"Crew arrived on time, were very efficient, did a great job (no asphalt "oopsies"), left our project clean, and so far (2 months) the slurry is holding up better than expected compared to previous slurry jobs we've had completed. Project was private drive for 4 homes, about 4,000 sf. Crew cleaned driveway w/blower, sealed cracks, laid down quality slurry mix, and shaved down a couple asphalt bumps (due to buried pipes) to level out the FS. All-in-all a quality job and will look forward to having Landmark Paving come back in 3 years or so to repeat same."

"I got quotes from 4 different asphalt companies for the resurfacing of my 6,000 sq ft driveway. Mike Stanley the owner of Advanced Asphalt gave me a complete quote with the scope of work itemized into 8 items. He was professional and explained in detail everything he was going to do. Not only did he complete all 8 items but also did a bit more. He and his crew did a great job. Mike ran the equipment and was on the job each day. His crew was friendly and experience as well. When it was all done they cleaned the work area and left it looking better than before the work began. We love our new driveway and HIGHLY recommend Mike and Advanced Asphalt. We didn't realize until after the job was complete and our gate wouldn't open that while preparing the old asphalt for the new surface Mike cut through the electrical wires that provided power to our electric gate. It cost $650 to have it repaired and when I asked Mike to pay he thought that was too much. We asked him to bring in his guy to fix it at a better price and he didn't respond. So we offered to split the cost with him. His equipment caused the damage and we needed an operational gate. We have made three requests for payment and even though he said ok, and that he will be out, he has not shown up and has not sent the check. BE AWARE, if he damages your property when performing work on your property, he won't pay to have it fixed! Now I have to take him to small claims court and will do so for the full amount. A disappointing ending to what I thought was a good experience."

"Luke did a great job. Very responsive and made quick work of my driveway. Had some cracks the next day and can't right back out and filled them. Also said to let him know if we see anything else. We will be using them for our street next."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

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.

You can expect your asphalt pavement to last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, or 25 years on average. The life expectancy of your asphalt driveway depends on the climate, the amount of traffic, and how well you maintain it. While you can’t necessarily control some of these factors, you can control the amount of maintenance effort you put into your driveway. 

To prevent your asphalt from deteriorating prematurely, you should follow a good maintenance routine involving regular cleaning, reparation work, and resealing.

To ensure you hire a reliable and experienced paving company, you should start by finding companies in your area that have at least five to ten years of experience working in your neighborhood. Next, rule out companies with poor reviews online or a series of complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau. Since driveways affect your curb appeal, you should also ask each company for references and pictures of recent work to make sure the work the company does is professional and high quality. Finally, check that the company is licensed and insured.

New asphalt goes through two stages: drying and curing. Drying typically takes 24 to 72 hours, after which the surface is solid enough for light use like walking or careful driving. While you may be able to park on it after 72 hours, the surface is still soft and should be treated gently. Full curing is a much longer process, taking anywhere from 30 days to a full year for the asphalt to reach maximum strength. During this extended curing period, the asphalt is susceptible to damage from heavy vehicles, sharp objects, and high temperatures. Factors like weather, the specific asphalt mix, and application thickness all influence drying and curing times. For the most accurate timeline and to ensure the longevity of your new asphalt, it is always best to consult with your installation contractor for their specific recommendations.

Asphalt is made of aggregate materials (sand, rocks, and gravel) and bitumen, a viscous, petroleum-based, waterproof substance. These materials are mixed together at extremely high temperatures to form asphalt.
