"Excellent work! We had over 2600 square feet of driveway done in pavers. The old driveway was concrete - Westcape removed it and installed pavers. The attention to detail was excellent - very impressive. The crew was friendly, polite and professional. I was very impressed."

"Hector and his crew did an incredible job in transforming our backyard from a sand pit to a beautiful desert oasis. Shortly after his crew finished their work, the first hummingbird arrived to inspect all the colorful new flowers! We are so very pleased with the results and are looking forward to enjoying the yard, whether sitting outdoors or viewing it from the inside the house. Hector was very easy to work with, listened to what we wanted, and designed the perfect back yard for us. We highly recommend him."

"One of the best companies I ever hired...a year after sealing my driveway, they returned and resealed it at no charge based on some faulty asphalt during the paving. Gus is a true professional with the highest level of integrity, honesty and customer care."

"Everyone we dealt with at System Pavers was helpful, friendly, and very good at their jobs. The salesman suggested a different color pavers than we'd been thinking of for the driveway, and he was absolutely right! The crew doing the work did a great job. They really knew their stuff. We're very happy with the results."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

An ideal driveway gradient is between 2% and 5%. Anything lower than 1% or higher than 15% can cause problems for your car or property. A driveway with less than a 1% slope increases your likelihood of flooding and water damage, while a driveway with a 15% grade or higher can be too steep for safe traveling.

Concrete is typically the best material for a driveway if you’re looking for longevity, cost-effectiveness, and ease of maintenance. But, it’s not ideal for areas with annual freeze-frost cycles, nor is it the most attractive option—although you can get it stamped or painted. If your location is consistently below freezing, asphalt may be a better choice.

Like all driveway materials, asphalt can crack in the wrong conditions and with age. Many things can cause asphalt to crack, including shifting soil or settling under the foundation. Other common causes are driving oversized vehicles on the asphalt, tree roots, and using rock salt during the snowy season. Proper installation and sealing the driveway every 10 years can help prevent cracks.

New asphalt typically needs 24 to 72 hours to dry before it can handle light foot traffic and careful driving. Although it may appear solid after a few days, the full curing process, where the asphalt reaches its peak strength, takes much longer—generally from 30 days to a year.

During this extended curing time, the surface remains relatively soft and can be damaged by heavy vehicles, sharp objects, or high temperatures. To protect your investment, it's best to avoid parking heavy machinery on the asphalt until it has fully cured.

The exact time required for drying and curing depends on several factors, including the weather, the specific asphalt mix, and its thickness. For the most accurate advice tailored to your situation, consult with your asphalt contractor.

The cost to replace a driveway ranges from $8 to $15 per square foot, depending on factors that include material, size, and labor. If your driveway has deep cracks, potholes, or drainage issues (or if it’s simply past its prime), replacement might be the smarter investment over constant repairs. Resurfacing can be a cheaper alternative at $3 to $20 per square foot, but it won’t fix your driveway’s underlying problems.
