I used Cost-Less Driveways and they did a great job. They did the driveway, entryway and Lanai over 2 days. Very happy with their work.

Decorative Concrete....but do a search on here for all the comments. We all love whoever did ours (otherwise we would have made a bad decision and who will admit that?). As the customers for their list of customers than make calls randomly to some on the list. The longer the list is also a clue since vendors tend to purge customers that might not be a good reference. If you see something you like while driving around stop and ring the doorbell and ask about it. Nothing beats due diligence. Of course if price is your driver then it doesn't matter.

Please don't have the driveway painted.
If there are contaminates present the painting might not last more than a couple of years. The best coating is an acrylic material similar to a thin concrete mixture. Several companies can do this type of coating, but my favorite is Florida Deck and Pool. They have an older Hispanic gentleman who is an artist at driveway designs. I first has stain (paint) that showed every tire mark and soon began to wear. It seems I was constantly scrubbing the tire marks off my driveway. I then had the acrylic application that never show tire marks and never requires washing and scrubbing.

I second Decorative Concrete. We were happy with Cliff and his crew. Took the time to explain the process and options. I agree with the other posters, if you see something you like stop and ask the owners. Most will be happy to talk about their drive!
