5 years ago we used Driveways by Jay, he was even able to come back and match the pattern 2 years alter when we expanded the driveway. Unfortunately I think he is no longer in business. I am posting this just in case I am wrong, as I will highly recommend his work.

We have spent three weeks looking at too many driveways to include pavers, 3" and 6", painted, etc. We finally decided on Ram Design, if you want a custom driveway, one of a kind. The owner is a gentleman name Carlos Rodriquez who is an artist. He will come to your home and talk to you about your design and help you enhance it. The only problem is the wait is approximately one year. If you plan on keeping your home good choice. If you are going to flip it in a couple of years paint it.

That driveway you pictured was done by Carlos Ramirez of Custom Ram Design.

Custom Ram Design, Inc. - Ocala, Fl.
(352)-427-0833

There is an online photo gallery at that site.
There is quite a long waiting list.

Default Drivewy coatings - Two types of coating??

I've heard there is paint and then something better that lasts and holds up much better / obviously more expensive. Anyone have feedback on rough pricing for a 2 + golf cart driveway?

Our textured drive was done 10 years ago so price won’t do you any good. But a reseal is $1,100. For 3 car drive. We didn’t pay for original, but just the upkeep cost is not worth it for us.

We did a 1/8" concrete overlay on our driveway 10 years ago by a company called ArtistiCrete. It was a bad experience because they used the wrong colors and the surface had color bands, was mottled and spalling -- and it was expensive! Very disappointed. We just recently had it all ground off and went with a new painted driveway design. Choose wisely -- and check all references!

Check with BBB about company you used originally.
