"All I can say is wow!!! Rick is easy to work with and provided a great design and even better finished product. He listened to what we wanted and came up with a plan for the front yard and side yard. Rick gave us a no pressure estimate and time to talk to other companies to compare. Method Paving was not the cheapest or the most expensive but we felt comfortable going with them because several friends had worked with Rick and loved the entire experience. They started on time and finished early and were efficient, considerate and very professional. Rick worked closely with the crews to ensure there would be no misunderstandings in regards to what we wanted. The demolition crew finished and CLEANED UP the first two days and the pavers were completed in 6 days! What I thought was going to take 2 weeks was completed in just 8 working days. Everardo left the yard clean and even swept the gutters and street so no dirt or mess was left in front of our house or the neighboring houses. Our neighbors were very impressed by the work and professionalism of Method Paving. We have had people stop by often and complement our driveway. I highly recommend Method Paving/Rick and would definitely have another job done by them! Truly a five-star company!"

They told me exactly how long it would take them and they finished the entire project on time and on budget. I highly recommend AGS Landscape for any project large or small."

"We had Alliance Interlocking Pavers replace our driveway and back patio. Carlos worked with us to special order stone that would work with our driveway and clearly explained the cost up front. The work was completed on time and his team was very helpful with small details that arise during the course of a project like this. We are extremely satisfied with how our driveway and patio look, and we now look at old pictures and wonder why we did not replace it sooner. Carlos was very responsive to requests and questions about the project throughout the process. Alliance Interlocking Pavers are true professionals, and we are looking forward to hiring them for more work in the future."

"The quality of the work is excellent, they were on time and honestly, they were up and wait until 8' o clock waiting for us so they can start the job. It was an exceptional quality work and people notice that we have great fences and that it was a really good work."

"Very professional project proposal, design and references. Excellent value from a contractor that's well established in the local community. Project was completed and met all project milestones. On-site crew was very responsive to design changes, and applied best practices to improve on the prior concrete surface layout and design. I'm confident the resulting concrete driveway and walkways will serve us well for many years."

"I just completed a job with Landscape Solutions in Los Gatos and wanted to share my experience with anyone who might be looking for a landscape company. Our project was a small yard with a combination of hard surface and the installation of artificial turf for our dogs. I was surprised how good it looks and the dogs seem to enjoy it as much as real grass. I interviewed a few companies and chose Landscape Solutions based on how easy they were to talk to and how transparent they were with their process including design and billing. The entire job went very smoothly. I changed a few things after we started, and they were upfront about how that would impact the time to completion and the cost. In both cases their estimates were accurate. Their pricing was competitive and given the quality of the finish product and the ease of working with them I found it to be very reasonable. The guys they had doing the work were very professional, polite, and easy to work with. They cleaned up after each days work and returned the next morning right on time. I appreciated that they were very respectful of my time and my home. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and I have already recommended them to a friend who may need work done in the future. They are a 5 star contractor. I highly recommend them."

Asphalt Driveways FAQs, answered by experts

The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your driveway ideas. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.

When comparing installation costs, asphalt is often less expensive upfront than concrete. Asphalt prices typically range from $7 to $15 per square foot, while concrete can range from $3 to $18 per square foot. However, long-term costs should also be considered. Concrete driveways generally last longer (up to twice as long) and require less maintenance, which can make them more affordable over their lifespan. While asphalt has a lower installation cost and is easier to repair, it requires more frequent maintenance, such as sealing, which can add up over time. Therefore, while concrete is more expensive initially, its durability may offset the cost in the long run.

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.

In most cases, you don’t need a permit to repave your driveway, although some exceptions exist. If you’re widening your driveway and plan on widening the apron as well, you’ll usually need a permit from the Department of Transportation in your area. This permit costs between $50 and $300 in most cases. Most municipalities will also require a certified and insured contractor do the work relating to the apron and curb cut. You can contact your building department or ask your paving company if you need a permit. Your driveway professional will usually pull the permit for you.

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.
