"If we could give 10 stars we would. We needed to have an old driveway demolished and new pavement laid. We found George's Asphalt online through a vetting type of service when we were doing some research online about having a quality driveway put in. George's Asphalt came out and gave us their bid, so professionally. We hired them and they said job would take 3 days and they finished by noon on the 3rd day. The team works so well together and is so efficient. Our neighbors were so impressed that while they were working they asked for bids as well. If you are looking for an HONEST, RELIABLE, DEPENDABLE company for your asphalt needs, they also do concrete too, call George's Asphalt Paving. You won't be sorry and you will get top notch service and quality for a beautiful driveway or whatever your asphalt needs might be."

"Very much care to detail and neatness. All workers are top pro's in what they do to repairing cracks and holes and sealing for a final well put on product. Highly recommend them. A delight to watch them all work. In writing back I have cracks on almost very repair big and very small within next day. Also there is some that got on my edging of the walkway leading to front entrance door. They promise though they are very busy in the bay area,( although there was a prearrangement to look at it soon after but never came) They promised not to forget to do it over in cracks and to clean up when they are not so busy, but this was done in Nov. and a look would have verified that it cracked the day after. Its almost a year later and I'm Waiting for a do-over and cleanup on my edging next to home of home."

Driveway Sealcoating questions, answered by experts

A good rule for all homeowners is to seal every driveway to protect it. Wait at least three months to seal an asphalt driveway and one month to seal a concrete driveway. You know it’s time to reseal your driveway when it shows obvious signs of wear and tear. It may appear as fading or discolored asphalt, small cracks, and oil stains. If you notice that one area of your driveway seems to dry slower than others, it’s time to reseal.

To maintain your asphalt driveway, add a new coat of sealant every three to five years. Pricing varies, but you will pay about $0.08 to $0.50 per square foot from start to finish. You can also choose to add a fill-and-seal layer that includes a layer of aggregate to fortify a damaged top layer of asphalt.

It is not recommended to seal brand-new or uncured asphalt immediately after installation. You should wait at least three months to allow the asphalt time to cure. Applying a seal coat too soon can trap the asphalt's oils and chemicals, preventing it from fully hardening. This can lead to a weaker surface that is more vulnerable to damage. After the initial three-month curing period, applying a seal coat can extend the asphalt's life by protecting it from water, UV rays, and other damaging elements.

Depending on the product used, you should avoid using your driveway for 48 to 72 hours after sealing it. In general, water-based driveway sealers cure much faster compared to oil-based and solvent-based sealers. Some driveways are even ready in just four to five hours.

There are more pros than cons, but there are a few disadvantages to sealing your driveway to be aware of. Sealant can make the surface slippery, which can be a hazard, especially when the driveway gets wet. Look for sealants with abrasive additives to help counteract this. You’ll also need to remember to reapply your sealant every two years and budget for the expense that comes with it.
