"I've been meaning to get back here to tell people about these guys. I hired Nixon for two jobs. The first was to replace an attic vent that was installed god-knows how long ago plus replace a bit of trim and to re-anchor my gutters in the back which had come undone. Nixon is METICULOUS and neat as a pin. The only evidence work was done made itself known as about 5 or 10 grams of sawdust making up a small pile in the driveway. the attic vent replacement involved (apart from locating a matching vent that was originally placed back in the '80s...) a bit of carpentry and painting. It was all very neatly done and the entire job was executed flawlessly. Later, I hired him to paint and repair my deck - same story: meticulous painting and flawless work. I couldn't say enough good things about this guy. I will definitely hire him again. Definitely."

"I cannot express enough praise and appreciation for a job well done. The front of my house now looks beautiful. After removing the old asphalt driveway and concrete walkway and stoops, pavers were installed on the driveway with a Belgian block apron as well as pavers on the walkway with a darker color border around both. Two concrete stoops and stairs were rebuilt, expanding one and topping both with blue stone on top and stone veneer on the sides. Each step of the way, from proposal to completion, Alex was helpful, pleasant, polite, knowledgeable, honest, fair with pricing and a great communicator. His crew is very skilled, hard working and punctual - they cleaned up every day. I had interviewed and received quotes from 9 other contractors, and I am happy I decided on No. 10: Alex Masonry."

"I hired Ben's to put in a Paver Walkway in our backyard from our driveway to our porch and wrap around the porch on 3 sides which really enhances the porch and keeps the rain from splashing mud onto the sliding glass doors. We were new to using Paver's so we needed help with patterns that work vs patterns that look great in Catalog's and we received a lot of assistance and gained knowledge with this product. Ended up doing a herringbone pattern and we were very glad we had help in retrospect. The guys doing to work were always on time and courteous plus they always left the work site clean at night when they left. The patio looked so good we then hired Ben's to do a similar walkway in the fron of the house, and had them reface our chimney which looks gorgeous, again we asked for and received help with picking options when it came to material because we preferred granite over brick and they made our small little boring chimney look like a show piece. I would recommend Ben's in a heartbeat to someone doing work of this kind. We were very pleased with the entire experience - both times."

Asphalt Driveways questions, answered by experts

The choice between asphalt and concrete depends on your priorities, budget, and climate.

Concrete is generally more durable, lasting up to 50 years with minimal upkeep, and offers more customization options like staining and stamping, which can add more to a home's value. However, it is more expensive upfront and can be prone to cracking in cold climates where water can freeze and expand.

Asphalt is typically cheaper and quicker to install and is easier to repair. It performs better in colder climates. However, it requires more maintenance, including regular resealing, has a shorter lifespan, and can get hot and sticky in intense sunlight.

Ultimately, if durability and long-term value are key, concrete is often the better choice. If upfront cost and performance in cold weather are more important, asphalt may be preferable.

Yes, recycled asphalt driveway costs can be substantially lower than new asphalt. With new asphalt costing between $90 and $190 per ton, this option can cost as much as 10 times more than laying down asphalt millings.

It takes recycled asphalt 48 hours to initially harden and up to 3 months to fully cure. It’s best to stay off of recycled asphalt for at least 48 hours, then you can walk or drive standard vehicles on it. Hold off on driving heavy trucks or equipment on it for at least 7 days. Allowing the surface to melt together and harden ensures that the surface stays durable and long-lasting. 

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.

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.
