I WANT TO
WIDEN MY DRIVEWAY

Maybe you have purchased that boat you have been saving for or your teenagers are now driving. If you have outgrown your current driveway and thinking of doing an extension you need to consider a few things. 

Altering your driveway — no matter if it’s concrete or asphalt — you’ll want to consider its decorative factors as well so the driveway addition looks well planned.

 

The driveway material you choose is also a big factor to consider when you expand your drive. You would think it would be easy by just adding a stretch of additional concrete or asphalt may be the easiest approach, but you need to consider the age and weathering, there could be differences in colour between the original driveway and your expansion that can create an odd look. One way to solve this problem is to use a different material altogether, such as stamped concrete or brick pavers. That way you are not highlighting the differences.

 

While you may think its that easy to just widen your driveway another cost to consider is the cost of a permit. In some cities or towns paving or extending your driveway requires a permit. So don’t be surprised if this cost might be added to your bill.
