"I hired Buddy's Blacktop for a small half circle asphalt driveway project. Buddy and his hardworking crew of five arrived on time, as scheduled with modern and clean equipment. They did an exceptional, high quality paving project to include a superb final clean-up of the entire work area. I was at first thinking a large company would turn down a small job like this, but Buddy assured me that he will take on both small and large projects. I recommend them for your asphalt driveway needs"

"They were very easy to work with and communicated well. We suffered weather problems and Asphalt availability problems in Foley which delayed the project. In the end they had to haul the asphalt from Mobile but never complained. They do have to come back at some time in the future to finish an area that became a mud hole. As the drive was a little narrow than the old drive ( at my request) I needed to add some dirt fill along some of the edges. Frank offered to haul me some dirt in, I just had pay for the dirt, and he and his crew spread it for me at no extra charge. Great customer service."

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

An asphalt driveway should be at least 3 inches thick over a compacted gravel base. Areas with poor drainage should have a thicker stone base. To install a new asphalt driveway over an existing driveway, the new asphalt should be at least 2 inches thick and the existing driveway should be in relatively good condition.

A traditional driveway gate isn’t your only option when installing a barricade in front of your driveway. A security gate like a swing gate, double swing gate, bi-folding gate, vertical gate, or pivot gate could work just as well as your driveway gate—if not better for your home depending on which qualities you’re after. Like sliding driveway gates, many of these alternatives work with automatic features that simplify entering and exiting your property.

Decomposed granite and caliche can both harden into a solid surface using a plate compactor. However, due to decomposed granite’s fine particles, it’s not suitable for driveway surfaces. Some homeowners use pea gravel mixed with a gravel-binding resin to bind the loose stones and create a solid surface that won’t shift like loose gravel.

While blacktop is a type of asphalt, the terms should not be used interchangeably, as not all asphalt qualifies as blacktop. The primary differences are in their composition, production process, and ideal applications. Blacktop contains more stone than other types of asphalt and is heated to a higher temperature during production—300°F or more—while hot-mix asphalt is heated to between 275°F and 300°F. The ratio of bitumen (a tar-like crude oil) is a key differentiator, though sources vary: some state blacktop has less bitumen, making it less durable, while others claim it has a higher ratio. Due to these differences, asphalt is generally more durable and better for high-traffic areas like highways and streets, while blacktop is more suitable for playgrounds and residential driveways. For a driveway project, it is best to consult a professional to determine the most appropriate material.

Asphalt dries and cures best between 50 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. This range allows moisture to evaporate quickly without causing the asphalt to cool too fast, which can negatively affect the drying process. However, keep in mind that other weather conditions can also affect curing and drying times, such as precipitation and humidity.
