regulations regarding driveway width, drainage requirements, and placement relative to property lines.

How do climate and weather affect which driveway material I should choose?

The hot and cold extremes of Dallas’ climate put regular wear and tear on driveways. Choose a material that can handles the weather here well. Concrete, for example, performs well in the hot Texas sun but can crack during occasional freezes without proper installation. Pavers and brick offer excellent performance in Dallas weather as their individual units allow for natural expansion and contraction.
