"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."

"I was so fortunate to have found Jesus Pantoja Landscaping to complete a project in my backyard. We started with uneven dirt and non blooming trees and finished with a paved courtyard and I couldn’t be happier with the finished product. Jesus Pantoja Landscaping is a family operation and they are terrific people with great work ethic he and his team were punctual, professional and are a joy to work with. I would highly recommend them for design, install, and maintenance to those who are particular and want outstanding service."

Driveway Sealcoating questions, answered by experts

The costs range from $0.15 to $0.50 per square foot, depending on the asphalt condition, sealant type, and labor.

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.

Driveway sealcoating costs around $500 on average, or between $1.25 and $1.50 per square foot for materials and labor. Most homeowners pay between $250 and $800 for this service. Your project price will depend mostly on the size of your driveway, the type of sealant, how much pressure washing or treatment is required before sealing, and the number of coats of sealant applied to your driveway. Most sealants come in 5-gallon or 55-gallon units, with up to 500 square feet of coverage per 4 gallons.

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.

It depends on the type of sealer. Some sealers can dry in as little as 4 hours, but many can take up to 48 hours to fully cure. To play it safe, don’t drive on your driveway for two days after sealing.
