I have a brand new home with a dirt driveway. I would like to install a paver driveway and walkway but don’t know if it would be wise to have the work done now, with freezing weather on the way. Should I wait for spring?

Craig, there is no reason to wait until spring to install paver hardscape. Properly laid pavers, with an appropriate base, can be laid in any season of the year. If you are worried about expansion/contraction of your soil, the joints between the properly installed pavers will allow the walkway, driveway or patio to move without cracking. In addition, pavers themselves are very resistant to damage from freeze/thaw cycles.
