"Went largely as expected. No real surprises. Although the initial cost was well exceeded 5k vs 10k. Slight disappointment a thorough cleaning was not assured. However experience had us procure a magnet from harbor freight tools to guarantee the driveway was nail free - and we did find nails. Otherwise O7 seemed competitive and did satisfactory work. Re-hire for another job, yes would at least allow consideration for bid. "
"Outstanding experience with Jim and team. We have had driveway issues since we first bought this house last year. Thanks to Asphalt Aces, those issues have been solved and we now have a beautiful 300ft driveway on our property leading up to the house. 10/10 would recommend."

The best ways to increase the lifespan of your driveway are to carry out proper maintenance and get repairs done quickly. First, reseal your driveway every one to three years to protect it from the elements. If you start to notice significant cracks, hire a professional to diagnose the problem before it gets more serious. You can also use sand instead of salt when de-icing your driveway (since salt is corrosive) and clean your driveway annually using a pressure washer to keep it in tip-top shape.
Chip seal lasts only 5 to 8 years on average. This lifespan is significantly shorter than asphalt. It is also less durable. Therefore, chip seal driveway only works if the traffic volume is extremely low. Chip seal is also less resistant to storms and hails. As impact builds up, the chips may become misplaced, creating an uneven driving surface that sometimes becomes hazardous and may damage your tires or cause your vehicle to lose balance.
DIY asphalt repair is feasible for small issues like cracks or potholes, provided you have the correct materials and tools. However, for more extensive damage or to ensure a durable, smooth surface and prevent further deterioration, engaging professional services is recommended for their expertise and long-lasting results.
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.
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.
