"Mr. Evans showed up promptly when scheduled to give us an estimate. We were surprised when he came in considerably lower than the other two estimates, so asked lots of questions to make certain we were all on the same page! He answered all questions and provided a detailed contract. He and his crew showed up for the work the first day the weather allowed. In one day, they tore out the old sidewalk, part of the driveway, and worked with us to set the forms so that we got the design for the new turnaround area and sidewalk. The next day they finished the tear-out and the rest of the forms. The crew showed up Saturday morning to pour the new concrete and worked all day, well into the evening to get the concrete poured, washed to expose the aggregate, and the inlet from the street poured and scored to match an existing concrete entry at the gate to our backyard. As promised, they came back on Monday to finish cleaning up the worksite, as it had been too late and dark to finish that on Saturday. We have a beautiful new driveway, scored cobblestone inlet from the street, turnaround area and sidewalk, and are completely delighted not only with the product, but also with our experience with this contractor. We have told all our friends and will recommend this company again and again! For once, we feel like we got our money's worth, plus some!"

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

There’s no single best asphalt grade—it all comes down to where and how it’s used. Highways and heavy-traffic roads need something tough, like polymer-modified asphalt (PMA) or Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA). Local roads and parking lots rely on the Performance Graded (PG) system, chosen based on climate. A PG 64-28 mix, for example, handles a broad temperature range while simpler, more cost-effective mixes are typically enough for residential driveways. The best grade of asphalt depends on traffic, weather, and your budget, which is why a professional’s input is always a smart move before making a decision.

It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting. 

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.

Asphalt and tarmac are not the same thing. Traditional tarmac, short for tarmacadam, uses tar as a binder to hold crushed stone together. Asphalt uses bitumen—a byproduct of crude oil—to bind aggregate. Though tarmac was once a go-to for roads, asphalt has become the modern standard. And these days, most surfaces referred to as “tarmac” are actually asphalt. So, while the names may overlap, the key distinction lies in the binder—tar for tarmac and bitumen for asphalt.

While the specific timeline for building a driveway can vary based on driveway length and local weather conditions, the average concrete driveway can require several days to lay down all of the different parts of the driveway. The curing process may require you to avoid using your driveway for a week following construction. Heavier vehicles should be kept off of a new concrete driveway for several weeks. Building a gravel driveway may take just one to two days in total.
